Bradley James enjoyed a long run on his previous TV show, Merlin. How will his new A&E show perform? Will it be a success in the ratings? Cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
Based on The Omen feature film, Damien follows the now adult Damien Thorn (James). After experiencing a traumatic event while on assignment in Syria, this acclaimed war photographer is forced to confront his past and face the fact that he is the Antichrist. The rest of the cast includes Barbara Hershey, Scott Wilson, Omid Abtahi, Megalyn Echikunwoke, Robin Weigert, and David Meunier.

What do you think? Do you like the Damien TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I would be over the moon if Damien was scheduled for a second season best tv show for years
I hope everyone here is not that delusional to think this will be renewed… Don’t get me wrong… I watch Damien… It does certain things very well… For instance, some incredible dark & visceral imagery but it’s stretched a thin premise even thinner making for a slow moving lot and characters that aren’t exactly ‘filled-in’… Enjoy this season, this will be the last… And that conclusion is drawn from the ratings. A&E has cancelled freshman shows with double the ratings that Damien is pulling… Love it or hate it, this season is it for Damien.
Obviously I meant ‘plot’ not ‘lot’… Fat fingers! ☺️
You can tell it was developed for lifetime. Bad actors and lousy writing. They lose about a million viewers from bates motel lead in. Plus the lead doing his American accent makes it look like its dubbed. His mouth moves so weird.
Developed for Lifetime? That explains why the anti-Christ is basically a nice person on this show, just a cute boy with a bad parent.
Lifetime? It’s on the A&E Network.
Renew!!! love it!
Renew.
Absolutely a top notch series. Every episode has been entertaining. Season 2 is a must
How is raise from 0.12 to 0.18 50% ?
50% of .12 is .06. Add .06 to .12, you get .18. So a 50% increase, mathematically: ((0.18-0.12)/0.12)*100=50.
I’m a huge fan of all the Omen films and I’m glad that the franchise is getting a new lease on life. Love this new gritty more realistic take on the Saga. Bradley James is great as Damien.
I love this show and hope it’s renewed… will definitely be watching!
Bates Motel is much better than Damien. More interesting stories, better lead actors. From the first episode of Bates you see darkness in Norman.
I don’t understand why so many people hate this show after watching only the first episode. People apparently prefer to watch boring reality tv instead of giving this show a chance. I think that they did a pretty good job so far. I will definitely keep watching.
I love this show!!! I think its just as good as Bates Motel or better! Much deserving of more seasons! I don’t know why the rates are dropping! Come on people!!! Watch this masterpiece show DAMIEN!!!
Bad, don’t waste your time. And the lead actor needs some acting lessons
Yes!!! We definitely need more seasons 🙂
This show is really good and I hope it gets picked up for a second season! It isn’t ‘dumb’, and despite (or perhaps because of) the story-line, it is very believable. There are shows on that make me shake my head with what they expect us to believe, but this one is smart in that it makes sense and doesn’t throw out curve balls which the creators just expect us to take for granted. I appreciate that in a show.
