What do you think? Do you like the Longmire TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a fourth season?
Well, this is about the time (going into the 4th season) when the actors start wanting a little more money. Maybe A&E did not want to pay them that much..That being said, I hate to see the show go, I, like many others did not miss an episode…
are you kidding me, i love that show, it was one of the shows you could watch with your family, what a&e not enough sex or t&a in it for you, ********
the people at AE are complete ******** for cancelling one of the best programs on tv
I agree
This is a great western one one of the only westerns on tv. Please be encouraged to find another network. With all the bad press created by A&E last year, I think it has allowed several people to just change the channel, or never give them a shot.
If another network picks up this quality, Great show it could go forward. They damaged their network image and in time it should be restored with good programs, just not now.
Great show!!!!! What are you thinking A&E?
WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH A&E!!???? One of the best shows on television and they cancel it? If they don’t bring it back for a 4th season, then they deserve to go down in flames!!!!!
I concur. There is so much garbage on TV. Why cancel a successful show like Longmire. It defies logic.
Y ou’re making a big mistake! This show was great,never missed an episode. If not home ,we recorded it. Last year it was “Glades”,never thought this would happen. Maybe FX or USA or TNT could pick them up. I can’t believe that “Duck Dynasty” is still on, I think it’s time to clean house in upper management at A&E.
WITH ALL THE VERY BAD SHOWS ON TV WHY WOULD ANYONE CANCEL ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS???? THIS MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL. THE SHOW WAS INTERESTING, INTELLIGENT AND WELL WRITTEN. AT LEAST PRODUCE A 2 HOUR FINAL EPISODE SO WE FANS CAN FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS WITH BRANCH, VIC AND WALT . I WAITED FOREVER TO SEE THESE EPISODES. PART OF THE PROBLEM IS TOO LONG IN BETWEEN THE SHOWS. A &E DON’T DISAPPOINT THE VERY PEOPLE WHO SUPPORT THIS STATION.
So very little well written shows on TV, this should stay. Love this show. I don’t like all the reality shows that are on.
We love this show! This show should be renewed. There are so many stupid, IQ lowering reality shows on the air right now and not a lot of good entertaining shows to watch such as this one. LOVE LONGMIRE & it’s cast.
This show was such a refreshing change from the usual programming on cable. I thoroughly enjoyed all of the well casted episodes. Was nice to have a western where you could actually hear the dialogue, not drowned out by background noise. It is a travesty that in today’s TV marketplace a spot might not be found for this program. Am really disappointed with A & E’s decision to cancel. They should be ashamed.

This is the best show on T.
This is the best show on TV, cable or otherwise!! Please, someone pick this up!
Please renew this show. It is one of the BEST shows on tv. There is so much garbage on tv this is a breath of fresh air.
I agree, they always cancel the good shows. the owners of A& E are all liberals, so cleans shows , I guess don’t make them happy. I was shocked they didn’t cancel Duck Dynasty but they make them a lot of money. please, bring Longmire to another network, especially after the cliffhanger.
Please keep your cheesy political statements to yourself…Must you people always insert your political motivations into “every conversation”?
THIS SHOW SHOULD BE RENEWED IT APPEARS TO BE THE ONLY DECENT PROGRAM THIS STATION HAS
