Last week, we reported that Person of Interest executive producer J.J. Abrams said the series will likely be cancelled after its upcoming fifth season. Now, CBS has stated that the decision to cancel or renew will not be made before season five premieres in the spring.
Person of Interest was renewed for a 13-episode fifth season back in May.
Speaking at the TCA winter press tour, CBS executive Glenn Geller said the creators of Person of Interest “have planned a terrific season,” and the network “hope[s] to get it on this spring.”
While CBS is keeping silent about plans for the series, Abrams said the creative team is planning the upcoming season as if it were its last:
“My guess is [Season 5] is the final season. The only heartbreak there is how much good story there was to come if it were to have continued. … But, obviously, things can be adjusted if [there’s] a miraculous [ratings] performance. But I think the idea is that this would be the finale.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of Person of Interest? Do you think the next season will be its last?
I really hope this show isn’t cancelled. It is a fantastic show and I am waiting for this next season!
PLEASE do not cancel this series–it is AWESOME & I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like it. PLEASE don’t!
Loved the show …..do not cancel
I’m a maj fan of Person of Interest. Noticed that it ranked in the top 25 (if I recall) each week. Jim/James Caviezel is great in whatever he does. And the rest of the cast are perfect in their roles, including the dog!
My fiance and I love this show we found it on netflix have watched every episode so far together and cant wait for more to air! Please do not cancel poi its one of the few we actually like to watch… amazing plot and actors I vote for more renewed season’s. .
Like others have stated, this is one of the best shows on TV, would be a shame if it were cancelled. 🙁
This is one of the best shows on T.V. Extremely well written and perfectly casted. I never know what is going to happen next. Please keep it on the air
Please do not cancel POI. We watch every episode.
Please don’t cancel POI! Great characters, plots and stories! We watch the show as a family.
Person of Interest should be renewed for several seasons. It’s one of the best suspense series on tv.
I don’t watch much TV. In fact, there are only three shows I make the effort to watch. Blacklist, Elementary, and Person of Interest. I’ve not missed an episode of any. I hope they don’t cancel POI!
O
I agree with your comments and selections. I also started watching Second Chance and it has potential.
This is a great show that should be continued. It is the only show that deals with the way privacy and technology issues are moving. It has great actors, great story lines and is an overall great show.
POI is unique in that it deals with the way technology and privacy issues have been moving towards. It deffinately should continue. It has great actors, great story lines, and otherwise great all around.
Please don’t cancel…nice to have a show the whole family can watch together. Interesting plots and great actors. This show stands on its own merit. Not everyone wants to watch nudity, foul language and ignorant story lines….there are few shows like POI. This show has a big fan base…renew not cancel.
POI should not be cancelled. It was one of my favourite shows and always provocative
