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?

I see that there is a new show in the Tuesday 10pm time slot, I hope this isn’t an indication that Vegas is going away? My wife and I really enjoy Vegas and hope that CBS is going to continue to air this excellent program.

I totally agree with Donna! Please, please do NOT cancel this interesting and “keep your eyes glued” to this TV series. It is by far the best that was being shown on TV today. It would be a HUGE, BIG mistake on CBS’s part to cancel!

I hope that Vegas stays on the air as I am a huge fan. My favorite shows are Vegas, Person of Interest and The Good Wife. All three of these shows have interesting characters and great stories.

My wife and I never miss an episode of these shows. With all the shows that are either reality series or weak writing, it would seem this should at least be given the benifit of the doubt. I hope there is something the network can do to help bolster this series.

Please, please keep this show. It would be a big mistake on CBS’s part by not renewing it. You do not want to be a bottom feeder with NBC do you?
