Yellowstone, You, and 8 other TV shows that ended in 2024

1) The Good Doctor

Remade from the 2013 South Korean series of the same name, The Good Doctor is a seven-season, 126-episode American medical drama television series that ran on ABC from September 25, 2017, to May 21, 2024.

The show was canceled due to several factors, including the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes, network priorities, and more.

Watch the season finale to see who Jerome Martel marries, the flashbacks that might leave viewers teary-eyed, and experience a full-circle moment as the show gives fans a glimpse into the future of the characters.

2) You

Based on the novels by Caroline Kepnes, the show You centers on Joe, a romantic, bookish stalker who murders the women he loves and anyone who stands in his way.

An August 16, 2024, article from Netflix's Tudum stated, “You Season 5 Will Be Joe Goldberg’s Final Chapter,” hinting at the season's conclusion.

Filming for Season 5 was completed in August 2024, so fans can eagerly await the finale to see what happens to Joe in the end.

3) Yellowstone

Although its spinoffs have turned Yellowstone into a massive franchise, the original neo-western show starring Kevin Costner has come to a close.

The season finale of the show aired on December 15, 2024, after running for five seasons. Watch the gripping finale to find out who is laid to rest for eternity and who survives the test of time.

4) Blue Bloods

On December 13, 2024, the 14-season run of the CBS procedural Blue Bloods came to an end.

One final Reagan family meal marks the end of the venerable show. Blue Bloods has been consistent over its 14 seasons on CBS, with many of its writers and producers being on board for most of the run and the core cast remaining together.

Watch to see if anything significant occurs during the final dinner as the season finale concludes with a case.

5) Superman & Lois

Superman & Lois was announced as a pilot in October 2019. The show aired on The CW for four seasons, from February 23, 2021, to December 2, 2024.

Superman's final fight to defend Metropolis and the eventual defeat of the season's primary foe marked the conclusion of the season finale. And with Lois Lane and Clark Kent (Superman) considering their family's journey, it is safe to say that the season ended on a good and positive note.

6) The Umbrella Academy

The superpowered humans are on a final mission to save the planet and their brother after four seasons, multiple timelines, numerous apocalypses, and countless dead villains.

With a total of four seasons, the final season of The Umbrella Academy, released on August 8, 2024, has officially come to an end.

Watch to find out if the final timeline created by the Umbrella Academy’s actions disappears and what really happens if it gets dissolved.

7) Young Sheldon

On May 16, the final episode of CBS's Young Sheldon concluded its seven-season run. Young Sheldon, a 2017 prequel to The Big Bang Theory show, chronicles the early years of Sheldon Cooper, who was first played by Jim Parsons.

In an incredible hour of television, Jim Parsons and Mayim Bialik reprise their roles as Sheldon Cooper and Amy Farrah Fowler in the series' must-see two-episode conclusion.

8) Star Trek: Discovery

Star Trek: Discovery premiered on September 24, 2017, on CBS All Access (now Paramount+). Following its fifth season, Star Trek: Discovery concludes the voyage of the USS Discovery and its crew. The goal of the last season is to defend the galaxy against a fresh existential danger.

According to a May 30, 2024 Variety article, no one working on the show knew it would be the show's last journey when it was being made, thus Paramount+ didn't reveal its demise until after the season 5 finale was finished.

But as all good things must come to an end, the show aired its series finale on May 30, 2024.

9) Elite

Elite (Spanish: Élite) follows three working-class students who earn scholarships to attend Las Encinas, focusing on their social and romantic interactions with wealthy classmates. The show ran for eight seasons from October 5, 2018, to July 26, 2024.

The primary plot revolves around a murder mystery that recurs in previous seasons and connects past occurrences with shocking disclosures. Some characters, like Samuel, struggle to mend their relationships as a result of their decisions, while others, like Rebeca and Omar, look for fresh starts.

While the internet leans toward the idea that the season finale was a cliffhanger, it is evident that the show has left fans wanting more.

10) Vikings: Valhalla

Vikings: Valhalla is a historical drama set in the early 11th century, following Viking heroes inspired by Norse mythology, who fight for their faith, land, and legacy to be remembered.

Netflix reported last October 2023 that the show would end after a third and final season which premiered on July 11, 2024.

The series closes a very important chapter of history.

Other fan-favorite shows, including Grown-ish, Star Trek: Lower Decks, Star Wars: The Bad Batch, and Sweet Tooth, will be saying their final goodbyes in 2024.
