Will season four be the last for The Night Shift? NBC has released new details for the upcoming season finale, but will the episode be a series finale?
The medical drama follows the emergency room staff of a San Antonio hospital. The cast includes Robert Bailey Jr., Eoin Macken, Jill Flint, Brendan Fehr, Scott Wolf, Tanaya Beatty, and JR Lemon.
Based on the ratings, The Night Shift‘s chances of a fifth season seem unlikely. This season, ratings have been down for the NBC series and the network has not yet announced a renewal decision. So far, season four is averaging a 0.70 in the 18-49 demo and 4.178 million viewers. That’s a near 30% drop in the ratings from season three.
Here’s the synopsis of the season four finale, which premieres on August 31st at 10 p.m. ET/PT:

What do you think? Should this be the last season for The Night Shift? Or should it be renewed for a fifth season?
It should be renewed! Both my family and my daughter’s family watch this show before we watch anything else! LOVE it!
I think it should be renewed! The show has taken a turn to something that could be very interesting
I definetly think it should be renewed! I think it has taken a turn and could be very interesting going forward!
Night shift should come back for another season
I really like this show keep it going. I like the shows base and how we wish your hospital could be
Absolutely want another season!
I enjoyed it more last season. Now, w/that rogue dr who is such a bleeding heart lib. we stopped watching it. Who wants a dr. that causes so much trouble on their staff? He’d be fired in real life!
this show is so good it should be moved to the fall lineup
Much better than Chicago Med. There isn’t much on this summer. Go and watch this one. You won’t be disappointed.
You are right on the money. Chicago Med should go and br replaced with night shift.
Renew this show! One of the only decent shows on during the summer.
Renew!!! Seriously .. this is the only decent thing on summer TV. (Now that NBC canned Aquarius)
Please bring it back – expanding the hospital’s function/focus with the inclusion of the Veterans’ Hospital brings the possibility of telling many stories that need to be told. Now the patient population is heavier with Veterans – what a great –
and important dynamic. The writing is great, characters are great – bring it back!
Please keep going!!!! Awesome show!
Please do not cancel I thoroughly enjoy watching it on Netflix
Keep this show only good medical show on hetwork tv
