According to JustJared, CBS made headlines by canceling “S.W.A.T.,” “FBI: Most Wanted,” “FBI: International,” “The Equalizer,” “Poppa’s House,” and “The Summit.” NBC followed with the end of “Night Court,” “Lopez vs. Lopez,” “Found,” “The Irrational,” “Suits LA,” and “Grosse Pointe Garden Society.” ABC cut “Doctor Odyssey” despite strong early ratings and wrapped “The Conners” with its final season. Fox dropped “The Cleaning Lady,” “Alert: Missing Persons Unit,” and “Rescue: HI-Surf.”

Streaming services have been just as aggressive. Netflix canceled “The Recruit,” “Fubar,” “Duster,” “Pulse,” “Harlem,” and confirmed that “The Sandman” will not continue. Prime Video axed “The Wheel of Time,” “Harlem,” “Clean Slate,” and “Étoile.” Hulu ended “The Handmaid’s Tale” and “How to Die Alone,” while Max removed “The Sex Lives of College Girls” and the revival of “Frasier.” HBO wrapped “And Just Like That…” after three seasons. Disney+ cut “Goosebumps” after two seasons, though the series is being shopped elsewhere.

Even cable channels joined the wave. Syfy canceled “Resident Alien” after four seasons, Paramount+ ended “Happy Face,” and TLC pulled “Polyfamily.” ITV shut down Noel Edmonds’s “Kiwi Adventure” after just one season, citing low ratings. HGTV removed multiple shows from its lineup, including “Bargain Block,” “Married to Real Estate,” and “Christina on the Coast.”

Not all departures are cancellations—some are planned finales that still mark the close of beloved series. Netflix will end “Stranger Things” with its final season later this year. “Cobra Kai,” “The Righteous Gemstones,” “Upload,” “Solar Opposites,” and “Outlander” are also concluding. Late-night mainstay “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” will wrap, along with “Big Mouth,” “The Neighborhood,” and “Queer Eye.”

The volume and variety of cancellations in 2025 signal a major turning point for television, but it’s not all bittersweet farewells. Many of the year’s most anticipated moments are still ahead, as fan-favorite series like “Stranger Things,” “Cobra Kai,” “Outlander,” and “The Righteous Gemstones” gear up for their final chapters. These upcoming finales promise big story payoffs, emotional goodbyes, and plenty of conversation as they bring beloved worlds to a close. For viewers, it’s a rare chance to celebrate the shows that defined the last decade while getting ready to discover the next wave of breakout hits waiting to take their place.
