Last season, Gotham saw another big drop in the ratings but it remained one of FOX’s top scripted shows. If the numbers continue to drop, could the show be cancelled or, is it all but guaranteed to be renewed for a fourth season because of syndication? Stay tuned.
A dark crime drama, Gotham tells the early stories of police detective James Gordon (Ben McKenzie) and iconic Gotham City characters — before they became legendary crimefighters, villains, and heroes. Season three begins with Gordon taking matters into his own hands and becoming a vigilante. The rest of the cast includes Donal Logue, Morena Baccarin, Sean Pertwee, Robin Lord Taylor, Erin Richards, David Mazouz, Camren Bicondova, Cory Michael Smith, Jessica Lucas, Chris Chalk, Drew Powell, and Michael Chiklis.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

For comparisons: The second season of Gotham averaged a 1.40 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 4.09 million total viewers (live + same day ratings).
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.

we are from ISR and we watch it on the net but i believe that f this show was aired here people would love it.

thank you.
I love this show. In my mind, it is probably my favorite of all the current crop of shows on all the networks! All of the characters are unique and very interesting! I would hate to see this show end. The movies have all been different, so the exact canon is not violated with a young iterations of Batman and Cat-woman. I do very much like the darker tones and brilliant story telling. Just keep it up, please!!!
I can’t wait to see Bruce become batman next season best two hours ever seen before on tv for finale episode it was best one last 2 years been on.
The break in in January broke my habit of staying home to watch it, but I love the show and hate that it could end end before the story is complete! !!
Love this show. Great acting.
I love this show better be renewed, it was Fox’s fault why its lost ratings for putting it on hiatus for so long cause they tried to push 24 legacy on us!
Yes, Please renew for a 4th season.
Gotham is a brilliant tv show keep it flowing
My son and I are really enjoying Gotham season 3 having watched the previous two seasons as well. We really do hope there is a season 4.
#RenewGotham IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN!
The ratings indicate that taking a long break from January to April cost the show a half a million viewers.
Bad move!
