Telly’s Take

Wondering if 60 Minutes will be cancelled or renewed for season 53 probably isn’t the best use of my time. This venerable CBS TV series remains a Sunday night staple and I’m sure it will be renewed. Still, networks use the ratings beyond cancellation and renewal decisions. They also depend on them to help determine when a show could use a tweak here or there. For now, I’ll keep an eye on the Nielsen ratings and update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free updates on any 60 Minutes cancellation and renewal news.
