- CreatorTerence WinterStarsSteve BuscemiKelly MacdonaldMichael ShannonAn Atlantic City politician plays both sides of the law by conspiring with gangsters during the Prohibition era.On 1/9/14, HBO announced the Emmy-winning series would conclude with a fifth season. Series creator, Terrence Winter stated; “After much discussion with my creative team and HBO, we’ve decided to wrap the series after such a great run and look forward to bringing it to a powerful and exciting conclusion.” The series had been on-the-bubble for several seasons, so this comes as little surprise to fans of the show. The final season will air fall 2014.
- CreatorAaron SorkinStarsJeff DanielsEmily MortimerJohn Gallagher Jr.A newsroom undergoes some changes in its workings and morals as a new team is brought in, bringing unexpected results for its existing news anchor.On 1/13/14, HBO announced that the series would return for a third and final season. The series had been met with positive critical acclaim; including taking home a Primetime Emmy Award in 2013. However, ratings have not been great for the series, especially when compared to HBO’s other current programming. There have also been rumors that Aaron Sorkin’s extremely busy schedule may have been a factor in the decision to end the series at this point. This makes a total of 3 dramas that will be ending on HBO in 2014 (True Blood and Boardwalk Empire). The final season is expected to air fall 2014.
- CreatorGraham YostStarsTimothy OlyphantNick SearcyJoelle CarterEnforcing his own brand of justice, U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, a strong-willed, quiet law-man haunted by his past, returns to his native town to see that justice is served to those in need.On 1/14/14, FX CEO, John Landgraf, confirmed the next season would indeed be the last. The decision was made by executive producer Graham Yost and lead actor Timothy Olyphant. Landgraf added; “They felt that the arc of the show and what they had to say would be served by six seasons instead of seven, and I regretfully accepted their decision.” The fifth season is currently airing while the sixth & final season is expected to air in early 2015.
- CreatorChristopher GuestJim PiddockStarsChris O'DowdTom BennettNina ContiFrom Christopher Guest ('Best in Show, ' 'A Mighty Wind') comes this comedy series that follows one man's quest to track down his genealogy.On 1/23/14, HBO sent the freshman comedy packing. The series received a great deal of critical acclaim, but it was poor ratings that ultimately did it in.
- CreatorLee EisenbergStephen MerchantGene StupnitskyStarsStephen MerchantChristine WoodsNate TorrenceA gawky Englishman comes to Los Angeles to find the woman of his dreams.On 1/23/14, HBO cancelled the freshman comedy after one season.

The one-hour show also features revealing interviews with the world's top celebrities and newsmakers. "Showbiz Tonight" covers topics like no other entertainment news show, including these ongoing series: "Showbiz Weight Watch" -- Hollywood's obsession with weight and body image, airing Tuesdays and Fridays, and as developments warrant. "Rx for Rehab" -- The emotional stories of stars who are battling drug and alcohol abuse. "Showbiz Legal Lowdown" -- Investigative reports on celebrities who have shocking run-ins with the law or who are involved in nasty court battles. "Showbiz Truth Squad" -- Reports get to the bottom of Hollywood's biggest mysteries and set the record straight on entertainment rumors. "Showbiz Tonight" is the only entertainment news show to feature video e-mail, an exciting way for viewers to send in video of themselves to sound off on stories and segments and see their videos on "Showbiz Tonight."On 2/3/14, HLN cancelled the news program after nine years.

