Despite having The Vampire Diaries as a lead-in, the ratings for The CW‘s Beauty and the Beast declined quite a bit last season. How will the show do this year? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a third season? Stay tuned to find out.
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, Brian White, Max Brown, and Nina Lisandrello.

i know ratings matter for a show to continue. Merlin series ratings were not only centered on UK citizens but America, Africa, Asia even France. here in Nigeria fans are crazy. CW tv have a heart and consider other countries ratings too.
give cat and vincent a chance for a third season. Nikita got a third so why can’t this? besides people are in love with the old story of beauty and the beast, c’mon there are many ways to make it more fun. cat should stop having distractive boyfriends in all the seasons same goes for vincent. Beauty and the beast deserves a third season CW tv.
cat and vincent need to get together!! it needs another season at least! i would love it to have many more seasons as it is fantastic!!
I am from the Uk and i absolutely love this show please don’t cancel it yet! I really want at least 3 seasons it’s the best show i’ve watched in years!!
