Many Friday night sitcoms have come and gone on ABC in the past few years — shows like Cristela, The Neighbors, and Malibu Country. Will Dr. Ken survive to see a second season or, will it be cancelled too? Stay tuned.
Based on the experiences of creator and star Ken Jeong, Dr. Ken follows the life of a brilliant but unorthodox physician who occasionally leaves his bedside manner at home. The cast also includes Suzy Nakamura, Tisha Campbell-Martin, Dave Foley, Kate Simses, Jonathan Slavin, Albert Tsai, and Krista Marie Yu.
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 — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

What do you think? Do you like the Dr. Ken TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for second season?
I looked forward to my Friday night escape for some laughs. I might add that I do not generally get into sitcoms but Last Man Standing and Dr Ken are hilarious. I have been missing them theses past weeks.
This show has turned into a sausage fest! OFF THE AIR!!
One of the most stupid shows. Not funny at all. Take it off the air.
