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.

Friends With Better Lives was the funniest new show on TV. I believed it was going to be the next Friends. Great actors with great chemistry. It needs a longer chance. I hope someone else sees that this show is a gem and picks it up.
Me & my husband love this show!! Bring it back !!
One of the best new comedies of the year. CBS, you suck!
I love this show it’s possibly rated right up there with Big Bang theroy!!! Please keep this show on air!!!
FWBL was the new Friends. Loved the chemistry. Loved the show. LMFAO every episode.
This is one of the best shows on TV. Keep this on, and get rid of all those ridiculous reality shows.
Keep FWBL back on!!!! I really thought it was going to be the next F.R.I.E.N.D.S. I got yelled at by my friends because they are now hooked, and they are upset that it’s getting canceled. At least air the rest of the season!!!!!! Please!!!
I absolutely loved this show. It’s funny, witty and cleaver. They’re definitely making a mistake by canceling. It was nice to have an adult comedy to laugh at for a change….
One of the best shows on air . I love it . Not sure how it couldn’t be renewed
This is one heck of a mistake and I’m desperately hoping another network could pick it up. Funniest show on the air right now. BOO CBS!!!
