All the Canceled and Renewed TV Shows in January 2024

It's a new year, and TV networks are resolving to either make your day by renewing your favorite show or ruin your month by canceling it. Either way, TV Guide will be here for you. January brought some good news; Hijack will be back for Season 2 on Apple TV+, which is also renewing Slow Horses for Season 5. Netflix is serving up more Is It Cake? MTV has also renewed two of its reality series, and E! is going for a second season of House of Villains. But the early cancellations of the year were painful: Apple TV+ announced that Schmigadoon! won't return for a third season, Max announced cancellations for four series (Rap Sh!t, Julia, The Flight Attendant, and Our Flag Means Death), Paramount+ axed Wolf Pack, and Starz canceled Minx after previously saving it from the same fate at Max. ABC also announced that The Good Doctor will end after Season 7, which premieres in February.

Whether you're looking to celebrate more of your favorites or mourn the loss of something on your regular rotation, we're keeping tabs on all the shows that have been canceled or renewed this month below.
