Production information and series' plot

Unforgettable is an American mystery and police procedural television series.It originally aired on CBS on September 20, 2011, was then canceled, then pickedup for two more seasons and canceled again. After this tumultuous chain of events at CBS, the series was picked up by the A&E network where its fourth season aired on November 24, 2015.

The series' concept is based on a short story “The Rememberer” by J.Robert Lennon, developed by Ed Redlich and John Belucci and produced by Timberman-Beverly Productions, CBS Television Studios and Sony Pictures Television.

The protagonist, police detective Carrie Wells (Poppy Montgomery) has hyperthymesia, which is a rare condition that entails having an utterly perfect visual memory. She joins the NYPD partly in hope of investigating the only day in her life that she can't remember – the day of her sister's murder.

Critical reception and chances of renewal

The opinions of the critics and the audience are split on this one – some love it, others simply hate it. The concept seems worthwhile to most viewers, and the lead heroine's casting is also agreed upon as successful. Those who dislike Unforgettable cite the lack of chemistry between the leads, lack of investigative intrigue and holes in the script. The ratings are unimpressive, 0.2 among adults 18-49 in Live+3, and a 1.12 million total viewers for the premiere episode of the current season, and they don't seem to be picking up so far. Will Unforgettable survive and resurface for another season? It might still go either way, so stay tuned and find out when A&E makes a decision.

Latest news

Updated February 17, 2016: After being resuscitated twice and brought back onto the small screen, first by CBS, and then by A&E, Sony TV's Unforgettable has been canceled following the wrap up of the fourth season. The ratings were, as we have previously reported, very low, and after a promising midseason uptick, have dropped again in the second half of the season.

Unforgettable was a must watch for me. The only time I have ever checked to see when a programme was coming on again. Only to find it has been cancelled. That is a truly sadistic act! Stopping when there should obviously be more! At88 this is a bitter disappointment and it appears there are many others who feel the same way. Cannot understand the mentality of the people in charge who have done this to viewers. Loyalty cuts both ways. Think viewers will not watch your shows again after this disappointment.

I don’t usually watch TV cop shows but this one was great. Maybe they should bring it back and try again. I never heard of the show found it on Freevee. I agree with everyone maybe a movie that ties it all together. It’s been 7 years and who knows where the team is.

I just finished seeing the unforgettable all 4 seasons like 2 hours ago. Loved the show. But had to repeat and look at the last episode for season 4. I was like no this can not happen. Started looking for season 5 and there is none. That’s so sad I was so into this show. Smh hope they do a season 5 with at least a happy ending from Carrie and Al. 😞

Why, why, why, please have a series 5 as I loved this show all the main actors were brilliant and you cannot leave it like that! Surely they meant to kill Carrie because they realised she did not kill who she was meant to and they realised she must have remembered what and who they now need to get. Just as Al said he loved her too!!!! Please do another series.

Why?? Why did you just abruptly end this series in such a terrible way? After 4 seasons the viewers are vested in the characters and their stories! Please do a finale and give closure to the series.

You can’t just cancel a show with an ending like that, does he live, does he die, who shot him and why?
Charmed (the original) is my all time favourite series and I love the fact they gave them a final season to finish the programme off and the final episode was truly magical to watch.
Give Unforgettable the chance to finish the program off with style and not leave viewers with a bitter after taste.

Loved the series, shocked by the ending only to find that there is no season 5. Get so frustrated that we as the viewers are treated so badly. Why end a series , knowing that we would not get to see what happens, no closure. This isn't the first time. Will start checking them before I start watching in the future.

What a blow to the fans! That ending was so unexpected and terrible! I guess you ended it like that to continue season 5 later but changed your mind! Thanks a lot! (Sarcastic).

I don’t understand how a great series gets cancelled since I read mostly rave reviews and other fans’ comments about how they liked the series. You should listen to the fans!

I hope your favorite show ends like that!

Totally agree with Al & Del these networks need to give us closure on these series. Unforgettable and the Glades have horrible endings , wish I googled the Glades as I watched it after it was off air and I wouldn't of wasted my time.

