It looks like there won’t be a fifth season for the Mr. Selfridge TV series. “It’s the last series,” co-star Amanda Abbington reportedly told What’s On TV, “We won’t be doing any more, which will be really sad because it’s been a part of my life for four years.” While ITV hasn’t confirmed or denied Abbington’s statement, last year series creator Andrew Davies said, “It was always conceived of as four series.”
Mr. Selfridge follows flamboyant businessman Harry Selfridge (Jeremy Piven) who decides to build the biggest and finest department store in the world at the “dead end” of Oxford Street in London. In addition to Piven and Abbington, the series stars Frances O’Connor, Katherine Kelly, Gregory Fitoussi, Aisling Loftus, and Trystan Gravelle.
The third season of Mr. Selfridge, which airs on PBS here in the States, is currently airing. The show has already been renewed for a fourth season of 10 episodes. They’re expected to begin airing next year.
What do you think? Do you like the Mr. Selfridge TV series? Do you think it should end after four seasons?
I love Selfridges – We all know it ends sadly however it is a wonderful show – please dont end it.
I believe the series is good, and I was always on the edge of my seat as to what was happening, etc.
Quality TV, and thankfully no commercials! Nice work PBS

ilove another season of Jeremy Piven’s selfridges.
I know he looses his fortune in his real life, but I felt more of a summation of his future should have been in the end of the series..including what became of his children. Disappointed if this was the ending..may not Ned a whole season..but a 2 hour wrap up sure would have been greatly appreciated after watching it for 4 seasons!
Love the show! Keep going!
“Last year series creator Andrew Davies said, “It was always conceived of as four series.” Is that cast in stone or are there other considerations? These cancellations, for whatever reason(s), too often affect the best of the best of TV programming. Excellent cast and writing plus whatever goes on behind the scenes – meaning the hard working people who make it happen.
I LOVE MR SELFRIDGE, I LOVE JEREMY PIVEN.
YES 6
I were shocked not to see mr. Selfridg aired on pbs. It was even more dissappointing for the station not to announce such changes. I hope they start it again as it is such a classic and interesting story to watch.
If there is more on the life of Mr. Selfridge, then a season 5 would be fabulous
I love Mr. SELFRIDGE! PLEASE KEEP IT GOING!!!
no it should not end, the story line is not complete and I just love the show, please reconsider.
I think the quality of the program is excellent.if viewer interest is still there in fourth season
Why not go o n.
I love Selfridge’s. It is a great show! Isn’t it based on a true story? It would be a shame if they cancelled!
It is a true story. But it ends somewhat tragically. Maybe it’s for the best. idk
THIS SHOW IS SUPERB, Please don;t cancel it. The cast meshes so well together and produce such a believable story line that I would hate to see it end.
