Stephen Dorff is a familiar face to FOX viewers who watched the second season of Star. Now, he’s back on the network in the lead role of new series called Deputy. FOX has had a tough time establishing new drama series. Will this one be any different? Will Deputy be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
A gritty crime drama with the flavor of a classic Western, Deputy was created by Will Beall and stars Dorff, Yara Martinez, Brian Van Holt, Bex Taylor-Klaus, Shane Paul McGhie, and Mark Moses. The show follows an ensemble of ambitious and complicated people who won’t rest until justice is served. The story begins when the elected Sheriff of LA County dies and an arcane rule in the county charter suddenly thrusts the most unlikely man into the job. A true “white hat”, Bill Hollister (Dorff) is a fifth-generation lawman and is only interested in justice. His close team includes Deputy Cade Ward (Van Holt), Deputy Brianna Bishop (Taylor-Klaus), and Deputy Joseph Harris (McGhie). Hollister frequently butts heads with Doctor Paula Reyes (Martinez), chief trauma surgeon of LA County General Hospital and also, Hollister’s wife.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

What do you think? Do you like the Deputy TV series on FOX? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
*4/3/20 update: FOX has cancelled the Deputy TV series after one season.
I wanted to watch more episodes but the bouncing of the camera during the close-up scenes was extremely annoying…so annoying that I cancelled upcoming and recorded episodes. Slight jarring of the camera such as during the old Hillstreet Blues would have been ok but the likes of the Deputy was causing headaches.
Please bring Deputy back. It’s a great show. You guys always kill the good shows and don’t give them a chance…
Deputy is one of the best new shows. I really can’t believe that they canceled it. Please reconsider bringing it back.
Deputy should not be cancelled.
Please bring Deputy back!!! My husband and I enjoy Deputy very much. It has a great cast with interesting story lines. We are so tired of the reality shows!
Please bring this back, this is an awesome show, it has action ,deep rich characters and good messages. Hooked and now nothing.
Please bring back this show!!!! My daughter and I both love it! She is in the low 30 demographic and I am in the late 60s! So please make us happy! I loved all the actors and the characters they played!!! Great Great show!
Bring the Deputy back. One of best shows canceled. What a mistake!!!!!!!! Maybe better time would help. Because story and acting were great and show should not have been canceled. Maybe your ratings are off?!??
PLEASE KEEP THE SHOW really enjoy it. GIVE IT ANOTHER CHANCE..
Please keep the show!!!!!
There are so many stories that are not complete and I love all of the characters.
Fox your stupid this is a good show
Love this show. Please bring it back
I love this show. I look forward on seeing it every week. I think if they give it more time it would pick up more audiences. Every body I tell about it, they start watching it and also love it!
The Deputy is a great show. It just needs a season 2 to get the show more established. It will become more and more popular as people see it. Bring it back and give it a chance. Cancelling was a mistake.
I love the show Deputy! Please give it another chance!
