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.
They need to get away from live ratings. This show probably has a lot more viewers, but like me they probably don’t all have cable. Rest assured though the day after it airs my wife and I sit down to watch the new episodes. I think that should be looked at.
Please renew…great cast!!!! There are shows that should never be renewed but this is NOT one of them.
The show needs to be on. Aside from an amazing and very talented cast, it tackles every issue. I don’t have time for tv, yet I MAKE time for this show. Keep it on.
Please keep Conviction on. It is one of my favorite new shows!!! I can’t believe it’s not doing well in the ratings. 9:00 would be a better timeslot. Great acting, fast paced, love Atwell and all the actors. Please give it a chance. I think it’s outstanding!!!!

This show is different from the rest. I quite enjoy it. Please do not cancel it.
Please renew the show :'(
I think that this is an excellent show. The stories make you think about how the plot will turn out.
Please, please, please renew!! Excellent show.
The show has potential but rather then making a show with good material it focus on race/stereotypes…etc. It’s not going to last long…way to liberal. Person of color gets put in prison they find out a white person did it. Sort of funny. I’m sure other people that have 2 brain cells can seen the irony is the story lines
Please don’t cancel. Love this show!!!
I have really enjoyed this show and would love it to somehow continue. I love Haley Atwell’s character Haley is excellent at conveying a strong woman, an “alpha” female while also being so human with all its vulnerabilities. Haley plays both sides of this character beautifully. If not Conviction, hopefully she’ll pop up somewhere else soon.
I really like this series. I’m hoping for another season. What can I do to make that happen
I have really enjoyed the series. Haley Atwell did such a good job as agent Carter, I was so hoping this would be a success. It’s a gutsy but complicated story line. It seems that series that require viewers to pay attention are always the ones first to be cut. These are the ones I watch. I, too, record it and watch later. Do the networks pay attention to those of us who watch later? It would be a shame to end the series now. By the way, why was this shown on New year’s Day. That’s not a good… Read more »
I hope this show is renewed .Keep it. Why do all good shows get cancel. Keep this one
