NBC has had great ratings success with airing The Blacklist after The Voice, their biggest series. Will State of Affairs be a hit as well? Cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
State of Affairs follows a top CIA analyst (Katherine Heigl) who assembles the President of the United States’ Daily Briefing (PDB), weighing the vital security issues that face the nation. She has a close personal relationship with the commander-in-chief (Alfre Woodard) as she was once engaged to the president’s now-deceased son. The rest of the cast of this dramatic thriller includes Adam Kaufman, Sheila Vand, Cliff Chamberlain, Tommy Savas, and David Harbour.

My favorite show! In so tired of great smart shows being canceled because of reality TV. How many singing shows do we need?? I like my TV to keep me in suspense and tell me a story I can follow on the edge of my seat. State of Affairs does just that. Please renew!!
I really like State of Affairs and it should definitely be renewed for next season. Great chemistry between Charley and Nick. The storyline is good and has gotten stronger trough the season. Please renew!
I have really enjoyed season 1 of State of Affairs and greatly hope to see it renewed! I would gladly faithfully tune in each week to see the continuing story of Charleston Tucker, POTUS and the CIA as depicted on State of Affairs.
PLEASE RE NEW!! This is the best show on TV!! Next to Scandal. It’s an awesome twist and different look at the gov’t. The only current show with the workings of the CIA so it’s got to be renewed! PLEASE
This show is very very good. One of my favorite shows to watch. I just feel NBC doesn’t promote it well. It would be a shame if NBC canceled this show because it is a great show. I actually like it better than the blacklist
My husband and I love this show. We watch it on hulu every Tuesday after it airs. Please don’t cancel!
The plot is really good and I love the cliffhangers! Please renew!
