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.
5/8 update: ABC has cancelled Forever after one season. Details here.
Final season averages: 1.12 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 4.93 million total viewers.

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…..Renew the show…..
I love Castle, but it’s getting dry in some episodes where Forever feels fresh. Its a cross between Castle and Sherlock and it’s only getting better. I agree with the others, it’s fascinating and well done. I care about these characters after one season. Once word gets around the viewer numbers are only going to improve. I’ve seen a lot of good shows given up on and a lot of repetitive crap continue on. I hope someone who makes the decisions, Renews Forever.
I love this show. I think the characters are smart and complex- to keep it interesting. The story lien can go in all directions. It sure did keep me guessing. Don’t let this go befoer it has time for everyone to get to know it is out there.
I hate Detective Jo Martinez. I felt towards the end she got jealous and clingy towards Henry. Especially the Abigail episode. Love the show though.
excellent show
I love this show, fingers and toes are crossed for it coming back for another season!!
PLEASE renew “Forever” and give it a better time slot!
This is my favorite show on television. I also enjoy “Castle” and “Suits.”
Forever is a great show. I hope it will be renewed for season 2.
This is one of the few shows my husband and I agree on. We love it! It better get renewed!
We love the show and watch it every week on demand. Renew it please!
I hope they renew this show. It’s one of the best shows on TV and I can’t wait each week for it to come on.
Renew the show please.. It is interesting and original..
Please, do not cancel this show! The entire cast is great, and there is more stories to tell! Not ready to say good-bye to this marvelous cast!
Please don’t allow this excellent show to become yet another premature cancellation for ABC!
I bet people aren’t watching the ratings yet because I believe there would be an outcry. The cast is amazingly diverse and funny in a serious drama. It has everything: suspense, warm family relationships, good plot, great cast, romance COME ON! This show needs to be given an extension and tried on a different night.
