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.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival.

What do you think? Do you like the Conviction TV series on ABC? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
5/12 update: ABC has officially cancelled Conviction after one season. Details here.
My wife and I watch this show on DVR every week and we think it should remain one of CBS continuing series this year.
When will those making decisions about cancelling a show take into account that in this day and age, we have online, app, and Hulu at our disposal. I watch this faithfully every week, but on Hulu and most likely on Saturdays. Sorry I can’t watch it live, 10 pm is too late to me. When you have a fb page about a tv show, be sure and read that page to see what fans are saying. Who the hell cares what the critics say. They really don’t know.
Ratings not bad show is great and interesting love the 5 day soryline stop the cancellation
I will watch even though it may be cancelled. Usually, I would just delete it from my PVR when hearing a threat of cancellation. But this show is too good to toss.
I literally binged watch all 8 episodes, it reminds me of the show Cold Case, SOO GOOD and different compared to Law & Order, NCIS, CIS, you name it. Please don’t cancel it, give it a chance.
Love this show! I really hope it is not cancelled.
