If you are a fan of the hit CBC television show 'Wild Roses', I've got some bad news for you. CBC has decided not to run another season. Wow...I am soooo disappointed. And so are many others.
This was one of the best Canadian TV shows we've ever had. Not to mention that Wild Roses ended with a bang at the end of the first season. I need closure! I need to find out if anyone dies in the explosion. They can't just leave us hanging like this. It's not fair!
There are only 2 Canadian shows I've been watching regularly--Wild Roses and Being Erica. Everything else is American. Not that I don't love their shows, I do. But Wild Roses really captured the Alberta flavor. Many of my US friends and fans wanted to watch it.
This is a sad time in Canadian television history. Cutting great shows like this is like taking away a part of our heritage, the part that makes us Canadian and keeps us so. Well, I'm taking a stand. I've signed a petition to save Wild Roses. I hope you'll consider signing it too.
CBC, don't axe this show! Wild Roses deserves its spot. Last month I signed a petition to save the CBC. If you keep cutting awesome shows like Wild Roses, next time I won't bother.

Hey Cheryl. I agree with you about Wild Roses. It was a great show. So sorry they aren't renewing it. However you said that you only watch 2 Canadian shows one being Wild Roses and the other Being Erica. The other Canadian show that captures Alberta even better than Wild Roses is Heartland. Do you not watch it? This is there 3rd season coming up and it is a great show.I am surprised you don't know about it. You should check it out.
I am familiar with Heartland, but it never really interested me--perhaps because I noticed the younger actors in it. When I first saw the promos, I thought it was for a younger audience, although I know there are a lot of adults that watch it.
Really I just missed getting on the boat. I rarely ever watch a show starting with a 3rd season. Or it could be that it's scheduled at the same time as another favorite show. I've heard Heartland is a very good show.
I think the other reason why Wild Roses really interested me was that I was contacted by a friend who is related to one of the actors. :-)
Wild Roses was my favorite show this year. I need to know what happens after the explosion! save wild roses!
Save Wild Roses!!!! Its my favorite show and I need to know what happens in the explosion... I really hope they will change their minds..
Everyone knows there are only a handful of shows that are worth watching on TV and they are: "Wild Roses", Rick Mercer, The Tudors, Heartland, The Hour, Little Mosque On The Prairie, Coronation Street, Dragon's Den, The National, Ron James. The Fall selection of programs are excellent but CBC, you must bring back "Wild Roses" this Spring 2010. This is a terrific series with great actors and plot. It wouldn't be a complete t.v. week without it in the listings. I vote for CBC to bring back "Wild Roses" in 2010!
Thanks for posting this! I was wondering how many people do we need to sign to get it back on! They just can't end it like that! This sucks because I just watched all of the first season on Hulu and enjoyed every minute of it. I loved it so much I went to search.com and typed in the show and was looking for when the next season started so I could start watching it again. I already have it for Hulu to let me know when a new episode comes in but what good is it now if they never start up again. This is the best show I have seen in a long, long time. I was wondering if it was based off a book. Also, I have posted it both on my Facebook as well as on Twitter. I also posted the Hulu page so maybe others who have not seen the show will watch it and help us save it. I hope they do come back. Thanks again for starting this petition! Cross your fingers!
I can't get over how much internet traffic I get from people wanting to know more about Wild Roses and wanting a new season. Sadly, it's been over a year now and I haven't heard a thing...but I will check with one of my friends who happens to be one of the stars of Wild Roses.
Please note: I didn't start the petition, but I sure signed it! :-)
Honestly, I went to UofA for almost four years and as an international student who totally integrated and loved Alberta, I really enjoyed finding Wild Roses back home on satellite television. Please bring it back!
By the way, sorry for dissenting but the best Canadian show ever is Trailer Park Boys.
I have just started watching Wild roses and have finished the first season...please please please....bring them back for another season.. I need to know what happens to everyone!!!!
Save it or at least make one more episode to end it i just watched the whole season not knowing i was gonna be left to wonder an wishing i had all the time i just wasted back. thx
I too just finished watching Wild Roses. Soooooooo GOOD, why when we like something they take it off. Please bring it back
I just watched the first season on Hulu and was extremely disappointed to find out there still be no more episodes. I really loved this show.
Wow!! I am an American and I just finished watching the 1st Season of Wild Roses and I thoroughly enjoyed the series. It's a shame that CBS cancelled this show. It really aggravates me when a channel has a good series going they up and cancel it. Have you thought of going to another public broadcast channel because I feel in my gut you would have quite a few viewers. Shame on CBS..this day their all about Reality Shows which I don't enjoy watching.
