The Canadian detective dramedy will wrap with 8 final episodes.
June 11, 2021
Canada's Global TV has announced that Private Eyes will be coming to an end after its upcoming fifth season. The detective dramedy, which airs on ION Television in the US, will be wrapping up a successful run of 60 episodes that has resonated with audiences around the world.
The series stars Jason Priestley as former pro hockey player Matt Shade, who cuts his playing career short when he teams up with private investigator Angie Everett, working alongside her as a detective. The new partnership forces Matt to examine who he has become and who he wants to be while investigating high-stakes crimes. Together, the powerhouse duo challenge each other on the job and in their everyday lives.
The fifth and final season of Private Eyes will consist of eight episodes - its shortest run yet due to filming limitations caused by COVID-19. It will premiere for Canadian audiences on July 7.

I’m so tired of good shows being cancelled while reality shows keep on going

That sucks. Every time Canada gets a really good show, someone cancels it.

From Wikipedia:
"On September 24, 2020, E. W. Scripps Company agreed to buy Ion Media for $2.65 billion. The transaction, which closed on January 7, 2021, saw Ion Television and its sister networks absorbed into Scripps' Katz Broadcasting subsidiary, which already operates five specialty networks, most notably Bounce TV and Court TV. In regards to Ion Television's programming, Scripps has indicated it would maintain the status quo, with no plans to invest in original content or deviate from the channel's off-network programming approach."
What seems to be going on is that Scripps is ditching everything that ION was doing so that they can replace the ION channels with their own programming.

That's too bad. My wife and I liked watching it together when we wanted something lighter.

I agree Bernard. I love the show. Shade and Everett have amazing chemistry. I am so going to miss this show when it ends :(
