The original 24 TV show was a big ratings success for the FOX network for several years. Now, they’re trying a spinoff called 24: Legacy. Can this action TV series survive without the onscreen presence of Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer? Will 24: Legacy be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
On 24: Legacy, it’s a race against the clock to stop a devastating terrorist attack on United States soil. Six months ago in Yemen, an elite squad of US Army Rangers, led by Sergeant Eric Carter (Corey Hawkins), killed terrorist leader Sheik Ibrahim Bin-Khalid. In the aftermath, Bin-Khalid’s followers declared a fatwah against Carter, his squad, and their families. This forces them into federal witness protection but an attempt on Carter’s own life makes it clear that his team is now exposed. Carter enlists Rebecca Ingram (Miranda Otto), a brilliant and ambitious intelligence officer who has stepped down from her post as National Director of CTU. She’s supporting her husband, Senator John Donovan (Jimmy Smits), in his campaign for President of the United States. The rest of the FOX cast includes Teddy Sears, Dan Bucatinsky, Anna Diop, Ashley Thomas, Charlie Hofheimer, Coral Pena, and Sheila Vand.
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.
4/18 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page or view it here.
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.

I loved this show!!! I never saw 24 but I’m a fan of Eric carter and I think he did an excellent job! I loved all the characters on the show. I was just waiting for it to come bk on and now to see it’s cancelled I’m devastated. I can’t believe it. This show was my number one!!! Fox made a huge mistake with this one! I hope another cable network can get the show and bring it back. I’m so upset.
24 Legacy was awful. Horrible acting terrible writing and was completely a flop. There were so many mistakes in the series that were so obvious. It was a not a good representation of the true 24 series.
No comparison with Jack Bauer .
Get rid of it.
I love it don’t take it off
I think the show is great don’t take it off. Give it another shot, I bet the ratings will come up.
Please bring a season 2!!! I absolutely loved this season!
the best series ever. I love it, can you please bring it back
They have canceled all the best shows!! Some of the garbage the r replacing them with is a joke. Who r idiots that decide what gets canceled? Why watch anything new cause if it’s any good these dumbasses will cancel it!?
Why???????
We loved it. Bring it back
Loved 24 up to this one, which is like watching paint dry.
Sad tired repetitive and cliche. Predictable and tedious. Characters never really come to life. As for Eric Carter he is too young and not a believable character. Oh and the acting feels like he is acting. To realise how bad this series is please watch the older series of 24 with the exception of a couple. Let the series go, everything has a lifespan, this series needs to be taken off life support
Please renew 24 Legacy! Great show, thought I wouldn’t like it without Kiether Sutherland, but I loved it & can’t wait to see next episode!
I have never watched 24 and I love this series! Please do not cancel 24 Legacy !
I was huge Jack Bauer fan and found “24 Legacy” to be spectacular! They have to bring this back. Loved the way Tony Olmeida was weaved back in. This show could have a long run ahead of it!
I agree Anthony, but just as with the original 24, this is a very cerebral show even amidst all the action. Keifer is on the production end of this one plus he is amazing in ‘Designator Survivor’ on ABC. I hope FOX will give this show a second season : )
