On the previous episode of The Dead Zone, Johnny (Anthony Michael Hall) and his son JJ (Connor Price) were having new visions of Armageddon. Apparently the end was closer than they knew.
After six seasons, USA Networks has chosen to cancel the science-fiction series. Coincidentally, Dead Zone’s last episode aired on the same night as The 4400’s which has also been cancelled. It was suspected that time was running out on both series as they’ve both been on the air for several seasons and have grown more expensive. USA reportedly searched for ways to cut costs so the shows could be renewed but they ultimately decided to pull the plug.
Of the two cancellations, USA exec Jeff Wachtel said, “We wish we could keep all our great shows alive forever. But we feel we need to give some of our new shows a platform to grow, and it’s with great sadness that we say goodbye to two shows that had a great run and helped create the resurgence of original programming on our network and on all of cable.”
There’s been no word of any plans to bring the series’ unresolved storylines to a close. Stay tuned! 
Please…enough with those rediculous reality shows…give us some real entertainment. Watching TV stinks, commercials are getting longer and longer, too.
The Dead Zone was real entertainment. I’m only on Season Two on DVDs and now I find out it’s been cancelled! For God’s sake…PLEASE….don’t let them cancel DEXTER too!
Reality TV Sucks but it’s cheap to produce. No big stars to pay or special effects to create. I never though USA would crap out on us but looks like they followed the lead of the major networks. It’s not about what the viewers want, it’s all about how much money they can line their pockets with. I only watched 4 shows on USA. The Dead Zone The 4400,Monk and Psyche. I”m sure Monk and Psyche will be next as they cost money to produce and in my opinion are not as good at the 4400 or Dead Zone. Just… Read more »
TV has become a WASTELAND with these crappy reality shows. I’ve had it. From now on I’m turning off my TV and renting shows or movies from Netflix. At least I can rent decent stories and interesting programs. These stupid network executives! Every decent show I’ve gotten into has been cancelled (with the exception of Cold Case). I’m not watching TV anymore. And now I don’t have to deal with 7 commercials every 20 minutes either.
Why? All I ask is why? You just stopped the greatest 2 shows on USA network and replaced them with all that reality garbage! And you stopped them without closure! You will lose all of your viewers, including me!
I really look fwd to these shows all winter. I can’t believe they were both canceled. and that we were just left hanging….I can’t stand “REALITY” T.V. I have enogh reality in my life. Without these shows…I really don’t have any use for USA network. I really wish the network would reconsider!
I think that ending Dead Zone without giving us any closure was wrong. I hate when they cancel a series without wrapping things up.
I hate reality shows and the Dead Zone was one of the few I watched. I loved Anthony Michael Hall in this. He was doing such a fabulous job! And, now we’ll never know what happened.
no closure, and more shows no one will watch. BRING BACK THE DEAD ZONE for one more season….I am boycotting USA until they do so.
USA must have some really dumb people running the network. Dead Zone and The 4400 were the only two shows worth watching on USA. Other than the WWE I cant see anyone watching USA unless they run some older movie that has a high fan base. Just a completely dumb move on getting rid of the only two shows USA has had been worth watching for years now.
The Dead Zone is the best show TV has given us in recent years. I even rate it above Medium which I absolutely love. I own all of the DVD’s for every season and have shared them with many people. Needless to say, everyone that I have shared them with is hooked on the show and cannot believe that it is not coming back. I’m with everyone else … give us one more season for some closure!
Please, bring back The Dead Zone. Please bring it back for one more season, so we can have some closure
This was such a great show the took thought,not like most shows with little or no substance. I loved this show. Looked forward to every episode.
I am with the rest of you about them canceling the 4400 and the Dead Zone. We love the shows and now they are gone and incomplete with no closing. I hate those phony reality shows and therefore will not be tuning into USA network again unless they bring back these shows or new ones that do. I have stop watching the other public stations that show reality shows too. I have now plenty of time to do internet and watch dvd movies.

I am very dissappointed that you cancelled both shows (Dead Zone and 4400) especially without closure!!! One more season for each would have been just fine. You have lost quite a bit of viewers…I am one of them.
i am completely disappointed and disheartened that USA would cancel this show. i have followed several new shows – burn notice, psych, etc – it will be hard for me to return or continue to support the resurgence of this network because i feel they will pull the plug on everything when it gets good!
Johnny and sara just started getting good! How could you cancel your best show? You will regret it! A lot of fans will be disapointed, so much for usa
