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:
“Episode 10” ORIGINAL

What do you think? Should this be the last season for The Night Shift? Or should it be renewed for a fifth season?
Makes the summer tv viewing more tolerable. We look forward to each episode. As the seasons have progressed the acting and the story lines have gotten better and better. Hate to see them leave us.
Love, Love, Love this show! Keep it going!
If they are counting on 18-49 year olds as their main criteria, that is totally wrong. Different age groups are what purchase the products that are advertise4d. And most people that do buy products and services are usually over age 50. So the NBC “big shots” are using the wrong criteria. This show should continue, for many more years.
Glad I got to be an extra on this show before they possibly pull the plug (as a protester on the “Keep The Faith” episode); a great boon to Albquerque’s film and television scene. RIP
Ok so you take poll and 90 percent love this show and don’t want it cancelled!
Hello that should be reason enough to keep a good show with a great cast. Tired of all the same old shows . This one has great actors and keeps you interested. Yes of course there should be another season.

Give it a better what? Is that supposed to say buildup? I’m not a big fan of this show anyway… The 2 main characters are to obnoxious for my taste.

I love. This show
I was a huge fan of the first two seasons but they completely lost me after the episode in season three dealing with the racial killer.
If I want politics, I’ll turn into any one of the dozens of stations who do that, I just want to have an interesting drama without the social commentary.
Wonderful,insightful programing-give it,a better buildup,perhaps a different timeslot.keep up the great quality!
