Show Run
Following a 13-episode first season which ran from July 23 to December 18, 2007, Saving Grace ran for a second season of 14 episodes which began on July 14, 2008 and ended on April 13, 2009. The first half of this season ran in the summer of 2008, and its second half ran in the spring of 2009.
The third season of Saving Grace began airing on June 16, 2009, shifting from the Monday night slot it had for the first two seasons to Tuesday night. Season three ended sooner than planned, on August 18, 2009, due to the decision to cancel the show. The final nine episodes of the show aired beginning March 29, 2010 and ending June 21, 2010.
On August 13, 2009, the show's producer, Fox Television Studios, canceled the series, despite its high ratings, due to disappointing overseas and DVD sales. TNT had originally ordered a split 15-episode third season, with nine episodes ordered for the summer and six to have been aired in the winter of 2009. Due to the show's cancellation, the summer season ended with ten episodes (one episode, "What Would You Do?", slated for season 2, was delayed until season 3, adding one to the 15 originally ordered for the season), and in March 2010 TNT began airing what were advertised as the final episodes. These were the six remaining episodes of the season, with three new episodes added to bring the series to closure. The final episode of Saving Grace aired on June 21, 2010.
