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 sick that they cancelled this show. It was one of the most well written and intelligent shows in a very long time. I hate when they let you get invested in a show and then not give it a chance to catch on. It was a mid season replacement against two other seasoned and popular shows. Give the public a chance t find a show before you cut it off at the knees.
One of the best series I’ve seen in a very long time, please renew
I love this show. And the last show left a lot questions unanswered.. please don’t end it that way . Bring Charlie back at least 1 more season.
Please renew…. This was one of my favorite shows – almost as much as the Blacklist..
Make that the The Black List …..not the Black Book as I first posted. ( It may be a list ) 😉
The State of Affairs is one of the best programs on tv that I enjoy watching. I watched this and the Black Book and having both of them keeps me coming back for more. Please don’t discontinue a series that is very well written and the action is believable. Don’t make a mistake and discontinue this program.
Please renew this show
The story line is probably closer to our lives than we know
The acting is outstanding
Next to the Blacklist, this is the best scripted show on television. You have to think to watch and you have to watch to keep up with the story line, which is why it probably isn’t doing as well as it could be. Please keep this show another season to find its audience!
Please dont cancel i love charlie
State of Affairs’ story line, writing and acting is among THE best on TV.
Please DO NOT cancel this series.
