No Season 3 for the Kevin James comedy.
May 12, 2018
It is being reported that CBS has cancelled Kevin Can Wait after two seasons. Andy Fickman, an executive producer on the show, broke the news with a post to his Instagram account, thanking his cast, crew, and writers.
The comedy starred Kevin James in his first leading role on television since his nine-year stint on The King of Queens. He played a recently-retired police officer looking forward to having more free time to spend with his family and friends. But when his oldest daughter decides to drop out of college, Kevin puts his plans on hold and moves her and her fiancé into his home so that she can stay in school.
The half-hour series was a decent performer on Monday nights, though ratings slipped during its sophomore run after the show replaced original cast member Erinn Hayes, who played Kevin's wife, with Leah Remini, who previously co-starred with James on The King of Queens.
The show's final episode, now its series finale, aired just last week.

Loved the first season...hated the second season. Wished they wouldn't have messed it up. Could have been a keeper for a long while.

The viewing public agrees - Once this show became a reboot of KING OF QUEENS, it was over. The way that Erin Hayes was let go was completely ham-handed, and the show never recovered. That it was cancelled is, for once, an act of mercy by a network.

Not surprised this show has been canceled. I loved the first season but killing off Donna and replacing her with Leah was bad move. I watched a handful of episodes at the beginning of this season and that was enough for me. You took a great, funny show and just turned it into a remake of King of Queens. I loved KoQ, but it had it's time and now, apparently, so has KCW because you guys ruined it in the second season.

I loved the first year...This years seamed like it was King of Queens with children. They should have never messed with it

Karma at it's best! I loved Donna (the wife). I quit watching when they axed her and brought on Leah.

I stopped watching after they got rid of Donna. She was the best thing about the show, and Leah Remini is COMPLETELY unbelievable as a character in Wisconsin.

I stopped watching after Erinn Hayes was fired. Actually, I watched maybe 2 episodes this season and removed it from my recording list. I have limited TV time, and this reboot didn't make the cut.

I loved this show the first season it was so funny but then they brought in Leah and fired donna and it became not funny anymore.I think they thought that it would be like king of Queens they had so much chemistry back then but not anymore what a sad outcome for the show.the bottom line is they should have left it alone kevin is funny I hope he does another show but leave leah out please she is not funny.

We enjoyed the 1st season of this show but then they killed the wife & replaced her with Remini so we never watched the 2nd season. If we wanted to see King of Queens again, we'd just watch the reruns.This show deserved to get cancelled.
