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?
I certainly would watch the show. I love it.
I certainly would watch it. I love the show. Would watch if it moved to another channel too.
Please don’t cancel!! Best show on TV! Will watch on any DirecTV channel! Ged ged yeah!!
Yes, absolutely! It’s a great show, and it should definitely be picked up by another channel. Look how Longmire prospered after it was purchaced by Netflix.

Absolutely! ! It is one of few shows hubby and I both look forward to watching. It’s much better than many of the junk shows on the big networks.
Definitely renew. Show keeps getting better. Amazon or Netflix needs to pick it up.
Yes I love that show they take good shows cancel them then put crap on I am about to cut cable What channel is picking it up
Some original thinking. Yes please find another taker for this series, Netflix, Amazon, whoever.
I would watch this show on ANY network that takes it on even if I have to pay extra. Great show with a great premise and great actors portraying great characters. WGN dropped the ball with this big time!
Absolutely! I’d watch it on whatever network picks it up. Great show, great writing, great story, great performances. Yes, yes, yes
Awesome show I can’t believe that somebody’s backing out and cancelling on it right now. This is the kind of TV that we need right now it’s gritty it’s interesting and it’s well-acted. What is WGN thinking?
We watch it every week. Please don’t cancel. It’s one of our favorite shows!
