The mystery is over. Deadline reports NBC has cancelled The Mysteries of Laura after two seasons.
The crime drama starred Debra Messing as an NYPD homicide detective struggling to raise her young sons as a single mom. Josh Lucas, Laz Alonso, Janina Gavankar, Max Jenkins, Callie Thorne, and Med Steedle also starred.
The cancellation is a little surprising. The Mysteries of Laura held consistently decent ratings over the course of its second season, receiving an average of 1.11 in the 18-49 demo and a total of 6.973 million viewers.
NBC has also cancelled several of their series, including the freshman comedy Telenovela and the live sitcom Undateable.
What do you think? Did you watch The Mysteries of Laura? Are you sad it’s been cancelled?
Very disappointed that show was cancelled. It was refreshing and different, not the same old story! Seems the really good series get cancelled these days.
Don’t understand the reasoning…..
Yes my husband and I are very disappointed that the show will not be on for a third season…..NBC needs to rethink their poor judgement on cancelling the show……Also not happy @ all with CBS for cancelling Mike and Molly very bad move on their part, Mike and Mol could have been the next Cheers! And as for TMO Laura we will miss it very much also! Very disappointed and upset with both networks! And a BIG thumbs Down to whoever’s idea it was to cancel both shows!!!
I was really looking forward to season three. I was left hanging. Not happy.
I really enjoyed this show and can’t understand why they would cancel the series! I think the network should give it another chance!
I just started season 2 on Netflix. Please, please bring us Season 3,4,5 etc. Why do you keep getting rid of great entertainment for the family? It’s not fair!! All for your bottom line?
Please, bring back a witty, well-written cop show with a heart!
This has been one of the BEST Crime dramas out there!!! YOU NEED TO BRING IT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE LOVE IT AND WANT TO AT LEAST see the family back together and all is well ending!! To well written to just DROP!!
I really upset this show was cancelled. I enjoyed the cast, I really love Debra Messer. She is so funny.
Please bring the show back, there is nothing else on Wednesday nights. NBC yr taking away all my shows.
NBC made a huge Mistake. No wonder I have to pay the astronomical cable bills in order to finds shows worth watching.
Hey NBC did you notice ALL comments are positive and want Mysteries of Laura back? Or maybe you DON’T notice or care! I’m done with NBC except for Days of our Lives
I am so disappointed that this show is cancelled!!! Just started watching this last season and loved it!
My family and I love Mysteries of Laura! PLEASE bring Laura back
Saddened this show has been cancelled, I liked each episodes and, the characters in the show. I really enjoyed Laura’s rationale as she uncovered the guilty party. It upsets me that mindless reality shows stay on forever with millennia’s watching daily (like they really need a boost of idiocy) and we baby boomers, flip channels to find classy TV entertainment…..
BRING MYSTERIES OF LAURA BACK!!!
This was such a great show. Well written, great actors. Such an intelligent step up from a lot of shows on right now, such as the terrible ‘reality’ shows that keep getting picked up each season. Hope another network has the smarts to bring Laura back.
This was our favorite show! How can you let Jake get engaged just when Laura tells him she loves him and then just end the series? Typical TV executives just don’t care about the viewer, only the bucks. So sad NBC.
