Are you a fan of Outsiders? WGN America just cancelled the TV series after two seasons. What do you think? Do you think it should have been renewed? Would you watch a third season on another channel?
Airing on Tuesday nights, the Outsiders drama follows the Farrell clan, a tight-knit family who reside in the rugged hills of Appalachia and come into conflict with the surrounding population. The cast includes David Morse, Thomas M. Wright, Ryan Hurst, Joe Anderson, Gillian Alexy, Kyle Gallner, Christina Jackson, Francie Swift, and Phyllis Somerville.
Ratings have never been great for Outsiders, but it’s been one of the highest-rated original scripted shows on WGN America. Currently, season two is averaging a 0.21 rating in the 18-49 demo and 780,000 viewers — down by 26% in the demo when compared to the first season. Now, it seems that the upcoming season two finale, scheduled for April 25th, will also serve as the series finale.
Or, will it? Sony Pictures Television is reportedly shopping a third season of Outsiders to other outlets. The show’s ratings wouldn’t seem to be a strong selling point but, these days, you never know.
What do you think? Should Outsiders have been renewed by WGN America? Would you watch the TV series on another channel or via a streaming service?
They shouldn’t cancel the show. I love it!
Another network or subscription site should bring Outsiders back for Season 3. The cast and crew are amazing and there’s a strong fan base. Pittsburgh has loved being the home of filming Outsiders!
I discovered season one just before seasonal two began and my husband and I watched the entire season one weekend! I was hooked on it like blue bell homemade vanilla ice cream! Season two has me at the edge of my seat and I’m in love with Basil, and 2 others! Don’t leave me now! I love you more than the walking dead! THAT’S saying a lot for me. Please don’t go away!
I love this show and would definitely watch it on another channel- please make season 3!!!
Really like this show. Hope it gets to NETFLIX.
Only reason is ratings aren’t great is because majority of homes are dumping cable and satellite and going strictly to streaming devices. My watching doesn’t get counted because I have to wait for it to release on hulu after each season. Not only that but the remaining people who do have cable/satellite don’t get WGN channel because it’s on the more expensive packages.
Why would you cancel such a great show? It’s the only show on your channel worth watching. The Outsiders is one of the best shows to even be on TV anymore. I would definitely watch on another channel.
I would definitely watch. Hooked front the start.
Even if i, don’t have the Channel u changE 2… please 4 those that do… most definitely yes please and thank you… if outsiders are ready u should know by now your viewers are
We love this show!! Please don’t cancell!!!
Love the Outsiders!!! Hope the show will continue if not on WGN any other network will work for me. I hope Netflix picks it up. Keeping fingers crossed!!!!!
Love this show. Would definitely watch it on hulu or netflix. Can’t understand why it was canceled. WGN wanted more diversity? That makes no sense.
Yes I will continue to watch enjoyed it breath of fresh air from all the cops and political
My wife and I have watched the outsiders since the beginning. we will miss it. It is making great rating why would you can it? We’ll watch it on any Chanel. Make it a pay Chanel so it doesn’t need to be sensored.
#ShayMustStay it’s the only show I make time to watch and don’t DVR for later.
