Ballers Season 6: Why there is no season 6?

When the series was premiered initially, it got a lot of praise from the people. The ratings of the Ballers increase significantly. During the release of the first season, the show got 81% of new ratings on Rotten tomatoes. But, fame never lasts it was rightly depicted in this show. As the number of seasons increases, the show fails to maintain the interest of the people. 

The story started to look as if it was being extended without any head or foot. All these things led to the cancellation of the sixth season. The fourth season of the ballers was viewed by only 600,000 people while on the other hand, the second season got 2.21 Million views.

Now, another reason why this show got canceled was because of the criticism. It was reported through our report that there were certain allegations for the show. Ballers show was criticized for copying the plotline of the other shows on HBO. 

Moreover, The starting season of the show was worth watching for the fans. The audience loved the series during the initial phase but later the show was not able to maintain the same viewership which ultimately led to the cancellation. 

Neither the reviews were going great nor the viewership of the show was increasing. All these things were becoming the obstacles for season 6 and that’s why it got canceled.
