What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the CMT cable channel, Still the King stars Billy Ray Cyrus as Vernon Brownmule. The cast also includes Joey Lauren Adams, Madison Iseman, Jon Sewell, Travis Nicholson, Leslie David Baker, Kevin Farley, and Justin Dray. In season two, Austin Swift guest stars as Tyler, the manager of Nashville’s storied music venue, The Bluebird Café. Arden Myrin and Natalie Dreyfuss have also joined in recurring roles.
The comedy centers on “Burnin’ Vernon” — a scandal-ridden, washed-up, one-hit-wonder who has been eking out a living as an Elvis Presley impersonator. Now that he is out of jail, Vernon aims to reclaim music career, while still being a good dad to Charlotte (Iseman). Since he may be the father of Debbie’s (Adams) unborn child, Vernon must balance his desire for fame with his family responsibilities.

Telly’s Take
Season two premiered with very low numbers and they’ve gotten worse. At this point, I believe it will be cancelled. Since I’m fond of southern fare, I’ll keep a hungry eye on the Nielsens and update this page as needed. Subscribe for free updates on any Still the King cancellation or renewal news.

What do you think? Do you hope the Still the King TV show will be renewed for a third season? How would you feel if CMT cancelled this TV series, instead?
Yes would love to see still the king come back on just left me hanging who’s the father I really love the show and sun records to
Still the king was a good show the best they need to bring it back for a third season
Such a funny show with great actors and actresses. Please bring it back for season 3!!!! I can’t believe CMT would leave all it’s fans hanging!!! Who’s the daddy CMT? Who’s the daddy???
WHY is it cancelled? It was GENIUS! I literally laughed out loud watching this show – every episode!! Great concept, no holds barred humor, Awesome cast through and through! I LOVE how even the most minor of characters had their own story lines! PLEASE bring it back for Season 3!!
I never expected to enjoy this show as much as I do, but it’s really entertaining. Season 2 was really funny and definitely hit its stride in my opinion. But, how could you not expect the rating to drop when you play episodes at 1:00 AM? Sigh. Still hoping for a Season 3!
I love this show and have been watching for it to come back on.
Maybe if they would quit moving the times around people looking for it with know where it was. I really enjoy the show just have a hard time finding it it’s always moving from different days to different times.
Please DONT CANCEL THIS SHOW!!!! It’s the ONLY SHOW I WATCH LITERALLY!!!!!
Love this show. Guess it will be cancelled. Anything that is enjoyable is removed. Reason i stopped watching network tv years ago was that they ended shows and left viewers hanging. Cmt will be on my no view list if still the king is cancelled without some resolution for viewers.
I love this show too. Hope it continues in season 3. Have watched every episode by taping on dvr. Too bad it is on in middle of night.
I love this show and the ratings fell because it starting being aired at 1am instead of it’s normal time. Thank God for DVR. Leave it on the right time, let the fans enjoy it and stop ******** with it. Anxiously awaiting season 3! #loveburninvernon
Please renew still the king for third season I enjoy this
Why do all the Good shows get canceled? I love this show- VERY funny!
If still the king gets cancelled them I’ll never watch anything on CMT again. I love this show. Lived it so much that i would love to have a role in it. I love comedy. Billy Ray use to look like me his whole life.
