BBC America has canceled Copper after two seasons, Variety reports. The ratings for the critically acclaimed drama dropped from its first to its second season. The series finale will air this Sunday, September 22.

I really enjoyed this show. I didn't see it coming. Sad knowing the finale hasn't even aired yet.
 
What a shame a really good show. Plus it airs during when Breaking Bad is on to.
 
Rule of thumb: Don't get emotionally invested in period pieces. The longer they go on the more they cost, and they usually draw limited audiences. They are a recipie for a short shelf life and early cancellation. From Deadwood, to Rome, to Magic City and on. Shame too because they are usually excellent shows like Copper.

I hate anytime a Tom Fontana show gets cancelled; without him we may not have had the recent golden age of television. If there was never an Oz there would have never been a Sopranos or The Wire or even a Breaking Bad. Fontana never gets the props he deserves.
