Scorpion Cancelled at CBS

It was not surprising when CBS announced that it had cancelled “Scorpion’ for good, on May 12, 2018, and that no new seasons would be made.

So, unless another network picks up the show, Season 5 is not happening. Scorpion doesn’t have the fanbase like other popular shows, where there’s enough fan outcry to bring the show back, so it seems unlikely that the show will be back.

The Scorpion series closed out Season 4 with 5.1 million total viewers and an all-time low 0.7 rating — was missing from the network’s renewal spree.
