In its first season, How to Get Away with Murder was ABC’s highest-rated scripted series. The ratings slipped in season two and it fell to sixth place. Will the series rebound in season three or will the numbers continue to fall? Could it be cancelled or is it a lock for a fourth season renewal? Stay tuned.
A legal-thriller TV series, How to Get Away with Murder revolves around the world of Middleton University Professor Annalise Keating (Viola Davis). Murder, deception, fear and guilt bind her to her long-time associates Frank Delfino (Charlie Weber), Bonnie Winterbottom (Liza Weil), and her students, the “Keating 5.” As the group struggles to move on with their lives and to focus on their clients, their past continues to haunt them. The rest of the cast includes Billy Brown, Alfred Enoch, Jack Falahee, Aja Naomi King, Matt McGorry, Karla Souza, and Liza Weil.

Killing off Wes was a huge mistake. I and most of those I know are disgusted and leaving. Goodbye and good luck!
I absolutely love this show please make a fourth season I need to know what happens next!!!!
This show is awesome! The corrupt DA has to be brought to task. Please renew and expose him and his flunked.
HTGAWM is an amazing show! I love the plot twists and season 3 has been a roller-coaster ride. I think this season Annalise has become so much more likeable. I also LOVE Frank’s haircut, he’s soo hot. This show has to be RENEWED!!! There just aren’t enough episodes left in season 3 to finish this story in a satisfying way.
Miss Wes like crazy but the show is too good to quit. I would definitely recommend it. While most shows lose their greatness by season two htgawm will still have you at the edge of your seat on its third season.
I don’t watch a lot of T.V. but I have a list of shows for different season’s I watch. How to get away with murder is one of them. I love this show and all of the characters. I downloaded Hulu just to watch it on my phone because I’m at work when it airs. Please renew one of my favorite shows because Annalise and her crew rock!!!!
Wes was my favorite character I’m not over his death. It’s gonna be a very huge dramatic/change his character not being on the show no more I CANT BELIEVE THIS. I’m still gonna watch the show I’m a huge fan of the show. The only way I’ll stop watching the show is if it becomes uninteresting to me. Wes will be on the rest of season 3. I pray season 4 is good
love this show. keep it on the air.
I stopped after the pilot , enough said . This show is basically like OUAT , only ULTRA fans are willing to watching it .
It must be renewed! This is one of the best shows around and there’s still so much more to tell!
I Definetely feel that this series should be RENEWED for a season 4, because it’s the only reason why my friends and I even watch ABC. ONLY for this series nothing else. #Bestseries #HTGWM
Too convoluted. Moving on.
This was basically just a one season idea.
I disagree. It’s still great.
