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?

Really good show. It is on my DVR list and I really enjoy it.
CORRECTION:
USUALLY SPEND TUESDAY NIGHTS ON CBS, IF VEGAS NOT WATCHED THAT NIGHT IT’S ON DVR. WATCHED GOLDEN BOY, NOT IMPRESSED. PLEASE KEEP VEGAS AND DON’T RENEW GOLDEN BOY. VEGAS IS A WELL WRITTEN SHOW AND INTRIGUING, CBS DON’T LOOSE THIS ONE.

Keep Vegas on already! Too many dumb shows and cartoons on.
I really get excited to the show every week. Me and my husband love the show and we need to know if they will show more of Cops verses the Mob. I hope it doesnt get canceled.
I look forward to watching ” Vegas” every week – I would not like to see it cancelled
Finally there is a show that is interesting to watch…..With the volume of reality shows,
can’t you allow a show with a plot to stay on the air…It is just fun to watch the 60′s fashions Please allow one show with a plot to stay on the air.
We are from Las Vegas, and we the the show Vegas! Great writing and cast members make for great entertainment. Vegas is so different from other shows, and it needs to stay on the air. We say “KEEP IT”!!

I tried to NEVER miss it. Actually it was the only program that I looked forward to on a weekly basis. Biggest difficulty for my family was the 10 pm Eastern time slot
My husband and I really like the show. We record all the episodes withe the dvr. Please don’t cancell it!!!!!
My husband and I both love this show, please keep it. It is a refreshing break from the blood and guts of so many shows.
I love Vegas, one of my favorite shows!
I adore Vegas, I will miss it!!
I love VEGAS. It is one of the few network shows that my husband and I watch (with the exception of NCIS & Blue Bloods). I am tired of networks catering to a certain age bracket by putting on idiotic shows with no depth or characterizations. VEGAS was one show that had both. If the networks continue to create plotless series, I guess I’ll resort to watching my DVD TV collection!
