Last season, The 100 dropped a bit in the ratings but other The CW shows saw much bigger losses. Will the show’s numbers continue to fall or will they rise? Cancelled or renewed for a fourth season? Stay tuned.
The 100 follows a group of young people who are sent back to Earth nearly 100 years after a nuclear Armageddon destroyed civilization. The cast includes Eliza Taylor, Paige Turco, Bob Morley, Marie Avgeropoulos, Christopher Larkin, Devon Bostick, Isaiah Washington, Henry Ian Cusick, Lindsey Morgan, Ricky Whittle, and Richard Harmon.
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.
3/11 update: The CW has renewed this TV show and 10 others for the 2016-17 season.
5/20 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated charts, please try reloading the page. You can also see them here.
For comparisons: The second season of The 100 averaged a 0.52 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.54 million total viewers.
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 100 TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a fourth season?
So many people are upset over Ricky Whittle leaving the show including myself. His interview could negatively impact the shows ratings. Lincoln’s death and Ricky’s interview affected my eagerness to watch the show. The fact that he could have stayed causes disappointment. I had already started to lose interest when Bellamy joined Team Pike. Even though Bellamy eventually realized he was wrong. He may never be trusted again. He was my favorite character so that is a huge letdown. Seasons 1 and 2 will always be the best. Lexa was an awesome character, but she wasn’t one of the main… Read more »
Lexa was the only reason a lot of people were even watching the show. now it’s horse manure.
These are the lowest ratings ever for this show – tells you how many have left this show.. writing is so poor
That’s not true the ratings are about the same as last year and will likely end at about the same. Not everyone is a shipper and not everyone is upset a lesbian died. It’s already been renewed for another season so the network is happy with the numbers which is all that really counts.
The ratings aren’t the same as last year. The lowest rated episode for Season 2 was the season finale at a 1.34 and a 0.4 demo. CW renewed every single one of it’s shows. That doesn’t say anything good or bad about The 100 or them being happy with the ratings they are getting. The latest episode is a series low. I do expect ratings to stabilize at this new low. But it is still a new low.
They are very likely to end with a 1.54 just the same as last season. If they are not happy with the ratings then they will cancel but that is not the case. So yes they are happy and if your not well that is your problem.
already been renewed ?
Yes, S4 is a go. 🙂 Scheduled for Midseason, like S3 was, and will most likely premiere in January/February 2017. Filming will begin in August.
Best show . to me honestly better than the walking dead by far. Plus not to add Raven is my boothang.
I have no idea why the 100 is getting 16 episode in the 3rd season it should got 22 episodes
I watch cw network programing shows on cw app where I can actually watch my favorite shows
All of my favorite tv shows are about to be canceled I’m going around here in tears
Sometimes I thinks o, too, but with 16 episodes in a very serialized show like The 100 you don’t have that much filler episodes, a great plus IMO. Besides, it always got between 13 and 16 episodes a season because the showrunner requested it.
I don’t think it will be cancelled.
I hope not
I hope it gets cancelled. 🙂
Why? It’s a great to show
Yeah.. me too 🙂 and it seems like it will… coz ratings are going down
It’s already been renewed for Season 4 so ha,ha,ha…
woohooo. Take that haters!
you dont like the show then stop watching, and stop trying to ruin it for everyone else. Jeesh. These Lexa fans are annoying as hell.
Love it bring it back just watched every show on netflix
The best show on the CW right now, it deserves better viewership than it is currently getting and hope it gets renewed for a few more seasons at least.
Marketing for this show sucks compared to others on this network. By far the best show Cw has and easily one off the top tv shows out there.
Last year I would have agreed. I liked the characters and story was compelling. This year, not very good.
This has got to be one of the best dramas of the season. Its not getting enough viewers because noone knows it’s on! The only way I found it was Netflix.
Highest rating was first episode. Dropped 13% right after that and now down 33%. People saw it and didn’t like it. I was fan via iTunes for first two seasons. Really hated the way this season started. I liked Clark as the moral but complex leader making the tough decisions. Now she’s a sleazy Tarzan? Jasper and other characters ruined. A lot of fans quit watching.
agreed this show is awesome such great writing and action. One of my favorites please keep it on for 10 seasons lol
This show is amazing and HAS TO BE RENEWED!!!!!
This is a great start for S3! Regarding the episode AND the ratings. Never was this high since episode 1.02.
As @FightOwensFight mentioned, I’d also like to see more than the usual Nielsen ratings. At least for The CW the Social Media rating is as important as the TV rating and a good hint on renewal chances.
honey… this shows social media ratings are going down too (like ratings) because of Lexa..
Honey… when I wrote this there was nothing to complain about Lexa.
Btw, despite all drama and preemption in Chicago (the third largest TV market in the US) this week, it’s still #5 on Daily Top Five Nielsen Twitter Ratings (April 7th).
you mean like Season 1 and Season 2, when its doing exactly the same pattern? Stop trying to make Lexa more important than she was… obnoxious
This is my favorite CW show with izombie right behind it! CW better realize how good it is or they are crazy! Love the show and Clark kicks ass. This character is badass all the way. I can’t wait to see where the plotline goes this season. I like that she finds love with the other female characters even if it is fleeting. Keep up the good work!
The 100 is huge… For CW, for TV… I’d love to see more than same day ratings posted tho… Guarantee this is a front runner up there with The Flash. It has a lot of buzz and is constantly trending on social media outlets… I think Netflix has rly helped the show grow an audience as well… Hope to see this run for many more seasons, the possibilities are endless!
I hope there’s a fourth season, I love this show
