Tommy won’t be back on patrol next season. CBS just announced that the network has cancelled the cop drama and won’t be ordering a second season for the 2020-21 broadcast season.
The Tommy series revolves around a former high-ranking NYPD officer who becomes the first female chief of police for Los Angeles. Abigail “Tommy” Thomas (Edie Falco) uses unflinching honesty and hardball tactics to keep social, political, and national security issues from hindering effective law enforcement in the Southland. The CBS drama also stars Michael Chernus, Adelaide Clemens, Thomas Sadoski, Russell G. Jones, Olivia Lucy Phillip, Joseph Lyle Taylor, and Vladimir Caamaño.
Airing on Thursday nights, the first season of Tommy averages a 0.49 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 4.85 million viewers. The cancellation doesn’t come as much of a surprise as the drama is the network’s lowest-rated scripted series.
The 12th and final installment of Tommy airs tomorrow night.
What do you think? Do you watch Tommy? Would you have watched season two on CBS?
So glad to see it go, it was so contrived and unbelievable, should CBS not spring for a police consultant to coach them on how to wear uniforms, (not have female officers, not Tommy, who have 3 and 4 ear piercings which is against lapd regs)
Love this show . Why is cbs canceling so they can put on another reality show really !! Edie Falco is a amazing
Actress . She helped make the Soprano’s the greatest
show on HBO .
CBS made a mistake with this cancellation. Tommy is a great drama. Had good characters and storylines that I cared about. There was a plethora of shows you could have dumped. Tommy was not one of them. Dang, it!
I’m sorry to hear “Tommy” is cancelled. It is a great show, with a great cast, and story line. It was the best new show this season!!
What a shame , this was a great show. I’m shocked it’s being canceled. Definitely needed a second season. Bad move cbs bad move. So much crap shows on that stay, now a great one getting canceled. Makes no sense.
Loved Tommy can’t believe it was cancelled. Just getting good.
I enjoyed this show and sorry to see it go. There’s so much to watch on TV maybe more could have been done to promote it. What other shows is it competing with during its prime time spot?
Really liked this show. Storylines believable and entertaining. Only drama I can stay awake to watch. Please don’t cancel.
I like Tommy. Cancellation is a big CBS mistake.
As usual, network execs got their head up you no where. Only thing CBS seems to care about are crappy reality shows and how to get you to pay for their on demand service. Grow up guys.
Ive watched it from the beginning. Really like ie it. Not sure why its been cancelled. Didnt even give it a chance
What? So enjoyed this show and am surprised that it was not given a second season. Bring it back!
WE LOVE TOMMY….WHY DO YOU GUYS CANCEL GOOD SHOWS….PLEASE RETHINK THIS
