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?
am Kenyan … and we don’t get that many cool series …
but I live and breathe surbugatory…
I love it especially Dalia Royce . . she’s like me but am prettier…
but I love it and Ryan shay please just bring it back please I beg … for the fans …
BRING SUBURBATORY BACK!!!
i love this show it was amazing … wee needd a season 4 . I love Tessa and Ryann and want to know what hapen with then T.T
I REALLY miss this show. It was an amazing mash-up of Witt and Pop-culture. ABC should definitely reconsider bringing the series back. Just try some new writers and tweak the story line.
Anyone who reads this let me know how we can sign a petition or something to get this show back, I really dont care what it takes, for all you fans there we can bring this show back!!!
I think that if they are going to start something they should fish it I’ve watched all 3 seasons and find it’s unfair to just stop it seeing as there were so many viewers and so many Tessa and Ryan fans. WE AT LEAST WANT TO KNOW WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN BETWEEN THEM
I really miss this show. What happened to it was normal and sufficient enough to cancel the show, even if how good the show had been. Just like what happened to Freaks and Geeks. I miss Dalia, god. If there were any chances for a comeback, it would be really satisfying, I’d even cry. No pun intended. And please recommend nice TV sitcoms on the reply button below.
Pleasseeee start 4th season.. I love ittttttt 🙁
I hate when shows get cancelled like this. They should at least put out a real ending. I’ve been dying to know what happens to Ryan and Tessa. It’s such a pet peeve when they cancel shows and just leave it. You guys started this mess, you could at least finish it in a good way. Don’t just leave it. To me 5 million viewers is a lot. I would definitely watch this show on another network. I think it shows something that it’s been off for a year and people are still upset about it cancelled.
So stupid of them to cancel this… it was awesome it kept the viewers on their toes… if there is a possibility for it to be picked up by another network… I will sign and damn petition… miss the show so much…
Knowing that I won’t be able to see what’s will be going on between Tessa and Ryan is just killing me. Even Tessa’s college life is one big mystery, so please give me more Suburgatory!
I think the people that stoped this searies are dickheads!! I loved suburgatory so much and i bet so many more people to .. i still cant believe why they stoped it,so what if they had 6 milion vews and not 9 lire before … cant they just be happy that atleast they got quite a few and not five!! Alla they care is about there money ! I would love for them to bring out a new season but no they have to be selfish … i really hope the people of who stopped the series would see this… Read more »
It was a really gud show…..it shouldnt hav been cancelled…..i really want to knw wht happened to tessa n ryan……pls do air da next season….!!!!
I really don’t understand why have you cancelled this show. It is the funniest and realiest show i’ve ever seen and not knowing what happens with all of my lovely characters is killing me. Making such a suprising final episode is the crueliest thing you could do! If you won’t continue the show at least give us a brief summary of the characters future because i’m sure the fans won’t keep calm without it!
Many thanks, xoxo from Hungary
I love this show so much that I was expecting for season 4.. till I heard it was cancelled.. I really wanna know what happen to Tessa and Ryan..
