Person Of Interest Will Have Closure, But Season 6 Could Still Happen

May 1, 2016 by RenewCancelTV 5 Comments

person of interest cancelled season 6 reboot?

Cancelled CBS drama Person Of Interest will end its fifth and final season with closure, but Season 6 could still happen in the future, EPs Jonathan Nolan and Greg Plageman tell IGN:

So let’s talk about how the decision was made to write toward a definitive ending. Did you know Season 5 was going to be the final run for the show? Or did you just suspect it might be the end so it was best to just steer the story in that direction?

Jonathan Nolan: One of the great advantages for me, with this show, was being able to collaborate for five years now with the great Greg Plageman, who knew an awful lot more than I did about the TV business when we started. And who’s been an incredible partner to me since the beginning. And so when we got to this moment, Greg, as he often has over the years, gently laid it out for me. You know, I’ve been in the film business which is a lot different in many ways. In the TV business, you have to read the tea leaves a little bit more. It’s not always as direct. And Greg and I deduced that this was probably the end of the road. So rather than try to hedge our bets, or vamp for a possible sixth season, we decided to land the plane. And do it in such a way that should CBS, Warners or us want to, they could pick up the story and carry it forward. So it’s not about a cataclysm at the end. But it is about ending the story.

Greg Plageman: Once we saw the reduced episode order, we took that as writing on the wall, really. And rather than write some ending where we tread water with some bizarre finale where you don’t know if the show will come back or if we’ll be back the next year with only a few episodes, we were like “Screw that. Let’s give it a satisfying ending.” Let’s make it as exciting and explosive as possible. And then we’ll drop the mic. And then walk away from it. And then some day, who knows?

As always, we’ll monitor the TV afterlife for signs of a Person Of Interest Season 6 reboot/revival…

    Best show on TV…2016 People’s Choice Award.
    Moonves is cheap…money hungry…doesn’t care about the viewers.
    Great writers and producers.
    Outstanding cast and crew.
    Magnificent chemistry between Root (Amy) and Shaw (Sarah).
    Hopefully, CBS will wake up and reconsider.

    Absolutely the best writing on network TV right now. Harold is the new John Connor. The backstory of each character has built a strong foundation of social relationships; first of John’s and Harold’s, Fusco’s, then the best, Shaw’s and Root’s. I understand CBS, the business of money, and the concept of series ownership. But I hope that someone somewhere will overcome that myopic view and find a home for this show.

    Every time there is a show for grown ups it gets cancelled if it is not on cable or pay for view. Some one needs to rethink this. Sell it to Netflix and make me happy.
