In Plain Sight will vanish after one more season.
USA Network has renewed the Mary McCormack-fronted drama for a fifth and final eight-episode season to air in the spring, a rep for the cabler confirms to TVLine.
“We’ve built a contract with the audience and want to give them a sense of closure,” USA Network co-president Jeff Wachtel told Variety, which first reported the news.

Oh, this is nice. I'm losing Desperate Housewives, Chuck, Eureka, and now this next year! And I just started watching IPS and Eureka.
ReplyDeletewell... at least they get a proper ending ;)
ReplyDeleteThis is true. I'm still bitter, though.
ReplyDeleteI'm just going to blame Comcast for this cancellation, just like it's probably their fault for Eureka's cancellation.
Yes proper send off, but really only 8 episodes!!
ReplyDeleteTo Marshall and Mary finally ending up together... They better or else... *shake fist vigorously at TPTB
ReplyDeleteI agree :)
ReplyDeleteEspecially after what they did to us with that storyline this season lol. I am sad we'll be losing the show but I can't wait to see what they do with a final season.
ReplyDeleteLove the show, but I'm glad it's ending in one more year.
ReplyDeleteIt's the type of series that gets stale fairly fast and episodes start to feel like they've already been done.My one hope is they don't throw Marshall and Mary together.
Somehow this was the one USA show I never got around to watching. Sucks that it's already going to be over next year.
ReplyDeleteI'm okay with this. This show had a good run.
ReplyDeleteMy dad is going to be unhappy. He likes this show a lot. I'm a season behind but I do appreciate USA letting them know a year in advance so they can go out with a bang and on their own terms.
ReplyDeleteI at least saw 2 more seasons. Geez -- what is it with USA thinking 8 episodes is a proper send off? First LOCI and now IPS? I loved this show. Only original programming I watch on USA is Burn Notice, Psych, and it was IPS.
ReplyDeleteThis blows, bottom line.
I was shoked when I see this, I really like this series at least there is gonna be an ending.
ReplyDeleteI wasn't really expecting this :( At least we get a proper ending.
ReplyDeleteIf this doesn't happen I will cry forever.
ReplyDeleteThat's sad I erally enjoy this show, but I guess nothin lasts forever..
ReplyDeletethat is sad but it was time and I rather the show end on a high
ReplyDeleteI agree the way they ended the last season I never dreamed they'd have another season but glad to hear we are.
ReplyDelete4 real it's to good of a series to be playing w/us like that
ReplyDeleteWhy does everything I love abandones me! Mary why?????
ReplyDeleteNot happy about this at all. All the good shows are going down the tubes. Why?? Take the reality shows off. I mean really! Can't understand why people watch so many reality shows. We live reality everyday. Don't want to see it on TV too. Ugh!
ReplyDeleteNo ! I love this show ... I hope that Mary and Marshall will be together for the final !
ReplyDeletekeep hopping about Mary and Marshall but i'm affraid we will have nothing about them next season... only 8 episodes to break up the relation shio Marshall/Abbigail and i'm affraid of... Mary/ex husband .... it's really short.
ReplyDeleteI'm sad the next season will be the same, it's just the USA's choice not really the actor, just hope we will have a good end not like in Law and Order CI
Hope Mary and Marshall end up together !!! PLEASE. The whole world can see how much he loves Mary.
ReplyDeleteIT IS NOT OK, IT IS THE BEST SHOW ON TV, I WANT AT LEAST 10 SEASONS.
ReplyDelete8 episodes? Hmmm. They have to cram a ton of stuff in those episodes if they want to give us Mary/Marshall closure!
ReplyDeleteI agree, but unfortunately reality shows are cheaper and easier to make and pull in a much larger audience which equals more money...and its all about the money, not the loyal fans of the shows that actually make you think and give you a relief from the stupidity of "reality."
ReplyDeleteWHY ARE YOU ENDING THIS SHOW, IT IS THE BEST SHOW ON TV. I HAVE EVERY SHOW TAPED. EVERY SHOW WITH ALL COMMERCIALS. IF YOU CANCEL MY FAVORITE SHOW, I WILL CONTACT EVERY SPONSER AND I WILL BOYCOTT EVERY ONE OF THEM. ALSO I WILL GET ALL MY FRIENDS , RELATIVES AND ASSOSCIATES TO DO THE SAME. I WILL NOT BUY ANY OF THOSE PRODUCTS AND NEITHER WILL ANY OF MY FRIENDS , RELATIVES , AND ASSOCIATES. I HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE AND IT WORKS, I HAVE ALOT OF INFLUENCE AND I WILL USE IT. PUT THE SHOW BACK ON FOR 5 MORE YEARS AND I WILL NOT DO IT, BUT I WILL TRY TO HURT EVERY SPONSER YOU HAVE UNLESS YOU PUT MY SHOW BACK ON THE AIR FOR 5 MORE YEARS. IT IS A DECENT SHOW AND YOU WANT DECUSTING SHOWS ON . I PROMISE I WILL DO THIS. DELORES JOHNSON
ReplyDeletei will boycott all sponsers if you cancel in plain sight.
ReplyDeleteInterested to see what they will do with the final season. And it's like what, 8 episodes? That's a lot of stuff to cram in those 8 episodes. I just hope that Mary and Marshall end up happy, whether they are together or not (I'm really pulling for them to be together, have been since season 1). But they both deserve it!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely going to miss this show.
oh my God no!!!!! Every series with man/woman partnerships in law enforcement always end up like that, and that sucks!!! would be nice with something different for a change........
