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.
How like a like a network to cancel an intelligent TV show and put on sox ridiculous sitcoms and or reality shows.
Please bring Tyrant back it’s one of the best shows I have ever seen
I love this show, and very upset about not having a season 4. Bring it back!!!!
U guys can’t just close like dat… Tyrant has been one of the best series iv had from u guys.
I strongly dont agree with u
Loved this series and so looked forward to watching it every week Please bring it back
Absolutely LOVED this series (along with all my friends). Please, please bring it back, one of the best shows on TV!!
One of the better series on TV and cast during a time of interest in Middle East affairs.
I was so looking forward to season4. I absolutely love the show and all the actors. It’s sit on the edge of your seat drama and I pray that Tyrant gets picked up for another season. Awesome shiw
Very dissapointed that you guys left us all hanging. We we’re seeing what life can be like in the Middle East.
Need to bring the show back. How unfair to cancel the series without closure.
Renew Tyrant… Absolutely loved the series and particularly Adam Raynor
Would really love to see the series continue!!! One of my favorite – great cast, well acted and a gripping story. Please reconsider!!!!!
I’m suprised to see fox cancelled season 4,d@ series is on another level.So far a’d say it’s the best.
We just finished the series and were anticipating season 4. When I looked it up on line I found out it ended in season 3. I hope someone picks it up. You can’t just leave all the loose ends. How does the war go? Will Lela really take over? Well Bassam step down? Is Molly pregnant? Well Sam walk again? The list goes on.
That is too bad really loved the show was Looking forward for season 4
