Canceled!? Big Budget TV Shows On The Chopping Block

22. Black-ish

Network: ABC
Status: Renewed For Eighth and Final Season

Created by Kenya Barris, “Black-ish” made its way to the small screen in the fall of 2014, and backed by the star power of Morpheus himself, Laurence Fishburne has been a mainstay on ABC’s roster ever since. As an executive producer for the show Fishburne also had a bit of a personal stake in the series.

The ratings, and the number of viewers that “Black-ish” has been receiving, have been on a constant decline for each of the 7 seasons that the show has been on the air, and, as a result of these numbers, Kenya Barris has decided that following the eighth season it will finally be time to step away-ish – there might be a Fishburne-led spin-off in the works.
