Tonight marks the season finale of Gang Related on FOX. It’s been a season of twists and turns but have the ratings been strong enough for the show to be renewed for a second season — or will it be cancelled instead?
On Gang Related, a police detective (Ramon Rodriguez) is torn between his allegiance to his job and co-workers and the gang and crime family that raised him. The cast also includes Terry O’Quinn, RZA, Jay Hernandez, Sung Kang, Inbar Lavi, Cliff Curtis, and Shantel VanSanten.
The series debuted at the end of May to a 0.9 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.94 million viewers. That was a poor showing right out of the gate and, over the course of the season, the ratings have gotten even worse. Last week’s episode installment hit a new low with a 0.6 demo rating and just 2.01 million viewers.
The season’s averaged a 0.8 rating with 2.56 million. Compared to the network’s other summer shows, Gang Related is performing well behind MasterChef, 24, Hotel Hell, and So You Think You Can Dance.
Though expectations are lower for summer series, it’s highly unlikely that FOX will want to renew Gang Related for a second season. The ratings are just too low — and they’ve essentially been getting worse week after week. More than likely, the execs will roll the dice and try a new program next year.
But, what do you think? Should Gang Related be cancelled or renewed for a second season? If you ran the network, what would you do?
UPDATE: FOX has cancelled Gang Related after one season.
Please Renew Gang Related.My wife and I LOVE THIS SHOW!!! I don’t watch alot of scripted tv but WE anticipated every episode. PLEASE DONT CANCEL GANG RELATED!!!!
Pleeease give it another season. I love this show!
This show is really good! Please renew season 2.
a few scenes which f were ripped out of The Godfather. I don’t like that Javier Acosta is played by a non latino actor. That pissed me off from the very beginning.
Renew
Please bring Gang Related back for 2nd season Im hooked
I honestly don’t this show will be brought back for season 2. I do watch the show & enjoyed it but it was always the last of my shows that I’d watch. I am curious as to how the rest of it would play out so I do hope for a second season although I highly doubt it !
* don’t think .. Darn auto correct! Lol
Great storyline and the definition of loyalty. I have my family watching it now. Looking forward and hoping to see the second season.
Best Show on TV. Please bring it back!
My husband and I think Gang Related is one of the very best shows on TV. We really look forward to seeing it every week. Please don’t cancel. The story just keeps getting better, we’re hooked.
Yes Yes Yes we want more!
Love this show, had me hooked from beginning to end, hope it comes back for another season…
RENEW IT, LOVE IT..LOVE IT….
Please renew! I’m HOOKED and want to see the stories develop! Don’t keep us hanging!
I think Fox should give Gang Related a chance at a second season. I usually tape Gang (someone who still uses VCR’s) and watch Rookie Blue, but based on last week’s episode, I really wanted to see the finale at the broadcast time. I thought it was strong enough to make me want another season.
