Season 6 of Person of Interest has officially been cancelled by CBS. With the Season 5 premiere, fans will have to enjoy the final 13 episodes, as Harold Finch (Michael Emerson) John Reese (Caviezel) engage battle in the war between Samaritan and The Machine?

In our fourth season finale recap, the war between the Machine and Samaritan left casualties and forged new alliances in its wake. After presumed dead, Sameen Shaw (Sarah Shahi) was last seen walking away willingly with Samaritan's agents. While Samaritan was executing its master plan, Greer's men put a bag over Control (Camryn Manheim)'s head and took her hostage. In the cliff-hanger, as Pink Floyd's Welcome to the Machine started playing, Finch (Emerson) walked out, with no gun, alongside Reese (Caviezel) and Root (Amy Acker) as they started shooting down Samaritan's agents.

According to TV Line, with these last 13 episodes,CBS has decided to air Person of Interest twice a week. On Mondays and Tuesdays, viewers will catch an episode at 10pm, starting in early May.The series finale is slated for Tuesday, June 21.

Showrunners Jonathan Nolan and Greg Plageman released a statement to IGN, " This subversive little paranoia-inducing cyberpunk-thriller is for you and would not have been possible without your support. As life has come to imitate Person of Interest, it's been our great privilege to work on show for the past five seasons. We can't wait for you to experience this thrilling and final chapter."

For POI fans, it is such sad news to hear their show, especially since the cancellation was inevitable.The show was absent from CBS' original 2015-16 schedule but the final nail in the coffin was when we mentioned co-star Sarah Shahi (Sameen Shaw) landed the lead role in CBS' Nancy Drew drama pilot.

Season 5 of Person of Interest will premiere on CBS Tuesday, May 3 at 10pm.
