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?
Are you kidding?! Why cancel this show?! It just keeps getting better. Love the story line and the music! One of the best shows on TV because it is fresh!
Most other shows about criminal behavior, murder, sexual assault and now politics. PLEASE KEEP IT!
I am a 68 y.o Englishman in Italy and have watched all the episodes on couchtuner and have to say this is one of the best shows ever. How they can possibly not do a fourth series is sacrilege. I miss it already and it is only 4 days since I finished all the episodes.
Nashville has been one of my most favorite shows..It has great singing great realistic storylines..Everybody love watching so much other garbage.I wish they would toon into Nashville..I love it and would love for it to be renewed for a fourth season
I keep looking for Nashville And am upset at even the possibility that it could be cancelled. Great characters, great storyline and great acting! Please please please….. Bring them back!
It is absolutely the best show.Its unlike any other, very real and enjoyable
Please renew it!!!!
I am definitely NOT in the 18-49 age category, but I LOVE this show. Nothing else like it on tv. Storylines are great — actors are fabulous perfectly cast and they can sing too! Please, please keep it on. I don’t watch the top-rated police or CSI type dramas — it’s my favorite show since Everwood went off the air quite a few years ago.
its a great show- the music is so good
Please keep it! We love it in Grand Prairie, TX!
Definitely keep it. Tremendous talent and refreshing story line.
