Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.

What do you think? Do you like the Vegas TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?

I was a street officer 6years a detective 16 years. Vegas is the show that I could get into very entertaining. My husband and I really enjoyed and looked forward to every episode . We are very disappointed that it may be dropped.
