The Tuesdays at 10pm timeslot has been a big ratings problem for ABC for quite awhile. Show after show has been cancelled. Will their new Forever series change that trend? Will it be renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
On the Forever TV show, New York City’s star medical examiner is Doctor Henry Morgan (Ioan Gruffudd). He can ascertain things that most can not because of his vast experience — he’s been alive for 200 years but can’t figure out how or why. The rest of the cast includes Alana de la Garza, Lorraine Toussaint, Donnie Keshawarz, Joel David Moore, and Judd Hirsch.
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 — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.
Note: These are the final national numbers (unless noted with an “*”). These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you like the Forever TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Please please please don’t cancel this show!!! It’s the ONLY reason I watch ABC. If anything give it a better time slot!!!!
I love this show. It would be a shame if they cancelled it. The cast is great, the plot is interesting, and I look forward to seeing it every week.
do not cancel it,it is interesting and humane
Do not cancel this show!! It is the only thing I watch on this network!
Great program being in the medical fu
Love the show- like the relationship of father and son. Great mix of today and past.
Another season would be great.
This show is absolutely wonderful! The actors are clever and human, which is a novelty! There are no frills and, therefore, it’s very nice to watch!
Love this show! Please renew it and give it a chance to grow it’s audience. It will pick up viewers. Remember how Castle struggled, now a hit show!
Please don’t cancel this show! Whenever there’s a fresh idea that is really appealing, it gets cancelled in favor of the same old garbage! This show is great!
An interesting and intelligent show with and outstanding cast.
Terrible time slot. Please move this show to a new night and renew it.
This is a great show. Interesting story line, minimal gore.
This is the one of the very few network shows worth watching! An unusual premise in an overdone arena of a coroner’s office, really, now many CSIs or NCIS shows do we need? Finally, something with some style, and flair, and interest. Don’t cancel a good thing! Renew another season, and move it to a time slot where it has a chance.
Please, please don’t cancel Forever. It’s a great show!
this is THE nicest tv show they’ve done in years, IMHO.
Canceling it would be a CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY!
When you have such a good show, don’t cancel it.
