60 Minutes: CBS Renews Venerable News Magazine for Season 51

60 Minutes TV show on CBS: season 51 renewal (canceled or renewed?)

(CBS News)

Like clockwork, CBS has renewed its long-lived 60 Minutes TV show news magazine for a 51st season. The show remains a top non-scripted ratings performer for the Tiffany Network and was never in any danger of cancellation.

A groundbreaking program and quite the feather in CBS‘ cap, 60 Minutes is the standard by which other news documentary series are judged. Hosts and correspondents include: Steve Kroft, Lesley Stahl, Scott Pelley, Lara Logan, Bill Whitaker, Anderson Cooper, Charlie Rose, Norah O’Donnell, Sharyn Alfonsi, and Oprah Winfrey, who joined during the 50th year.  

60 Minutes: A Look at the Ratings

The 50th season of 60 Minutes is averaging a 1.51 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 11.10 million viewers. Compared to season 49, that’s down by 3% and 1%, respectively. Compared to the other unscripted CBS TV shows we track, it averaged the largest total audience and was second only to Survivor in the demo.
