The decision to cancel the young Shakespeare drama series comes on the heels of last night’s Will season one and unintentional TV series finale episode, “Once, Bright Angel.” The first season of Will premiered on TNT on July 10, 2017.
The Will TV series stars Laurie Davidson as William Shakespeare. The TNT cast also includes Olivia DeJonge, Jamie Campbell Bower, Mattias Inwood, Ewen Bremner, Colm Meaney, William Houston, Lukas Rolfe, Max Bennett, and Jasmin Savoy Brown.

Makes me sad:( was really looking forward to it continuing. I enjoyed it and want more!!!
I’m so incredibly disappointed! I loved this show. The cast was wonderful and the show was very well written. I will miss it.
Liked the stories, liked the characters, bright costumes and scenery
Sorry to See it end. Went out on a high note. Thought it was well doe, interesting characters
What an AMAZING series! I simply loved it! sorry to see it cancelled!
I too agree with the lovers of Will….. actors wow great JOB! Far better than some of the other things you see on tv…. watching the tales of William Shakespeare unfold…. knowing the play’s in your head and giving / watching reasons to why he wrote them ….. simply brilliant…. it takes its views into the 16th centuary…. for those few minuets and you become apart of history….. shame to see it go…. when I’m sure there could have been so many more plots and twists and familiar phases ….
Well foo…Of COURSE it didn’t gain ratings. After episode one they moved it t 11 pm EDT! It didn’t fail. TNT killed it. Such a shame!
Oh my gosh! So dissapointed!!! Will was our favorite show in a really long time!! Ugh!! TNT
Again, jerks cancelling a great show! I’m 68 and not in your ratings of 18-49! THAT NEEDS TO BE UPDATED B/C 18 YEAR OLDS ARE NOT SITTING AND WATCHING WILL!!!
I agree with all the other comments. IM sad. I absolutely loved binge watching.
I loved Will, and am upset that it has been cancelled. I think it needed to be better promoted and have had a different time schedule. I hope TNT decides to make a season 2 with a better time schedule, a better release time (in maybe mid fall to winter) and be advertised better. All in all Will was one of my favorite shows and I’m really hoping a season 2 starts to be in the making, it has potential.
I am so very disappointed that TNT has decided to cancel this show. The summer time slot didn’t work for me – I always planned to watch the entire season at the end of summer. I am so glad I did!! The cast and story line were wonderful. I have recommended it to so many people. I am so sad the it won’t continue- hopefully another network will pick it up and give it the attention and recognition it deserves!! ☹️
I didn’t watch it while it was airing but saw it on demand and I love it I’d totally watch season 2
I thought this was a very well done show. I hope the network will reconsider. I agree with some of the other comments that the show needed to be marketed better. It deserves another chance.
