What’s This TV Show About?
A game show airing on the ABC television network, Child Support was created by Ricky Gervais. Fred Savage hosts the series, in which adult players have to answer ten questions correctly, in order to win the top prize of $200,000. When the grownups give the wrong answer, that’s when five cute and funny kids ride to the rescue. Gervais has asked the children the same thing. If they are able to supply the correct response, their support saves the adults.
Season One Ratings
The first season of Child Support averaged a 0.72 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 3.74 million viewers. Find out how Child Support stacks up against other ABC TV shows.

Telly’s Take
Will ABC cancel or renew Child Support for season two? The ratings have been quite low and, in my estimation, too low for even a Friday night timeslot. I’ll update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on Child Support cancellation or renewal news.
