It looks like the singing is over for The Sing-Off on NBC — at least for now.
The a capella singing competition debuted in December 2009 and ran for just four episodes. It was renewed for a second season of five episodes. The network execs then decided to try The Sing-Off as a regular fall series but the ratings really suffered.
It was believed to be cancelled but NBC revived the show for a fourth season that aired during the holidays to low ratings.
A fifth season was ordered but the network ended up making it a two hour special instead. That aired December 17, 2014 and drew more low ratings.
There’s been no word on the fate of The Sing-Off in over a year and the NBC site hasn’t been updated since December 2014. What’s more, the official casting site still reflects the Fall 2014 audition information.
So, it appears that the show is over — at least for now. Networks bring shows back all the time these days so the series certainly could be revived at some point in the future.
What do you think? Do you like The Sing-Off TV show? Would you like to see it return for a sixth season at some point in the future?
RIP
My family and I really miss this show. Great music by talented artists in a genre not found anywhere else. PLEASE bring it back!
I really enjoyed The Sing Off. I’m waiting for it to come back on. I’m telling people about the show. Please do whatever you have to do to bring it back.
Please bring this show back. Advertise the heck out of it so the ratings go up. This is a fabulous show. Bring back Ben Folds as judge. He was perfect and on point. I loved watching it and always looked for it. I continue to.
I loved the sing off. Please bring it back.
So sorry to find out it’s been cancelled. It was THE show we really enjoyed and looked forward to each year. Now I know why we haven’t been able to find it. I agree that Dec. was the wrong time of year to show it. Please bring it back!
The best show ever; wish it would have gone on like American Idol and The Voice. Much better show and it truly showcases the what people are capable of doing to put the entire song together. One cohesive unit; Awesome, sorry about the ratings; people just don’t have the ability to appreciate true talent and quality.
yes i would love to see it back on one of the most best shows out besides the voice you guys are tripping please bring it back
There’s nothing better than Pure, Raw, un-adultrated talent. Bring the series – “The Sing Off” back. Much of the so-called music now days is nothing more than rubbish! Running the show at Christmas time was purely poor timing. Too much else is going on with families. Drop some of the filthy Sit Coms instead! Nopthing beats great harmony without instruments!
This is the best singing competition on TV – so much talent! Please bring it back!!
Please bring The Sing Off back! It was wonderful change from other singing competitions. My husband and I enjoyed every episode and were constantly entertained. The groups competing were always so talented, and I’d love to be able to see this show make a come-back!
I love this show. It shows so much talent. Please bring it back!!!
LOVED THE SHOW. TRUE SHOWING OF SOMEONES VOICE. AMAZING WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH YOUR VOICE.
Please bring the sing off back. It was a great way to find unique talent. I loved the show and look forward to seeing it back again.
I love the Sing Off. Please bring it back. That’s how we got the incredible Pentatonix!!!!
