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?
Yes I would watch if it was on another station. Please do season 3.
I cannot believe this show is canceled, seriously one of the best shows on television right now! !! I sure hope they reconsider this BAD CHOICE! !!!!
WGN is going to regret dropping Outsiders. This show is amazing.
Just discovered this show on dvd, love it!
I wish WGN would have kept this show! I looked forward to season 3. I will follow the show to wherever it goes. Hopefully it will be picked up by another network. Possibly Netflix or perhaps STARS.
I would watch the outsiders on any channel.hope some onepicks up.
Yes!! I certainly hope another channel picks up this great show. It’s not right that us as fans have came to enjoy 2 seasons and are left like that.
Yes I would watch this show on any channel. I’m not a big TV watcher but I love this show .
WGN should have continued the series.
I watched each episode at least 3 times a week.
Excellent program and devastating loss
I am still searching for a local source for Ferrell wine!!!
Love this show and it’s unique society.
Very original, scripts are engaging and characters complex. TRuly hope there is a season 3 on another channel.
To anyone reading this please sign the petition to have another network pick the show up. Even though it has been turned down by many, anything is possible. I could even seeing airing on the Sundance channel. WGN honestly was not a good channel not even people go there on a regular basis. https://www.change.org/p/paula-askanas-outsiders-shay-must-stay
Please don’t cancel Outsiders. When season 2 ended I looked forward to season 3. It ended with a lot of cliffhangers that I know I’m not the only one who wants to know what happens next. I hope they can find another network to take thus on. I know they won’t be sorry for doing it.
Please don’t cancel Outsiders! It is a very unique and compelling story and too many loose ends.
Really disappointed the series is cancelled. One of the more entertaining series in recent years. Hope another network picks it up and runs with it.
The TV show the Outsiders is vone of the best entertaining shows on television. If you are going to cancel it I certainly hope another channel will pick it up. You only had two good shows on that channel The Outsiders and Underground. I hope it will become a great lost to your networkj
