Though it hasn’t been a ratings success, ABC has kept Nashville on the air. Will the numbers continue to fall this season? Is there a chance that it could be cancelled or is it essentially guaranteed to be renewed for a fourth season (because of potential syndication profits)? We’ll have to wait and see.
The Nashville TV show continues to follow the lives and careers of country music superstars Juliette Barnes (Hayden Panettiere) and Rayna Jaymes (Connie Britton). The rest of the cast includes Clare Bowen, Eric Close, Charles Esten, Sam Palladio, Jonathan Jackson, Chris Carmack, Lennon Stella, Maisy Stella, Will Chase, and Oliver Hudson.
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.
5/8 update: ABC has renewed Nashville for a fourth season.
Final season averages: 1.34 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 5.16 million total viewers.

Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.
For comparisons: The second season of Nashville averaged a 1.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 5.34 million total viewers.
Note: 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 still like the Nashville TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a fourth season?
Please renew for another year. The music is fantastic and I’m not even a big country western fan. But this my favorite show. There is so much junk on and this show is refreshing.
Love Nashville. If the show was on consistently instead if skipping so many weeks maybe the ratings would be higher!
Why does nashville keep having so many breaks. it sucks cause it seems to be the only show that has so many. People will start to get disinterested in it if not already.
Why does nashville have so many breaks . Love the show and don’t want it cancelled but what’s with all the breaks.
Please renew Nashville, my favorite show
My favorite show, pleade renew for a fourth season and beyond
This show has given me a chance to feel even closer to country music than I do, and I thought that was impossible. I have gotten attached to not only the actors/actresses, but also their beautiful voices. After almost every episode I find myself looking for the songs they sing online and having to watch Hulu just to hear the songs again. I Love Nashville!!!
You have to be kidding. This is my favorite show and I am an old guy. I love the characters and music. There is so much crap on tv but this is not one of them.
RENEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have watched Nashville since the first episode, and this is definitely worth leaving on the schedule! Love the storylines and excellent cast, wrapped up with great country music. Please give this show a chance, it’s my favorite and I’m sure I’m not the only one!
