That being said, it seems clear that it was the mediocre ratings that ultimately spelled disaster and doom for “Graceland.”
When the USA Network canceled the fourth season of “Graceland” two weeks after its Season 3 finale last year, the talks about the show’s poor ratings continue to this day which only justifies the network’s decision to end it.
Apparently, it is the poor ratings of “Graceland” that made it easier for the network bosses to come to their decision, notwithstanding the fact that the TV show has a strong fan base and very good in terms of creativity.
It may have survived three seasons in the cable channel but the network can only take so much losses.
According to source from the USA Network, the TV series just did not bring in the ratings that it needed in order to justify its place on the cable channel.
The source even added that the decision to end “Graceland” after its Season 3 finale was a short conversation even if the TV series left a huge cliffhanger at the end. Shows that are on the bubble ratings-wise or have a strong fan base often survive in limbo for months before the final decision is made.
