One of the few ABC TV series to show season-to-season growth in the ratings, The Goldbergs has been renewed for a third season.
Set in the late 1980s, The Goldbergs, revolves around a family from Jenkintown, Pennsylvania. Youngest son Adam (Sean Giambrone) videotapes his family’s craziness and provides commentary as an adult (Patton Oswalt). The rest of the cast includes Wendi McLendon-Covey, Troy Gentile, Hayley Orrantia, George Segal, and Jeff Garlin.
What a difference a timeslot can make. The Goldbergs struggled in its first season but ABC renewed it and moved it to Wednesday nights, sandwiched between The Middle and Modern Family.
That led to a big boost in the ratings for season two. It’s currently averaging a2.19 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 7.06 million viewers. That’s a season-to-season increase of 30% and 40% respectively.
What do you think? Are you watching The Goldbergs? Are you glad that it’s been renewed?
This show is brilliant and each character is perfectly cast.It doesn’t need audience laughter and I think everyone knows somebody a bit like each character in their lives.It is a big hit here in the U.K. I could watch many more series of this. Cancelling would be a big mistake and loss. Here’s a toast to The Goldbergs!
I’m 47 and I have to say I love this show! love the 80’s
The Goldbergs’ is better than the Middle and Modern Family.
Worst show ever., so they stick it between Middla and Modern Family. Putting lipstick on a pig i guess. Give the family some social time as we wait for Modern Family
I don’t know why this is not the highest rated show on TV. One of the Few the whole family can watch without some one cringing from bad language, suggestive dialog and sleazy dressing. Each actor is perfect for his/her character .
My adult son (46) was over for dinner and complained that they were taking off the best show.
One of the few shows that we LOVE as family!
I absolutely love this show. The best thing is- so does my 6 yr daughter. A truly rare thing to find something that we as a family can watch together. My husband says he doesn’t like it, but we all know he loves it too as he never leaves his ” Murray” chair” when it’s on lol!
This is by far my fav show!!! Ever!
Yaaaaaaaaay!!!!!!!
Bring it back
Best shof ever. Reminds me of my mom and dad….love it
So glad it’s getting renewed it so original and lifelike and everything about it just you know means so much to me and I’m just thrilled that there’s going to be a third season
I love this show. It totally takes me back to my youth. Need more clean simple comedies
