NBC Responds to Outrage Over 5 Major Show Cancellations

A top executive at NBC is explaining the five controversial show cancellations at the network.

Jeff Bader, NBC Universal’s President of Program Planning Strategy, told reporters  that Suits: LA was on the chopping block because it didn't resonate enough with audiences.

“Suits: LA had a very short run, but it really has not resonated [with audiences in] the way we thought it would,” he said at a press conference on May 10, 2025, according to Collider.

Bader also addressed the cancellations of four other major shows.
