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.
