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.

What do you think? Do you like the Dracula TV series? Would you like to see it cancelled or renewed for second season?
I would love to see Dracula renewed for a second season. I absolutely love this show. I may not have TV at home but I do watch it on NBC’s site or on hulu. Please keep this wonderful show around.
All I can say is i came in late to watch the show i didnt even know about it till the other day and in the last 2 days i’ve spent my life glued to the t.v catching up with the season and have just finished the lasted episode. All i can say that I’m hooked and was so upset to know that there was only 10 episodes!!! I need more You cant have it end like that! Please think about keeping it around!
Loved it, bring it back!
I’m from Ukraine, but I’m also watching Dracula, GREAT actors, TERRIFIC decorations, AWESOME job! Waiting for season 2, thank’s NBC for such beautiful TV Show
Please bring it back for another season! The ending was left open ended, and it would be wonderful for the story to continue! Although the show doesn’t follow the initial story, I have enjoyed the differences. Besides, they can’t get Mina and Dracula together at last and leave the love story like that!
I’m french, I discovered the show a few weeks ago on internet and I absolutely LOVE it. I would love to see it on a French Chanel in a few months !
The show has to be renewed, no question about it!
The final was so epic! I can’t wait to see another ep. The actors are so very good.
Please, it can’t be cancelled !
My husband and I are crazy about this show! I am so worried that it won’t be coming back on and that is such a horrible thought. I really hope to see it again next season!!!it is such an awesome show! Love you, Alexander and Mina!!!
Same here my husband and I Loved loved loved the entire season 🙂 Looking forward to season 2, hopefully they will not cancel the show.Love the cinematography, costumes ,everything is carefully put together.
Personally…I absolutely LOVE Dracula. With so many “TV series” type shows out there today this show definitely got my FULL attention. I think Johnathan Rhys Meyers is doing a FANTASTIC job as the “dark prince”. And after i watched the season 1 finale the other night it most certainly & obviously ended with a season 2 being planned. I HOPE to high heaven i’m right about that because there were “rumors” going around that the ratings were so bad NBC was undecided on giving it another season. Plus, this network (NBC) has had a REALLY “bad habit” of just cancelling… Read more »
I loved watching “Dracula” on Friday nights !! Please bring it back for another season !!
There is a petition on Change.Org…NBC:Continue Producing NBCDracula
Pass it on.
Please don’t cancel Dracula! My family and I DVR it and love it! I can’t wait to see what happens next season! Please keep Grimm and Dracula! Pleasr!
Please renew this show for another season. Excellent screen writing. Every episode has me by the throat – no pun intended – and I am not easily enthused. Even though the season finale was epic, tragic and beautiful, the story is left wide open and could take so many turns – I am thinking of them all already! I especially love the tribute paid to Nikola Tesla… Great writing!
Am obsessed with the show, and would not like to see it cancelled. All the characters do such a great job, the costumes are beautiful, and the sceneries are gorgeous… and to top it off you have Mr. Alexander (fine man) Greyson, why cancel it?! 🙁
Well it looks like the people have spoken. From the comments everyone loves this show, so why not give it another shot? Especially now that the season finale came and went, there are so many, many questions. The most compelling, what is going to happen to all the people who have now been turned into creatures? There’s Lucy, Lady Jayne, Mr. Browning and his kids, Lucy’s poor old mum..geeez…Lucy that was heartless! After that finale the rest of the story should be told. How do these people all come together in the future..and poor Renfield and that worm Van Helsing…if… Read more »
Absolutely LOVED it… a fresh look at an old tale… Marvelous
Best show ever ….please don’t cancel.
It’s exciting, passionate and intriguing….I can’t wait to see it on Friday’s …give it a chance.
Good show, don’t cancel! It’s a good new story of Dracula
Please DO NOT cancel Dracula, it has everything a good Friday night series should have…suspense,romance and gore with very talented actors!Please give it a chance, many series don’t get off the ground in the first season. I have watched every episode and it keeps getting better and better.
