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 think you did put it in a poor slot. C’mon–he is immortal!!! You can’t kill him off!! I looked forward each week to watching–one of the top two on my watch list!
Absolutely love this show, I am beyond devastated that it’s been cancelled. Just goes to show that intelligent shows don’t last in America…..
Yes I agree like my wife your station only think of the stupid show for young college kids like Big Bang. We do not like to see these comedy shows which are really dumb. We in our house like CSI , NCIS , Flash, Person of Interest and other shows like that. We like Forever because it was a good show. If you don’t it give it to other station or offer it to them. I hope you like my wife reconsider bringing it back . I guess it might be time to watch like we do shows on other… Read more »
I do not understand why the good and different shows like Forever get cancelled. I hope you can find something along the same line that will fill the interest of the people who will go to different stations foe entertainment
Yes I agree That is why some of the good shows are on TNT and stations. WE watch Metv and other station more than yours. Keep good shows on that the grown people can watch stop catering to the young. Soon your station will be a has been. Keep Forever on We all like to watch it. It has a good plot and good actors and actresses Lisens to your listeners.
Was one of my favorite shows.
Une série très original , elle sort de l’ordinaire, les acteurs sont très biens . Mon mari et moi, on adore, nous sommes fans à 100%.
I love the show I’m sad they can canceled it
After the season’s final, I went to see if the show was going to get another season. I can’t describe my disappointment while I was reading the sad sad news… Such a shame! I loved the father and son relationship and though the show would have end ONLY after Abe’s death, it would have made sense… Passing on duty to another caring person: Jo…That cliffhanger leave us all fans with a feeling of unachievement… They definitively have to reconsider! From France with love… forever!
I hope they renew it. It is such a great show. I absolutely love watching it every week. I like that it’s a different spin on solving murders. Please don’t cancel
I hope they keep it and move it to a different. Garbage shows are kept while fun shows are cancelled. I hope they reconsider
I love this show! I am going to miss it. I hope maybe netflix takes it on! Either way, they left us on a cliffhanger and that isn’t fair at all. I signed a petition however much help that will be. It’s tuesday night and all I have to look forward to is bed. BRING FOREVER BACK!!
Another great show cancelled while reality garbage like the Bachelor keeps getting renewed. Wake up ABC, you had a winner here, just stuck it in a terrible time slot. Bring it back
What a stupid mistake to cancel this show. It is well written and you actually care about the characters. It was the best new show last year. The Fans certainly think so. I really really hope another network is smart enough to pick it up!
i believe abc should listen to its viewers and renew forever for a second season not cancel it put it on a different night dont take one of the best programs on tv off the viewers should have a say in the matter
big mistake ABC ! This show should be renewed , it could last forever.
Forever will be sorely missed. I do hope as many fans state they will not be watching ABC in the time slot that Forever revived.
