Tyrant was cancelled after just three seasons on FX, and the reasons behind the shocking cancellation have now been revealed. Bert Salke, the FOX 21 President, spoke about those reasons with The Hollywood Reporter.
Salke said the following:
“We knew after the second year and were really aware that for a show we felt so strongly about — and the fan base felt so strongly about — that the numbers weren’t commensurate with the base for the show. Nobody was more aware than the FX people and John wanted to get in front of it. Chris, Howard and the studio went in with very open eyes and hoping for the best. We were getting behind it the same way we do every year and preparing for any number of outcomes. There were no surprises.”
There is hope that the series will return. Tyrant is being actively shopped to streaming services. It could land on Netflix or Hulu.
Do you want a fourth season of Tyrant? Tell us what you think.
i luv tyrant plz bring it back
Yes, please. We were certainly looking forward to another season. We want to find out what happens and want to see Barry get back on track as a good person.
The show had a gripping story line and feeling of realness not felt elsewhere. The harsh dynamic of the setting for the show, timely for today’s news, made it a great vehicle for many many issues. FX should do a marathon replay of the series to gauge the possibility of its revival or enhance its sale to another studio.
Give us season 4. Im crying.
Absolutely loved the show. Please bring it back!!!!!
I enjoyed the show, and it was good as it provided some knowledge of the Arab countries. The acting was good and the scenery was beautiful.
My family and many friends really want Tyrant to come Back. We watched it every week! Please hear our cry….We Want Tyrant to come back, PLEASE!
Very disappointed that the show Tyrant has been canceled…was looking forward to many more seasons….
Very disappointing, – this show kept my interest from start to finish (each and every episode). Not many shows can do this for me.
Love the characters and story lines. Good acting and filming.
Sad to see it end. I was looking forward to many more seasons.
I love the show tyrant please bring it back I really look forward in watching it. Why is it they always cancel good series I look forward to seeing this I hope someone picks it up please Netflix
It would be great if they would have a series finale. I was looking forward for this show to start. Just don’t leave us hanging. Bring it back on FX Thanksev
My partner has been asking me for several weeks about the return of Tyrant. It’s the only series he stayed up for. We are greatly disappointed to hear that it won’t be returning. We loved the characters and the acting and I loved the background music. Please! Bring it back.
I’m so sick ofall these good series being canceled. So many good shows like this one that we don’t get even a final good bye. So here we are again, Tyrant was an awesome show but we get no ending I’m not sure it’s worth getting into any series any more.
I couldn’t wait for it’s return. Netflix/Hulu PLEASE PICK IT UP! Great acting, great story line, GREAT SHOW!
Please bring back tyrant! The writing is great. The acting is great. I know the fan base is there. Try advertising the new series a month ahead of time on the big three, ABC, NBC, CBS.
