Peter Lenkov, one of the main brains and producers behind the popular show, also specifically mentioned O’Loughlin in his statement when the cancellation was announced, another clue that the actor is a main reason why the show is coming to an end.
“My eternal gratitude to our cast, led by our hero Alex O’Loughlin, the writers, the production team, our CBS ohana, and most importantly — YOU, the fans, who allowed us to come to work with pride and made our series such a success,” Lenkov said.
David Stapf, the president of CBS Television Studios, shared that fans can expect a “big sendoff” with an “opportunity to say goodbye to their favorite characters.” At the time of writing, there are only two episodes of the show left, but fans can at least look forward to a double episode (and probably double butt-kicking action) for the April 3 finale.
