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?
NOOOOOOO!!!!! PLEASE DON’T CANCEL. i LOVE IT!!! BRING IT BACK!!!
I can’t believe Nashville has been cancelled!!! This is one of the best shows of television! Im really hoping the series will pick back up:/
Don’t cancel Nashville! My whole family loves it! And to leave us hanging at the end is just terrible. It was a perfect ending until Avery heard that news. PLEASE BRING IT BACK!!!!
Very very upset that Nashville is canceled. It seriously was my favorite show and I watch a lot!! This makes me sick ABC!!!
I feel it was a mistake to take like a 3 week hiatus in the middle of a season. It seemed every season they would do this. I never knew when to expect it.
Very disappointed that Nashville was cancelled. I never watch it on Wednesdays. I watch it on Hulu. Are you pulling rates from Hulu and other dreaming channels? Sad day!
ABC disappoints again, another good show being cancelled. But continue to keep shows like the Bachelor, shallow mindless viewing.
Nashville should have another chance it’s a very good show. Maybe trying it on a different night as you do so many other shows before canceling it. At least give it a season 5 instead of letting the characters hang in air
I love the show Nashville and I can’t believe the ratings were bad enough to cancel the show after only four seasons. It wasn’t advertised enough, I had not heard of the show until season 2 and had to power watch to catch up and then wait in agony to find out what will happen the next week. I am sad. ABC SUCKS!!!
This is crazy, how can you leave us hanging like that!!! At least finish out the story line with a fifth season and then cancel if you must. I love that show, the cast, the story. I hope y’all make the right choice to finish out the story line or give it to another network, Hulu, Netflix, anyone.
I am SO sorry that Nashville is not returning. It was mine and my wife’s favorite show and I know some of our best friends are disappointed also.
Let our voices be heard By ABC go:
