What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the NBC television network, the Debris TV show stars Jonathan Tucker, Riann Steele, Norbert Leo Butz, and Scroobius Pip. The story begins as mysterious wreckage starts falling from the sky. A secretive international agency named Orbital is tasked with figuring out what the wreckage is, where it came from, and most importantly — what it can do. British MI6 operative Finola Jones (Steele) and American CIA agent Bryan Beneventi (Tucker) are partners but they have very different styles. However, they have no choice but to trust each other as they track down the debris scattered across the Western Hemisphere. Each fragment has unpredictable, powerful, and sometimes dangerous effects on the everyday people who find it. They must race against time as shadowy outside forces seek these objects for nefarious purposes.
Season One Ratings
The first season of Debris averaged a 0.38 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.79 million viewers. Find out how Debris stacks up against other NBC TV shows.
Debris has been cancelled, so there will not be a second season. Could it be revived someday? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will NBC cancel or renew Debris for season two? Science-fiction series don’t typically survive very long on network television and this show’s traditional ratings are a good reminder of why. Despite the trend, I think Debris has a chance at being renewed but I certainly wouldn’t be surprised if it were cancelled either. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.

What do you think? Were you hoping that the Debris TV show would be renewed for a second season? Are you sorry that NBC cancelled this TV series, instead?
Fantastic show that would of grown given a chance ,only hope netflix takes it up or prime ,networks are done.
What a big mistake cancelling this show there were so many ways for this show to unfold. It seems every time we get a good Syfy or Futuristic Show that makes you think about what could be possible or keeps you on the edge of your seat waiting for more that some idiot cancels it. Who’s running these Networks can’t be like minded people who love these shows. Let’s Stop Catering to the Woke Mob and actually put on shows that expand the mind and make you question ” What If” Please Bring it Back!
Please keep debris on for more years. I love this program keep it on. If you want to get rid of other shows get rid of the bachelor shows those are terrible!
Why would you cancel a show that was one of the most entertaining series I’ve seen in a long time. I have never written in to try to encourage the saving of any show, but this one deserves a chance. Change the day, the time slot, etc., but don’t kill it…..
I can’t believe they canceled this show. It was the best show I’ve watched in a long time. Big mistake canceling.
STOP LOOKING AT THE ‘SUPPOSED’ LOW NUMBERS & UNDERSTAND, IT CAN SOMETIMES TAKE TIME FOR A SHOW TO TAKE OFF!!! ESPECIALLY at times like these!!! This is a really good GEM that needs to be brought back!! It’s a LOT better than a lot of the YUCK that’s out there now!!
It is a shame that “Debris” has been cancelled. I really appreciated their premise allowing them to explore a different SF concept each episode.
I also really liked the character work. There was focus on making sure we got a chance to get to know the characters but, for the most part, they managed to avoid making motives/conversations/revelations feel forced, which can be a real challenge for TV shows.
Ah well…
My husband and I love watching Debris together. Very much like Fringe. Why does network tv keep silly spin off shows and never new, exciting, thinking people’s tv? Bring back Debris or sell it to Netflix!
Well said!!!
Debris was such a refreshing new concept for a tv series. There are so many ways the story line could go. There’s nothing else’s like it on tv now. It was such a breath of fresh air in all the line up of all these fake reality shows. I hope another network picks up this great show.
I can’t believe they cancel good shows like debris and keep all of the dumbest shows on TV… I guess shows that actually make people think and question stuff are no good and shows that dumb people down are the kind of stuff that TV networks are all about great guys you are a part of the problem in this world
Debris being cancelled left a lot up in the air. Not fair to us faithful viewers. Some of us do like ‘different’ kind of shows.
I cannot believe Debris has been cancelled that show was so great to watch.
I was really disappointed to hear of Debris being cancelled. I will gladly continue watching this show if it were to be picked up by another station!
Debris was a great show …. I knew right away that it wouldn’t last. Too intelligent and thought provoking for the regular TV viewer. Also the 10 p.m. time slot is usually a killer of shows. I loved this show and the characters involved.
