NBC Shockingly Cancels 5 Scripted Shows, Including Network Favorites ‘Night Court’ and ‘Found’

NBC rolled out a bunch of show cancellations on Friday, May 9, leaving viewers completely shocked that their favorite programs have gotten the axe.

It’s sadly the end of the line for the Night Court revival. The show has been canceled after three seasons on the network. The season 3 finale, which ended up being the series finale, aired on Tuesday, May 6. The show starred Melissa Rauch and John Larroquette.

Before the show’s cancellation, Melissa, 44, told TV Insider on Tuesday, May 6, that there was a “spectacular plan” for season 4.

“There will be some questions that we desperately want to answer in a season 4 [after this finale], and we have a really spectacular game plan in place if that should happen,” she told the outlet. “So they very much intend to answer the huge questions about Spencer that this episode raised. Abby has been engaged before, after all. She was engaged to Rand (Pete Holmes) in season 1 before breaking it off, and then she’s had this ongoing romance with Jake throughout seasons 2 and 3. But she’s been married all along, and to someone who seems to have no idea whatsoever that his wife has been dating other people.”

Night Court wasn’t the only network show to take a hit. Found was canceled by NBC after two seasons. The season 2 finale, which will serve as a series finale, will air on May 15. While the series was canceled on NBC, Deadline reported that Found “may be shopped by its lead studio Warner Bros. Television.”

Found starred Shanola Hampton as Gabrielle “Gabi” Mosely. She previously teased what’s to come in the season 2 finale before NBC canceled the show.

“As we are on this sort of crazy runaway train to the finale, everything feels unhinged, and Gabi handles everything, but it all is coming to a head and it comes to a head in a way that I don’t think the fans will expect because it also comes to an end that makes you think, well, where do we go from here now? That’s always the craziest place to be,” she told TV Insider in an interview shared on Thursday, May 8. “Even after Season 1, right, Sir’s out of the basement, everyone was saying, OK, so where do we go from here? And then we have this crazy Season 2 and the way the Gabi handles moving forward now will leave us being like, OK, wait, now. So where do we go from here?”

In addition to the cancellations of Night Court and Found, The Irrational, which starred Jesse L. Martin, was also canceled. It ran for two seasons and ended on a cliffhanger on March 25.

A fourth series, Suits LA, was canceled at NBC after only one season. The spinoff of USA Network‘s hit Suits starred Stephen Amell as Ted Black, Lex Scott Davis as Erica Rollins, Josh McDermitt as Stuart Lane and Bryan Greenberg as Rick Dodson. The season 1 finale will air on May 18.

Additionally, the network canceled Lopez Vs. Lopez, the comedy starring George Lopez and Mayan Lopez. After the news was made public, Mayan, 29, spoke out in an Instagram Story, sharing a screenshot of an article about the show’s cancellation.

“I’ll say more soon but yeah just in shock and grateful for what we created and thank you all who loved our show like I did .. Lopez family forever,” she wrote alongside the screenshot.
