This is kind of strange news. I thought BBC had the UK rights to Parks and Recreation as they had been showing it on BBC4 but they don't. They lost the rights and it now has a new home in the UK.
The final four seasons 4-7 of Parks and Recreation will no longer be shown on BBC4 and can now be seen on the Dave channel. Seasons 4/5 will air from Mon 27th July while seasons 6/7 will follow in summer 2016. |

The show has been renewed. Not officially by A+E but the Executive Producer of the show has confirmed by Twitter it's coming back next year for season 4 so not to worry.

NETFLIX have confirmed a new show. Following the recent announcement of Degrassi ending, Netflix will air a new spin off called Degrass: New Class. With so many of their new shows hitting so many different audiences, it was eventual they would cater to the teen market.

Oh will A&e just bloody renew Bates Motel already
I won't be watching season 3 until i know the show is safe. I can sort of understand not watching a new programme until you know it hasn’t been cancelled after one season, but to not watch the 3rd season because there may not be a 4th season? I’m not criticising or judging, just curious as to your reasoning behind such a view... |

What’s your logic here? You’ve watched season 1 and season 2, but won’t watch season 3 until you know there’s going to be a season 4? Do you not start watching any season of a programme until you know it’s been renewed for another following that one?

I don't like wasting my time on shows to end on cliffhangers. If it ended in a good way or open-ended, I will watch it. If not, what is the point. It might seem daft to many but it is a logic and way that works for me. I haven't always done it. Only as of the last year. |

I’m not criticising or judging, just curious as to your reasoning behind such a view... e.g. Season 'X' of a show finishes with a cliffhanger, say a burning Mercedes in a ditch on characters wedding day, season 'X+1' gets the go ahead, but with contracts coming to an end there is no guarantee of season 'X+2', do you watch season 'X+1' and if so when? Only when season 'X+2' gets the go ahead and if it doesn't do you leave it not knowing the result of the season 'X' cliffhanger? It's hard to work out the logic of the idea. Of course those of you who worked out the thinly disguised example I used will be aware that the explanation of the cliffhanger made no sense whatsoever and that is likely to annoy some people considerably. There probably is a logic in the argument in there somewhere it's just my little brain can't get itself round it. Last edited by Hamlet77 : 10-06-2015 at 13:40. Reason: Thought of an example |

I was wondering the same thing, I see little-monster has replied something about cliffhangers and shows finishing, but what if the final season of a show started with the answer to a cliffhanger from the previous season.
I also don’t understand why you would deprive yourself of an entire season of a programme you like just because the final episode ends on an unanswered cliff-hanger. But I’m not going to criticise, everyone is of course entitled to their own opinion/logic. I’m just interested in the reasoning behind such opinion/logic...

There isn't really a proper opinion or logic really. I don't wish to waste my time on something that could end on a cliffhanger and never ever be resolved due to a cancellation. If the show is eventually cancelled and ends on a cliffhanger, I will read all what happened in that season online.

No it's fine

Only as of the last year. But say season two of a show ended on a cliffhanger, in rolls season three but you won't watch it until you know there's a season 4? Or do you just watch the first episode to resolve the cliffhanger? Then not watch any more until you know there's a season 4? |

I'm not slating this, I'm just curious. I know I've watched a few shows and been supremely annoyed by the cliffhangers.

Chicago Fire season 3 premieres on Sky Living on Tue 23rd June at 9pm. Sons of Anarchy returns to UK tv after being dropped by Ch5 and season 6 will premiere for the first time on Spike UK on Fri 26th June at 9pm. Watch has picked up the UK rights to The Strain season 2, Grimm season 5 and Beauty and the Beast season 4. Alibi has picked up the UK rights to Castle season 8 and Rizzoli and Isles season 6. Season 6 will have an extended run of 18 episodes. Dave has picked up the UK rights to Suits season 5. It's one of the channels highest rated shows and will air in August. One interesting fact about this show is that it won the Broadcast Digital Award last year for Best Programme Acquisition. |

Any news on whether Sy-Fy UK have picked up the final six-episode season of Continuum, and if so how long do they plan to make us wait for it??
Also apologies if it's already been mentioned as not gone through the entire thread but The Last Ship returns on TNT Friday June 21st, I assume Sky wil lpick that up? |
