The ratings for season three of Bates Motel were way down but a fourth season renewal is coming “soon”, according to executive producer Kerry Ehrin.
When asked when the A&E series would be renewed, Ehrin responded, “In my head it was announced 2 months ago. I am told will be soon.” She also noted that series star Freddie Highmore would be writing a fourth season episode.
The third season concluded om May 11th. The 10 episodes averaged a 0.743 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.8 million viewers. Season-to-season, that’s down by about 22%.
What do you think? Do you still like the Bates Motel series? Should it be renewed or canceleld?
I lover this show! But to long of a break between seasons and only 10 episodes is not enough for one season. Can’t wait for season 4 ,but hope we don’t have to wait a year to see it.
Best show on tv keep it going please
This is the best show I have followed in many years. The cast are all amazing…The only reason this last seasons viewings were down is because there was such a time lag between Season 2 and 3. Keep the episodes coming in a timely manner, and the ratings will definitely increase. Please do not cancel this show!!!!!!!
please renew bates motel
Renewed
Renew please! Excellent TV series.
Please Renew! Freddy Highmore, you ROCK as Norman Bates! You are ALL great actors!
I think it should be renewed. It is a great show. Maybe they should consider changing the time slot. Also better marketing. I watch it every season and had to watch it on Amazon this season bc I didn’t realize it was on and didn’t see any commercials about it. Needs to stand out more!
This the best series what is wrong with people
Renew it! Love this show!!
I just finished watching season one and two on Netflix and I can’t wait to watch season three. A friend referred the show to me and I can’t get enough. It is by far the best show on TV right now. I really hope the show is renewed.
In my opinion, hands down the best show on tv. Like Tatyana J, I didn’t start watching til this season, saw episodes 5 and 6 back to back then went back and started watching the previous seasons. Vera Farmiga is outstanding, I don’t think they could have found a better actress to play Norma. I’m 60 , if that means anything.
Vera Farmiga is beautiful and fabulous playing the role of Norma.
The show should be renewed. Ratings are down because season 3 took too long to air (I know why it happened but still). If things don’t come back to TV fast, people forget, look for a different show and move on. The saying out of sight, out of mind is prevalent in this case. I love the show and want to see more of it. Also, 10 episodes in one season is just so short.
Really enjoy this show and hope it continues for a couple more seasons- great acting by all the cast and loving how he characters are dvolping
I wonder if the show will renew for both 4 & 5 and announce 5 as the final season? With A&E’s spotty track record, it would make sense to nail them down or move the show now to either Netflix, the CW, or elsewhere. Actually, this would play really well on the CW if that were an option since Warners owns the show.
