All the Fox Shows Canceled in 2026, So Far

Fox has canceled two shows ahead of the 2026-2027 programming lineup

NEED TO KNOW

• Fox has announced several renewals, along with a few cancellations for their 2026-2027 programming lineup
• ‘Sherri’ with Sherri Shepherd was canceled in February 2026 after four seasons
• ‘Going Dutch’ was canceled in May after two seasons

As several networks prepare for their 2026-2027 programming, not every show will make the cut.

Fox — which owns more than two dozen news, entertainment and sports channels in the U.S. — is among the networks that have announced show cancellations in 2026.

In February, Lionsgate’s Debmar-Mercury confirmed to PEOPLE that Sherri Shepherd's talk show, Sherri, had been canceled after four seasons. Shepherd, whose last live show aired on April 30 (pre-taped segments with air through the fall), addressed the cancellation at the time and said that she was "not ready to throw in the towel on this show just yet" and wanted to "continue to fight to keep this show alive in some way, shape or form."

Three months later, the sitcom Going Dutch was canceled after two seasons. The comedy, which starred Denis Leary, aired its final episode on April 23.

Although there have been two cancellations as of May 2026, the network has renewed several other shows — including Animal Control, Best Medicine, Doc, Memory of a Killer and Fear Factor: House of Fear.

Here's everything to know about the Fox shows canceled in 2026 so far.

Sherri

Shepherd's syndicated daytime talk show, Sherri, was canceled after four seasons on Feb. 2.

“This decision is driven by the evolving daytime television landscape and does not reflect on the strength of the show, its production – which has found strong creative momentum this season – or the incredibly talented Sherri Shepherd,” Debmar-Mercury co-presidents Ira Bernstein and Mort Marcus said in a statement to PEOPLE. “We believe in this show and in Sherri and intend to explore alternatives for it on other platforms.”

Sherri filmed four seasons in New York City since it launched in September 2022 after the comedian led The Wendy Williams Show's final season earlier that year.

Shepherd later addressed the cancellation in an emotional Instagram post where she thanked her followers for their support and wrote that she was "completely overwhelmed by the outpouring of love" for the show.

On Feb. 9, Shepherd spoke at length about the cancellation on the first episode of her talk show since hearing the news.

"I want to be clear: I'm not ready to throw in the towel on this show just yet. I'm not. I'm not," Shepherd said. "We're gonna be airing episodes all though the fall. And we're going to continue to fight to keep this show alive in some way, shape or form. If anybody knows me, they know I'm a fighter. I don't know exactly what it's going to look like, but I promise, I am going to continue to spread joy."

She thanked her viewers, colleagues, fans, guests, crew members and everyone else involved in the show.

"I gotta tell you, when I first started, this show was built on one thing and what I wanted it built on was joy. Joy," Shepherd continued. "The intention of this show, always, was my prayer for you to leave happier than when you've came. And you know this, I talked about this. It has been my dream to have a talk show and I'm so grateful I had the chance to do it for four seasons."

Going Dutch

Going Dutch was the second show to get the axe from Fox. The comedy was canceled after two seasons, The Hollywood Reporter confirmed on May 4. The final episode aired on April 23.

Going Dutch starred Leary as U.S. Army Colonel Patrick Quinn who reconnects with his estranged daughter, Maggie (Taylor Misiak) at the lowest level army base in the world. The series followed Quinn as he tried to instill discipline among the rather random recruits.

In addition to Leary — who also executive produced the show — and Misiak, the series also starred Kristen Johnston, Danny Pudi, Laci Mosley, Hal Cumpston, Joe Morton and Catherine Tate.

The network has not released an official reason for the cancellation, but Deadline reported that it was the "lowest-rated entertainment program on the network."
