If any press is good press than Jada Pinkett Smith is getting her fair share this summer. After three seasons as a top rated show on TNT, the network announced yesterday that HawthoRNe, which stars Smith as hospital executive Christina Hawthorne and Michael Vartan as her husband, surgeon Tom Wakefield, will not be returning for another season.
A TNT statement, reported by Reuters said that the network "truly appreciates the tremendous dedication of everyone involved in 'HawthoRNe.' The series gave TNT the opportunity to work with many outstanding people, including Jada Pinkett Smith and the rest of the show's talented cast, crew, producers and writers. We wish everyone involved with 'HawthoRNe' nothing but the best."
PRnewswire reported that the second season of the show had an average viewership of 3.7 million and ranked among the cable industry's top scripted series among women. The last episode aired on August 16.

Jada posted this on her Facebook page....
Jada Pinkett On Hawthorne: “Hey everyone…if you don’t know Hawthorne will not be returning for another season. I want to say thank you to all the fans for being Hawthorne soldiers. All our facebook fans…twitter soldiers and viewers…you held us down. Of course you know there is more to come…believe it!”
All the best programming on TNT is being canceled and or replaced with the exception of Leverage. I wish Hawthorne would have continued on, especially being that they ended the season on the craziest cliff hanger! — On the show,Jada was with her husband, and then with Marc Anthony, then husband tries to kill Marc Anthony, and they all work at the same hospital, they got busy in the supply closet, and her daughter is dating a married man who is going to leave his wife and kids for her, and Jada won’t tell her to leave him alone….. *facepalm*.
In all, I wish Jada the best! Something tells me she’ll wind up on another show, very soon.
