CBS continues to look for new hit sitcoms. Last year’s The Crazy Ones, Bad Teacher, We Are Men, and Friends With Better Lives were all cancelled while Mom and The Millers survived. How will The McCarthys stack up in the ratings? Will it be cancelled too or renewed for a second season? We’ll have to wait and see.
The McCarthys revolves around sports-crazed family from Boston. Athletically-challenged and gay son Ronny (Tyler Ritter) plans to finally move away to start his own life. Those plans are thrown into turmoil when his basketball coach dad (Jack McGee) offers him a job as assistant coach — much to the dismay of Ronny’s siblings. The sitcom also stars Laurie Metcalf, Jimmy Dunn, Joey McIntyre, and Kelen Coleman.
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: CBS has cancelled The McCarthys, leaving four episodes unaired.
Final season averages: 1.18 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 5.46 million total viewers.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page. You can also see them here.
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 like The McCarthys TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a second season?
C’mon CBS Give this show a shot ! Its great comedy with a great cast ! Waiting for a guest role from Roseanne or Estelle Parsons as Marjorie’s Aunt maybe ?? Also find Gerard’s g/f a real hoot to watch !
All good things get better with time
Keep this show!! Love Laurie Metcalf, the husband, the adult kids – the entire show is such a great change from all the blood, murder, over sexed, violent shows out there. It is wonderful to have a light hearted, funny and not offensive show for a change. PLEASE keep itt!!!!!!!!!!Please keep it!!!!

The McCarthys is a wonderful show ….. The characters on this show is 1000 times better than most of today’s family sitcoms …… Please keep for another season
Please dont cancell the mccarthys.I watch it every thursday its a great show.Its funny and i love joey mcintyre and the other cast members are awesome.cancell big bang theory or 2 and a half men never cared for neither of those shows.
Awesome show! Keep them coming please. Started watching because of Joey McIntyre, but everyone is funny. Especially Laurie Metcalf. Give it a chance. Another season!!!
With all the reality TV on these days, The Mc Carthy’s is a nice break from all of those shows. Please consider keeping it on the air for a second season,
I think it should be renewed, but moved to follow The Big Bang Theory. It’s time slot is what is killing it, no one watches 2 and a half men anymore.
Please don’t cancel this show. I love watching it. If I don’t catch it on Thursday night aI watch it on demand. Please keep it
I love it! It’s got a bad time slot though, following the “ailing” 2 1/2 Men is hard. I vote to keep The Mc Cartheys alive, give it a chance to grow. Don’t give up on it!
PLEASE keep this show on the air!! It’s funny, it’s real, it’s everything a comedy should be. The cast is superb and really knows how to pull the audience into the show, like we’re watching friends rather than some fake family. I think The McCarthys ended up with a less than favorable time slot, if it had a chance after, say, The Big Bang Theory, it would open up new doors for the show. Please please please keep bringing us The McCarthys – we want a second season!!! #WeAreAllMcCarthys
