What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the NBC television network, The Night Shift stars Robert Bailey Jr., Eoin Macken, Jill Flint, Brendan Fehr, Scott Wolf, Tanaya Beatty, and JR Lemon, with Mark Consuelos recurring in season four. Although they’re kind of quirky, San Antonio Memorial’s emergency room night shift staff is extraordinary. They’ll risk almost anything to save their patients. Season three ended with Paul Cummings (Bailey) leading a staff walk-out after his father bought the hospital and fired Topher. Meanwhile, overseas, TC Callahan (Macken) was knocked out, during a refugee camp bombing. The fourth season picks up two days later, with everyone dealing with the consequences of their decisions. In Syria, TC’s proclivity for chaos helps him save people.

Telly’s Take
Although season four premiered with much lower numbers than last season, it is still a bit too early to use the ratings to predict whether NBC will cancel or renew The Night Shift for season five. That said, this show’s audience has declined from year to year, particularly in its demo ratings. While I haven’t left my perch, my interest and appetite are piqued. For now, I’ll keep a hungry eye on the Nielsens and update this page with any developments. Subscribe for free updates on any Night Shift cancellation and renewal news.

Enjoy watching the night shift. Hope it doesn’t get cancelled. Lots of other shows that should go before it.
The Night Shift is one of the best shows on NBC. Please do not cancel it. It’s really sad that they keep renewing the crappy shows and get rid of the really good ones. Lets keep the good shows on for a change. Renew Night Shift for a season 5 you will not regret it.
We have REALLY enjoyed this incredible show. That it honors our Veterans & puts them in the spotlight is amazing.
