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.

What do you think? Do you like the State of Affairs TV show? Would you like to see it cancelled or renewed for a second season?
iease don’t cancel this show. My husband and I like to watch it together. Very good show.
I love State of Affairs. The way the ended Season 1 it would suck not to renew. I’d be pissed.
BRING IT BACK, please.
I think it is a well written show. Homeland was my absolute favorite but lately has gotten stupid with the story lines. I think State of Affairs has the potential to do just as well if not better than Homeland. Please do not cancel! There isn’t much on TV that is good anymore. You finally found a show that is, don’t ruin it!
State of Affairs should absolutely be renewed…..maybe give them a better time slot. I hate networks which leave a show hanging and then cancel. It’s disrespectful to it’s viewers. State of Affairs has great intrigue.
Did you see the finale? How can they can’t believe they would cancel this show with this cliffhanger!!
This show is just ludicrous. It’s so implausible that’s its unintentionally laughable throughout. Please cancel it sooner rather than later.
Please renew. I look forward to watching this every week! It is different and I like the story line. I have it in my DVR series recordings also.
LOVE this show! Please renew for season 2!!!!
renew great show
I absolutely love this show! The story lines and suspense are great, and the cast is wonderful. It’s one of my DVR series recordings. Please renew!!!!
The State of Affairs should be renewed because it is such a good show. I like it because it doesn’t insult my intelligence. Please renew.
I love this show. I hope it is renewed.
Please don’t cancel State of Affairs. You gave it a hard time to gain momentum by throwing in the Blacklist spot which was so popular. People started to wonder what as going on to Blacklist and didn’t give State of Affairs a chance. It has a good story line. And there’s more to tell. Do continue.
The BEST show on television – period! Please do not cancel.
Lovveeeee this show & NBC !! I believe its a keeper !! & I’m a show junkie .. Nothing can compare too the black list but this show is just as intense .. Just a different story !!
Cancel it. K H is horrible.
