A few weeks after airing its third season finale, A&E has opted to cancel Longmire. The cancellation is quite peculiar considering the series was the network's most-watched drama series - although it did underperform a bit in the younger demographics which A&E has decided to focus on.
"We would like to thank the phenomenal cast, crew and producers of Longmire, along with our partners at Warner Horizon, for their tireless work on three seasons of quality dramatic storytelling," A&E released in a statement. "We are incredibly proud of what we have achieved together.
Multiple sources claim that production company Warner Horizon Television will shop the Wyoming-set crime drama to other networks.
Created by John Coveny and Hunt Baldwin, Longmire starred Robert Tayor, Katee Sackhoff, Cassidy Freeman, Bailey Chase, Adam Bartley and Lou Diamond Phillips.
