ABC Family is breaking up with Melissa & Joey. The cable channel has cancelled the sitcom after four seasons.
On Melissa & Joey, up-and-coming local politician Melanie Burke (Melissa Joan Hart) hires recently divorced commodities broker Joe Longo (Joey Lawrence) as a nanny for her niece and nephew (Taylor Spreitler and Nick Robinson). Mel and Joe eventually fell in love and in season three, they were married.
The cast and crew are still filming the show’s fourth season and will wrap next week. A statement from ABC Family notes “The comedy will conclude its storyline at the end of the fourth season, to air later this summer.”
ABC Family’s new Executive Vide-President of Programming and Development, Karey Burke, said, “We are proud of the milestones Melissa & Joey has achieved, being the network’s first sitcom to reach 100 episodes and the network’s first comedy to win a People’s Choice Award… Now that the kids are grown and Mel and Joe have married and are looking towards starting a family, it seemed like a natural time to bring the series to a close. We are grateful to (stars) Melissa Joan Hart and Joey Lawrence and the whole cast and crew who worked so hard on this successful show.”
By the time, the series comes to an end, more than 100 episodes of Melissa & Joey will have been produced. The 100th installment, which airs March 18th, will serve as the mid-season finale.
What do you think? Do you like the Melissa & Joey TV show? Do you think that it should be ending or would you have watched a fifth season?

Please do not cancel Melissa and Joey. It is a wonderful show.
Keep the show! I love watching it … even my husband wants to know what happens next. Watching this show has actually helped me thru some things in my life and I value the advice given in the show. Please bring back Melissa & Joey!
I absolutely Love the show and would love to keep watching!
I love this show so much. I would definitely watch season 5 all the way to season 10. Please don’t cancel. Bring Melissa and Joey back.
I just caught up and finished season 4 and was devastated when there was going to be no season 5.. you can’t just end it with Mel pregnant with twins and Zander and Lennox engaged. You have to finish it. Don’t cancel it.. :'(
I had just caught up on all the episodes and to hear that the show is cancelled was heartbreaking. I was looking forward to how Lennox and Zanders wedding turned out and how Joe and Mel worked out everything from the twins, her running for congress, and the book tour. An audience should not be left hanging in the midst of new things happening. Please bring the show back.
They need to bring Melissa and Joey back. Ive been waiting for new episodes and didn’t know they planned on canceling this show. I love it and was so excited to see Mel and Joey having a baby and wanted to see what happens with Mel running for congress women. Please bring it back!!! 🙁
