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?
I love this show. Great plot twist. Handled expertly. Would love to see it renewed.
Please do not cancel the show, it’s really creative and different from others and has a super interesting topic!
Abc. Sux. They always cancel the good shows after 1 season. At least give the audience what they want to see and not leave on a cliffhanger.
I really enjoyed the show, it showed creativity and intelligence. But I did not miss in
The show was the degree of Gore and And intensity that seems to have become the trademark of most other mysteries.I really liked having an intelligent show without all the gratuitous violence andunnecessary shock factor. It dared to meet the needs of people who don’t want all of that and has paid the price for it. What a shame.do the programmers really think we all want the same thing in every single show?
Truly shocking that this show got cancelled. I will surely miss the charming [Kate & ]Leopold/Highlander vibe it had. Not a lot of shows out there that has this level of class and entertainment. 🙁
I absolutely enjoyed the show and its characters. I hope it will be renewed.
ABC are you even taking the time to read all these posts ??? I doubt it,and that’s sad .
You have millions of dedicated viewers posting and some in shock that you cancelled FOREVER,I am one of the many too that are so disappointed in you, and whoever decides to say Yes or No as far as cancelling the show,I am so disappointed with you people that decide to cancel or stay !!!!!!! Everyone is just asking for you not to Cancel the great show FOREVER.!!!!!!!Why can’t you do that for the audience that truly loves FOREVER??????
Bring it back!!!!!!!!
Forever was the one new show this season that illustrated some creativity. It was not the same old cop and robber formula that is seen over and over again just with more violence each new year. Give quality new shows a chance for people to find them.
I loved Forever! It was my favourite show on tv – REALLY upset that it’s been cancelled!!!
Keep this program!
I really like forever. If there is a problem it is with the script.
They used something like the mentalist.
We like to see something different each week.
Bringing the past in to demonstrate where his knowledge
comes from is execellent.
I really liked Forever, I was looking forward to the next season… 🙁
My boyfriend and I watch the recordings wvery week because of our busy schedule between work and school. We are your older crowd (40’s), but enjoy it because of the historical flair between his life and the events of the time. Plus the dynamic energy in the characters relationships.
Please don’t cancel forever, I was looking forward to Henry telling Jo about his secret! It was one show my husband and I watched and we truly love it! It was an amazing story line something that has never been thought of! I am still getting used to body if proof being canceled! Stop canceling the good shows abc!
Please don’t cancel this show its my favorite
