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.
OMG!! PLEASE RENEW THIS SHOW AND GIVE IT A CHANCE IM SO IN LOVE WITH ALL THE CHARACTERS!! MAYBE CHANGING THE DAY AND TIME SLOT WOULD WORK. ANGELICOS LIVE ON!!!

I love the show! Please renew for 2ND season! Best show on TV right now by far!
Please please please don’t cancel this show. My family loves it. I was so sad to see that last week was the season finally. I hope there will be a second season.
I would have a second season because the show was awesome and i was always excited for Thursdays just for that show so please bring it back
Renew this show. I just recently found this show and watched all of season one in just two days. You can’t leave a cliffhanger that big and not come back to finish the story. RENEW!!
Great show!!! Needs to be advertised better!!!
I think I will be devastated if there is no season 2. I agree with Brian it needs to be advertised more creatively and more often.
I would renew it. Its by far the best TV show on the network. I bet second season would be a launch because people would recomend it as well.and more viewers would also watch if they played it on FX channel.
I agree, fox should show season 2…
If you cancel this show you all should all be fired this is one of the best series you a put together. Do the right thing and renew it. Don’t be stupid will never watch fox if you cancel it
Very good show give it a chance . I think it needs to be advertised better .
