NBC has had mixed luck with their ratings this season. They’ve had some successes and some failures. How does the Believe TV series measure up? Will it be cancelled or renewed for season two?
Believe revolves around a young girl with special abilities and the adults who are trying to protect her from evl forces. The cast includes Johnny Sequoyah, Jake McLaughlin, Delroy Lindo, Kyle MacLachlan, Jamie Chung, and Arian Moayed.
The show got off to a positive start on Monday, March 10th — likely thanks to having The Voice as a lead-in. The premiere drew a 2.7 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 10.56 million total viewers. It was a distant second in its timeslot, behind ABC’s The Bachelor: After the Final Rose.
The second episode, which aired in Believe’s regular Sunday night timeslot, saw the ratings drop 45% in the demo and 22% in viewership. Last week’s installment fell another 18% in the demo and 22% in viewers.
To drop to a 1.2 rating in the demo after just three episodes is a very bad sign for Believe’s future. It’s possible that the numbers could turn around and start to rise but it’s more likely that they’ll keep falling. The network needs new successful programming for their schedule and it seems clear that this isn’t it.
But, what do you think? Do you like the Believe TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Please do not cancel it.. I do not know what I will do without this show! It’s been a long time since I watch anything on NBC, if they cancel the show I will never see anything on that channel ever!
Please keep it! No one watches network t.v. anymore BUT we are watching it online! Keep this show–it is really good.
Loving Believe, please keep
Keep the show. So many good shows are cancelled in mid stream – there will come a time when no one will watch new shows. Why bother devoting precious time and getting hooked on a show – when it could be cancelled at the snap of your finger.
The USA cable network is a subsidiary of NBC, isn’t it? Move “Believe” over there if need be. Another option is to move it back to 8 p.m. on Sunday’s and take off that poorly performing Home Builders show. It’s more of a family hour anyway and a certainly less competitive time slot.
Everyone write to n b c ..!!! . Keep believe
Good luck there. These showrunners don’t really care about your letters. A few years ago people started a petition drive for “Jericho.” It had signatures in the hundreds of thousands and it was only enough to keep it alive for half a season longer. Probably the only show in history that ever had a successful letter and petition campaign was “Cagney And Lacey.” Take it from me, these people at the networks don’t think in logical terms, the way you and I think.
To “Jim” I agree with you, I do at least send something out there as a “protest.” But in the end, it’s all about the money and if they think they can dump one show, even if it is popular, but make more $$$ off another one…Your show is doomed…
Jericho was a excellent show…As you say, the networks don’t care… 🙁
Love this show. Praying it gets renewed.
Keep this show “Believe” on the air NBC! You finally have a really excellent drama and main characters that are likeable if not loveable and ones that you really root for. Bad guys great, too. You’re making plenty on “The Voice” so give this show a chance to grow!!! No dropping it like “Ironside”. Really, I mean…do you guys remember “MASH”? Not your network’s show but an example of letting something grow. The on screen chemistry of the “Dad” with “Bo” is phenomenal. Look at their appearance on “The Today Show” to see what they have. Please give it a… Read more »

I like the show “Believe”. I watch it faithfully every Sunday night. I like the story line and acting. The little girl “Bo” is a very good little actress. I like where the show is going. I feel that it would be a shame to see this show cancelled; especially after I have invested every Sunday night to this show. I want Bo to know her father and to see where the show leads. It has a very interesting story line and it is very “believeable” too. I really do “believe” that the government does do lots of things behind… Read more »
