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.

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?
I am so angry with the news of ABC cancelling Forever! The season was amazing! The show is GREAT! My whole family can enjoy it! I am beyond upset. ABC seriously needs to reconsider!!! Ugh
I am done with ABC. Disney is turning in his grave at all your he crap u keep on tv and get rid of family shows
Very disappointed to hear this show is being cancelled. This is the only program that my daughter & I (both in the 15-49 demographic) make a point to regularly watch, and we both eagerly look forward to each new episode. Clever, quirky & visually appealing…we truly enjoyed Forever. Hopefully this decision can be reconsidered & reversed…this storyline ended way too soon.
I think this is one of the better shows on tv ABC should think twice before they cancel the show. This show was and is done in good taste
Please keep this show. My whole family watches and we really enjoy it. It didn’t get much advertising, maybe that was the issue. And Galavant was renewed? Are you kidding me? That show is awful!
If you cancel “Forever” it will be a big mistake for ABC. It is one of the FEW shows that appeals to adults. It isn’t loud, boisterous or just plain obnoxious. Most TV shows are just too juvenile.
Our entire family is extremely disappointed with the cancellation of this show. It is a clean family show with our favorite ingredients…class, history, smart observations, romance. Please bring it back!!!
I think forever should be renewed.Good show always looked forward to watching it.
I agree, this is a show that my family can watch all the time. ABC is suppose ro be about family time. So now prove it.
Please do not take forever down it is my favorite show and one of the only reasons I watch regular TV instead of Netflix please do not take it down
Don’t take forever away if its gone so am iI goodbye abc
Our family is so disappointed that your have cancelled this show! We love the good family shows and then you cancel them. We really ask you to bring back this shows. There are many that should be cancelled instead. We have watched every episode and have loved them . I just don’t understand your reasoning. Please bring it back! We are in shock!
This is one of the better current shows. Hate to see it cancelled. Hope this decision will be re-evaluated.
I am from Mexico. Love, LOVE FOREVER! Please we need the second, third, fourth………season
I will never watch ABC again. You have lost a fan. Forever is the best show on TV. It has class, , romance, history, great story lines. I t i s the most clever show ever!!!! ABC needs to get a clue, if they want to keep thier jobs.. What a huge mistake.!!!!! Dumb and dumber really does apply. I am furious. Shame, shame and more shame to the knuckle heads who make really bad choices.
