A tale as old as time… is clocking out.
The CW has announced that "Beauty and the Beast" will end its run after Season 4, which is currently wrapping production and will air at midseason/summer 2016 (exact date TBA).
Starring Kristin Kreuk and Jay Ryan in the title roles, the supernatural-tinged take on the romantic fairy tale averaged 1.6 million viewers and a 0.6 demo rating during its freshman run (which had a buzzy "Vampire Diaries" for a lead-in), but during Season 3 (where it self-started summertime Thursdays) it mustered just 880K and a 0.2.
