Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.

Love the show don’t cancel, you will be leaving a lot of us hanging. Can’t wait for season two. Please don’t cancel
please give it a chance. i love alcatraz it truly is one of the best shows on tv.
Loved It!!!! Need to know what happens to the rest of the prisoners. Please dont cancel it!
Please renew this show. We love it! If you are not going to renew it PLEASE at the very least tell us the gist of what was really going on back with the prisoners, with the silver, with Tommy Madson, the no aging thing, how the Doctor survived, what was going on with the Warden etc…. we will need some closure – DO NOT LEAVE IT ALL HANGING.
Love this show- please, renew! This show is one of the best on TV.
I would like to know if you are going to cancel this show! My husband and I are sick of reality shows. Please put this show back on!! Please let us know
please let there be a second season of Alcatraz it is a really great show and I would love to see why Tommy Madison keeps having his blood taken and also to find out what happens with Rebecca Madison (Tommy’s Granddaughter)
Please keep Alcatraz on. It is a truly entertaining show. Love to watch it.
I love Alcatraz but I don’t understand why Tommy Madison keeps having his blood taken.
keep the show, have dvr’d the shows and just watched them all. to cancel would be like telling us all that you dont care about what we want to watch, just hook a few and then on to the next. like tara nova, you didnt give it a chance neither, this is the reason why we dont watch the tv series in the first place, they never get to finish running
PLZ i love this show it is way better then half of the other show u guys put out it would be a shame to see it go… PLZ bring it back
Keep Alcatraz. It is one off the best shows on TV. It would be an awful shame if cancelled.
Love it and would to see the second season!!
PLEASE give Alcatraz a second season. It has plenty of substance to it, unlike most of tv programming. Great characters, great actors, and plot for goodness sake. There’s precious little besides FLUFF and so called reality shows (YAWN). ANOTHER SEASON PLEASE!!!!
Please renew Alcatraz. We watched it every Monday!!!!!!!! Can’t wait for season two.
