canceled + renewed TV shows - TV Series Finale

   

The Life & Times of Tim: Cancelled Again, No Season Four

by Trevor Kimball, April 21, 2012

HBO cancels Life and Times of TimFor the second time, HBO has cancelled The Life & Times of Tim. The final episode of season three aired on February 17th.

The cable channel first pulled the plug on the show back in June 2010 after two seasons and 20 episodes. Creator and star Steve Dildarian told us that he was searching for a new home for the show. Options included Adult Swim, Comedy Central, and TBS.

On August 16, 2010, HBO reversed their decision to cancel the TV series and ordered a third season of 10 episodes. Season three premiered on December 16, 2011 and ran on Friday nights.

The ratings were less than impressive. The penultimate episode attracted just 101,000 total viewers and a meager 0.1 rating in the 18-49 demographic.

There’s no word yet if another home for The Life & Times of Tim will be sought but it seems highly unlikely.

What do you think? Will you miss this animated series? Did HBO make the right call by cancelling Tim?

Tim was a show that didn’t need anything fancy to make you laugh, and I think it is this that people either loved or dis-liked the show. Dildarian is a great comedian, with great ideas for a basic show- that can still make you laugh. Personally, I think channels like FX or Comedy Central etc…. would be stupid to pass this show up. I don’t think it costs that much to make and from what I’ve heard/read is that people have only positive things to say about Tim. If it was to move to a different channel and/or night then… Read more »

Only reason this show doesn’t have viewers is because who watches HBO for an animaed comedy. This NEEDS to be comedy Central and it would be the best show on television. anybody who actually watches it already knows the quality comedy that is this show

Word!|
is this HBO attempting to change its image to appeal to a younger audience and then freaking out at it’s own ‘hip-new haircut’?
Fogies best restore this awesome show, or i’ll replace all of your meds with boner pills.

?Como se dice reach around? how the **** could they cancel Tim?! it is truly an outrage. Every single person I’ve shown this show has ******* loved it, no surprise they hadn’t heard about it, HBO needs to do a better job advertising, IMO, Tim is one of their top 3 comedies. And why the hell did they get rid of it on HBO go… such bull ****

Very Sad and Disappointed HBO is giving up on the show. Please find another home for Tim and the gang. I didn’t know this show existed until about 6 months ago and watched each season from start to finish on HBOgo. I loved it. The people I eagerly introduced the show to loved it, too. HBO, advertise better!! Get people to know to watch, then they would be hooked.

I loved this show from the very beginning and I’m very pissed that HBO has cancelled it again. If Tim were to move to another network its best bet would be on either Adult Swim or FX, but I personally think Steve Dildarian should start airing the series on the internet. More people are watching programs that are made for the internet so I think that would be the wisest thing for Dildarian to do.

that sucks. i was an avid fan all the way through season 1. got rid of cable, forgot about the show, then remembered how awesome it was and wanted to see if it was still running. i didn’t realize they tried to cancel once before. went and watched season 2 and 3. now i’m pissed they aren’t making more. if it goes to another station it wont be funny if they have to censor the humor. hope something develops. :/ i thought second was really good. 3rd you could tell they lost momentum, but it was still great. i’ll have… Read more »

I really love the show. Season 2 was the best, they screwed it by playing games between seasons 2 and 3. Although enjoyable, I feel like some of the momentum that Tim had was lost, also Friday night is a crappy time-slot. HBO doomed him.

I on-demanded all of season 3. So ratings can/should be taken with a grain of salt.

I hope the show finds a new home as I’m a huge fan.
