Irish-American mafia drama Brotherhood has been axed by Showtime after 3 seasons. The show starring Kevin Chapman, Jason Isaacs, Jason Clarke and Annabeth Gish was axed after various rumors suggested it wasn’t coming. Back in February Fionnula Flanagan who plays Rose Caffee in the series told EOnline “We’re on hiatus, and we’re waiting to hear what Showtime’s pleasure is about that. It will all have to be balanced with what else Showtime has on its roster for this next year. Usually the shooting season was the summer, so I should imagine that we’ll know soon.”
Guess Showtime couldn’t balance another season of Brotherhood. Flanagan is keeping busy with various projects and was recently seen in ABC’s Lost as Eloise Hawking. Jason Isaacs is busy with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, whilst Annabeth Gish was working on An American Girl: Chrissa Stands Strong.
Bring back Brotherhood. It is such a great show!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please bring back Brotherhood! At least a half dozen family members, not to mention my friends watch this show. I cannot believe it wont be coming back. What happened? I am extremely disappointed. If it weren’t for “Dexter” I would probably cancel showtime now that brotherhood is not on. IN fact, we probably will cancel it after this season of Dexter, and watch it on someone elses dime next year. What a shame!
I cancelled Showtime since they cancelled the Brotherhood. They really should bring it back. Great Show!
If Brotherhood appeared on another network it would still be on and have kiiler ratings. Showtime did not do the best job in promoting this show. I am so surprised that I just heard of the show a few weeks ago and have been hooked ever since and that I have not come across it in the stores like I do every other show sooner. Now I have watched every show out there and have a huge collection of box sets and I know a great show when I watch one and my opinion is that this show could rival The Soprano’s if only enough people had the privlege of watching it and that’s where Showtime comes in but they dropped the ball again!
showtime did it again they pull you in with a great show, then drop you……shame on u showtime….time to switch
