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?
I am a physician and I greatly enjoyed the show. The cases that came in were accurate in presentation. This show deserves to have at least 4 more episodes!
I am a Physician and greatly enjoyed this series. Please renew! It is better then Gray’s Anatomy
I want the show to be renewed.love it love it .
Renew please
I really like this show. Pls renew
I want them to come back
PLEASE keep this show . I enjoy every episode.
Please don’t end Night Shift
The Night Shift is one. Of the very few show that focuses on the true sacrifices that a military member makes throughout their career. This show gives hope to those who may have lost their way after war! Yes bring it back at all cost. Servicemembers deserve at least that!
I agree.. but it needs to get back to its roots!
I agree the show should be done. This season was a huge disappointment. If it is renewed, they better fire the writers and get a new show runner.
Pull the plug unless they can improve the scripts next season! It’s been on life support all season. First season and maybe second were good. The rest? Progressively worse headed into goofy-land.
Please please please renew!!!!!
Please bring back season 5! The only reason why the reviews/ratings are 30% lower is because this show only comes on once a year during the summer for 1 season and people forget about it. I wish they could atleast show this twice yearly covering two seasons.
I hope it renewed Night Shift and I hope it doesn’t cancelled.
Please renew, love the show and can’t wait for each week to see a new episode please please please renew.
