This article has the most up-to-date info on the
status of Tyrant season 4 as we continuously
monitor the news to keep you in the know.
Unfortunately, FX has officially canceled the series.
There will be no season 4.
Series production info and plot
Tyrant is a family drama and political thriller
created by Gideon Raff (Prisoners of War,
Homeland) and developed by Howard Gordon and
Craig Wright. The series is produced by Teakwood
Lane Productions, Keshet Broadcasting, FXP and
Fox 21 Television Studios and has originally
premiered on FX in June 2014. The third
installment of Tyrant contains 10 episodes and
premiered on July 6, 2016.
The story of Bassam “Barry” Al-Fayeed (Adam
Rayner) is at the heart of the plot. He is one of two
sons of a tyrant in an unnamed country in the
Middle East, who has been trying to escape his
past for decades. Now a US pediatrician with an
American wife and kids and no plans to return to
his previous life, Bassam is forced by
circumstances to return home for a relative’s
wedding. He is immediately drawn into a political
intrigue that quickly turns into a serious crisis,
and before it goes any further, he has to act
decisively.
Criticism and renewal potential
The series looked very promising due to its
immediate relevance to current events, but,
according to many critical reviews, failed to deliver
the drama, and to create a compelling set of
characters or a convincing portrayal of the Middle
Eastern politics or society. The series originally
premiered to 2.1 million viewers, and the second
season debuted with an audience of 1.06 million,
which turned out to be the season low. The
current chapter opened with a similar 1.04 million
viewer audience, but immediately adjusted down
to an average of 0.74 million viewers. The show
has a 7.9/10 IMDb score, and has had decent
reviews from the viewers on the review aggregator
websites. No word has come from FX regarding
the future of Tyrant, so please stay tuned for
announcements.
Season 3 recap
On September 7, 2016 the third and final season of
FX's Middle East-set political thriller Tyrant has
concluded its broadcast. Episode 10 which served
as the series finale, “Two Graves”, aired to an
audience of 0.72 million viewers, which is merely
a half of last season's average. A desert war
waged between the Caliphate and Abuddin serves
as the backdrop to one of the darkest episodes of
the series, which leaves Abuddin's future
uncertain. Many of the industry experts expressed
surprise at the recent cancelation of the series.,
yet the ratings dynamic over the course of the
series' run pointed to this unseemly end. Fox 21,
the production company behind the series, is said
to be looking for a way to keep the show in
production, but for now its future prospects
remains unclear. Should it find a home at a
different network, we will be sure to inform you.
Latest news
UPDATED September 8, 2016: On the day of
Tyrant's season 3 finale FX has announced the
cancelation of the series. The show is set to
conclude due to the catastrophic three-fold ratings
decline over the course of its three-season run, so
its potential did not seem particularly strong to the
network officials. Tyrant has run its course, and
we are grateful for the stories that it has managed
to tell. Farewell, Tyrant. 1 Like |
