No Season 5 for the veteran drama.
May 12, 2018
Word is out that CBS has cancelled Scorpion after four seasons on the air. Star Katharine McPhee confirmed the news on her Twitter account this morning, thanking her cast mates and crew for her time on the show.
The action drama, which follows a group of geniuses helping to solve high-priority crimes, was a decent performer for the bulk of its run. Its most-recent season saw a significant downturn in viewership, however, making today's cancellation somewhat expected.

When I first started watching current TV shows regularly again (post-college); I had one favorite show each night of the week: Monday was Scorpion. Tuesday-Thursday were all cancelled within their first season. Now all that is left is Z Nation from Fridays. I hate to admit I may be part of the problem. I fell behind last season and kept putting off catching up since I have All Access and can watch any time so I jumped on the Good Doctor bandwagon and fell even further behind (I DVRed GD and The Brave).

I will agree the stories was not as good lately as it was from the beginning but why not fire the writers and get new ones do not cancel the shoe because it was actually a good and quirky show. CBS has officially lost me 1st they cancel Lucifer and now this. #NoMoreCBS4Me

I'm also finished with CBS--I'm boycotting the channel. This was such a great and quirky show.

I'm done with CBS. They could have gone one more season and wrapped it all up with the Doc and Happy adopting and Paige and Walter getting married or at least finding other suitable mates. I really loved this show. Loved the chemistry between all the characters.

What the heck is wrong with CBS? Scorpion is by far the best hour long drama CBS has. Scorpion gets cancelled but Criminal Minds, which should have ended years ago, gets renewed?
With CBS doing crime dramas over and over and OVER AND OVER with several different CSI shows, several NCIS shows (basically CSI: Navy), several different Criminal Minds SWAT, etc Scorpion was something DIFFERENT. You failed CBS.

I love Scorpion but it does seem like it's run its course. The writers were clearly struggling with new storylines. I hated the breakup of Scorpion (yet again) so I am disappointed that the show will end on such a negative note

This show should've been cancelled years ago. I really wanted to like it, but just couldn't. I couldn't get past the fact that Katherine McPhee is a terrible actress. They maybe could've overcome that if the writing were better but it just wasn't.
