As 2017 comes to a close, so do many television shows that we have fallen in love with. While not every season of a show is going to be a hit, there are definitely some surprises on this year’s list of cancellations. Although there’s a chance you’ll see one or two of these pop up on a different network in the future, it’s likely that most won’t see any additional episodes airing in the new year.
These days, it seems more difficult for shows to keep a good momentum going. There is so much competition from premium networks (like HBO’s Game of Thrones , Showtime’s Homeland , and Netflix’s Stranger Things, all of which are coming back in 2018) that landing a successful prime time spot and keeping it has become a serious challenge.
While some shows, like Wisdom of the Crowd starring Jeremy Piven and Natalia Tena, just don’t seem to catch on, others, like 2 Broke Girls starring Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs, tend to run their course.
There is some good news in all of this, however. All of these cancellations make room for plenty of new shows to have a chance to be the next big thing (like This Is Us ), so there’s a pretty good chance that you will end up falling in love with a new show in the new year.