Hope this show is brought back. Thank you for the entertainment.
Bring back Wild Roses!! Had I known there wasn't another season at least I would have been prepared. Terrible way to be left hanging!!!!
I wish if they weren't going to renew a season they would let you know before you start watching, when it tells you season one you assume there is more!!!
I just finished The Wild Roses, fell in love with this show and all the characters. I did a search to find out when the next series will begin and I CAN NOT BELIEVE CBS CANCELLED IT!!! Someone needs to pick this up and finish this at least! Heartland is very successful and it's not near as good I just don't get it??
Sadly I stumbled on this program and seeing how high it was rated me and the wife quickly jumped in. Told her I thought I noticed 59 episodes...
unfortunately this was not the case. I also didn't notice it was from 2009. We went into shock when we realized my error...it was done...
gone...no resolution...I'm an American...stuck with Agent Orange
until he hopefully goes to prison..
this was a great distraction and very much inline with Heartland which we also enjoy...down here we need the distraction
the wife and I just found this series and were really into this series the all of bamb!!!!! gone Why?????????????
I want more!!!!! Love this show!!!!
Just finished watching Wild Roses,,,,my goodness, why on earth was this show canceled,,,,it was a great story line and could have gone a long way...here’s my take on what happened.
Will was killed in the explosion, Maggie was paralyzed, Peter stepped up to the plate and eventually became foreman of Rivercross, then of course, he and Kate marry. Lucy returns and throws herself into the ranch and helping her mom who handles the finances. Charlotte finds out Mcgregor is her father, has a fit, leaves the show, he shoots himself. Rebecca and fiancĂ© lose election, have to get jobs..the Henry girls expand, build a B & B which proves to be one of the most successful ones in the country..just sayin..☺️
If they will not bring it back then write another book. I'll buy it. Just finish the story.
I just stumbled on this and it is 2018. Im a Calgarian. They did such an amazing series. Just so so disappointed this CBC series never continued. Great Canadian actors and story line
I really really enjoyed this show!
Why was it ever cancelled ?
Please bring it back ! It was definitely a WINNER ! ! 2018
Why would you leave it hanging like that?? This is a winner of a series and would be a blockbuster if you bring it back!! 2019
I just started watching Wild Roses,Love it.Cbs always cancelling the good shows with family.Season 2 would have been Great..
Bring this show back..loved this show!!!
Please please please bring wild Rose back if for no other reason than to write a finished ending to it.
To me u don’t put a show on and get people interested in it and then drop it.
Too bad Netflix wouldn't pick the show up like they did with American tv shows which were not renewed. Since the producers won't renew the show and everyone is into sending a petition..let's hit Netflix up to continue the series.
I DONT CARE IF ITS EVEN 2019!!!!! BRING BACK WILD ROSES!!!
I really enjoyed this series. If I had known that there was not a season 2 I wouldn't have even started watching it. You could have done 2 or 3 more episodes that at least gave closure to this series. I can't believe that you would leave your audiences hanging like you did.
This is a great show dont know why they stopped im in america and i tell you this show is one of the best ive seen since heartland which i watched from the begining and i hope theres another episode of it. Wild roses is family and a decent show. Hope they come back with more seasons. Actors are great.
Yes bring back wild Roses ..I was watching is serious. And was loving it,why they canceled.
2020 bring back WILD ROSES!!!!
WHAT HAPPEN....!!!!
At least make one more episode so you know what happened to everybody
Wow just finished watching.. And no 2nd series.. Shouldn't of made the 1st in the first place.
I just watched this I'm so disappointed they didn't make a second season it was differently a great show
Why do they always cancel the good shows?!?
WHAT!!!!!! how can you call this season one when there isn't anymore...and to leave it on a cliff hanger beggers belief.
Well they struck out anyway. :(
I found Wild Roses on YouTube because I’m so enthralled with Canadian TV shows. I’m from the USA and love all shows Canadian that I have watched, first beginning with Flashpoint, Heartland, Rookie Blue and so many others! I think of Wild Roses as the R rated version of Heartland. It was SUCH a great show! Still hoping that Heartland gets another season and we get 16 out of them.
I was sorry it didn’t get picked up again so we could find our what happened! I was hoping to at least find something online from the writers and producers of Wild Roses as to what their thoughts would have been if the show had continued…. But so far I have not been able to find anything about it…. This is now 2022
