As fans of The Firm may have noticed, the cancelled legal drama was bumped from the schedule once again last Saturday night. As a result, NBC has adjusted their schedule and delayed the final four episodes by one week each.
If you watch the show via Hulu, you may have already seen the 19th episode. A note on the streaming website says, “Due to a programming error, Chapter 19 went up earlier than intended. We apologize for the error – it will become available again this weekend.”
You can see the revised airdates below, as well as brief episode descriptions:

What do you think? Are you still watching The Firm? Do you think that they’ll wrap everything up by the end of the season/series?
Love the show. If NBC doesn’t reconsider, I sure hope some cable network realizes what a gem of a show this is and picks it up. My husband I look forward to it week after week and will, without a doubt, follow it should it be picked up by another network.
Don’t understand why you are canceling the Firm. Great show. We don’t miss it. Please reconsider or get it into the hands of another network. e. g. TNT.
why do the networks do this? give this show a chance! hope it gets picked up by a cable network!!
Love this show and so sad it is being cancelled Please reconsider.
I love this show. Can NBC change it to a different night, so we can have season 2 ? At first I couldn’t keep up with all the details of the the show. Especially since they keep canceling episodes. Please keep the show. I want more !!!!!!
Really like this show. Seems like everyone I like always gets cancelled. So disappointed.
Please do not cancel this show!!! I love it and Harry’s law. I don’t think NBC actually gave this show a chance. Debut was on a extremely competative night and so it didn’t show well. I am hoping it will get picked up by another network. Although, Josh Lucas doesn’t like how the writers have developed this series, I hope he stays because he is a good actor. I don’t care for the person who is playing his wife so by all means drop her!
My wife and I loved it. Never missed an episode. Recorded if necessay so not to miss. Well acted, engaging, well told, just a wonderful series. Hope it stay on NBC. We like NBC, but if not hopefully will be picked up by another channel
I think the program finally got legs and should be given new life. It did get a little tedious in the middle episodes but now that the whole insurance debacle is over and they are trying to hang onto their marriage, it is getting juicy:)
I watch The Firm whenever it is on. I still want to know WHY they cancelled it? I was hoping another network or cable would pick it up.
Please don’t cancel not much good anymore on TV
Ive already watched these episodes???
I like the show and watch it but I will not be watching any new show NBC puts out in the future as they don’t give anything a chance. Cancelling The Firm week after week for repeats is just foolish as its the only new show on.
Hopefully one of the cable nets picks it up for next season as it’s still being made for other countries.
Please don’t cancel The Firm and Harry’s Law.
I’m really upset that the big three networks are at it again! Everytime they air a series that’s actually worth me taking my time to watch, they cancel it because of demographics. Now, The Firm, Missing and Harry’s Law have all been cancelled. WHEN ARE THEY (HEADS OF NETWORKS AND THEIR SHOW SPONSORS) GOING TO GET IT THROUGH THEIR THICK HEADS, THAT THOSE OF US WHO ARE OLDER AND HAVE RAISED OUR FAMILIES HAVE MORE MONEY TO SPEND. “The demographics” are going to movie theaters, bars, etc. or raising their families and going to their activities and not spending their… Read more »
