UPDATED October 25, 2017: Less than two months after the most recent fourth installment of the medical drama series finished airing on the NBC channel, the network finally revealed the decision on the show’s future. The Night Shift has not been renewed for Season 5 – the show was cancelled after 4 seasons due to declining ratings. The fourth chapter finale has drawn just 3.1 million viewers as compared to 5.4 million for the third season finale.

Averaging around 5 Million viewers per episode during the third season, The Night Shift became most certainly one of the strongest scripted programs in the NBC lineup. The overall ratings score a very strong 7.4 out of 10 stars on IMDb and 7.3 out of 10 stars on TV.com and confirm the huge popularity of the series. However, season 4 ratings so far dropped to just over 4 Million – which is still very respectable – but unfortunately the demo ratings are down too, and that by a whopping 28%.

Summary and plot

The Night Shift is a medical drama TV series that follows the lives of staff who work the late night shift in the San Antonio Medical Center emergency room. Created by Gabe Sachs and Jeff Judah, the series debuted on NBC on May 27, 2014, with season four premiering on June 22nd, 2017 with ten brand new episodes.

Dr. TC Callahan (Eoin Macken) is an ex-army medic, who now works as a surgeon at the San Antonio Medical Center. His frequent quarrels with his ex-girlfriend and newly appointed night shift manager, Dr. Jordan Alexander (Jill Flint) are at the heart of the storyline. Other characters include Dr. Topher Zia (Ken Leung), a private-sector surgeon who spent a lot of time on the battlefield, hospital administrator Dr. Michael Ragosa (Freddy Rodriguez), Dr. Drew Alister (Brendan Fehr), a gay army medic who is still active in the reserves, Dr. Krista Bell-Hart (Jeananne Goossen) a young resident trying to work her way up the ranks, Dr. Paul Cummings (Robert Bailey Jr.) who works hard to emerge from his father’s shadow, and Dr. Scott Clemmens (Scott Wolfe) Chief of Surgery.

Every season I waited for Nightshift to start again I am so disappointed that it was not renewed maybe the timing of the season or the time of the show was the problem but it was not the show itself because it was great

Please bring The Night Shift show back. It is an amazing show. The episodes are full of what it could be true stories. I love all the characters but the 3rd season ended with Topher being fired. This show can't end like that..... Please let us have more seasons.

Recently found out about this show and binged watched all three seasons, please don't leave us hanging and give us at least one more season, preferably more but you can't leave it at that. You have enough fans to make it worth it and fill our summers with at least one great show to watch.
Sincerely,
a night shift worker and one of your newest fan.
