Padalecki first shared the news in an Instagram post on Tuesday. “It is with a heavy heart that I share this news with you. #Walker will not be airing on [The] CW for a fifth season,” he wrote. “It’s tough news to share, but we are SO thankful for the #WalkerFamily that has been built, both on set and off. After four seasons together, we have felt the love and support from the entire #WalkerFamily, and we will be forever grateful.”
“Too often, we receive praise and gratitude but miss the chance to give it back… WITH THE FANS!” his statement continued. “Home isn’t a ‘place’; it’s a relationship. ‘Places’ can be lost. ‘Relationships’ can live forever. Our gratitude and love for the entire #WalkerFamily will live forever. It has been an honor to be part of the cast, crew, and fandom that helped #Walker tell its stories. I will forever cherish the years I spent with everyone involved. Til we ride again.”
Season-to-date, Walker has averaged just over one million viewers with a 0.1 demo rating (with Live+7 playback), down 16% in audience but steady in the demo compared to its Season 3 numbers. Among the eight dramas The CW has aired this TV season, it ranks No. 1 in total audience.
“We want to thank the entire cast, crew, writers, directors, and producers of Walker for their hard work and dedication over four incredible seasons,” The CW said in a statement. “A special thanks to star and executive producer Jared Padalecki, who has been a member of The CW family for over 20 years and was integral to some of the network’s biggest hits.”
Walker was one of just four original CW shows to be renewed in May 2023 by the network’s new executive team after Nexstar Media Group acquired majority ownership of The CW in August 2022.
