canceled + renewed TV shows - TV Series Finale

   

The Brink: Season Two Cancelled by HBO

by Jessica Pena, October 27, 2015

The Brink TV show on HBO: season 2

Looks like The Brink may be past the brink of no return. According to Deadline, HBO has decided not to renew the political comedy series for a second season.

The news is somewhat surprising considering the network announced a season two renewal back in July. The half-hour comedy, which featured Jack Black and Tim Robbins as political operatives bungling their way through a crisis in Pakistan, received mixed reviews and fair-to-low ratings for its first season.

No news on whether the series will continue on another network.

From HBO, in a statement to Deadline:

After evaluating our schedule and our programming needs, we unfortunately decided we cannot give The Brink the attention it deserves for a second season. We are proud of the first season and wish everyone involved in this show the very best.”

What do you think? Did you watch The Brink? Would you still like to see a season two?

Very disappointed to hear this. I thoroughly enjoyed the last season, and was happy to commit to such a well written show. Tim Robbins and Jack Black were spot on as always, but I was particularly impressed with the performances from Aasif Mandvi and Maribeth Monroe, and felt they really added to a well balanced cast. Keeping my finger crossed that HBO will keep it on the shelf and not deep six it permanently. Great shows are few and far between.

I gave a copy of the show to my friend who rarely watches TV or movies and he sat up all night and watched the complete series in one go proclaiming it as BRILLIANT!!!! It felt like someone just cancelled Christmas for kids when they announces season 2 was cancelled. HBO get a grip and get this show back on the road at all cost before someone else does.

This show is fantastic – absolutely fantastic! HBO – or someone – please bring it back. And let people know about it. This was a really great show. SO much better than many other programs on the air. We are so bummed about this.

What a surprise! I thought it was sure thing. The series was fantastic, very well acted, extremely funny. Probably to leftist for the Trump crowd. Who knows? HBO missed a beat.

Very disappointing! I felt this was one of the best of all the new shows last season… Guess that’s why I’m disappointed but not surprised, Networks should just ask me if I like a show or not, if I do they could cancel straight away and save all that money on polls…..
