Rizzoli & Isles Season 8 Revival? TNT Drama ‘Has More Stories To Tell’

August 14, 2016 by RenewCancelTV 19 Comments

rizzoli & isles cancelled renewed season 8

Is a Rizzoli & Isles Season 8 revival possible?

Speaking to TVLine ahead of the cancelled TNT drama‘s series finale, actress Sasha Alexander insists the show has “more stories to tell” but feels “satisfied” with the seven-season run:

Well, this was seven years and that was two. [Laughs] And NCIS was a choice of mine, to go on. I feel very… satisfied with our success. I feel satisfied with the amount of time that we’ve gone on. We’ve been really fortunate from the very beginning to have a fan base that stayed with us throughout. Unlike a lot of shows that do a big run and then you get bored by the end, I actually feel like we’re leaving on an “up,” in that there are more stories to tell. As a creative person, I’ve always looked forward to Dr. Isles; it’s been a really interesting, funny character for me to explore, and I’ve never gotten bored. That’s a danger on any series, that you sort of hit a wall where you feel like you’re “making sausage” every week, which is a quote from my old NCIS costar, Michael Weatherly. He’d be like, “It’s TV, we make sausage every week. And you don’t change the flavors too much.” But I was like, “I don’t want to do that!” [Laughs] I want to make characters that are always growing, always pushing the envelope. So I feel really lucky to have been on something where I have learned so much, that we were able to shoot in Los Angeles…. It’s all around been a really positive experience.

Could Rizzoli & Isles revive elsewhere? Stay tuned as we monitor the cancellation graveyard for signs of second life…

      I thought Rizzoli & Isles was the best show on TNT. Hope that it comes back!

    What a shame that it’s over. Such a good show. So entertaining with it’s humor as well as mystery every week. Please keep it on.

    I loved Rizzoli and Isles until they felt they had to be politically correct and I am sick of it. Now I don’t care if it stays or goes. I have enjoyed all the seasons except this last one. Why would they have Bridges break up with a white girl to get involved with a black girl. Stupid. Goodbye Jane and Maura.

    I wish they wouldn’t cancel it but they are clearly moving all the characters in different directions now. So I’m pretty sure that means goodbye.

    I agree with Elle about the direction they have been taking with the characters this past year. I am really tired of the TV shows pushing this blacks and whites dating, marrying etc. Enough already! If that is the way they plan on continuing please stop now!

    I wish they would keep it on, look at the ratings for it, but they have gone downhill with the storylines now, wish it would go back to the way the shows were in the beginning. I don’t have anything against the girl who plays Nina, but come on why did they break him up with someone to go with Nina, because of the racist thing, a show shouldn’t be conserned about that, just leave it alone. I think they both wanted to go a different direction and that’s why it was cancelled, but why not just tell us that and maybe we wouldn’t be complaining about cancelling it.

    I love this show. Would be there for a 8th or 9th season. I tape it in case something happens and interfere s with me being on the spot for the show.

    How can TNT cancel a show with the ratings it has. This is a great show. Maybe somebody will get smart and renew it. Guess I don’t understand their logic or thinking.

    The TV executives keep getting it wrong. You are cancelling the good shows like Rizzoli and Isles and leaving on the shows that aren’t fit to watch.

      I don’t understand that either. Why it seems like they always cancelled the good shows. I’ve been watching rizzoli and isles since it started going to miss it.

    Live in Canada. Don’t get TNT. Show was on SuperChannel but now changed to Showcase. Showcase is showing Season 5 which I have already seen. Anyone know when the newer seasons will be aired in Canada?

    I do hope a revival would happen. I looked forward to seeing the series. Well written and the actors worked well together.

    About forcing interracial relationships on tv shows (and commercials), the most noticable thing is, that it is usually shown as white men with black women. I’m guessing that black men with white women still has a bit of a stigma? I know more white women dating black guys than vice versa in real life…that’s just me, but the “trend” is SO obviously “preachy” on tv.
