The peacock network has found ratings success with the dark Grimm series on Friday nights. Is there room for another spooky thriller or will Dracula be cancelled quickly like so many other series? Stay tuned!
NBC’s Dracula is a retelling of the classic Bram Stoker story. In London, Dracula (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) is posing as an American entrepreneur while he seeks revenge on those who cursed him. He doesn’t count on falling in love with a woman (Jessica De Gouw) who looks just like his deceased wife. Others in the cast include Thomas Kretschmann, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Victoria Smurfit, Katie McGrath, and Nonso Anozie.
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.
5/10 update: NBC has cancelled Dracula after one season and 10 episodes.
Final season averages: 1.1 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 3.25 million total viewers.

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.

I LOVE THIS SHOW!!! I look forward to it every friday. Its getting better. It was slow art the start but its getting good! Plzzz dont cancel!
Please don’t cancel season 2 I am so looking forward to more. I think it’s a fantastic take on Dracula and look forward to it each week with its dark twists and under lining love story. So once more please give it another chance.
This is the best show on tv! Please do not cancel. It is in line with the cable series like The Tudors, Game of Thrones, etc. Grimm and Dracula make the perfect Friday night lineup.
I agree, Dracula is one of the best shows on tv. Like my other favorite show, Revenge, Dracula keeps me intriqued. I never know what to expect next. I just love everything about this show. NBC should know a hit when it sees one.
Renew renew renew. I live the new take on Dracula. Jonathan Myers is a terrific Dracula and The Rendield character is very creative and well played. Mina is excellent as well lady Jane Weatherbee is an excellent vampire hunter but maybe not such a great temptress. I am glad v Lucy will now be a vamp her story line got old and she was overly whinny. I like the new twist on the Van Helsing character was good originally but the latest with killing the children seems to have made him as back as the order of the Dragon. Harkers… Read more »
Please renew Dracula..
Are you serious?! This is what pisses me off about television, stuff like x-factor and talent shows are CONSTANTLY aired and they are just pure ****, but when something fantastically written and acted as well as something different comes to screen every ******’ channel cancels it with no idea that shows like this bring up massive fandoms. Look at Sherlock for example, it started off quite unknown and it’s future was shakey and now look at it! It has massive fan base?! it takes time for shows like this to get off their feet, and I’m fed up of every… Read more »
Well said Sarah! How many new shows start out great. I am so sick and tired of all these ridiculously stupid reality shows they keep bringing out. Dracula is one of the few shows I have loved from the beginning. I don’t know if any of you have ever heard of a movie called “Idiocracy” with Luke Wilson, Maya Rudolph and Dax Shepard. The government has now dumbed down all the people and it looks like they eat nothing but Genetically Modified Food. The television that the people watch is totally absurd. After I saw this movie I talked about… Read more »
Here, here, I say.
However, there are some good shows on TV. Yes, a lot of crap, but some good. There’s Person of Interest for one. Very different- that’s why I like it. Not your normal type. And mini-series like Game of Thrones, Spartacus and Vikings is always interesting.
But, we must have Dracula on the agenda too.
Please don’t cancel. This is a great show.
Absolutely renew this show-fascinating! Love Grimm, too, but can’t get enough of Dracula!
