What’s This TV Show About?

Airing on the TNT cable channel, the Claws TV show stars Niecy Nash, Carrie Preston, Judy Reyes, Karrueche Tran, Jenn Lyon, Kevin Rankin, and Jason Antoon, with Harold Perrineau and Dean Norris. The story centers on the diverse and dangerous staff of the Nail Artisan of Manatee County salon in South Florida. Desna Simms (Nash), along with her crew of manicurists, rises to power in the crime world to claim her share of cash and respect. It’s the story of hardworking women trying to get by in this economy, set against the surreal, bright, gritty landscape of Florida and the luscious, absurd, and extreme excesses of the crime world.
 

Season Four Ratings

The fourth season of Claws averaged a 0.11 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 437,000 viewers. Compared to season three, that’s down by 60% in the demo and down by 46% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM). While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled. Find out how Claws stacks up against other TNT TV shows.
