The programme, which starred Ben Miller, Douglas Henshall, Andrew-Lee Potts and former S Club 7 singer Hannah Spearritt, followed a group of scientists studying prehistoric and fantasy creatures.
ITV said in a statement. "After three very successful series of Primeval there are no plans at the present time for it to return to ITV. High quality drama remains a key part of the ITV schedule although our current focus is on post-watershed productions."
Earlier this year, ITV announced 600 job cuts and says it is now aiming to cut a further £40m in 2010. Primeval may have suffered because of the big-budget computer effects needed to generate its fantastical creatures.
The programme used expensive CGI effects to bring its creatures to life, and was created by Impossible Pictures, the team behind the BBC's Walking With Dinosaurs.
