Bad News for Revenge Fans, Good News for Victoria Grayson

At long last it seems Emily Thorne will finally get her revenge, or at least we won't have to watch her getting it anymore.

Yep, ABC has announced that Revenge will not be renewed for a fifth season and will come to an end at the end this year.

Executive producer Sunil Nayar said of the decision to end the show, "We can officially tell our fans that this will be the end of the story.

"We've been talking to the network and we all just wanted to make sure that we felt very confident. Now that everybody has seen the finale - which is fabulous - everybody understands that as much as we all adore the show, it has hit exactly the mark it needed to, to end. This is the series finale of Revenge that will be airing in a couple weeks."

The show was a ratings hit when it first debuted back in 2011, although numbers have dwindled in later seasons so it probably is about time they wrapped things up for Emily and the gang.

So how will it all end? Navar said; "There’s a tiny little cliffhanger in the series finale,” he says. “We don’t want people to get weary of the stories we’re telling, so we felt like they deserve an ending to this novel that Mike Kelley started four years ago. I really feel like the last couple chapters are worthy of the first many.”

He went on to say; “There are really shocking things that happen in the finale. It’s a tricky thing because the fans are such passionate lovers of the show and we really want to give them what they want, but the hard part about a finale in a show like this is you want to give them some of what they want, some of what they don’t know they want yet and some of what they never expected, and it needs to be a perfect mix of all those things. I truly believe our finale is the perfect mix of all those three things. I think they’re going to be extremely satisfied."

The final episode is called Two Graves though worryingly enough. They'd hardly have Emily die though.... right? That would be no craic.

Do you care about Emily/Amanda any more? We used to but now we wish she'd just take Jack and his tea towel collection and get out of town...

You can see Revenge on RTÉ2, Tuesdays at 9.55pm.
