Co-creator Joseph Mallozzi confirmed the cancellation of Dark Matter in a blog post that states:
It is with great sadness that I confirm the news.  Syfy has cancelled Dark Matter after three seasons.
To say that Iâm incredibly disappointed would be an understatement.
Iâll save my comments and field your questions in a future blog entry. Â For today, I just want to extend a heartfelt thanks to my amazing crew, my wonderful cast, and to all of you, our incredible fans.
You all deserved better.
