12 TV Shows That Will Probably Be Cancelled In 2019

5. How To Get Away With Murder

How To Get Away With Murder was once a heavy-hitter for ABC, but viewers for the Viola Davis-led thriller have dramatically declined over the years, and in Season 5 have dropped almost a third in the key 18-49 demo.

The recent fifth season ended on a cliffhanger, which might tempt ABC bosses to bring it back for a shortened sixth and final season, but otherwise its days look numbered. The series was once praised by for its thrilling twists, but the sheer amount of turns it's taken have led it to become increasingly convoluted, which has likely played a part in the declining viewership.

It's also pertinent that Shonda Rhimes has signed a huge deal with Netflix, meaning that's where her focus will be and giving ABC less reason to be loyal to her shows. Grey's Anatomy is still pulling in incredible figures for such a long-running show, but HTGAWM, like For The People too, is one they could quite easily cut.
