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 love this show!!
I definatly LOVE this show..I have been hooked on it since the first episode..each episode leaves me wanted to watch another which I think is exactly what a tv show should be about..I love the actors,dialogue, EVERYTHING..and I absolutly love Katherine hiegl I have adored her since greys anatomy …it reflects what Is happening in the world and I also think we can learn from this show…it is amazing… There better be a SEASON TWO!!!
The show is fabulous and not renewing would be a travesty. It is similar to homeland and that show is terrific also. I believe katherine heigl is terrific.
I really liked State of Affairs, the acting was great and the story lines seemed current. It would be a real shame to see the show cancelled. They needed to give it more publicity, so more people would know about it. I feel that the Blacklist started out this way and then the audience grew. Give it another chance !!!
Please continue the show. I am absolutely hooked on it and could not stand not seeing Charlie and Nick survive the air strike and not have another season together. CIA and Cold War shows are just great.
This is a good show. Not only does it give a certain insight to what a President deals with. It also gives light to what people dont see. The way our social media can be manipulated and gives people something to think about. I love the dynamic and just the twists and turns. Its not your usual USA is the best. It shows the good the bad and even the ugly of what our country is. I love it. Boost the marketing for it and i’ll bet you’ll get more viewers.
I Hope you give this show a chance. I’m Absolutely addicted and after the last show you CAN’T leave us hanging! Please don’t cancel!!!
So I saw the last episode first as I had no idea the show was on til someone else was asking if I was watching. After watching that, I had to go back all the way to the beginning on Xfinity on demand. I watched every single show (despite all the commercials) for the past 5 nights watching as many shows in one sitting that I could… up til 2am in the morning.and made the husband watch too.. ..we are addicted to the plot and the characters… a very scary State of Affairs, reflecting what our country is facing now…… Read more »
This is a GREAT Show! I hope it won’t be cancelled as I looked forward to Monday every week. This is my favorite show since 24 went off air…., Please Don’t Cancel! The Cast is exceptional, and I love Katherine Heigl in it. There is so much potential in this show and it would be a tragedy to let it get cancelled….
I also thought the show reminded me of 24 with strong women playing the lead roles. This show needs to be renewed.
Love this show! Don’t cancel it! We look forward to it each week!
Don’t cancel this show! My husband and I watch it together and really love it! It has a great mix, keeping both guys and girls interested and on the edge of our seats. Love State of Affairs, please lets see season two!
This is the best shot on TV. Keeps me wanting more.. Please don’t cancel it!!!
PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL. The actors were great…the scripts were great….Always looked forward to the next episode……..and please keep Charlie and Nick alive…let them have another season together……..
I think this program has gotten better and better. I think it is way better than many of the others similar to it. Love the cast. Def do not think it should be cancelled.
I love the show. Please don’t cancel!
