In a move that’s sure the alienate fans, TBS has cancelled its People of Earth TV show. There will be no third season, despite the fact that the Turner-owned cable network already renewed People of Earth for season three, back in September of 2017. According to creator David Jenkins, although the third season has been written (but not shot), the People of Earth cancellation is official. Check it out, below.
A TBS sitcom, People of Earth stars Wyatt Cenac, Ana Gasteyer, Oscar Nuñez, Michael Cassidy, Alice Wetterlund, Luka Jones, Brian Huskey, Nancy Lenehan, Tracee Chimo, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Björn Gustafsson, and Ken Hall. The story centers on journalist Ozzie Graham (Cenac) who comes to town to investigates supposed alien encounters. He is soon drawn into an eclectic group of misfits as he finds himself identifying with their experiences.
People of Earth Cancellation Confirmed
Late last month, creator and writer David Jenkins informed fans the renewal was in jeopardy and asked them to send a friendly note to TBS, if they wanted to see a third season of People of Earth.
So, I'm hearing #PeopleOfEarth might not return for season three. If you're a fan of the show (thanks!) and would like to see more, please consider dropping @tbs a friendly note. https://t.co/6F7TWiFATV

TBS seems not to have been moved by fan outreach, as Jenkins relayed the cancellation decision last night.
Just got word last night: TBS has cancelled People of Earth. Thank you to everyone who was a fan of the show and enjoyed its gentle, amiable sci-fi weirdness. It was an honor sharing this show with you. Let's do it again soon. Love you all. https://t.co/QViyRi0RNF
