TV Shows Canceled in 2025: Here Are All the Shows Ending This Year
Looking at the list of TV shows canceled in 2025, there are definitely at least one or two gems weâll want to re-stream in the future. Thatâs one good thing about living in the streaming age: Even when your favorite shows get canceled, you can still (for the most part) revisit them whenever you wish.
Still, many fans are understandably devastated when beloved projects meet their end too soon. On July 2, Deadline reported that Netflix officially canceled Pulse and The Residence, two freshman series that many fans wish were given more time. âThe Residence had potential like Knives Out,â one fan said of the comedy helmed by Orange Is the New Black alum Uzo Aduba. âWe need more whodunnit tv shows and that was a masterpiece!!!â
Thankfully, some shows still have the potential to be saved by another network. According to Deadline, Amazon Primeâs new police procedural On Call, starring Pretty Little Liarsâ Troian Bellisario, is currently being considered by two other platforms.
Of course, not all series that are ending this year were technically âcanceled.â Some, such as The Summer I Turned Pretty and The Righteous Gemstones, are simply coming to their natural ends.
Here are the shows that wonât be returning to your screens after 2025.

CBSThe Late Show with Stephen Colbert: Well, kind of. It was announced this year, but the show wonât actually be ending until 2026, and the timing isâŠsuspicious, to say the least. Sure, thereâs a good argument that the move was financially motivated, but did they even try cutting corners, or did they just want outspoken Trump critic Colbert off the air so Trump would okay the upcoming Paramount/Skydance merger?
The Equalizer: Queen Latifahâs crime drama was canceled after five seasons. Even worse, news of the cancelation came after the season-five finale, which will now serve as the showâs send-off. Latifah starred as an ex-CIA operative in the reboot of the â80s series of the same name, which also inspired the movie franchise starring Denzel Washington.
S.W.A.T.: It may be ending, but S.W.A.T. has to be one of TVâs most successful reboots. It was based on the 1970s series of the same name and premiered in 2017, going on to last eight seasons. S.W.A.T. narrowly escaped cancelation after its sixth season in 2023, per Deadline.

HBOThe Righteous Gemstones
And Just Like ThatâŠ: Everyone’s favorite hate-watch was finally getting good with the ouster of Aidan, but surprise! The finale of season three is actually a series finale. Sarah Jessica Parker posted an emotional farewell to Carrie Bradshaw thatâs way more Carrie than the ânovelâ sheâs supposedly been writing all season.

The Righteous Gemstones: A true IYKYK created by Danny McBride, The Righteous Gemstones starred McBride, Adam DeVine, John Goodman, Edi Patterson, and Cassidy Freeman as a family of ultra-wealthy televangelists and megachurch pastors.

Bookie: This comedy starred Sebastian Maniscalco as a veteran sports-betting bookie in Los Angeles, navigating his clients and also the rise of online gambling. In February, the network announced the second season would be its last.

The Sex Lives of College Girls: Mindy Kalingâs series about, well, the sex lives of college girls comes to an end after three seasons, with our titular âgirlsâ still in their sophomore year.

Paramount+Halo: The adaptation of the hit game will get a real halo in TV heaven as it ends after two seasons.
Frasier: The 2023 revival of Frasier, which was itself a spin-off of Cheers, was canceled after two seasons. It seems that, even with Kelsey Grammer returning for the titular role, there was only so much juice left in this 40-year-old character.
