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?
Love this show. Thought it was going to be lame with the main character just dying and returning each week. The characters have been developed and the storyline is interesting and entertaining now.
I love this show. I sure hope they continue it next year. It is only one of a few shows worth watching.
Love, love this show, please do not cancel!!
Do not cancel this show! it´s great! I am watching it online because I can´t do it differently (I don´t have your channels) but I bet a lot of other people are doing this as well! So the ratings you´ve got don´t really give a right picture of how many people view this show!
Please do not cancel!!!!
We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, this show. FOREVER…. the stars are great, the show is imaginative, it is cute, fun, and so interesting. The flashbacks are tender and give you info. on Henry’s and his “son’s” life, we love it. It is a clever show and the hour goes by so quickly. It’s too bad they put it against other popular shows on other stations. We had to give up watching, person of interest for Forever and it was worth it. We are waiting for Henry and the detective to get together romantically. There are many other shows that are ready… Read more »

I’m a Brit and my missus and I love Forever – one of the best series’ on TV! We’d be gutted if it were to cancel!
If they always cancel, people will not start watching new shows. We don’t like starting all new so often.
Absolutely love
plz don’t cancel
This started strong, took a dip and seems to be coming around. Please give it a chance. It is different and delightful and although my husband and I have different tastes in TV watching one of the few shows we enjoy watching together. I hope it sticks around a while as it has a great chance to acquire viewers.
Please, don’t cancel this show. I think it’s pretty amazing, and my friends think that, too. We can be minority, but after season 2 or 3 this shows fans will be increase, I believe. So much people wait for season two to watch the show, because they are afraid that you will cancel the show. They are afraid that, they could be already in love with the show you are canceling. Do you know how much it hurts, huh? When I watched the show, I would know that I had a risk. And you made it real. I know I… Read more »
