Hallmark Channel doesn’t produce many original drama series but that doesn’t mean that those few shows are safe from being cancelled. The channel has now introduced Chesapeake Shores, a small-town drama that may remind some viewers of the Cedar Cove TV series (which was cancelled last fall, after three seasons). Will this new series succeed? Will Chesapeake Shores be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
A multi-generational family drama, Chesapeake Shores follows a high-powered career woman, divorcee and mother of twin daughters. She makes a trip from New York City to her hometown and comes face to face with her past. It may finally be time for her to mend her fences with her family and put the past to rest. At the same time, she may get a chance to revive her long-lost true love. The cast includes Meghan Ory, Jesse Metcalfe, Treat Williams, Diane Ladd, Laci J. Mailey, Emilie Ullerup, and Barbara Niven.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

What do you think? Do you like the Chesapeake Shores TV show on Hallmark? Do you think that the series should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I am really enjoying this series, it intertwines all the members of this family, their friend and romantic interests. Please RENEW!
I have read most of Sheryl Woods books. Even though some of the events have changed in the series I am still really enjoying the show. I hope they renew it.
I really have grown fond of this show and look forward to each new episode. The cast is great and reminds me of my own family of 6 brothers And sisters and how we grew up. I also enjoy the music played by Jesse Metcalf! Please don’t cancel this series.
It’s a good show, namely because of Treat Williams and Diane Ladd….they’re great in their roles. It’s not nearly as good as Cedar Cove which I sure wish Hallmark would bring back!!
It’s okay though and it’s nice to have a family show on TV for a change.
Best show I’ve seen in a long time! Family oriented, and just an overall great show!!! We definitely need more seasons
What another great show by Hallmark. When Call the Heart is number one but Chesapeake Shores is a close second. The program is great and we will need a season two
Best show on tv not sexual, family oriented.
Don’t cancel
Chesapeake Shores-good show but I live in Eastern Shore of MD. Lose the mountains in the background! We don’t have any!’
I love Chesapeake Shores…can’t wait for each new episode! Please renew
I have watched all episodes so far of Chesapeake Shores and I like the series but at this point it is not showing me much. The family seems to have too many issues and at this point, I don’t see anything really interesting that will hold my interest. I do like the cast, the plot seems faded and dull but it depends on future episodes as to whether or not I will continue watching this series. I have been spoiled by When Calls the Heart series and its cast and no other movie, series, will ever be as good as… Read more »
Every family has issues and they are very relatable.
After the pilot I really wasnt sure whether I would like it, but it has already grown on me!
I am so reluctant to become involved in Hallmark series because the network is very unpredictable in renewing series and sometimes more than a year goes by between seasons, i.e. “When Calls the Heart”. I really liked Cedar Cove and they canceled it leaving many loose ends. A finale would have been nice. Hallmark needs to develop some method for analyzing their shows that isn’t completely self-serving and that considers the people who engage their time and interest in shows. I consider any Hallmark original series to be a high risk when I’m deciding where to invest my TV time.
I totally agree with Bes J. Coat. I liked Cedar Cove and they just blew it off the air. Haven’t watched the new Chesapeake Shores and probably won’t.
we have watched every episode!!
Caught my first episode tonight and loved it Would like to watch the episodes I missed
Love this show – binged 3 episodes in one setting….can’t wait for next one!
