Compared to Unforgettable’s series debut a year earlier, CBS was down by 14% in the demo (vs a 2.9 rating) and down by 4% in viewers (vs 14.09 million). While the viewership is very impressive, the demo is less so and CBS has cancelled many series for low demo numbers.
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?

Great show. Would hate to see it cancelled. My husband and I watch it every week.
We love to watch Vegas. Everyone we talk to enjoys the show as well. Please don’t let it be cancelled.
VEGAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please renew Vegas. It is a great series!!
Vegas one of the greatest new series to come on the scene. NO NO do not cancel this program
Can you guys keep anything on that people enjoy
I’m guessing VEGAS didn’t air enough GRAPHIC sex and violence to appeal to this generations audience. I can’t help thinking that after reading that “Banshee”one of the season’s newest shows which included a graphic oral sex scene in it’s opening show has already been contracted for a second season. Have we become that salacious a society? Please keep good quality television going!
Keep Vegas! Best new show in years! Love the characters and story line!
Love Vegas! Great show, beautiful sets. Please don’t cancel!
Best show on TV!! Along with Blue Bloods of course.
Vegas should be renewed. Great show!
One of the best shows on TV. Hope to see it back next season!!!!!
Keep this! Can’t wait to see how it plays out. Love the cast!
We look forward every week to watch this show. We love it and want to see it come back.
