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?
Renew the show. Love it
One of the BEST shows on TV!! PLEASE bring it back!!!
Please, please, please renew Forever. The cast of characters is phenomel and there’s so much left to learn of them. This is the only program I watch on Tuesday night. It would be such a shame to have these characters just disappear into TV nothingness. They are far too good to be thrown by the wayside.
big mistake, abc, to cancel FOREVER. Best show on TV. Give it another time slot, on a different day. BEST SHOW ON TELEVISION.
Good show, don’t cancel it!
Please save this show! All my other shows have been cancelled I need something to look forward too.
This is insane. They finally have a great show in this time slot, with 5 million viewers, and they are cancelling it? If that Nitwit Rachel Maddow can have 9 people watching her show and somehow stay on cable TV, then 5,000,000 viewers should be plenty enough to keep this program on the air, since it doesn’t have an enormous budget like other sci-fi shows tend to have.
BRING IT BACK!!!!
I use hulu add those too
Please keep Forever!! We love the show.
Don’t cancel it. Please renew it’s one of the better shows out there. Thanks
Please don’t cancel this show. It is the BEST. My husband and I look forward to it EVERY week!!!! The whole cast has perfect chemistry. It is a late time slot, but we always watch it on line the next day.
Must be renewed!!! I only get about 3 hours a week to watch TV and it’s the first one I make sure to watch on #Hulu
I absolutely love this show. It has an interestingly unique storyline that I enjoy. I have to record the show to watch it anytime I want bey add its just so great. And I love all the actors and characters they play. Especially Henry Morgan. Ioan gruffudd. I love his character. The show is too great to be cancelled.
