Having to follow a TV series with no clear ending because it was abruptly canceled by the network is a critical heart-wrenching feeling for TV viewers that some actually shun watching them.
Nolan also confirmed that there is indeed a high possibility that Season 5 of “Person of Interest” shall be its last but he promises that the story would end well and that he will make sure to give viewers 13 kickass episodes.
In fairness to CBS, when it moved the premiere date of Season 5 of “Person of Interest,” the network did not mean to discredit the show or put it in a low priority. It actually wanted to help the show boost its ratings by pitting it against not-so-tough competition, which usually comes during summer.
Season 5 of “Person of Interest” was supposed to debut this fall on CBS after it was renewed by the network for another season amid rumors of its cancelation.
Apparently, the rumors appear to have a good leg to stand on since the show has not been doing well in the ratings game during its last season.
However, instead of letting the ax fall on the show just like it did to two of its TV series a few months ago – “Extant” and “Under the Dome” – CBS decided to hold on to “Person of Interest,” at least for another season.
