Morris Chestnut on the Rosewood Cancellation
Taking to Instagram, Chestnut wrote:
I am very grateful about the part that everyone took in Rosewood’s journey, because everyone was truly an integral part; the writers who crafted great story-lines, the actors who brought these stories to life, the production crew who sustained the show’s infrastructure, and the terrific fans who embraced this phenomenon and became just as much a part of Rosewood as anyone else.
FOX provided a platform for a show that made strides in diversity and the images it projected, as all-inclusive. We were able to peer into the lives of characters who displayed their hopes, dreams, courage and fears. Rosewood also helped reinforce a newer definition of Family, as a group of people who most care for and support one another.
The #Rosewood family, itself was an Extremely Special group of people who’ll be friends forever.This is not only a part of the industry, it’s a part of life. When one door closes, two more can open… Thank you all for your continued #onelove and support. See you back on the screen, soon. Big and Small. #PEACE – MC
Jaina Lee Ortiz Says Goodbye to Rosewood
Ortiz also posted to Instagram, saying:
Today is a special day. Today I say goodbye to my very first show, Rosewood.
I say goodbye to Detective Annalise Villa. Damn, I’m gonna miss that woman.
To my partner in crime/the guy who mentored me and showed me the ropes on set. The beautiful Morris Chestnut, and when I say beautiful, I mean his HEART, his SOUL. He is the most selfless person I think I’ve ever met. Kind and gracious.
Our rock. Our captain.
5 days a week, 14 hours a day, he became one of my best-friends.
Love you, Morrisito.
The cast…you’re my family.
To all the hardworking crew and writers… you showed me what “movie magic” was really made out of. It’s created on the backs of your hard work.
Last but not least, this show and it’s incredible characters were created by Todd Harthan. This guy said yes when everyone else told me no, and it has changed my life forever. I adore you. 💙
Gotta give a shoutout to all the fans who have supported and loved us from day 1. The love you expressed via social media for the characters and the story is something we will cherish forever.
Love u all!

What do you think? Did you watch the first two seasons of Rosewood? Should FOX have cancelled or renewed this TV series for a third season?
This show was Great!! What are you going to replace it with ANOTHER REALITY SHOW!! SO TIRED OF REALITY CRAP!!
I loved Rosewood. It was such an inspiring and beautifully done show. I learned so much from it and you getting rid of it…is a complete waste on talent compared to some of the crap on TV today. I just re watched it thinking I couldn’t wait for the next season and found out it was cancelled. Tell me why would you cancel this? Bring it back!! Get rid of the some of the trash on TV now and bring back this great show.
They took a part of me i was looking forward to many more seasons especially when rosie and villa would actually kiss thats the only dhow i watched on netflix wow i just feel so depressed finding out the show was amazing it had some much great episodes got better and better none of those other show compared to it im so sad
Should have renewed. The episodes kept you wanting more.
I LOVED THIS SHOW! Bad move Fox!!!! This was one of your best shows!
Damn! It’s sucks! I love this show. Tired of people who cancelled great show because they didn’t have the numbers of viewers they wanted. It’s sucks for thoses who watch ans love the show!
Rosewood was an awesome show. Never missed an episode. Particularly loved the majic between between Annalise and Rosewwod. Show should have been left in the time slot that it was launched from. In addition, it was a show that celebrated the beauty of diversity. Shame on FOX!!
Just finished watching the two Seasons of Rosewood… It was a Fantastic show and my Husband and I enjoyed every minute of it.. It had a well written story line and awesome actors. So disappointed that was cancelled. Please reconsider bringing it back or hopefully another network will pick it up.

I loved this show
Please know I would love more shows like this
I sincerely hope this gets picked up!!! They cannot leave us with a cliffhanger like that! NETFLIX? You could do it!
Fox sure does not know when a show is superior. There was a real story line, great acting and actors, blending of characters, so good I watched all. Ratings are meaningless and in today’s world, it is do I and others come back, and we did. Fox you need to learn to keep the good ones.
OMG I SO LOVED WATCHING THIS SHOW IT’S SAD TO SEE IT GO. THIS IS NOT A GOOD IDEA THEY I LOVE THE DRAMA AND ALL IT. HOPE THAT IT’S RETHOUGHT AND COME BACK.
I was looking forward to the new season sad it’s not coming back. Wishing the best for all the cast
Please bring back season 3!!!! It should have been renewed not canceled…. very disappointed
I could not be more disappointed, I considered Rosewood to be one of the best shows on, especially in it’s first time slot. When they changed nights, they doomed the show, they caused the failure. I have been a fan of Mr. Chestnut for many years and I came to to love the actors he shared the show with. Huge mistake Fox.
