It used to be a big deal when a movie star starred in a TV show. Now, they get cancelled just as quickly as any other series. How will Halle Berry and Extant do on CBS? Will it be renewed for season two or will it be cancelled after one short season? Stay tuned.
On Extant, astronaut Molly Woods (Berry) returns to Earth after a year-long solo mission in outer space. Her reunion with her family is thrown into turmoil when it’s learned that she’s pregnant. Others in the cast include Goran Visnjic, Pierce Gagnon, Hiroyuki Sanada, Camryn Manheim, Grace Gummer, and Michael O’Neill.
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.
10/9 update: Extant has been renewed for a second season CBS.
Final season averages: 1.1 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 6.15 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.
What do you think? Do you like the Extant TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a second season?
I would hate to see this show canceled. I
Stopped watching shows for the most part
Because all you see any more is reality tv.
This show intrigued me in the commercial
And with only one show left, its just as intriguing.
I hope that it does come back next weekend.
I hope it is renewed. I really like it.
Good story. Lots of suspense. And quit changing the time it starts.
great show!!!!!!!!!
Love the show!! Very different…..
Love the show keep it going next spring.
Renew the show for season 2!
Love the show,binge -watched on amazon all 10 episodes. Missed episode 11 on CBS, will watch the season finale on Sep 10th. Waiting for season 2!!!
This is a good show. I watch it every Wednesday. I hope they continue this series.
wow, this show has almost the exact same rating from week to week. To me that means the EXACT same people watch from week to week, no more no less. talk about a core of loyal viewers.
Sad to see that .10 drop but the latest episodes are steady at least. I think this show is endangered but i like it. Besides ratings though Berry is a bear to work with so if it’s as bad as people say the other cast and producers may want out. These rumors are probably exaggerated but there is always some truth behind it. Worries me not very much but is a shame if she is truely hard to work with. They are lucky Helix is not airing at the same time
Love ths show! Don’t be so quick to cancel. This is why cable shows are such at hit because major networks don’t give shows like a chance to catch on. What they don’t realize is that half of thier audience is fed up with them canceling shows and are now watching cable networks like USA, TNT, Syfy etc. …. There goes your ratings.
Agreed! I am almost afraid to start watching a show on network tv because they are so quick to cancel them. I really enjoy Extant and hope it continues.
good point. almost all you can find on the major networks are “reality” shows, which I have never liked. It is refreshing to see a story type show these days.
So true, Extant has great potential but networks are dinosaurs in thier thinking. They no longer think in terms of investment in to thier programing. Its all about immediate profits. You know, Breaking Bad wasnt popular at first either. But look what a little faith and investment over longer time periods produced for that cable show. When was the last time the networks invested time and faith into the development of a show? Not since All In The Family, The Waltons… they lost nerve with Star Trek and cancelled early. Start developing GOOD TV for an intelligent audience. Cable has,… Read more »
you can only prop up crqp for so long. Eventually it falls off the stick. Spielberg has totally lost the plot with this inane unintelligent dribble.
I love the show, I hope it is renewed!!
Love this show just hope it gets renewed.
I’ve tried to watch this show right up until episode 10. Spielberg has TOTALLY lost the plot both in his mind and with the show. It is erratic,benign and stupid in its entirety and it continually pisses me off with mundane plots and ridiculous scripting. Definitely not an intelligent show for intelligent people. In my opinion the show caters for those of us who are susceptible to mind numbing programming and merely accept what is thrown at us.
