TV show description:
Created by Steven Bochco and Eric Lodal, this crime series follows a pair of San Francisco homicide detectives. Hildy Mulligan (Kathleen Robertson) is a single mother to inquisitive six-year-old Louise (Mimi Kirkland). In addition to work, Terry English (Taye Diggs) struggles to take care of his terminally ill wife.
English and Mulligan work with District Attorney Sonia Perez (Nicole Ari Parker), Inspector David Molk (Raphael Sbarge), and Lieutenant Jim Koto (Ian Anthony Dale), the squad’s no-nonsense supervisor.
The series begins as English and Mulligan are investigating a pair of seemingly unrelated murders. It turns out that both victims have ties to Silicon Valley wunderkind Erich Blunt (Tom Felton).

What do you think? Do you like the Murder in the First TV series? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a fourth season?
Please DO NOT CANCEL Murder in the First, it is a great show and a great cast. I like that the murder is not solved in one hour like most shows!!!
I can’t believe getting cancelled very good show poor decision to cancel.
I wish you would bring back the show. I was shocked to find out the program was cancelled. The whole cast was terrific.
Please bring back a season 4….Television is missing quality programs like this….This is such a mistake for the fans and this network…Best writing and best cast. Who else can we write to? Please let the people who can make this happen know!
How can you cancel such a great summer show! I’m very disappointed!
Bring it back
Murder In The First was a great show. This was another stupid move by people catering to the demographic that doesn’t really watch TV.
The show had plenty of room for continuation. Realistic and compelling, although some of the sex scenes were unnecessarily explicit. (The English handle that subject much better).
What Mac said!!!!!!!!
Once again, some out of touch over paid exec pulled plug on as said better by others a great show. Characters perfectly matched with great actors. The storyline changed each season but with a pinch of carryover. TNT really confusing at number of good series they’ve closed and rather quickly. Understand the business side but why put these shows on period if such short test. Guess we’ll get more Law and Order reruns like that’s not being done to death on several other networks. O well, our loss and yours too TNT
EVERYONE OF THE SHOWS I LOVE ON TNT THEY CANCEL THATS BS THINKING ABOUT NOT WATCHING TNT ANYMORE WHEN U GET INTO A SERIES THEY CANCEL
NO!!!! Oh please reconsider…..this was one of the best shows on the air….I’m so upset….Loved it and the cast was fantastic….WHY?? Screw the ratings…Everything else on the air that supposedly is big hit is so sleezy and or gruesome….I’m not sure what audience they’re playing to but this was a great show with the best writing and always such interesting guest stars….Maybe another network will pick it up….This is terrible…. I believe this is a serious error in judgment cancelling this show!!
I’m VERY disappointed to hear that Murder in the First was cancelled. It was one of my favorites and I enjoyed the characters and their lives. I really wish it would keep going. Please reconsider
I am so disappointed that Murder in the First has been cancelled. I enjoyed this
show and it’s good story line and chemistry between the characters. Too bad TNT wouldn’t reconsider.
This is an excellent show with good chemistry, course anything done by SB is great
You are cancelling shows that in our opion should not be.
Wow, this was an excellent series. I enjoyed seeing each season build upon the last with these characters. These people also drew me in and I really liked them. Bummed I have learned though not to become invested with series because the good ones always get cancelled and the cheap series remain.
Well said. Should’ve read yours first. You said better than I.
