While Arrow is no longer the CW show with the best ratings, the series continues to do well for the network. Could it possibly be cancelled or is it sure to be renewed for a sixth season? Stay tuned.
On Arrow, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) was ship-wrecked on a remote island in the South China Sea and presumed dead for five years. He returned home a changed man, bent on righting the wrongs of his family and fighting injustice. Other characters in season five are played by Katie Cassidy, Willa Holland, David Ramsey, Paul Blackthorne, Emily Bett Rickards, Echo Kellum, Josh Segarra, John Barrowman, and Colton Haynes.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

For comparisons: The fourth season of Arrow averaged a 0.94 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.49 million total viewers.
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Arrow TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a sixth season?
I enjoyed season 1-4 then when season 5 started i started losing intrest if season 6 is the last no big deal the storyline isnt great anymore its changed to much
I love the new season 5 of the ARROW! Just got the DVD yesterday I’m on the 3 disc already. I hope they carry on with the seasons of Arrow the new season is 10/10 I’m half way thrw the discs. Thank you
Renewed!!!!!
Seasons 1 and 2 were fantastic! I was entirely on board the Queen’s Gambit. Season 3 missed it’s target, proving even the Emerald Archer doesn’t always hit his mark. The fourth season’s awful writing and production plunged to the depths of the south China sea taking my faith in poor Ollie with it. After drowning in the ridiculous agendas of season 4, I didn’t bother watching a single episode of season 5. Maybe Arrow’s Show-runners should hire the Devil of Hell’s kitchen to remind them how to produce quality, because like other viewers I’ve abandoned this sinking ship with great… Read more »
Aarow is show id b pissed if it was canceled
Please…its seems when a good show starts they end the series. I suffer from insomnia and just stayed up and watched both 4th and 5th seasons…..i have loved this show from the start as with many others that have cancelled. Please do not ads this to the list. Thank you very dedicated watcher….
I was a big arrow fan until the last part if season 4. What turned me off to the show is that they built a relationship between felicity and oliver, then killed the relationship for no real good reason.

Good job writers!
Arrow has always been my favorite. The ratings did fall but the story is and always will be amazing. Rating will be more in the season 6
I kinda love the two Felicity/Olicity episodes had season low numbers (both viewer numbers and demo), does that make me a bad person? I’m just sick of a show called The Arrow concentrating so much on romance and hacking. Both are fine for subplots, but they should never be the focus. It’s a superhero show, if they want to concentrate so heavily on that or on Felicity they should make a spin-off like that Scorpion show. There’s definitely an audience out there for that stuff, but it’s not the same as the audience that regularly watches The Arrow (or would… Read more »
I don’t understand what the **** this season Is!!!!
I love arrow it’s one of the best alongside the 100
The 100 was fantastic but went badly downhill. Arrow is great.
For sure it’s sixth season should come they are working very hard….
I LOVE this series. I’ve just watched them all from beginning to the last I could find. Please keep it going. I’m so looking forward to it!
