When I heard it might be cancelled, I DVR'd it but I end up watching the final episode. I'm culling any shows that end in cliffhangers from my viewing schedule. There are way too many streaming options to be at the mercy of networks. It infuriates me that network execs make these unilateral decisions, which is basically gigantic screw you to loyal and invested viewers. BOTH Quantum Leap series ended on cliff hangers, so did Scorpion & a few others. I'd almost prefer a crappy series finale to a cliffhanger. I honestly DESPISE shows that end in cliffhangers. I'm a big Chicago One viewer but after the 1st episode I may stop watching them as well so they don't leave me hanging when some hack of a suit gets bored or panicky come ratings time.

I don't think they're being negative, just mindful that if this series was to end lets say this year, we would be left hanging about what happened to Issac. A couple of my favorite shows ended their SERIES on a cliffhanger & the networks didn't give 2 craps about loyal fans. It was infuriating & I totally agree with screen rant on this 1.

THANK YOU for this!! I couldn't agree more!! I DESPISE cliffhangers of any kind on ANY genre of show!! If a show can't stand on it's own merits than it has no business on the air. There is no upside to cliffhangers. They often leave loyal viewers disappointed, frustrated & furious when a series ends on a cliffhanger. It's rude & the program directors should have more decency when it comes to its loyal viewers!! With streaming services all over the map, you would think that program directors would recognize that they are shooting themselves in the foot. My husband has been after me to cancel cable altogether and switch over to streaming services. I've said no so far but with all these great shows getting cancelled like NCIS LA, NCIS HAWAII, Young Sheldon, the new Quantum Leap, etc. I may just say this is the year & stuck to watching Hallmark movies 🫤

But I digress, I had heard that NCIS Hawaii was going to end the series on a cliffhanger, so I watched up until the end of the case, when everyone was happy & immediately deleted it 5 minutes earlier than the show actually ended from my DVR. 2 of my favorite shows were Quantum Leap and Scorpion & they ended BOTH series on cliffhangers🤬 All the Chicago shows pull that crap as well, so I no longer watch their series finales. I try to catch the episodes the week before the new season begin, but this way if the series ends, I'm not left hanging.