- CreatorSteve FranksStarsJames Roday RodriguezDulé HillTimothy OmundsonWhen a novice sleuth convinces the police he has psychic powers, he and his reluctant best friend are hired on as consultants to help solve complicated cases.On 2/5/14, USA announced the current eighth season would be the last. While many could tell that season eight was likely the last one for a while, USA remained silent on the topic until halfway through the final season. Immediately after the series finale (airing March 26th), there will be a one-hour live retrospective, Psych After Show, with the entire cast.
- CreatorFrank DarabontStarsJon BernthalMilo VentimigliaNeal McDonough1947, Los Angeles. Cop Joe Teague walks the line between the LAPD, led by William Parker, and the mob, led by Bugsy Siegel.On 2/10/14, TNT cancelled the short-lived freshman series. While the network claims it was an “event” series, creator Frank Darabont has previously indicated it was always intended to continue beyond its short first season. It seems as if TNT had given up and decided to dub it a “miniseries” in order to get possible nominations (Emmys, Golden Globes, etc.). They waited until the worst time of the year to launch a series (December) and the episodes were aired in traditional bun-off style with 2 each week. There were a total of 6 episodes, the final two airing December 18th, 2013.
- CreatorJosh BermanStarsBrooke ElliottMargaret ChoKate LeveringA vapid aspiring model killed in a car crash gets brought back to life as an intelligent, overweight lawyer, hoping to find the meaning of inner beauty.On 2/13/14, Lifetime declared the sixth season will be final season, for real this time. It was previously cancelled and then un-cancelled and given a fifth season. Of course, it was then renewed for a sixth season which will now be the last. Considering the announcement came in advance, it seems safe to say the finale will be closure-filled. The final season debuts March 23rd.
- StarsBethenny FrankelFinesse MitchellChuck NiceA talk show, hosted by Bethenny Frankel, that features interviews with many celebrities.On 2/14/14, the Bethenny Frankel-hosted talk show was cancelled. Despite globally beloved Ellen DeGeneres (who Executive Produces the show) having Frankel on her own show many times to promote “Bethenny,” it did little to help. The decision to cancel the syndicated talk show came after it lost its affiliate clearances (approximately 70% of the country); mostly to the upcoming Meredith Vieira talk show. A last attempt at saving the show was airing specials on Bravo, the network that gave Frankel a name, but it ultimately failed. New episodes will continue through May 2014.
- CreatorJoseph DoughertyOliver GoldstickI. Marlene KingStarsNicole Gale AndersonTyler BlackburnSteven CabralFive strangers are connected by the curse that has plagued Ravenswood for generations.On 2/14/14, ABC Family cancelled the freshman series after only 10 episodes. It was a spin-off of the network’s hit series, Pretty Little Liars, but it unfortunately had much lower ratings. The final episode aired February 4th. There is no word as of yet, but one can only assume a conclusion will be fit into Pretty Little Liar’s 25-episode fifth season (set to debut this summer).
- CreatorJeremy CarverAnna FrickeStarsSam WitwerMeaghan RathSam HuntingtonThree twenty-somethings share a house and try to live a normal life despite being a ghost, a werewolf, and a vampire.On 2/25/14, Syfy announced the current season is actually the final season. Despite headlines reading ‘cancelled,’ series star, Sam Witwer cleared up the confusion on Twitter by saying; "This entire season was, from inception, designed to be the last one. All stories are tied up. This was how we wanted to go :).” Witwer also stated “Wanted to tell a great story from beginning to end. We didn't want to bleed the concept dry Believe it or not -Artistic decision”. Being Human premiered in 2011 to record-breaking ratings for the network, making it Syfy’s most successful winter launch since 2005. The ratings have remained fairly steady over the years, so it looks like Witwer’s claims of the show ending on their own terms is accurate. The series finale will air April 7th.
- StarsDaniel LipshutzJaclyn LyonsJon FrancoFollows a handful of 20-somethings on Martha's Vineyard for the summer. Tight quarters, new friends and new rivals, all living, working and playing together, make this picturesque playground ripe for mischief and romance.On 3/12/14, ABC Family axed the reality series after one season.

- CreatorJeff EastinStarsMatt BomerTim DeKayWillie GarsonA white-collar criminal agrees to help the FBI catch other white-collar criminals using his expertise as an art and securities thief, counterfeiter, and conman.On 3/20/14, USA announced the series would conclude with a shortened sixth season. The series was a smash hit when it debuted in 2010, but it had begun to slowly decline around season three. Season five saw very low ratings, so this is not a huge surprise. The final season will consist of 6 episodes, bringing the series total to 81.
Update: The final season will begin airing November 6th. - CreatorBreckin MeyerStarsDanny MastersonMichael CassidyAdam BuschComedy following the misadventures of four buddies who work together at a magazine.On 5/11/14, TBS cancelled the sitcom after three seasons.

- StarsArsenio HallAlex AlRobin DiMaggioNineteen years after the original run, Hall returned with another season of his late-night talk show. The show predominately featured African-American celebrities.On 5/30/14, the syndicated late-night series was cancelled. Hall had a late-night series by the same name which rand from 1989-1994, but he eventually called it quits. CBS Television Distribution decided to call it quits this time around because the revival “did not grow its audience enough” to continue. A total of 158 episodes were produced.
- StarsJamie DeenJack DeenBrooke DeenOn 6/15/14, Food Network cancelled the cooking show after two seasons. Deen is expected to have a new project in the near future.

It’s been a blast but it’s time to call it a day.” There are four new episodes being filmed which will be the final episodes.
- CreatorDan SchneiderStarsJennette McCurdyAriana GrandeCameron OcasioA pair of roommates start a baby-sitting service to earn extra cash.On 7/13/14, Nickelodeon officially pulled the plug on the freshman series. The show was put on a “permanent hiatus” in April due to constant behind-the-scenes drama where the two leads allegedly did not get along. Jenette was apparently never happy with being on the show from the beginning and there were also rumors of upset over who received the bigger paycheck. There could have been other reasons for the cancellation, but this would not be the first time a show was cancelled over actors acting up. Nickelodeon is likely furious since this was their highest-rated series while airing. Only 35 episodes of the 40 were completed, the final one airing July 17th.
- CreatorRobert RodatStarsNoah WyleDrew RoyMaxim KnightSurvivors of an alien attack on earth gather together to fight for their lives and fight back.On 7/18/14, TNT announced the series would conclude with a 10-episode fifth season in 2015. The series started with very big ratings and while they have slowly decreased over the seasons, they remain decent. However, the early renewal for a final season is no surprise because its ratings have reached new lows during the currently airing fourth season. Many viewers have also begun to lose interest with the series, which may be a factor in the ratings dropping fairly low.
- CreatorMichael Dante DiMartinoBryan KonietzkoStarsJanet VarneyP.J. ByrneDavid FaustinoAvatar Korra fights to keep Republic City safe from the evil forces of both the physical and spiritual worlds.On 7/24/14, the creators of the show confirmed the fourth season would be the last.
