Unforgettable seems to be one of those shows that just won’t stay cancelled. Deadline is reporting that A&E is finalizing a deal to save the twice-cancelled series from the grim reaper with a fourth season of 13 episodes.
The series was cancelled (for the second time) the series quite awhile ago but Sony has been working to find a new home for the crime drama.
The contracts with the cast have all expired but at least Poppy Montgomery and Dylan Walsh are expected to be back. No word yet on the other castmembers. Series creators John Bellucci and Ed Redlich (as executive producers) will return along with Sarah Timberman and Carl Beverly.
Unforgettable did skew older on CBS so the pick-up by A&E does seems like a bit of a surprise since they cancelled Longmire for attracting an older audience. The difference between the two is said to be the licensing fees.
Both are produced by outside studios. Longmire was quite expensive for the cable channel (they supposedly lost money on the deal) while Unforgettable is not. The latter does quite well internationally which has allowed Sony to keep the fees down and profitable.
Sony has a history of fighting to keep cancelled shows alive and has found new homes for Community, Damages, and Drop Dead Diva.
No word on when the fourth season of Unforgettable will be produced but an official announcement is expected once the deal is sealed.
What do you think? Are you glad that Unforgettable is being revived again? Will you be watching season four?
Will watch this Glad to see it picked up by A&

This was one of the best shows in a very long time! It held our interest and couldn’t
wait until it came on again. We are so sick and tired of reality shows, horror, vampire
and sitcoms like Broke Girls and most of the new ones. We need this one to be back on the air. We don’t need any drugs, murders, infidelity, prostitution etc.. Want to know why
our country is the way it is………..look at tv. We feel the same as Joseph L Arnold’s comments.
I enjoyed watching Unforgettable and look forward to watching it again. I hope A&E will air the first 3 seasons also. Thank you A&E!!
yes I was mad both times it wascancled
Odd that they say Unforgettable did better internationally than Longmire considering Robert Taylor (Sheriff Longmire) is Australian but puts on an amazingly convincing American accent..
For those who don’t know, actress Marilu Henner actually has hyperthymesia or highly superior autobiographical memory, and was a consultant for the Unforgettable. Hopefully, she’ll be returning in that capacity, as well.
I am very happy that A&E pick up unforgettable. Its one of my favorite shows. I have been waiting to find when it will air and what time is it going to air. Please let me the date and time it airs please. I don’t want to miss the first airing of the show. joanne price
Glad it was saved and will be watching once it begins airing again! Thank you A&E!
Love this show. When will it air again on A&E? Does anyone know.
I will most certainly be watching Season 4 on A&E. I’m stoked, that A&E has saved the show. Thanks, Sony and A&E… For finding a new home, for a Great Show!
With the on slot of vampires, ghouls , heavy bloody violence, comedy that’s vulgar not funny, and spin offs which look more like REPEATS yet they cast aside original plot shows with good actors featuring action, humor and just enough romance to keep us looking forward to and watching the next show. Has anyone thought about the impact that horror, graphic violence and disrespect towards authority has on society today? No? Just read the daily paper and watch the news.
bring back shows like Unforgettable and Longmire for the more mature audiences. We don’t all kike to watch simpleton shows or ones which strain belief.
I like watching Unforgettable, The Mentalist, Ghost Whisperer, and I forgot the show where the woman had dreams and then the event would really happen in a day or so? Anything to do with the mind/paranormal/psychic, etc. really keep my interest. I even DVR them to watch them later in the week if I’m going to miss it. Although sometimes, you can tell when an actor/actress looks tired or irritable on an episode. Wonder if that’s a factor too on their ratings? I could see friction on Jennifer Love-Hewitt’s face during the last season/episodes, or was there issues with the… Read more »
