ReplyDeleteI too will be complaining and canceling. We arent happy with tv options as it is. Plz update blog for us Bates family we miss you. Alabama
DeleteSame here too.. I'm praying it is. All my family loves the show and them.
DeleteI am canceling mine too.
DeleteGuy's uptv have filmed season 11. That should put the last season on tv. We didn't want to miss out on Nathan and Katie wedding and a lot more. We love the Bates. Thanks
DeleteJust canceled my uptv subscription. The Bates were the only reason I had one. I am just heartbroken.
DeleteIt says they aren't airing season 11.
DeleteAlthough they've filmed season 11, UpTV will not be airing it. I guess you missed that part. :(
DeleteJust canceled my uptv subscription today, no need to have it any longer
DeleteI no longer will watch UpTv since you canceled Bringing up Bates. I posted it on website and on FB.
DeleteNO more UPTV for us...at our house..either
Deleteof course, cancel great shows like this wholesome loving family life and keep the evil doings of Big Sky. Life is hard enough to deal with, at least we can sit back and see how loving families can all get along, support each other and grow. Evil and diabolical wins out??
DeleteThis is very upsetting! Bringing Up Bates is one of the best shows on TV. Not cool UPTv.
ReplyDeleteSo sad to take off the air. Really enjoyed and loved this beautiful family show.
ReplyDeleteHope your family can get on another network 🙏
ReplyDeleteI pray that your family continues to prosper and be blessed. Thank you for sharing your lives with us, and more importantly, thanks for the godly examples of faith, love, and family. This show was the only thing that I watched on UP; so I will part ways with them going forward. I’m so sad to see the show cancelled!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your lives with us over the past ten season. More importantly, thanks for the godly examples of faith, love, and family. I pray your family continues to prosper and be blessed in this new season of change. This show was the only reason I watched UPTV; now I have no reason to.
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame. Your show was the only thin I watched on UP TV I hope you continue to keep us up to date with what the family is doing.
ReplyDeleteI won’t be watching UPTV anymore. Bringing up Bates is the only show I watched. No need to keep my subscription.
ReplyDeleteI almost bought a subscription for UPTV just the watch Bringing Up bates, I won't be subscribing now
ReplyDeleteYou all will be dearly missed i looked forward to your show
ReplyDeleteJust want to say Bringing Up Bates has been one of our families absolute favorite tv shows, it doesn’t compare to anything else out there! We will sure miss it!
ReplyDeleteThis breaks my heart. After not able to get a few seasons due to not having it on my cable, now I have it, but I don't have you. It would be so wonderful if God Blessed you with your own station!! God Bless You All with lifting prayers. ☝������������
ReplyDeleteWe will no longer support UPTv! This will be removed from viewing package! The Bates Family has always been a huge blessing to us and it's a decent and wholesome program! UPTv, you just took a nosedive!!
ReplyDeleteI hope and pray another network chooses to pick it up
ReplyDeleteUPtv lost me as a customer. Quite frankly I'm getting sick of all the gooey love movies.
ReplyDeleteUPtv lost me. Quite honestly I'm getting sick of the proliferation of all the sappy love movies.
ReplyDeleteI canceled my subscription last night. This was one of the reasons I signed up and paid for...not cool up tv.
ReplyDeleteI loved your show and couldn’t wait to see the 11th season. You where on of 3 shows I watch and now it is Gone. Tv is not the same anymore and older I get less tv I watch b/c the shows are not has good has they where in the 80’s and 90’s. I will miss watching you guys but I will still ready everything that is on Facebook about you guys. You guys made my week and now there is nothing great to watch.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your family, faith and values with us. I absolutely love your show and I am heartbroken it will not be returning! I wish you all the best!! May God continue to bless you and your family. God is great!! I love you all
ReplyDeleteBoycott UPtv...bring the Bates back...let them know that they will be losing alot of fans if they do not being back!!
ReplyDeleteI canceled my subscription as soon as I heard. May God continue to bless your family.
ReplyDeleteI'm canceling that channel! Why would I pay additional 7.00 per month and not see my favorite show. Huge mistake! Everything else on that channel is reruns, can see else where or not worth seeing any way. I literally only watch UPTV for the Bates.
ReplyDeleteHorrible decision on UPtv part. Losing a lot of subscribers. 😠
ReplyDeleteI am so sad. This is the one decent show that I loved to watch as did my kids. I will still follow the blog but oh how you all will be missed.
ReplyDeleteWe are deeply saddened at this sudden announcement. You’ve all been a blessing to our lives , and we will miss seeing you very much! God bless all of you In the days ahead. We love and pray for you.
ReplyDeleteWill you be contracting with another network for the show? I have alway loved ur show
ReplyDeleteI am hoping and praying another network picks them up.
