ABC has cancelled Mistresses after four seasons, RenewCancelTV has learned.
The axe falls on Mistresses in the wake of optimistic EP Rina Mimoun pitching Season 5, which ultimately wasn’t enough to secure what would have been the soapy drama’s wrap-up season.
Mimoun said earlier this week:
“[With Season 4], they didn’t tell us to make a series finale. [We’re in the process of trying to pitch the network on the idea of] a final fling [of 13 episodes to air in 2017]. We really feel like there’s one more year of story to tell, but we’re also looking for a graceful way to wrap up the series. There’d be some new hot messes in the mix, and we’d be moving back toward the kind of racy romp that Mistresses was when it began.”
Instead, Mistresses enters the cancellation graveyard on an unresolved cliffhanger.
RIP.

It seemed like a wrap up season this season to me anyway. I liked the show in the beginning, but this season I was ready to see it go.

Such a good show. Sad to see it cancelled.
Riv says
It really did seem like a wrap-up season & they did a good job of the last episode & I was fine with all that if the show was going to end….. until that cliff hanger with Karen Kim at the very end, actually I kinda thought that was dumb cuz their friend Karen really did die when she tripped over that balcony, funeral & all, so really that did not make any sense,,, it’s not like she did not really die, went to rehab, got a new face etc, so not sure how they would have justified that part of the storyline?

This show was awesome. Bring it back. Funny how some fans say it was time to go but they were checking to see when new episode starts.
