Back in the 1980s, ABC and CBS had hit shows that revolved around the oil business — Dynasty and Dallas — and each ran for many seasons. Now, the alphabet network is hoping to strike it rich with a new show called Blood & Oil. Will this series be a hit or a flop? Cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
On Blood & Oil, young couple Billy (Chace Crawford) and Cody LeFever (Rebecca Rittenhouse) move to Williston, North Dakota to seek their fortune. Billy’s drive attracts the attention of oil barron Hap Briggs (Don Johnson) and Hap takes him under his wing, much to the dismay of Hap’s son Wick (Scott Michael Foster). The rest of the cast includes Amber Valletta, Adan Canto, India de Beaufort, Miranda Rae Mayo, and Delroy Lindo.
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 — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
10/25 update: Cancelled already? Would you save this series?
10/23 update: ABC has cut this drama’s first season order to 10 episodes.
12/14 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.

I miss this show so much.
Please bring back Blood & Oil! Miss these actors and this show!! Maybe try on a different night if ratings were not there? Cannot imagine why this show was not good on the ratings besides the night it was on!
Bring back Blood & Oil!!!! It was a really good series. Miss it.
I decided to google b&0 to find out what happened to the show. I was surprised to find out that the show was cancelled do to poor ratings. Perhaps the show was on the wrong night. I would like to see a season 2 air on a different night to see if the ratings go up. I enjoyed B&O just as much as Dallas. Please bring back the show.
Give us a second season please! This was one of my favorite shows
As fans of Blood & Oil let’s keep letting ABC know we want the show back.

ABC please start listening to the fans of Blood & Oil. We love the show and don’t want to see it cancelled. Many people have stopped watching ABC, CBS, and NBC because of cancelling so many of the shows we love to watch. We are tried of Reality Shows. Please rethink about cancelling B&O it’s a great show.
