The cancellation of Lou Grant in 1982 was controversial. Asner served two terms as president of the Screen Actors Guild, in which capacity he voiced opposition to U.S. government policy in Central America, and worked closely with Medical Aid for El Salvador. It has been Asner's consistent position that his political views, as well as the publicity surrounding them, were the root causes for the show's cancellation. CBS denied that the cancellation had anything to do with Asner's politics, citing a fall in ratings for the last two seasons.The show's ratings had fallen from an average 19.6 rating over the previous three seasons to 16.6 in its final year, finishing the season 43rd among primetime network series.
