Last year, the freshman installment of Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Tim Minear’s 9-1-1 TV show was a bonafide hit for FOX. It drew a larger total audience than all of the television network’s other scripted offerings, and came in second in the demo, right behind Empire. Now that 9-1-1 is back for a second season, can it match or even improve upon its performance? Will 9-1-1 be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
A FOX procedural, 9-1-1 stars Angela Bassett, Peter Krause, Jennifer Love-Hewitt, Oliver Stark, Aisha Hinds, Kenneth Choi, Rockmond Dunbar, Ryan Guzman, Corinne Massiah, and Marcanthonee Reis. The scripted drama, inspired by real-life experiences, centers on the police officers, firefighters, and paramedics who risk their lives to save others. No matter how frightening, dangerous, and shocking a situation may be, these first responders rush toward crises from which others flee.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly in 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.
5/14 update: You can see the latest night’s ratings in context.

For comparisons: The first season of 9-1-1 on FOX averaged a 1.65 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 6.32 million total viewers (live + same day ratings).
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 9-1-1 TV series? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a third season on FOX?
3/25/19 update: FOX has renewed the 9-1-1 TV show for a third season.
For a show that boast realism it really doesn’t get it. Just yet another over dramatic shortcoming. Trying to make this kind of work “realistic” on a TV show is just laughable. These people are actors. They don’t have a grip on how everything in these situations works, but that’s ok, nobody expects them to. Just don’t pretend like it’s anything like the real world.
Please do not cancel 911!! Take one of the other stupid shows off. Like Bob’s Burgers or God Friended me!!
Best real life show! Please DO NOT CANCEL!
BRING IT BACK!!!
9-1-1 is by far the best show out there not only as a drama series but it also shows the hard work it takes to understand the real life experiences

Jennifer Love Hewitt, really? She couldn’t act before and she can’t act now. Who does she know in order to get a starring spot on another series? Otherwise, I love the show.
