Telly’s Take
Although it premiered with lower numbers than last year, season two of People of Earth has been doing well. I suspect it will be renewed for a third season.

What do you think? Were you happy when the People of Earth TV show was renewed for a third season? How do you feel about TBS reversing the renewal and cancelling People of Earth, instead? Sound off in the comments.
Network won’t take a chance on an original show, nor allow it to go on long enough to really catch on – they used to do this. But no more, which is a shame.
I loved the show. Premise was original and wonderfully wacky. I was so looking forward to season 3! Bring People of Earth back to us! Please!
Very disappointed I loved this show. So far there’s absolutely nothing at all worth watching on tv. They cancell anything that’s halfway good
This was such a great show! The off-beat production really added to the outstanding cast, writing and directing. First it’s renewed then two months before it’s supposed to air its canceled. TBS is sooo flaky. First it wants mainstream, then it wants edgy, then it cancels its best show… When someone can’t make up their mind they usually come up empty-handed.
The third season is already written, maybe another network will pick it up… Hope so.
just found this show and love it sad it’s not coming back for a third 🙁
canceling this show?!? Why? This is a really good well acted funny show. Cancel Samantha b instead
So sad this show is not coming back! Jeff is the best! One of the very few shows my teenage son and I enjoy together.
Do not cancel People of Earth. It is one of the funniest show on T.V. There are so many shows that should not be on. But this one needs to stay. Please don’t cancel.
Don’t cancel People of Earth please! We love the show and have been looking and watching for updates on premier date. so many of my friends love show too. This is shocking.
People of Earth was my can’t miss show. I haven’t enjoyed a show this much in years! Casting was fantastic, I was fond of each and every character. The plot was amusing and witty. There was just enough suspense to keep you wanting more. Please bring People of Earth back!
Bring #PeopleOfEarth back!
