Batman has been an incredibly popular character for 75 years so it seems like the Gotham TV show should be a slam dunk success in the ratings. Will it actually succeed and be renewed for a second season — or will it bomb? Could it be cancelled quickly? Stay tuned.
Gotham is a dark crime drama that tells the early stories of police detective James Gordon (Ben McKenzie) and iconic Gotham City characters — before they became legendary crimefighters, villains. and vigilantes. The rest of the cast includes Erin Richards, Donal Logue, David Mazouz, Jada Pinkett Smith, John Doman, Camren Bicondova, Robin Lord Taylor, Cory Michael Smith, Zabryna Guevara, Victoria Cartagena, Andrew Stewart Jones, and Sean Pertwee.
The higher a show’s ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better its chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — typically the following morning, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
1/17 update: Gotham has been renewed for a second season.
Final season averages: 2.19 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 6.10 million total viewers.
Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.

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 Gotham TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I love this show and the back sories on all of the characters. Jada Pickett smith is awesome.
This show is so horribly violent, I can barely stand the previews.
And you were expecting it to be like the old Adam West Batman show? Have you not seen recent Batman movies? Gotham is a violent place.
Ditto Kam!!! A “dark” Gotham for a “dark” knight!!!!! Even the old Adam West had plenty of violence, it just had a comic way of looking at it, BIF POW. I LOVE Gotham!!!!!!!
Gotham isn’t canceled they have 22 episodes ordered for season 1!
Fox you suck for canceling Gotham. I will not watch any of your trash that you put on. Gothom was the only show I watched all week on fox network.
Do NOT cancel this show! I have been sucked into the world of Gotham and am happy to stay there. I have even brought my family with me. It is refreshing to have this gritty city pre-Batman and with the promise of introducing iconic characters as the series continues. I never miss an episode.
I hope you won’t cancel it, Robin Lord Taylor’s fans would be devastated; we love him as The Penguin. And as anything else, come to that.
Love this show….please do not cancel it! One of the shows I look forward to watching!
