Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you like the Go On TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
PLEASE give this show a chance, it is funny and it is helping the grieve stricken community
It took me a few episodes but it always makes me laugh out loud. It’s one of my favorite new shows. I am not sure NBC is doing enough in 2013 to promote the show and the ratings have dropped by half… it needs a second season and more support.
It looks like this show will get cancelled…if it moved to a different time/night it might work but it is hard to get good time slots for Comedy Sitcoms with all the Reality Competition shows like AI, the voice, AGT, XFactor taking up quality tv time for shows that are all alike…
Renew!!!!!
Such a great show with a wonderful cast….Please renew this series….
Please don’t cancel the show!! I love the humor! It has a feel good vibe to it.
This show needs to stay on air. Using TV ratings with a show who has a massive following in an online-format is just an out of date technique!
Please don’t cancel this series!!! It’s one of the few series that actually still teaches good values, has witty humor, and leaves you warm and fuzzy inside.
Dont cancel it. This is a great show. AND MATTHEW PERRY IS AMAZING.
I think this show is great. The show is very funny and the story line has been fun to follow. The characters are relational and I hope to see a second season of the show. It’s hard to find a fun, clean comedy on tv anymore. Classics like the Cosby show, full house, and many others have made big success, and I this show has potential as well to keep going!
PLEASE DONT CANCEL IT
This is the best new comedy that NBC has produced in a long time. I would hate to see NBC give it the axe.
When they move it to another night, it is harder to find. How do they expect people to watch it?
My husband and I both love “Go On” and have always been fans of Matthew Perry and his natural humor.
Jim just came in the room and said “Go On” cancelled – NO!! – it has to be renewed.
We wholeheartedly hope “Go On” will be renewed.
I really love Go On and will be sad if it’s cancelled. Show me some love NBC.
