Telly’s Take

Will Strike Back be cancelled or renewed for season eight? The ratings were very low last year so I’m thinking that the numbers are so small that they aren’t that vital to this show’s survival. I suspect that Strike Back’s fate will be determined by other business factors. For now, I’ll keep an eye on the Nielsens and update this page with breaking news.
