It sounds like the Eyewitness TV show from USA Network will wrap up the story in one season. The show’s creator says that the series is an anthology program so a different story will be covered in season two. But, will the show’s ratings be good enough for it to be renewed or, will it be cancelled instead? Stay tuned.
A crime thriller, Eyewitness explores a grisly crime from the point of view of the eyewitnesses. The series begins as two teenage boys — Philip Shea (Tyler Young) and Lukas Waldenbeck (James Paxton) — secretly meet in a cabin in the forest to share a first kiss. While there, they witness a shooting and barely escape with their lives. Desperate to keep their relationship a secret and out of fear of being found by the perpetrator, they remain silent. Their lie grows when Philip’s foster mom, Sheriff Helen Torrance (Julianne Nicholson), takes the case. The rest of the cast includes Amanda Brugel, Gil Bellows, Matt Murray, Tattiawna Jones, and Warren Christie.
3/1 Update: Eyewitness has been officially cancelled after one season. Details here.
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.

Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.

USA Network really needs to renew Eyewitness. It’s so good. I love it. Original but classic, creepy but romantic. And great performances!
The show has such amazing reviews. I didn’t know that that it had premiered. I’m now all caught up and must admit that i’m hooked. Julianne is a class act. The rest of the cast is top notch and it’s totally not predictable. Please keep this going
I was not aware this show was on. Skip commercials usually. So today I binge watched the first four episode and vote to definitely RENEW! Wish there was a website to discuss what’s happening. I like beginning a new story each season.

Thank you USA you finally got a hit for us gay fans I hope you make many season’s of Eyewitness with Lukas and Philips of course they are what makes the show great I told my friends about it they didn’t believe me cause they weren’t fans of the USA NETWORK but wow they are hooked now so thank you USA you finally gave us a show that we love with the most wonderful gay storyline iv ever seen!

Love love love this show!!! The characters and murder mystery are interesting, and the central romance between Lukas and Philip is wonderfully complex and utterly compelling. The actors are all doing great jobs. This show deserves better ratings and another season (hopefully with the same actors)!
I’m so proud of USA for giving us a great show with a amazing gay storyline that I hope continues in season two cause Philkas is the gay Edward and Bella from Twilight that us gay fans always wanted to see so please dont take that away from us RENEW IT!
Renew this show!! This is a unique, and wonderful show with a very talented cast! Please Renew & keep the cast! Philip & Lukas are wonderful!
I don’t understand why the ratings are low Lukas&Phillip has a huge fan base and fb is flooded with likes of the show and all I hear on fb and Twitter is that fans want the same cast on the second season so yea this show is very popular so yes renew it!
This show trends on Tumblr every monday as well, so I don’t really understand the ratings either. Maybe USA Network isn’t that accessible or doesn’t have a huge amount of clients. I’m part of the “international fandom” so I know I can’t watch the show live, but I would if I could.
Edit: It trends every Sunday on Tumblr… sorry
Best show ever on USA and I’m so proud that we got such a great storyline pls keep it going for many season!
RENEW!!!! Cause my friends,family,and I love Philip and Lukas and it’s so rare to get to see a great gay storyline that’s real and passionate and Lukas and Philips has such great chemistry so for all the gay fans out there and fans of the show please RENEW IT!!!

CANCEL!!!!!!!!!!!!! please cancel asap.