ReplyDeleteOh no, I love watching your show
ReplyDeleteI will canceling mine as well!!
ReplyDeleteYou have messed up !!!! This was your best show and you let it go .Goodbye Uptv . rethink your move and bring them back !!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo sad!! There are not enough wholesome T.V shows on, I really Loved your show, enjoy hearing about all your families adventures. God Bless you all, you will be missed.
ReplyDeleteI will really miss not being able to watch Bringing Up Bates. ☹ One of my favorite shows. Loved seeing ya'll each week.
ReplyDeleteHeartbroken. I literally just searched your show 15 minutes ago, on Xfinity, to see if there were any upcoming episodes. This show was mental medicine for me. I always felt good after watching and had a better outlook on the world.
ReplyDeleteLoved watching your show. Will miss you guys. Saw post earlier about this. Was not pleased with UPTV. Hope you can find another channel to pick you guys up. Starting watching you when you were on the Duggars show and really enjoyed your family. Take care.
ReplyDeleteIt was a show that I looked forward to every week.
ReplyDeleteWhat about it starting in February they already set a release date for new season
ReplyDeleteIptv sucks,will no longer watch this channel.
ReplyDeleteI'm so very sorry!I truly enjoyed watching your love & faith for your family grow every week
ReplyDeleteThis is very upsetting. This is a family oriented show and I can only imagine what it will be replaced with. I don’t care to watch UpTv again😞
ReplyDeleteI’m very disappointed and hope another network is smart enough to pick up your show. It’s the best on tv to watch. Good wholesome show for kids as well as adults. Very disappointed. 😔💔
ReplyDeleteBery sad..the only thing i didnt like about the show was that it needed to be 1.hour long instead.of 30 minutes... love the Bates family
ReplyDeleteBery sad..the only thing i didnt like about the show was that it needed to be 1.hour long instead.of 30 minutes... love the Bates family
ReplyDeleteSo sad. I love this family.
ReplyDeleteDevastating!!!
ReplyDeleteThis breaks my heart. The only reason I had a subscription was to watch this show. It is something I truly enjoyed watching. I have canceled my UPTV subscription and will continue to follow your beautiful family on social media. Thank you for the many years of inviting into your lives.
ReplyDeleteYep cancelled mine to only had it for the bates.
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love the sweet Bates family and the only show that watched on Up was Bringing up Bates so I will no longer watch that channel. Extremely disappointed in you Up tv. This was by far the best show on tv!! ☹️😓
ReplyDeleteThis is more than just upsetting. The Bates family are a wonderful,inspirational and a family that kids as well as adults can look up to. In today's world where the majority of shows on TV as well as cable aren't fit for anyone to watch. People are worse for watching and wasting their time. When a show like the Bates have it makes people better and inspired even if it's only for a short time every week. UpTV you really messed up. I know there are smarter execs out there that will run to their door and pick up their show. We got your backs Bates fam! As smart as your kids are they could produce and put it on the internet themselves! Love you all... And thank you for being there for all who watch and learn from y'all!
ReplyDeleteI will be cancelling my subscription as well. I love this show.
ReplyDeleteThis is so sad. I love Bringing Up Bates. It is my favorite show. I really wish the executives in charge of production and filming at UPTV would change their minds.
ReplyDeleteWill not be watching UP
ReplyDeleteThe Bates Family is the ONLY reason I watch UpTV, will cancel subscription!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo sad! Maybe there can be some family specials throughout the year? I would love to continue watching as the family grows. We all feel like we are part of the extended family and love the value you all hold true to. Your faith in Christ is so encouraging.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely disgraceful I've already cancelled my UPTV subscription I only had it because of you and your beautiful family!!
ReplyDeleteI am so very sad to hear this news! This is such an inspirational family with Godly values, which is almost obsolete in television today! There are so little shows on TV now for families to watch together. I also will be cancelling my UPTV subscription, since this was the only show worth watching. God bless you all, and please keep everyone informed of any new developments on other possible networks.

ReplyDeleteIn my opinion it is a huge mistake to take a family off f tv who represents everything good. Especially in today’s world where we are surrounded by constant disfunction. Bate’s family represents a close relationship with god, love, family values, power of forgiveness & so many other things.
ReplyDeleteI am definitely canceling my UpTv subscription.
For those of you who are interested, here's the link to contact Uptv if you want to make a complaint: https://uptv.com/contact/ The more complaints they get, the better.
ReplyDeleteI really hate this I was hoping to see Lawson's engagement as well as Nathan's and Katie's weddings. Cancelled up faith and family last night.
ReplyDeleteI love your show. This really breaks my heart. This is a terrible move for up tv!!
