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?
I am hooked…..there must be a Season 2 to get me back off this cliffhanger that season 1 left me swinging by my fingernails on!! I’m now invested in the characters. …..and yes, there are a bunch of pretty little liars on this show too. I’m casting a vote for a second season for sure!
I absolutely love this show and it is staying with the current events in the world. Please renew this series.
We really enjoy this series. Sometimes I think they want it cancelled because it is too realistic.
Absolutely love this show.. please let there be a season 2.. I wanna know What happens..
please keep State of Affairs…I love this show!!
I LOVE STATE OF AFFAIRS AND THIS SHOULD BE RENEWED ONE OF THE BEST TV SHOWS ON RIGHT NOW!!
This is a really great program. The cast is wonderful and the story line is current. I hope they keep this on air!
The show is great! People are busy, Monday night is the worst night to pilot a show. Networks should stand behind a series that comes to fruition. If they keep canceling shows that are intriguing, they are toying with viewers emotions and psyche. Eventually we’re going to develop anxiety towards falling in love with a tv show and ratings will get even worse. It’s really infuriating how quick the Networks are to cancel shows now.
Great show – hope it won’t be cancelled. Katherine does a a great job – makes it believable. Super finale.
Renew great show
I love this show. It keeps you on your toes with intrigue and suspense. Please renew it.
