And showrunner Jeff Rake thanked the cast, the crew, and the fans for everything. Earlier, Rake revealed his plans for season three:
A proper thank you would be way too long for Twitter. So, briefly, to the cast, the crew, the writers, the fans, I am so grateful. Truly.

What do you think? Did you watch The Mysteries of Laura? Are you sad it’s over?
I just can’t believe that it was cancelled right during a moment everybody was waiting for! At least let the show do a finale episode so the right thing can happen! Give fans a closure! It really sucks that this show was cancelled. I loved everything about all the characters and the story! Forever sad.
Why? This was a great show……really hated being left in the lurch with Jake getting engaged to someone else!!! Even the return of Will and Grace doesn’t satisfy my loss of this show!! Way to go NBC ….NOT!!!
Why would you in your right mind ever decide to get rid of this show???? It is so good… the story lines WERE awesome and the show is absolutely funny!!! Very disappointed… I know my opinion doesn’t matter but, whoever you are that made the decision to cancel… BIG MISTAKE, BIG!!!!
I love the show. I want them to stay on.
I did hate watch this show a couple times. It’s one of the worst shows I ever saw. I can’t believe it even got picked up to run 1 season
Love this show! Love the characters, the storylines, the writing, the chemistry with the actors! This was the only NBC show I watched. Do not watch NBC at all now.
I can not believe that this show is cancelled !!! Funny plot lines and real life situations that we could all laugh at. Mysteries without being gory and gross. A show that I could laugh at and not have to change the channel when my nine year old came in the room. We need more shows like this and less reality shows. Life has enough reality without Hollywood faking it for us on television.
They keep the ****** shows that are horrible and cancel the shows that are really good shows, great acting, writing…. I don’t get it but there’s a reason people are leaving the networks…. And why I just got Netflix! (Longmire etc)
I am so sad,,, I have been waiting and waiting this show brought our whoke family tigether at the tv… No video games just waiting to see what woukd happen next… I can not believe such a great show shut down…. Please bring it back please….
I am not big on tv, but finally found something with clean humor, mysteries, and love all in one. I hate that The Mysteries of Laura is going off air. I hope it airs on a different channel or has its own app or something. Whoever takes that series on will have a lot of fans. You guys that decided not to put it on air have lost a lot of fans.
This completely stinks!!! It was such a terrific show, great mysteries, incredible dynamic, and loved how it showed her home life!! Shame for cancelling this, It was very unique – Not everything is a reality show showing boobs and too many tears!!
Please consider bringing back The Mysteries of Laura!! It IS my favorite show!! Loved the cast, they meshed so well with each other!! It was wholesome & funny, but had its serious moments as well! Absolutely Love Debra Messing & Josh Lucas… & their chemistry together was spot on!!
Please Reconsider!!
Im binge watching it now. There were some things that bothered me. Soto and Bose had no chemistry and they end up together randomly. Jake constantly forcing Laura to forgive him for cheating on her. The show never really goes into detail of the affair. Sometimes they have one liners that sound forced and out of place. What happened to Bose and Laura’s rivalry?
