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.
this show was so good it is very well written. there aren’t that many adult TV shows that are of good quality. please don’t cancel the show.
I love this show. Please do not cancel
Renew the show. I love it. Great cast..
This is a GREAT show. If it was advertised more and shown after/before a more popular show right now it would get great ratings and reviews. Especially in the Fall season.
This show has it all and I hope it is renewed. It’s a great show, great cast it just needs a better time slot in the fall.
Oh hell no this new epic TV series must continue it jaw dropping , nail biting , thriller that must continue on !!!!!! DONT CANCLE THE SHOW PLZ!!!!!!!!!!
I love this show, they need to keep it. I don’t get to catch the show until the next day on Hulu cause I work at that time, so maybe that’s what a lot of other people are doing as well, but this is a great show renew it!!!
Fox would be stupid to cancel this show. Those rating don’t show crap. Every person I talk to about the show love it. The rating don’t mean anything they don’t take on account all the people that tape it or watch it on demand. Don’t cancel or you will have a lot of unhappy viewers and I know will not watch fox ever again if they do. Do the right and smart thing and renew it .
Renew it! Love the show!!

Put this show on Netflix and just watch the response by next season. This show is great. Take note from Breaking Bad on this one. One people have a chance to catch up there won’t be another TV drama close to it.
