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.

Do not cancel it. It was a great show for our entire family (including 2 teenagers). Please bring it back!
My husband and I looked forward to watching this every week! My dad and call each other and talk about the show. It’s such a new and refreshing idea. I can’t handle another crime or doctor show. Those have been done over and over. Please reconsider. Maybe put it in another time slot.
RENEW FOREVER! We are in the Internet age, so a lot of people do not watch shows live on TV. I happened to watch some episodes on Icelandic air and then followed up with it on the ABC app. People will come across it in the summer, and then look forward to it in the fall. If you allow Netflix the rights for it immediately, people will watch it. Please bring back forever! The actresses and actors in it are excellent, and deserve a chance to keep going.
Please keep this site on the air! This show is do well written and I’d one of the only shows our entire family can watch. This would be a terrible loss!
Love Forever….great story and great characters. Hope ABC reconsiders!
I am done with ABC! Every time I find an entertaining and excellent show to watch, they cancel it! Why should I bother to watch anything on ABC? I become invested and its cancelled. Viewers are just left hanging. #Renew Forever #Renew Resurrection. ABC is the worst network. They do not care about viewers
BRING THIS SHOW BACK! The concept is novel and refreshing. There was nothing like it on any channel and I looked forward to it every week.
Move it to a better time slot!
The entire family watched this show across all ages on DVR since everyone goes to bed at 10. There are only two shows the whole family watches and this is one of them.
The show is great- it just isn’t in the right time slot to get all the demographics. The entire house is lights out at 10PM yet we watch is as a family the next day – and look forward to it.
Like Forever show so much, very interesting and unique. Every episode and the storyline is so interesting, unlike all the other shows. This show deserves to be there for abc to have any viewers. They keep airing Shonda Rhimes shows that have long become stale. After watching few seasons it’s like the same story spinning with same people and people have long stopped watching them, but they keep continuing those shows.
I can’t believe ABC is canceling one of the few shows that I like. Please reconsider and keep the show running. This has been a great show. It’s different and entertaining. My husband and I look forward to watching. KEEP IT ON THE AIR!!!!
Please reconsider canceling this show! It is the only new show I have enjoyed watching for quite sometime and with other shows I watch ending their series I am going to be left with slim pickings!
Agree, if abc does not renew Forever it’s going to lose viewers. This show is so unique and interesting and storylineis so captivating. All the other shows after watching a few seasons have become stale. Like the Shonda Rhimes shows that have the same story spininnig between the same characters, and so predictable and over dramatic. And abc keeps renewing those.
I can’t believe this show is being cancelled, especially after seeing some of the others that weren’t. It is a wonderful show with twists and turns to keep it so interesting. I love how the past is revealed slowly. The characters are very interesting and the whole concept of the show is fresh and original. The only trouble is that the next episode is a week away. Please don’t cancel after only one season. We don’t have any clue as to why Henry is like he is, and his relationship with Jo is only beginning. It would be cruel to… Read more »
