After three seasons, ABC is moving on. The network has cancelled Suburagatory.
Suburgatory continues the story of single dad George Altman (Jeremy Sisto) and his teenage daughter (Jane Levy) after they move from the city an overly wholesome community in the suburbs. This season, the rest of the cast includes Cheryl Hines, Allie Grant, Ana Gasteyer, Chris Parnell, and Carly Chaikin.
The show premiered in September 2011 to a very strong 3.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 9.8 million viewers. The numbers dwindled downward over the course of the season but the network renewed it for season two anyway.
Season two started off well but once again, the ratings dwindled downward. This time, ABC gave Suburgatory a limited 13 episode renewal.
In season three, the ratings started pretty low and stayed there. The current season has averaged a 1.6 demo rating with 5.44 million viewers. It’s down 27% in the demo when compared to season two’s average.
The network has now decided to call it quits after 57 episodes. The season (now series) finale of Suburgatory will air next Wednesday, May 14th.
What do you think? Are you sorry that this show has been cancelled? Should it have been renewed for season four? Would you watch it on another channel?
Absolutely gutted.!!!! I think this show should continue… It was the best series I’ve seen on TV for a long time. If they aren’t going to make season 4.. I agree with others on here they should at least finish season three off properly. Rather than ending it on episode 13!!! I hope another channel decides to take it over…..
Oh my! Pleeeease, make Season 4!!! The film is so touching, romantic and has a teaching potential! I show some episodes to my students (I am a language teacher), and we discuss it. I am not a TV-show fan myself, but this one got me addicted! What I liked the most about it is that there aren’t so many TV-shows I can easily show to my students and not beep half of the text.
Please, please, please, have it back!
why did they cancel it it was the best and funniesst show i have seen.
Please don´t cancel i´m living in the Netherlands and this is by far one of the best and funniest series i´ve ever seen!! What´s with the open end?1 I need to know what happends next. i’m verry disappointed the show has been cancelled.
Please make a season 4!!
OMG!!! I’m addicted to it. My fiance and i have bought the first few series and cant stop watching! There HAS to be a series 4! It can’t be cancelled. I need to know what’s going to happen. It’s the best show I’ve seen in a long time!
Shame this show has been cancelled. My whole family really enjoyed it and it seemed to be quite popular here in the U.K . Over here E4 show several good U.S shows and this is one of the best.
I absolutely loved Suburgatory! I was anxious to find out where all the story lines were going for season 4! I’m soooo disappointed that it’s been cancelled!
So sad i really liked th programe . Really upset wish it wasnt cancelled
It was a very exciting show and I very muched enjoyed it and I think that a lot of topics where not sorted out yet, I think that is should be continued and have more episides

I loved this show, couldn’t stop watching it. The final episode left everything open, want to see what happens next.
I think they should make season four the final series and leave no openings for the fans like myself. If they knew they was going to quit why did they make the last episode so open for another series they could of at least extended season three one or two more episodes to close it all and finish it off. I am going to miss this show :'(.
It was awesome and actually good ! And the ending left everything open ! 🙁 I wanna see what happens next..
I loved this show!! I hate that it didn’t make it!
Bring it back. It was creative, original and colorful. It’s much better then then a majority of what is on network t.v.