ReplyDeleteI cancelled my UpTv subscription!! Cannot have wholesome family shows on tv anymore. Praying another channel will see how ignorant UpTv is an pick the show up!! I cannot believe UpTv fell to pressure knowing how popular the family is and the ratings are high!! We should boycott UpTv and not watch anymore of their shows!! BOYCOTT UPTV NOW!!!
ReplyDeleteWas very disappointed to hear the news. Definitely will be canceling our UPTV subscription. Do you have a list of all the families YouTube channels someplace? I love seeing the weekly or biweekly updates from the various grown kids.... don't want to miss any since we won't have your show any more. My daughter's and I have enjoyed watching the show together for years. Sad that our family tradition is coming to an end. God Bless you all!!!
ReplyDeleteAll the issues have become a political hot potato and no one wants to take the risk that it will hurt their financial intrests. I am shocked honestly shocked the network didn't kill the show when Josh Duggar was convicted... I wonder if the Amazon exposé on the IBLP had. Anything. To do with it...kind of late to blame Josh Duggar...
ReplyDeleteIt honestly did not have anything to do with the Duggar family.
DeleteI am so sad. I always looked forward to seeing you and your family. It had values and you represented Godly lives and pray you continue to see God's leading and blessing your family. Praying for you. Would it be possible for you to keep us informed of your family events. Hope you will be on another station or keep sending information. Love and Prayers
ReplyDeleteI can't believe this ..I love the Bates ..going to send uptv a message ..nor happy about this ..good clean Christian show ..this is not right
ReplyDeleteThis is so sad. I have never missed a single episode of Bringing Up Bates. It is the only show I watch on Up TV. Without y'all on no reason to keep the channel. Praying Netflix or some other outlet picks it up. Congrats to all on the birth of little Finley Paine
ReplyDeleteI as well will be cancelling my subscription to UPTV! I am in utter shock over this. Not only has this family brought me so much joy, it got me to visit the fine state of Tennessee and as of 2 years ago, I live here. This show has meant the world to me and without a doubt it is the best show on t.v. If UPTV is looking for a more wholesome family, they will not find one. Can't believe this has been taken away from us. Praying another network picks up Bringing Up Bates.
ReplyDeleteThis is so sad. Another nice, kind, friendly, enjoyable show bites the dust. It would be great if someone else picks it up, but until then I’ll keep checking out the blogs. God Bless the entire Bates family.
ReplyDeleteOne of the only reality shows that portray really nice people that love God. They are a beautiful family and I’m heartbroken that it was not renewed. Another network should jump on this opportunity to bring it back to life.
ReplyDeleteI'm canceling my subscription also. I only had it so I could watch Bringing Up Bates. I love your family. You've changed my life so much. I'll say or do something and I'll get asked how'd you know that, or where you learned that. My answer is always Bringing Up Bates I'm truly inspired by your family.
ReplyDeleteLove your show please bring it back
ReplyDeleteMy entire family loved the show Ages 6 to 61,I am very sad to hear it's been taken off the air, We could not wait to watch the next episode. Now I will be canceling my subscription. There's no other show that compares to this one it's been positive uplifting and we are going to miss it tremendously, I had been patiently waiting for the new season Only to be crushed to hear it's no longer being shown.
ReplyDeleteTo add to my previous comment, not all the kids have left home and we would now have the joy of watching the grandkids grow and they're journeys!!!
ReplyDeleteNoooo I love the Bates Family. Please bring them back. @batesfamily, please start a YouTube channel since they are not renewing your contract. I am disappointed with Uptv very disappointed 😞
ReplyDeleteMake no mistake- this was Christian persecution. There is a large faction in the US that are non-Christians, atheists and even satanists who hate Christian values & beliefs, especially concerning LGBT. Like Katie Joy (Without A Crystal Ball) on Youtube with 214K followere & on Instagram with 80K, who almost daily trashes the Bates as well as the Duggars & the IBLP. They've all been just waiting for any reason to get "Bringing Up Bates" cancelled.
ReplyDeleteWill be canceling my UP subscription and I hope another station picks you up. I was looking forward to the upcoming weddings and engagements. I will continue to follow the kids on YouTube!
ReplyDeleteI am very sad. I love this show! No need to watch Up Tv anymore. Very disappointed ☹️
ReplyDeleteI no longer have up tv. They dropped the Bates. I dropped them. I hope the Bates get another station to pick them up
ReplyDeleteI love their show
They are my favorite show to watch
. I have watched season 1-10 over and over.
Up tv will regret it from what I have seen so far. A lot of people are dropping them.
Sorry to hear they canceled your show, I enjoyed watching it ever episode live ya all & prayers for ya all & family & grandchildren will miss ya all
