Fans of Beauty and the Beast don’t have to worry about their show being cancelled this time around. Despite a big drop in the ratings, The CW renewed the series for both a third and a fourth season. Will the network execs regret the decision if the numbers fall even lower? Could they change their minds and cancel it anyway? Stay tuned.
On Beauty and the Beast, a beautiful detective (Kristin Kreuk), navigates her evolving relationship with a handsome doctor (Jay Ryan) who becomes a terrifying beast. Others in the cast are Austin Basis, Nina Lisandrello, and Nicole Gale Anderson.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly 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.
Final season averages: 0.23 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 880,000 total viewers.

For comparisons: The second season of Beauty and the Beast averaged a 0.29 rating with 800,000 viewers.
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 Beauty and the Beast TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a fifth season?
I don’t know if they should cancel it or not, but it is not the best show I’ve ever seen, definetely. I think the backround actors do it even better than the main ones (sorry Kristin and Jay). And yeah, I agree with the comments about the scripts, they are poorly written. Don’t know about you, but I got a bit sick of listening to “we’re stronger together”, “don’t cross the primal line” and all the other cheesy stuff.
Does it mean it should be cancelled? Dunno. But as far as I’m concern, it needs a little bit of change.
Love this show. Keep it going. PLEEEEEEZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I love this show – it has so much to offer, and the cast is great! Please keep it going!
I love this show!…so glad it’s not cancelled!!
Beauty and the Beast has a great cast
as well I have watch the tv show last
year an I’m glad that the show came
back
The show has humor, action,drama, and romance. And always remember it is scyfy.The actors are great and Kristin has many facial expressions and so does Jay. If you are checking out watching the show, I am a die hard supporter and will watch til the end. Hope we have a Season 5!!!!
Kristin is a excellent actress, and the show is extremely fun to watch. I say a 3rd and 4th season are a lock, 5th season may be possible because of Kristin fans as well as the rest of the cast which are fantastic. As for the ratings, the show is doing fine, remember this show is on CW. It’s biggest show basically gets cable like ratings too. Kristin has a huge international fanbase which looks to have kept this show going almost half a decade!!!
I agree with you completely with your comments. Ratings are not the only factors when keeping a show. This is the number one show that I watch.
Rating do not always reflect the quality of a show. However in this case ratings are an accurate representation. Cancel.
This show has outlived it’s welcome. It’s become just awful to digest anymore. Watch the ratings….don’t know if they can pull the plug on filming S4 at this point or not. They should. CW seems to need to destroy a show beyond anyone wanting to watch it before they take it off the air. I only hope they don’t destroy “The Flash” because I really enjoy it!
If you look at the million of viewers it took 0.88 that means 0.3 or 0.2 It’s about the raitings and if mark pedowitz doesn’t see anyone watching it on tv then he will cancel it
This season is getting bad raitings
Love this show. Kristen is great to watch!! Always watched this show.
Keep it going love the series have to buy dvd miss show times
I love the show I’m a hard core fan!!!! Yes keep the show going
GO WARRIORS!!
I didn’t even know this show was still on. I watched the first season and it was just OK. Mainly I was just trying to support “Lana” Kristin Kreuk, but seriously this show is crap. The lead actor can’t act and the story line is a plodding flop. I’d rather watch “The Originals” than this now, and that show is plagued by much of the same stuff.
I finally canceled my season pass for Beauty and the Beast as of this last episode. Sorry Kristin, looks like it’s time we part ways.
I disagree with you. There’s a lot to critize about this show but not the lead actor’s acting skills. He is versatile and is great in both drama and comedy scene. Kristin, on the other hand, is very beautiful, a real beauty, but she always has the same facial expressions.
In all fairness, scripts are so poorly written, can’t fairly use as a barometer to measure anyone’s acting skills. Just my opinion. I stopped watching.
Sorry I disagree it’s a great show and hope it comes back for a fifth season. Love this show
