NBC has had success launching new shows after The Voice. Unfortunately, the ratings have often tanked once the show didn’t have that strong lead-in (Revolution, for example). Will Believe be a hit or will it be cancelled after one season? Stay tuned to find out.
Believe revolves around a young girl who has special abilities and the adults who are trying to protect her. The cast includes Johnny Sequoyah, Jake McLaughlin, Delroy Lindo, Kyle MacLachlan, Jamie Chung, and Arian Moayed.
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.
5/9 update: Believe has been cancelled by NBC after one season.
6/16 update: You can see the latest night’s ratings in context here.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page. You can also see them here.
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 Believe TV series? Would you like to see it cancelled or renewed for second season?
NBC is cancelling a lot of good, refreshing, interesting shows. Believe, Revolution and Sean Saves The World! WHAT’S UP N B C !!! A REALITY CHECK IS REQUIRED! Besides The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon nothing for me to watch on NBC !
I am soooo disappointed that BELIEVE is being cancelled! Love the show! They keep the stupidest, annoying and boring shows on and not even give a GOOD show a better chance. Bring it back! Maybe another station should pick it up or a different time slot. The characters have a Good chemistry , THE CHARACTERS THEMSELVES ARE GOOD and likeable. You care about them. It sends a good message. It’s interesting. Seriously.
My friends and I gathered on Sunday nights to watch ” Believe”and then “Crisis”. The
highlight of the week. On Monday night we watch The Blacklist. The three best shows on TV. That’s it for the week. What shocks me is that somehow you didn’t know that you had a winner! If that is the case, maybe another channel will pick it up. You don’t deserve it. I have all 7 seasons of “24” and had hoped I would have 7 seasons of “Believe”. Sooo disappointed. I think the Kardashians are available.
I really liked this show. Bo is just adorable and the story line was good. It is one of the few shows that doesn’t have to have blood all over it to make it a good show.
I hope they change their minds and give it another shot. We must all write to them to tell them WE LIKE IT.
🙁 i loved this show i loved their chemistry im really upset it got canecelled why do they always cancel the good shows and keep the crap ones 🙁
oh my god are you serious, how could you cancel Believe , that’s one of the best shows I’ve seen in years! it was wonderful and intereing I’m shocked!! if Believe if not renewed I will never watch NBC again

Maybe we can still save it. The last 4 eps are supposed to air on May 25th…maybe, just maybe, it will be saved. watch it live the night each ep airs…it helps.
Why oh why could you cancel Believe? This a a new and unique show. I am so tired of all the copycat shows. I can’t stand reality TV. I am so tired of getting interested in shows to have them cancelled!! Firefly—gone…..Almost Human—gone…..Breaking In—gone….Believe—gone…..I mean really who makes these choices? OK, so maybe the show didn’t get the BEST ratings on a Sunday night….why not test it on another night? For me NBC is the worst at doing this, but I have issues with all networks.
Eric, you know why they’re cancelling this show: Money. Sponsors pay lots of money to advertise their products and services during commercial breaks. If these offerings don’t generate enough interest among ‘demographics’, and people stop watching, critics start writing acid-tongued reviews and those aforementioned sponsors and the show’s producers don’t see profits, THEY cancel the program. Personally, I don’t think many shows these days are worth the money. ‘Tell you what, ask the folks at MeTV how they’re doing with their demographics. I watch that network frequently, along with Antenna TV. Do you know why? Because most of the shows… Read more »
I hear you! I was just thinking that this is similar to what happened with Firefly years ago…and then they ended up making a movie that pretty much ruined the show for me…
OMG, i hate watching new shows because everytime i get into one, IT GETS BLOODY CANCELLED!. Firefly, Jericho, Almost human. What are you guys thinking? But believe back on. i am watching it in the uk. have you taken uk ratings into account? becasue i have alot of friends over here watching it too that are guttered that its now cancelled before we even see the end of season one! stop making copy crime shows like elementary that copies BBC Sherlock and invest in the original ideas like Believe! I think i am just going to quit watching all fox… Read more »
I am so angry that NBC would cancel this show. It is one of the FEW uplifting and positive shows that is on the air! It was cancelled without giving it a shot. Try another night! It was playing opposite another very popular paranormal show, Resurrection (with a creepy boy) and I think many people who watch that show would have been interested in this one. I know that my husband and I would watch one or the other “on demand.” I am so angry that you would cancel this popular show without giving it a shot. There are enough… Read more »
This is SO upsetting! Believe is the one show that I sit down to watch and truly enjoy. It’s so unique and fresh without being presumptuous or fake. The more NBC and other networks whittle their shows to trash like reality tv and intellectually numbing humor, the closer we are to becoming a state of total “Idiocracy”
NBC…AGAIN!! WHY DDO YOU KILL OFF YET *ANOTHER* PROMISING SHOW? SUCH A FAB SHOW! People are REALLY ARE GUN SHY TO “INVEST * themselves into shows on NBC!…*I REALLY BELIEVED IN BELIEVE !!!*
My husband and I enjoy watching believe.
This is the only show I watch anymore Please bring it back. At least finish the story line..
PLEASE SAVE BELIEVE I cannot stand all the other shows BUTthis is the BEST.Give it a CHANCE
I agree best show ever.
Why do they can one of the best, and different shows that come out recently? What do we need to do to get it back? It’s the only show I care about watching.
