Nurse Jackie’s upcoming season will officially be its last
In a crushing blow for Edie Falco fans all over the world, Showtime has announced that Nurse Jackie’s upcoming seventh season will be its last. This comes only a few weeks after the network announced that beloved teen heartthrob Tony Shalhoub would be joining the cast, so this loss will be especially hard to take for any Shalhoubanauts who were looking forward to seeing their hero on TV again. Interestingly, Showtime gave Nurse Jackie its seventh season before the sixth had even aired, so the decision to end it is either a surprising reversal of the network’s pro-Jackie stance, or a conscious decision to put it to rest before it pulls a Dexter and overstays its welcome by a few years.