I am so disappointed. I binged the show for 3 days to get ready for what I thought would be the next season. To say I'm disappointed is an understatement. Couldn't they at least do a 2 hour tv movie wrapping up the program (which was awesome) and giving the fans closure.

I just got through watching season 4 of unforgettable. I am shocked with the ending. After all the time I spent watching this and it ended awful. What a waste of time especially yo find out there is not another season. That is ridiculous. No show should end that way. I guess you are right to name it that. It will be unforgettable. A bitter taste in my mouth! Yuck!

I'm disappointed the series ended. I liked the characters and the story line. I guess it's
all about the money. If it's not drawing enough viewers it can't last. I enjoyed the series
and wish it would continue.

I really do hope you bring the show back like how could y’all just leave us on a cliffhanger go find who shot Al I want to know what happens next I’m like so hooked also whomever said the Leads lacked chem are bull bc I am always criticizing a movie/show being I hardly watch TV and when I do it must be perfect like I can’t watch those shows where ppl be lipping like why are you an actor/actress if you can’t even act like it’s you that’s talking like I can see your lips moving behind the words that are supposed to be coming out and also see mistakes when they say the wrong thing then get back on track although honestly they weren’t ever on track from the start so like yeah this show had me hooked like there was none of that and the actors draw you in make it feel like you’re right in the middle of it all like that’s just how great their chemistry was I can’t believe the show was canceled so many times hopefully it comes back I need the rest she was just about to say she loves Al

Please bring the show back it was a good show.
When it was coming on when you played rerun most people thought it was off you never explained like you do now when the new season was coming back.
I think you should bring the show back.
Thank you

:(((: i adored this show. But am very upset at final episode. Carrie doesnt even get a chance to finish her sentence to Al : I love you. He deserves to atleast hear that. And he should survive. I couldnt wait to watch this show every day. Still watch the reruns on regular tv and still get mad as hell when Al gets shot. I keep thinking they must have a season 5by now picking up with Al getting shot. Come on writers!!! Be nice and reward your faithful watchers. We are still here.

Loved this series. Watched the whole lot on Alibi, downloaded everything and watched two or three every day.
Series 4 the last episode requires another few series. It is absolutely fantastic, missing it already.
Please please series 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 at least.

I loved the show yes Carrie did keep on about her condition but it cannot be left like that I'm sick of watching American series that get cancelled and we're left hanging, Al got shot? so what happens next? Don't think I'll bother watching any more American tv.

I was an avid fan of the show when it first came out. I lost track of the show when watching a series was a luxury of time. I started to binge-watch old series on Amazon Prime when I came across 'Unforgettable' once again. If the writers knew anything about the cancellation of Season 5, they were cruel to the fans. If they did not, Sony was cruel to the writers and the cast. The cliffhanger at the end of season 4 was not a way to treat the dedicated fan of this show.
One thing that did bother me was what seemed like a continuous change in the supporting cast. It would take me a while to 'warm' up to the new members and their personalities. I liked both sets of cast members, before and after coming to NYC, I wish that Sony would have allowed filming of a Finale to wrap all of the characters and storylines up before totally cancelling the show. It would have been a courteous thing to do for the fans.

I absolutely agree! I just finished watching the four seasons on Roku channel and I was shocked and extremely disappointed that Sony/A&E left it as they did. I can imagine wrapping it up with Al barely surviving the gunshot and he and Carrie ultimately getting married and “living happily ever after,” but it would be much more satisfying to actually watch it than to have to imagine the ending. The only thing I didn’t like about the show was Carrie’s attitude toward her hyperthymesia. In my opinion, she seemed too boastful and condescending, especially toward Al, who obviously adored her. Her constant emphasis on her ability got old to me. I loved Al’s character; I certainly hope he survived!

Well if anything... that ending was unforgettable. What a major shock! I didn't realize Shakespeare wrote this. I'm rather [censored]ed. Great show, though. I would recommend it to my dad. He loves a good cop saw and with actress Poppy M. well she is beautiful and a great actress. I watched every episode and enjoyed most of them. I do agree that they should not have kept changing some of the actors and well, realistically Carrie should have died back in season 2 with all those close calls.
She's like a cat with 9 lives. Someone should definitely revamp this story and bring it back with a happier ending.
