Happy trails. ABC has cancelled Nashville after four seasons, Deadline reports.
The country music drama, which stars Hayden Panettiere and Connie Britton, is currently nearing the end of its fourth season.
The cancellation comes as a bit of a surprise. Only a few weeks ago, we reported new showrunners Ed Zwick and Marshall Herskovitz were getting the writer’s room ready for season five and hopeful ABC would renew the series.
However, ratings have dropped over the course of the show’s fourth season. So far, Nashville is earning an average rating of .98 in the 18-49 demo and 4.221 million viewers. Comparatively, the third season averaged a 1.34 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 5.16 million total viewers.
The season four, and now series, finale of Nashville airs on May 25th.
What do you think? Do you watch Nashville? Do you think the series should’ve been renewed?
I love this show. Very disappointed!
I love Nashville. Please reconsider. Lots of great actors and the music is amazing
Soooo sad. John Snow came back on GoT-why can’t Nashville? Come on guys…..it was one of the best series on TV not to mention one of my favorites.
Oh no! I love this show. Please reconsider!!
I look forward to Wednesday night and Nashville -It gives me JOY Music is great ! This saddens me…
My husband and I watch Nashville together. Love the music. Why cancel such a great show? Please listen to your viewers, leave it on!
Love “Nashville” I was in Nashville last week for vacation and did the “ABC Nashville” tour which was VERY popular. I love this show and do NOT want to see it canceled. Please bring “Nashville” back for another season.
I have never felt compelled enough to weigh in on a show being cancelled. But Nashville is one of the few shows I actually watch weekly, instead of waiting to consume it once it hits Netflix.
I feel like my small voice will make little difference, but still feel the need to add to the others, with the faintest of hopes that someone will hear.
Great show and cast. I will miss my extended family.
lOVE THE SHOW. Hate to see it go.
My wife and I love Nashville please don’t cancel it!!!!
I think no one wants to watch it because they are pushing the liberal agenda to much.plus the constant back and forth of the relationships of the characters. Too much crap.I know that’s why I quit watching last year year.my wife is in a panic but I’m glad it’s ending.just my opinion though.
Guess us old folks don’t matter. That’s the one show I do like to watch
I love Nashville! Please don’t cancel it and leave us all wondering what happens between Rayna and her daughter. This has been my favorite show every year. I’m not in the 18-49 yr. age range. I’m a Senior citizen, I love the music and the storylines.
Please don’t cancel Nashville.
Soooo bummed to hear this! I love watching Nashville!
