CBS has introduced several new sitcoms this season. Some have done well in the ratings while others have not. How will Friends with Better Lives preform in the ratings? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned to find out.
Friends with Better Lives follows the lives of six young people who are at various stages of their lives — married, divorced, newly engaged, and single — with each wondering if the others have it better. The cast includes Majandra Delfino, Kevin Connolly, Brooklyn Decker, Rick Donald, Zoe Lister-Jones, and James Van Der Beek.
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 — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
5/10 update: CBS cancelled Friends with Better Lives after five episodes aired.
5/28 update: CBS has pulled this sitcom from the schedule, leaving five episodes unaired.

Note: Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Friends with Better Lives TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a second season?
This is the best comedy out right now. It’s the only one my husband will watch with me that he actually laughs at. I hope another network picks it up.
