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 give it a chance…..great show
Please renew. Great plots and great cast. Kept us on the edge of our seat and couldn’t wait for the next episode. Fall would have had a greater following. It was so enjoyable that it deserves a second chance.
Great show!! Please Renew Show For Season 2!!!!
I love the show pls round two
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LET THERE BE A SECOND AND THIRD SEASON!!!! THIS SHOW IS AMAZEBALLS!!!! MY FAMILY IS ADDICTED TO THIS SHOW!! IT IS BY FAR THE BEST SHOW I HAVE EVER SEEN!! Please don’t get caught up in the ratings not reaching a certain point because there are people who truly enjoyed this series. You should at least give us one more season and I guarantee it would be better because your loyal viewers will get other viewers by word of mouth. Please keep it around a while longer.
Please keep this show on the air -wonderful acting writing and story – I love it
Please renew Gang a Related! Best show of the summer! Well written, acting is great, plot twists are off the chart! If Fox cancels I hope it gets picked up by a Cable Network like FX or USA. THIS SHOW IS GREAT! Haven’t missed an episode. This is Must See TV!
