Based on the “Walt Longmire” mystery novels by Craig Johnson, Longmire has been a very successful TV series for A&E in the ratings. Will that trend continue? Will the show be cancelled or renewed for a fourth season? Stay tuned!
Longmire follows the life of a Wyoming county sheriff who’s returned to work following his wife’s demise. With the support of his family and co-workers, he solves cases and works to stay in office. The cast includes Robert Taylor, Katee Sackhoff, Bailey Chase, Adam Bartley, Cassidy Freeman, and Lou Diamond Phillips.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

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?
I love the show longmire and you are saying netflex picked it up but the problem is that everybody doesn’t have netflex and everybody can’t afford to have netflex
Longmire – best TV show. Why do they cancel the best shows???????
Big mistake in cancelling Longmire!!! GREAT WESTERN!! Who ever did this should be fired! .
Be a long time before I watch A&E again. What does age have to do if a show has high ratings? Just shows you how these so called executives know best not the viewing audience!!! BRING “LONGMIRE” BACK!!
A&E did cancel Longmire in Aug. 2014 but Netflix picked it up in Nov. 2014. They are currently filming season 4 in New Mexico through the end of June. Netflix puts all episodes of a season up at once so all 10 episodes of Longmire season 4 should be up for streaming on Netflix in early Fall. A&E’s loss is Netflix’s and our gain. We now get Longmire commercial free and more actual content per episode. Netflix doesn’t care about the age of it’s subscribers.
bring back Longmire
renew it…renew it renew it
A&E cancelled Longmire back in August. Luckily Netflix decided to pick it for season 4 in November. They started filming S4 March 23rd and will be filming through June. S4 should be available exclusively on Netflix in the Fall.
bring back lingmire
Just goes to show ya, tv people think that human imagination coupled with no sex, bad language, & nudity just don’t mix. It’s more suspenseful this way. Now I’m no prude, but I’m not in need of the lack of family values and am in interested in a program with a true moral compass. A & E should find theirs and bring back Longmire.
bring back Lnngmire
The network has lost their minds, not renewing a successful series? Really? Best to remember that we boomers still have our clout!
Huge mistake, huge…
Can’t believe that A&E canceled Longmire (Season 4)! I have other people watching the first 2 seasons on Netflix and they love it! Why can they not see that shows need to build their audience! I am disappointed!
One of my favorite shows….Blue Bloods being top favorite….hate “reality shows,” don’t/won’t watch them. Longmire is proof that good and interesting TV Shows can be make….most networks only interested in CHEAP to make, i.e., “reality.”
I am so glad that Longmire is coming out for the 4th season can’t wait for season 3 to be on Netflix.
PLEASE DO NOT cancel Longmire; it is one of the best programs on T.V. It seems as if a program is decent, not showing nudity or suggestive comments, it is cancelled. Why???? Can’t we, who enjoy a wholesome program, have something we enjoy? Congrats to Robert Taylor and all the cast for giving us three seasons of great T.V.
When will we know if Longmire will be renewed?
Netflix picked it up for a fourth season.
:-). :-). :-). Ya. 🙂
Definitely it should be renewed. The characters are interesting and the storylines have so many directions they can go that it would be totally ignorant to discontinue a series with such a loyal following. I am still unhappy with A and E for how they ended the series Everglades. I think the programmers at A and E should be more in tune with their viewers. I look for this network to be more creative and daring with what they produce. They let me down badly with the Longmire decision. I think they are over populating their network with reality series.
Love the. Show…
We dumped TV 4 years ago because of idiotic “reality” TV, now we watch what we want with Netflix, LOVE Longmire ! Dislike A & E and other ‘s for stupid commercials and for not caring about good TV.
They just don’t know how to schedule a decent show and keep it. The crap on there now is just that CRAP.
