This evening marks the season finale of Almost Human on FOX. Will it also be the last episode? Should this sci-fi series be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Almost Human takes place in the future and follows the partnership of a distrustful cop (Karl Urban) and an android who’s capable of emotion (Michael Ealy). The cast also includes Minka Kelly, Mackenzie Crook, Michael Irby, and Lili Taylor.
The show debuted on a Sunday in mid-November and drew a 3.1 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 9.18 million total viewers. It was a very healthy start, thanks in part to the fact that it had an NFL game as a lead-in. The numbers dropped more than 26% for episode two on the following night.
Over the course of the season, Almost Human’s ratings have been on the decline and now seem to have settled around a 1.6 in the demo with about 5.5 million viewers. That’s a far cry from its premiere.
While the show’s chances for a renewal could certainly be better, they could be worse too. Overall, the FOX schedule is in pretty sorry shape so that could spell good news for Almost Human. They’ve had lousy luck with new shows and some older shows have lost a lot of steam so the execs may be hesitant to cancel this one.
The decision will likely come down to how confident they feel about the network’s new dramas but I suspect Almost Human will get a 13 episode renewal for next year.
But, what do you think? Do you like Almost Human on FOX? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
one of the best show on tv .let’s keep this one ok!
please please please keep this show running, it;s great
please do not cancell this series, I love it
My new favorite show. The relationship between the two male leads is unique. The writing is clever, the acting is engaging. I look forward to this show more than anything else. It’s bright and imaginative. More episodes please.
Don’t cancel the show. Good story ideas , great actors.
love this show! this show needs more promotion, maybe if this show was promoted on the sci-fi channel or channels where sci-fi shows do well. I bet with sooooo many channels out there, it is hard to know the show exists if not on a sci-fi channel. At the very least move it to a sci-fi channel. but if you like almost human check out my favorite show supernatural on the cw!
Keep this show. It is the best of all the new shows I have seen. The two male leads are great together. The new technology shown on the show is awesome. Don’t let us lose another super science fiction show.
Please do not cancel Almost Human. We enjoy this show so much. It’s not your run of the mill type show. The stories are different and interesting. PLEASE, PLEASE keep it running.
Keep it. If any of the Kardashian family appears on it, remove it immediately.
Please bring it back! My husband and I thoroughly enjoy the show. The banter between the two leads and the development of Rudy’s character is refreshing.
Almost Human needs to be renewed. My whole family watches this show. This was our #1 new show last season. Fox should try a different time slot if they don’t like the ratings. Why not put it in Fringe’s old time slot on Fridays.
I would like to see Almost Human renewed, I am an avid viewer
Each week I keep finding myself saying, “Almost Human doesn’t disappoint!” Love it! We have watched every episode so far and hope for it to be renewed!
I would like you to renew the show. It is a show I try to watch each week. So many shows are a bad imitation of previous shows and this one is not. Please bring it back!
This is one of the only shows that I watch on Fox. It is also the only show that my wife watches with me on a regular basis as she enjoys the relationship between the two leads. Please renew for another season!
Great show! Please don’t cancel!
