The Futon Critic says that it got 1.376 million viewers. In comparison, Disney's airing of The Princess and the Frog (featuring the Nick voice of Stella as Tiana's best friend ) got 3.147m, and Nick's own airing of the SpongeBob movie (on a Saturday morning) got 3.16m. Make of that as you will.

This is worrying. I would have thought they would finish season 5. Even if its at a rubbish time. Season 6 though could be in real trouble depending on the contract. Though this is becomming a self fulfilling propecy. Just as thing start to get toward the end and out building up another long break comes along. Winx has now had 3 or 4 breaks now in one season and its just not big enough in America to be able to do that.

There probably just taking another break to space it out as much as possible. Why? Who knows, all I can say is that it's kind of frustrating and annoying. I mean There's only 3 episode left, really nick really?

This is concerning about winx in the U.S. it might not get the ratings that disney does, but I feel like Nick needs to give it a chance to grow. Or at least someone needs too and it doesn't seem like anyone is, which doesn't make sense to me since it is so popular in Europe it seems.

What's weird is that I saw multiple commercials today for Winx merchandise being sold at Toys R Us and other retailers, but that seems like such a waste if they're not even showing episodes anymore.

This! If there was a real reason for the break, like mid-season, then it would be ok. But this? It's like they don't feel like airing the show at all =/
At this point since there have been no announcements of cancelling I say nick is probably trying to stretch the season as long as possible remember nick is famous for doing this with there shows after all it's not just America from what I heard the other English speaking countries have yet to complete there season and its not just winx a lot of there other shows such as power rangers and tmnt have yet to air any new episodes in weeks hopefully either this Sunday or next Sunday there'll finally finish the season.

Just checked TV Guide and there's currently no showing for Winx Club showing. It says a movie is playing at this time "Racing Stripes". Then the next suday after that is listing Cat&Sam or Sam&Cat repeats.

I wouldn't get surprise if the shows are to be cancelled. But since it only left a few episodes, it should be cleared as soon as possible isn't it? They bought the series, and I think that it might be a waste for them not to air them all.
The merchandise aren't the things we should worry about, since its sales are quite successful at the moment.
Well Since nick is updating its site with older Winx club season 5 episodes I say there probably waiting closer to the end of June or beginning of July since from what I heard it's not just us neither Australia nor Britain have got any new episode and have largely been airing reruns.
But I do agree it is getting frustrating having to wait for the last three.

Ugghhhh! I just wanna see the last 3 episodes! It was just getting good. I saw the the ones on YouTube in Italian and they look like Great episodes. I hope they don't do this next season either
I'm reminded of how 4K took a 3-month break between 3x07 and 3x08, then again between 3x17 and 3x18... granted, that's not as extreme as what Nick's been doing, but still...
