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?
I looked forward to this show every week. It tackled difficult and current issues, and portrayed decent, moral, upstanding characters. I was looking forward to season 2. Please bring it back!
Great show! It’s one of my favorite shows along with Blue Blood. CBS should bring back Tommy.
My wife and I enjoyed Tommy
I wish it would be back.
This was an excellent show. CBS should renew!!! At the very least it should be given a second season. Cancel Broke instead!!!
It was a great show and should be renewed
I really liked this show. Edie Falco is one of my favorite TV actresses. Please reconsider its cancellation, CBS. Edie Falco portrays a strong and decisive woman whom we need in these times of turmoil and uncertainty. Again, please bring her back.
Every time there is a good show, it is cancelled…. All the networks want is more stupid, mindless reality crap & game shows…. So many real shows never make it because they are not given a chance… No wonder so many now watch cable, might as well get rid of the networks, they are clueless about what people want to watch….
You need to bring back Tommy, I love the show. CBS has aired numerous shows that suck and had more than one season. Give her a chance, another season maybe ratings will go up second season.
Disappointing news about cancellation. I enjoyed Season 1 and was looking forward to Season 2.
Tommy is one of the best shows on this year. We loved it. Very sad they CBS couldn’t give it another season or 10. I hope they consider bringing it back.
CBS doesn’t want to leave a show on for us intelligent people, we’re stuck with stupidness like MacGyver . I look forward to Thursday nights
This is a terrific show with a lousy time slot – please rethink CBS and find the right place for it.
We love this show! Again women who shine get smacked down!
Tommy is my favorite new show and everyone I know agrees. I was looking forward to many seasons of a show that is timely, multi-dimensional, and well balanced between human relationships and police grit. Please, please, please bring it back .
TOTALLY AGREE. PLEASE bring it back!
Tommy is a female version of Frank Reagan of Blue Bloods. I really hope you bring back Edie Falco. Bring back, bring back my Tommy to me, to me. You are breaking my heart during these COVID 19 times.
