Every year, networks and streamers say goodbye to beloved shows, and 2025 is no different. Some cancellations were shocking, while others felt inevitable.
From high-budget dramas to fan-favorite comedies, many series met their end this year. Here’s a look at all the TV shows that won’t be returning for another season.

In January, HBO canceled The Franchise after just one season. This satirical comedy followed the crew of a failing superhero film franchise, highlighting the chaos behind the scenes.
Starring Himesh Patel and Aya Cash, the show mocked Hollywood’s obsession with blockbuster films. However, it didn’t get a second chance to shine.

Apple TV+ scrapped this historical comedy in January. Starring Noel Fielding as Dick Turpin, the famous highwayman, the series blended humor and adventure.
The series was canceled in January 2025 after one season. Specific details about Noel Fielding’s absence or the second season’s production status are not confirmed.

Teacup, a horror series from producer James Wan, was canceled after just one season. Set on a mysterious Georgia ranch, the show loosely adapted Robert McCammon’s 1988 novel, Stinger.
It premiered in October 2024. Starring Yvonne Strahovski and Scott Speedman, it struggled to gain enough viewership to continue.
Despite its eerie premise and strong fan anticipation, Peacock pulled the plug in January, leaving viewers with unanswered questions about its supernatural plot.

In February, Peacock axed Hysteria! It’s a horror-comedy set in the 1980s.
The series followed a group of misfit teenagers who faked satanic rituals to boost their rock band’s popularity, only to find themselves entangled in real supernatural events. Despite its unique premise, the show was short-lived, ending after just one season.

After five seasons, FOX canceled 9-1-1: Lone Star in February. The series, starring Rob Lowe, followed Texas first responders tackling extreme emergencies.
Despite solid ratings, budget concerns led to its cancellation. Fans were disappointed, especially as its parent show, 9-1-1, had already moved to ABC, making the franchise’s future uncertain.

HBO announced The Righteous Gemstones would end after its fourth season, premiering in March. Created by and starring Danny McBride, the dark comedy followed a corrupt televangelist family.
McBride humorously claimed “the Lord” told him to end it. However, fans believe HBO made the real decision to wrap things up.

The Star Wars series Andor will conclude with its second season, debuting on April 22. Starring Diego Luna, the show explored Cassian Andor’s early days in the rebellion.
Originally planned as a multi-season series, it was shortened due to Disney’s shifting priorities. Still, fans are hopeful for more Star Wars spin-offs.

Bel-Air, a dramatic reimagining of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, will conclude after a good four seasons. The show offered a modern, serious take on the 1990s sitcom.
While it was well-received initially, viewership declined, leading Peacock to end its run in 2025. Fans remain hopeful for a potential reboot someday.

How to Die Alone was canceled after one season, leaving creator-star Natasha Rothwell “shocked and heartbroken.” The series, produced by Onyx Collective, premiered in September 2024.
Despite strong reviews, good ratings on Rotton Tomatoes, and awards recognition, low viewership led to its cancellation. Rothwell is now seeking a new platform.

The Pradeeps of Pittsburgh was canceled after one season on Prime Video. Starring Naveen Andrews and Sindhu Vee, the comedy followed an immigrant family’s journey to America and the challenges that came with such a transition.
Despite earning a high rating on Rotten Tomatoes, the show struggled to attract viewers. Thus, failed to secure a second season.

The Wipeout revival, hosted by John Cena and Nicole Byer, has been canceled after two seasons on TBS. The show featured contestants tackling extreme obstacle courses.
The show originally aired on ABC from 2008 to 2014. The reboot failed to maintain long-term success, leading to its cancellation in February 2025.

The Cube, hosted by Dwyane Wade, has been canceled after two seasons on TBS. The show was an American adaptation of the popular British game show.
Premiering in 2021, it featured contestants attempting high-pressure challenges inside a glass cube. Despite its unique format, the series failed to gain long-term success.

The Frasier reboot, featuring Kelsey Grammer reprising his legendary role, was canceled after two seasons in January. While the revival attempted to capture the charm of the original sitcom, it struggled with audience reception.
Paramount+ is now shopping for the series on other platforms. Fans of the series are hoping it finds a second home elsewhere.
