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, my wife and I watch every week.
Renew. Renew. Renew!
renew!!!! this is a great show.
My husband and I usually aren’t up when the show comes on to watch it but we record it and have watched every episode. We aren’t big tv show watchers but this is one of the few shows we do watch. I love the whole cast of actors especially Ioan Gruffudd. Please renew the show it is one of the few good shows left on tv. Would love to see how the characters story lines play out.
Please do not cancel this show. Except for Castle it is the best how at has ever been on this network. It reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode about the civil war doctor. There is a movie coming out abut this same subject and even if the movie doesn’t have big ratings, it has already brought attention to the TV show. Change the day if need be, sunday at 10pm but PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE don’t cancel the show. If need be get of stupid comedies, when you can’t understand a character and those reality shows that make you watch… Read more »
I love this show! Please don’t cancel it! I have recommended it to several friends and they all love it now, too. Keep the Season 1 cast – love all the actors – especially Donnie Keshawarz. The story line is intriguing and a unique spin on the “time travel” theme.
PLEASE don’t cancel it!

RENEW IT PLEASE?! This has been a phenomenal show from beginning all the way to the end! Give it a fair chan e PLEASE!
Love Forever. The relationship between Henry and Abe is one of the best written relationships I’ve seen on TV. It deserves a second season. Plus, like the others; I’d love to see what her reaction is to Henry’s secret.
We really enjoy…love the story line…the antiquity…One of our favorites. Please renew “Forever”
Please do not cancel other than Castle it s the best 10 p.m. show you have ever had on this network. It reminds me of old Twilight Zone about a Dr. from the Civil War. Also there is a movie coming out called Adriane(?) about a woman who doesn’t age and is trying to keep her secret. Even if movie is not a hit, it will bring attention to the show. I already have had many Facebook friends asking about TV show and if they can watch it on reruns since they miss first month of it. so PLEASE, PLEASE,… Read more »
This is my favorite new show this season. Great story line, great actors. I’ll be so disappointed if it gets cancelled.
This show is amazing. The cast is awesome, the story is captivating, and the writing is very clever. The fact that Forever is doing poorly is making me lose faith in America. Enough said.
RENEW!!! The premise is fun and the characters are lively and chemistry between the actors is great! We don’t need more seasons of reality TV. We want solid acting and wonderful intrigue. Give this show a chance to shine!
Love this show, Please renew.
After seeing the season finale, I jumped on the web to see if the best new TV series of 2014-2015, was being renewed for a second season. Give this show a chance and your Nielson ratings will grow into an NCIS-type nielson- ratings on a weekly series. Pleading from Germany, bring Henry & Abe back. RENEW!!!
