Time ran out on "MacGyver" last week. We'll bid farewell to "Mom" next week, and "NCIS: New Orleans" soon after that. "Shameless" is done and "Superstore" has closed.

Yes, it's that bittersweet time of year when we're forced to part ways with some of our favorite TV shows.

We've compiled the following list of outgoing shows:

"Pose" - The groundbreaking drama series about the ballroom culture and life in the LGBTQ+ community during the 1980s and '90s kicked off its seven-episode final season on May 2. The series finale is set for June 6. (9 p.m. Sundays, FX).

"Mom" - Time for a big group hug. The warm-hearted sitcom that boldly told stories about recovery from alcoholism and addiction closes the curtain on its acclaimed eight-year run. (8 p.m. May 13, CBS).

"Last Man Standing" - The Tim Allen family sitcom that found new life on Fox after being cancelled by ABC, goes out for good this time. (8 p.m. May 20, Fox).

"NCIS: New Orleans" - The crime drama will go out with a wedding as Pride (Scott Bakula) and Rita (Chelsea Field) tie the knot. And, of course, there will be one more case to crack. CBS has already ordered another spin-off set in Hawaii. (9 p.m. May 23, CBS).

"The Kominsky Method" - Alan Arkin left the show last year and Season 3 will begin with the news that his character, Norman Newlander, has died. That means Sandy will now have to navigate his golden years without his best pal by his side. (May 28, Netflix).

"Conan" - Conan O'Brien will wrap up his long-running TBS late-night talk show on June 24 as he readies for a move to HBO Max, where he will host a weekly variety show. (10 p.m. weeknights, TBS).

"Van Helsing" - The vampire drama will end with its 13-episode fifth season, which launched on April 16. The season finds Vanessa, Violet, and Jack "risking everything to finally bring an end to the Dark One once and for all." (9 p.m. Fridays, Syfy).

"Keeping Up With the Kardashians" - The juicy reality series that brought us into the rich-and-famous lives of the Kardashians will come to an end after 14 years and 20 seasons. Though a finale date has yet to be announced, expect it to air in mid-June. (7 p.m. Thursdays, E!).
