The show was the first piece of original programming by A&E to stay on air for longer than one season, running between 2010 and 2013. It paved the way for original scripted programming on the channel. The announcement of its cancellation came just days after the news that the channel, owned by the Hearst Corporation and the Walt Disney company, would be renewing Longmire on its Fall 2013 roster. In addition, A&E is prepping its latest original scripted drama, the Chloe Sevigny starrer Those Who Kill, for 2014, along with the second season of Bates Motel.
