Debuting in 2010, Rizzoli & Isles has been TNT‘s most-watched scripted series and, last season, viewership grew. Will the ratings continue to climb or start to fall? Is a sixth season essentially guaranteed? Could this show possibly be cancelled anytime soon? Stay tuned!

What do you think? Do you like the Rizzoli & Isles TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a sixth season?
I hope they renew it. I love this show. This last season the writers seemed to focus more on their Twitter antics and behind the scenes stuff than the actual writing. Thank Jan Nash for that. She’s funny and seems personable but her focus on Angie and making the last few episodes the Angie Harmon show seemed plain weird. I think it just doesn’t make sense to have Angie Harmon dressed as a sexy librarian and doing some weird twirl as part of the show. Sasha didn’t get very much screen time and sometimes it seemed as though they kept… Read more »

Please renew!! Love this show and the friendship between the characters!
the show is great please do another series really really enjoy all the series please don’t cancel
I really liked this show at first but have been disappointed this season. Why in the world would they have Jane pregnant then showing her putting the baby at risk instead of caring for the baby?

Viewership for the show probably went down because of the loss of a cast member and the story line changed drastically. Some of the showings seemed to grasp at structure.

The story line was flowing smoothly with the new detective that was brought in that Jane had dated in the past; when her Mom was dating the Captain, when Tommy was cleaning up his act to gain or share custody of his baby. That stuff was working… Read more »
I wish I could say “Carol, I disagree with you” But I can’t. I still Love the show and the cast but even with the pain of losing a fellow co-worker you just can’t make big changes. Come on writers get back to what you do best, writing a really GREAT POLICE DRAMA.
I really like this show, however, I think it will be cancelled because TNT doesn’t like the demographic (mostly women over 40 from what I understand.) This wouldn’t be the first time that a show was cancelled while it was still on top.
I love the show. I hope it does stay on for another season.
This show is great,bothe the cast and the crew are doing a stellar job
