8 TV Shows That Are Going To Get Cancelled In 2016

It's that time of the year again, folks –  the time when television networks decide whether or not your favourite shows are going to get renewed or cancelled. With so much choice on television not everything can make it. It's an inevitably – and for some shows, that inevitability is imminent. 

There are various factors that influence whether or not a show might be cancelled. Even if the numbers are low a dedicated, vocal fanbase can give networks pause for consideration. And if a huge amount of money has been invested, sometimes its better to stick it out for another season to see if things get better.

Sadly, there are some shows this year that just can't be saved, either due to a decline in viewers, a lack of quality, or simply not being worth the cost. From misjudged animation to the desecration of a beloved family property, here are eight TV shows that are going to get cancelled in 2016.

An animated sitcom that falls back on racist and stereotypical humour – what could possibly go wrong? Bordertown follows two families living in a Southwest desert town on the US-Mexico border, the imaginatively titled Mexifornia.

It's not even that the show is too shocking or edgy to appeal to a wide audience...it's just not very good. The jokes aren't satirical or subversive and they provide little in the way of backhanded social commentary.

A lack of quality is a grim enough prospect in itself, but there aren't a whole lot of people watching, either. Eleven episodes into the first season and Bordertown is struggling to scrape one million in a slot that generally performs much better. With just two episodes before the season comes to an end and no word on a renewal, expect the imminent closure of Mexifornia.
