Y’all. It has been a ROUGH year for a lot of TV shows, even those you think might’ve been successful (sometimes it’s hard to tell because streamers aren’t so forthcoming with their numbers).

When shows like Netflix’s Dead Boy Detectives gets the axe, you start to worry. But it’s not just streaming subscription services that are canceling shows. Nope, networks have really jumped on the show cancellation trend, too. We previously learned about cancellations on CBS and other networks, but we’ve now got one to tell you about that just happened on FX: The Old Man will not be returning for a third season.
According to Variety, The Old Man has been canceled after two seasons on FX. The series was based on a novel by Thomas Perry and starred Jeff Bridges as a former CIA operative. During the show’s first season, the series followed his character, Dan Chase, after he killed a home intruder and went into hiding. The second season revolved around Chase working to recover his daughter, who was kidnapped by an Afghan tribal leader.

The show also starred John Lithgow, Alia Shawkat, and Navid Negahban. The season 1 cast also featured E.J. Bonilla and Bill Heck, while season 2 included Jacqueline Antaramian, Amy Brenneman, and Gbenga Akinnagbe. The show premiered in June 2022 and was a critical success and seemed popular enough. Season 2 also seemed to maintain a positive response from critics and viewers, but the show’s audience did decline between seasons, possibly due to a long hiatus.
