Are you a fan of American Crime? Season three of the TV series just premiered on ABC, but what about another the future? Should the network renew the show for a fourth season?
From John Ridley, the anthology drama explores a new crime in a new setting each season. The current season follows Luis Salazar (Benito Martinez), a father who travels illegally from Mexico to the United States in search of his son. The cast also includes Felicity Huffman, Regina King, Connor Jessup, and Richard Cabral.
The ratings for American Crime have never been high, and it looks like season three will be the lowest-rated one yet. So far, the season is averaging a 0.45 rating in the 18-49 demo and only 2.29 million viewers, making it ABC‘s lowest-rated series for the 2016-2017 season.
However, the show has received considerable critical acclaim. The first two seasons have earned American Crime a total of 14 Emmy nominations, including two wins for star Regina King.
What do you think? Should ABC renew American Crime for a fourth season or, should the series finally be cancelled?
Great show.
I think this is one of the best series ever shown on regular television. The acting is superb as is all the story lines. Please don’t cancel another wonderful show.
I love this show. I only stream it though, because I can’t watch when it airs. is streaming reflected in the ratings?
Love this season! It is dealing with very real issues. Uncomfortable to watch but very eye opening.
This is fantastic TV! It takes us to uncomfortable parts of our society and introduces us to situations that are going on that we really don’t hear much of accept a news clip and shows us fellow Americans caught up in situations that highlight their humanity..though, we might at a glance not see/care about them. It’s made me care for people on the fringe. I don’t believe I could be as strong as them in the face of such adversity and I believe I’m a strong person. Difficult but necessary.. riveting series. Please keep these stories going. Not everything can… Read more »
Yes, it should be renewed. Very thought provoking.
Renew! After the first season, I thought season 2 would be a continuation, but I’m glad they deal with different things happening in the world. Keep it!
Actually… yes! This PARTICULAR season is doing incredibly well… the story line is awesome this time around. The writers have really torn it up this time around, good job guys and keep following this same model! I think that this as well as the first season were two of the best so far. Last year’s didn’t make any kind of sense… but, you’re on the right track now!
Excellent show…..absolutely continue!
It is a great show that tells the stories that would otherwise never get told in Trump’s alternate version of reality.
Right. How about all the stories that weren’t told in Obama Bin Laden’s alternate version of reality? How about that the ratings are ATROCIOUS this season? That people AREN’T WATCHING? I guess ratings don’t matter to you. They matter to me. If ABC isn’t having an embarrassing enough season with failing shows, this debacle just adds fuel to the fire.
Cancel it, boring as hell, should never got passed after 1 episode.
Cancel American Crime, it is but another way for Hollywood to shove their cultural constructs on us yet again. The current season wraps all those all up in one box, illegal immigration, drug addiction (yet again), hate crime crap (which is far below the actual non-hate crime stats) (social construct yet again), the white man keeping the illegal down with farm work, and more etc. I hate it because the less than 1% of the population is telling the majority how we should live and think. It should be the other way around.
Are you being FORCED to watch American Crime? No, you’re not. As for your second thought, I don’t think anyone should be telling anyone else how to “live and think.” Your comment also seems to advocate censorship if a show is on the air that you don’t agree with. Sad.
Lighten up everyone – its a bleepin’ TV show…
