A new CBS series, Clarice is based on the character from The Silence of the Lambs. The last series based on that book/movie, Hannibal, has a devout following but lasted just three low-rated seasons. Will Clarice do as well or better? Will it be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
A psychological crime and horror series, the Clarice TV show stars Rebecca Breeds, Michael Cudlitz, Lucca de Oliveira, Kal Penn, Nick Sandow, Devyn Tyler, and Marnee Carpenter. The series is a deep dive into the untold personal story of FBI Agent Clarice Starling (Breeds) as she returns to the field in 1993, one year after the hunt for serial killer Buffalo Bill (Simon Northwood). Brilliant and vulnerable, Clarice’s bravery gives her an inner light that draws monsters and madmen to her. However, her complex psychological makeup — which comes from a challenging childhood — empowers her to begin to find her voice while working in a man’s world. It also helps her begin to escape the family secrets that have haunted her throughout her life.

Not interested in Clarice. Too much horror on t.v.
I’m really enjoying it! Just binge watched four episodes …. clever and entertaining… a nice break from reality tv. I hope it is renewed
It is too dark. Cancel this damn show
Could have been a good show. Seriously crippled by repetitious stereotypes.
I really love clarice. I really hope they renew for a second season.
I really wanted to like this show, but it is so unrealistic that it can’t be enjoyed.
Clarice is one of the best shows on TV! I can’t believe they put it in hiatus already! I guess we can just watch this BS reality crap all the time I guess is what we’re supposed to do! not!
I really really hope it’s renewed. I love Ardelia and Clarice’s relationship
I love Clarice. One of the best shows on tv. I thought it was going to suck but it is awesome.
I really do love this show. I will be so sad if it does not do well. It is a little uneven, but some of the acting is the best imaginable and it tries in ways few shows do. It deserves to succeed big.
Love the show
This show should be renewed as it is a joy to watch.
I actually really enjoy the show. It’s sad that people don’t seem to like it based on the lack of sex or gore. I truly hope that you will continue it for a second season
There are 3 people in this house that really enjoy watching Clarice and we are all over the rediculous demographic age.
I enjoyed the original book many years ago, and most associated movies and TV shows since. I enjoy Clarice, but unfortunately early ratings are suggesting I don’t get too attached.
RENEW for season 2! Love the show
Yeah it is performing poorly. It is sitting around at Swat level ratings and that show took four years to achieve that.
Swat is better its not so dark and storylines are much better
