Defiance Cancelled By Syfy – No Season 4

October 16, 2015 by RenewCancelTV 27 Comments

Is There Defiance Season 4? Cancelled Or Renewed?

Syfy has cancelled Defiance after three seasons, RenewCancelTV has learned.

The cable network has opted not to continue with a fourth season of the sci-fi drama, which concluded Season 3 with a fair amount of closure, mindful that the axe could swing.

The cancellation of Defiance comes days after Syfy downed genre companion Dominion after two seasons.

The network said via statement:

“Defiance was a truly groundbreaking series, delivering an immersive, cross-platform experience that transcended the television screen in a way that viewers had never seen before. We are incredibly proud of the work of the extraordinary cast, writers, artists and designers – and especially showrunner Kevin Murphy – who together brought the rich world of Defiance to life over its three-season arc.”

RIP.

RIP

    Two good shows axed by SyFy *Dominion and Defiance). But, they keep sci-porn Lost Girl and ‘green light’ cheapo series? The change of ownership hasn’t been good over the past few years.

    Syfy should be ashamed. The best show they ever had and they don’t renew it – incredibly stupid! Like in the original Star Trek, the networks didn’t learn a bit and make the same mistakes over and over again. They let a lot of stupid crap shows continue and cancel the excellent ones. I really can’t understand how dumb this network is. Maybe Syfy should cancel itself… 🙁

      I agree….defiance & dominion were great shows. I believe that the networks cancel shows to early if the ratings drop one wee bit. networks want the quick fix — this does not work for the viewers. I always caught up on the shows via on demand because I could not view them at their scheduled times. the networks do not take that in to consideration. the networks need to broaden their data base to take that into consideration.

      The best show they ever had? Clearly you must be delirious. You forget about Haven, Warehouse 13, Eureka, and a multitude of others. I wouldn’t even rate Defiance in the same ballpark. It was good..but not the same grade. But you are right…since the new management took over, they have made a habit of killing off anything of substance, and catering to the brain dead with a plethora of B movies and dirt (crap) series.

    Great to learn that there are so many Defiance fans out there who think Syfy sucks. Let’s rename it the Shtako Channel! Defiance-fans know what that means… 😉

    I watched Dark Matter and Killjoys this year. Why watch it again, it will just be canceled. Syfy has went to crap. At least they could rerun some of the old shows Farscape or Stargate. A lot of the old series I would watch over and over.

    I am glad at least that there was a little closure. If is possible the shows should have some advanced warnings to wrap up the endings. At the very least the sci fi channel should give the fans some closure .

    What do you expect from a network that canceled Stargate Atlantis to give us a new crap version of the show. Can only hope Expanse is good and will last.

    Science Fiction / Fantasy Fiction are my favorite type of shows to watch and over the years I’ve gotten hooked on many series on Syfy only to have them cancel shows that were Excellent to decent and keep shows that really sucked. I personally am getting tired of trying to follow a show that’s on this week off for two weeks on again and off again only to have it disappear without any notice and get canceled due to low ratings! Dominion was a good show but there were too many intermissions, start a new show in the fall go until spring, summer replacements until the new season in the fall, people are creatures of habit and will watch if you are consistent, but if you’re not going to be… You Might Want To Cancel Your Network.
    ( Defiance was a Good show and it had potential. I Lost interest because it wasn’t on for Long periods of time.)

      I guess I stopped watching Sylie when they began cancelling everything I cared about on their channel, and replacing it with horse crap. Seriously, for starters..wrestling never belonged on syfy…when that happened it was a good indication for us the direction they were heading. Then Warehouse 13, Haven, anything Stargate, all got crapped on. When they got taken over they went from an icon to a walmart worthy brand name…that is all.
