What’s This TV Show About?
A period drama series airing on the Starz cable channel, the Dangerous Liaisons TV show is a prequel to the classic 18th-century French novel. It stars Alice Englert, Nicholas Denton, Lesley Manville, Kosar Ali, Carice van Houten, Hilton Pelser, Fisayo Akinade, Michael McElhatton, Nathanael Saleh, Colette Dalal Tchantcho, Hakeem Kae-Kazim, and Tom Wlaschiha. The series revolves around the story of how the Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont met as passionate young lovers in Paris on the eve of the revolution. In this time, Pascal (Denton) and Camille (Englert) are simply two young people who are dreaming of a better life together. Camille, who is taken in by the current Marquise de Merteuil (Manville), navigates her own path in a world of men, using the power of secrets to take back control. Meanwhile, Valmont will stop at nothing to regain the title that was recently taken from him. Their on-again-off-again love story is the heart of the series. Of course, it’s not love — it’s war.
Season One Ratings
Based on the numbers we have, the first season of Dangerous Liaisons averaged a 0.02 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 67,000 viewers. (The linear ratings are quite low, so there are some gaps in our reporting of them.) While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.

Telly’s Take
We don’t have to worry about Dangerous Liaisons being cancelled since the Starz series was given an early renewal for season two. That’s a good thing since the ratings are very low.
