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?
I absolutely love the show. I just watched the finale and would love to see the show progress with her now knowing the truth. I think that maybe more than one person may learn his truth. I really hope that they will bring it back. I just do not understand why they only look at the 18-49 age group, why not the age group that is older than they are or are we not important enough to give our opinion?
Totally renew! It is the only show that I NEVER miss! It is by far my favorite show! I can’t stand the last cliff-hanger! I want to know Jo’s reaction. They all are the best actors for this show. Jo and Henry are the cutest couple on television!
Renew this.. It is an intelligent and fun show. Both my wife and I look forward to it each week.
I like Forever a lot. It’s fun, upbeat and entertaining. I really hope they renew it!
I really enjoyed watching Forever. PLEASE renew it for a second season!!
RENEW!!!!!!! Best new show on tv. Brilliant!
My husband I LOVE Forever! PLEASE renew it for a second season!
#RENEWFOREVER!!!
I like Forever. I hope they renew it. It is a new concept with a mystery theme, and I think it works quite well.
This show should be renewed. The writers attention to times and places and inner dialogue of the character is remarkable. And if the show does not return, the last show was a graceful present to the faithful viewers, instead of the usual sudden network axe to the storyline.
Keep it! Love the show; some episodes were better than others, however I really think this series has room to grow more viewers.
I have not missed an episode! Also, a lot of people use DVR, which I know is not included in ratings!
Please, please renew this wonderful show! Especially now that we are waiting to see what Henry tells Jo! Love this show, keep it on the air please!
Love the show. One of the only ones I have to tape if I won’t be home
Please keep it. It was wonderful
Please renew. Fantastic, smart show with tons of potential. Just needes to be in an earlier time slot vfor thosevof us that have to go to bed early and dvr or hulu it. Sice
we need to work the next day. Love love love it !!!!!!! Please renew
I hope the series Forever is not cancelled. It is one of the best TV shows I have seen in a long time. Give it a chance, remember the old days when some of the greatest shows didn’t do well the first year and went on to be super shows like Mash. Everyone wants instant gratification now no one wants to wait it out. I think it would be worth the wait. Please renew the show.
Renew it….its a great show
