Hayley Atwell’s last ABC series, Marvel’s Agent Carter, lasted two seasons before being cancelled. How will Conviction do in the ratings? Will it be renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
A legal drama series, Conviction follows what happens when attorney Hayes Morrison (Hayley Atwell), the daughter of a former President, gets “blackmailed” into joining the Conviction Integrity Unit. It’s a NYC department that re-examines cases when there is suspicion of wrongful conviction. The rest of the cast includes Eddie Cahill, Shawn Ashmore, Merrin Dungey, Emily Kinney, Manny Montana, and Daniel Franzese.

Great show, great characters want to see more episodes or bring it back for season two.. maybe as a summer show
Riveting show! Chemistry between Hayes and Connor is electrifying. The cliff hanger of Sam getting fired by Hayes’ kissing him will keep fans on edge until the next episode!!! Please keep it going, thanks very much!
This is my FAVORITE show! My boyfriend and I watch it every week! Lead actress is amazing and stories are great. It’s the best replacement I’ve seen to my original CSI Las Vegas series and cast (with Grissom). Please don’t cancel!!!! PS we are 29 and 33…that’s the demographic you’re targeting right?? 😉

Great show and please don’t cancel
Conviction presents an interesting take on our legal system. Like the variety of characters and how they form a team synergy. My vote is to renew!!
I really like the show and I think it should not be cancelled.
We think Conviction is an outstanding TV series! Please reconsider the decision to cancel. All the characters are quality actors and add realism to legal situations.
Conviction is a good show. I liked it from the very beginning. Renew!!! Hayley Atwell makes the show believable.
