We’re a few months into 2026, and this is going to be the last year for some big shows.

The biggest shock has to be The Late Show With Stephen Colbert being canceled, and even with almost a year to get used to the idea, it will still be hard to say goodbye in May. There are some scripted favorites, like All American on The CW, The Boys on Prime Video, and, of course, the love story of Outlander on Starz that have become TV staples that have final seasons coming up. It’s even going to be hard to say goodbye to those with shows in the same franchise still coming/airing, including Power and The Neighborhood.

Below, we take a look at all the show we already know are ending. Be sure to keep this page bookmarked as we’ll be updating it as more (and more details) are announced.

I know, for the sake of our story and our characters, it’s the right thing. I am committed to delivering a final season that our Chi Family deserves.”

When the Netflix drama was renewed for its fifth season, it was announced to be its last in November 2024. “Seven years ago, in the summer of 2017, we came across a photo of teenagers on a beach at dusk during a power outage. That photo sparked an idea for a story of four best friends who only want to have a good time all the time. From this beginning, we imagined a mystery that would lead to a five-season journey of adventure, treasure hunting, and friendship,” co-creators and executive producers Jonas Pate, Josh Pate, and Shannon Burke said in a statement at the time. “Now, with a little sadness, but also excitement, we’re putting Season 4 behind us, and are turning to Season Five, in which we hope to bring our beloved Pogues home in the way we imagined and planned years ago. Season 5 will be our last season, and we think it will be our best yet. We hope you’ll join us for one more paddle out to the surf break.”
