What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the FOX television network, APB follows billionaire engineer Gideon Reeves (Justin Kirk). The Chicago Police Department is spiraling out of control thanks to high crime, officer-involved shootings, cover-ups, corruption, and under-funding. After witnessing his best friend’s murder, Reeves resolves to change all that. He puts up millions of dollars of his own money to take charge of the troubled 13th District and reboots it as a technically innovative police force. Teaming with street-smart Detective Theresa Murphy (Natalie Martinez) and tech wiz Ada Hamilton (Caitlin Stasey), Reeves embarks on a mission to create a crime-fighting force for the 21st century. Ernie Hudson, Taylor Handley, Tamberla Perry, and Nestor Serrano also star.
Season One Ratings
The first season of APB averaged a 0.78 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 3.43 million viewers. Find out how this new series stacks up against the other FOX TV shows.
On May 11, 2017, APB was cancelled so there won’t be a second season. Could it be revived somehow? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
The APB TV show had a solid premiere on FOX but saw a huge drop in week two and dropped further in the weeks that have followed. I suspect that, though FOX really wants to establish new dramas, this one isn’t one of them and APB will be cancelled.
5/11 update: FOX has cancelled the APB TV show after one season. Details here.

What do you think? Did you hope that the APB TV show would be renewed for a second season? Are you upset that FOX has cancelled this series, instead?
Please renew it! The technology aspect pushes the boundaries of today’s cop shows!
I hope this show gets renewed, we need smart action shows, instead of the same run of the mill cop shows. It has excitement and entertainment.
i love watching APB with my family. please keep it
APB is excellent. It pushes the boundaries of technology and it’s just fun to watch. Please renew it for another season.
Great show. Deserves another season!
I LOVE YOU THIS SHOW. I’M ADDICTED TO IT. PLEASE KEEP IT ON THE AIR.
I really look forward to this show. Please keep it on.
Please keep this show. It has been a long time since I have seen something that is both serious and fun. I have been watching it either on Monday if I am home or on my computer because I bought the season through itunes. It is one I would certainly buy year after year if the writing stays fresh.
Please keep APB! It’s an awesome show and I really like it. I get really excited when Monday night comes around.
I find the female lead contrived and annoying.
The show is great…it shows that someone with money and influence can help with the matter of safety of citizens and law enforcement….good for moral and hope for the future…
This show has great potential and should be given a chance to succeed but I fear it might encourage an already dangerous direction toward privatization of Law enforcement and vicariously Law Making. That is Very Dangerous…even more than corrupt LE. Which can be brought down with exposure.
I agree, it’s nonsense they need shows of the calibre of Criminal minds, NCIS, Bates Motel etc.
right… it’s different and enjoyable
Omg, this show is awesome. I love it.
My fiance and I think this show is great.
Please renew. Do not cancel, I’ll be so sad.
Renew,renew,renew
Good show, we enjoy watching it. RENEW!
My husband and I LOVE THIS SHOW! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RENEW IT!!!
