A couple years ago, NBC aired Crusoe, an adventure series based on the classic Robinson Crusoe novel and character. It was quickly cancelled. Now, the network is trying Crossbones, another adventure series about the same era. Will this one be a success and be renewed for a second season or, will it be cancelled as well? We’ll have to wait and see.
Crossbones revolves around the life of Edward Teach (John Malkovich), better known as Blackbeard the pirate, and his desire to aquire a valuable invention called the longitude chronometer. Others in the cast are Yasmine Al Massri, Richard Coyle, Claire Foy, David Hoflin, Tracy Ifeachor, and Chris Perfetti.
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. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
Final season averages: 0.6 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.68 million total viewers.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page. You can also see them here.
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Crossbones TV show? Would you like to see it cancelled or renewed for second season?
“Lay a hand on me and find out how fast you become unidextrous.” The dialogue and plot are total ****, maybe another team will actually do justice to the setting.
Please do not cancel Crossbones! It is a great show.

please do not cancell crossbones it is a great show!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a fantastic show! We watch each episode over and over on Hulu, and that speaks volumes!!!! The show is so different from anything else and deserves another season. My wife is so sad, we looked forward to every episode. There are several open ends that we were looking forward to watching. Listen to the fans!!
Please, do not cancel the show!! I am so heartbroken. From, a devoted fan!!
Love the show, DO NOT CANCEL
DONT CANCEL CROSSBONES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s so intelligent and wonderfully written!
This show is exquisitely written, beautiful acted and has a fantastic wardrobe/scenery. I watched the first season on Hulu but from what I can tell NBC made a huge mistake by airing this show on it’s original time slot. Hannibal is a crap show and it would have done better after Grimm. Why put so much fantastic effort into a show and give it a **** time slot? The show may have started a bit slow in the first episode but I adore it. It’s very dissapointing to see such an intelligent show not receive a fair run. John Malkovich… Read more »
Great show ! I look forward to each episode. Please renew it!
I really wish this show would come back next summer. It was fun and different and I really looked forward to each episode.
My husband and I love the show….. Great actors, great show! D O NOT CANCEL!
I now what I think or say will make no differance. I am but one person, but just like pennys when you put them together they tend to add up. lets all keep voicing our opinion and maybe this great show comes back or moves to another network. CROSSBONES IS GREAT!!!
