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?
Best show ever abc has Been the best I’ve seen. Will be waiting for next season would like to know what happens with Jo and Dr.morgan
Forever had substance and a actual storyline worth following.
Why not change time or day instead of canceling the entire series???!!!
I truly hope the powers that be wake the hell up and stop canceling series that really can and continue to entertain people, like myself!!!
Great show. Great actors! Disappointing decision to cancel after only one year. Give it a chance. I thought it was one of the few ABC shows that was competitive with the other networks prime time shows… Come on one year is NOT FOREVER!!!
This was the only show worth watching on Thursday night. Please reconsider.
Please renew forever. Great show
Forever has all the elements of excellent TV: talented actors, substantial plot lines, and above all, a creative twist on the police detective genre. Most TV series don’t bloom until 2nd season, so please reconsider renewing.
I love this show. I was looking forward to season 2. Very disappointed with their choice to cancel it. Hopefully it will get pick up by another station.
One more year will show a larger audience. Us sci fi needs take time to get attached but we r worth it… renew please.
Forever is a great show! Why would you cancel it now when people are just finding out about it! I am so sick of the stupid decisions this network makes!
