Last night marked the end of the second season of Graceland on USA. The finale left plenty of story options open for season three and left one main character seemingly dead. How’s the show been doing in the ratings? Will the show get a third season or will it be cancelled?
Graceland revolves around a diverse group of undercover agents from various government law enforcement agencies. They all live together under one roof in “Graceland,” a confiscated beach house in Southern California. The show’s cast includes Daniel Sunjata, Aaron Tveit, Brandon Jay McLaren, Vanessa Ferlito, Manny Montana, and Serinda Swan.

The first season of Graceland averaged 2.24 million viewers and a 0.7 rating in the 18-49 demographic. By USA Network standards, that was a healthy following and the crime drama earned a renewal before the first season finished.
Unfortunately, season two hasn’t performed nearly as well. Year-to-year, Graceland is down by a whopping 44% in viewers and 37% in the demo — averaging 1.25 million and a 0.5 rating.
Ordinarily, this would mean a cancellation for sure but all of USA’s scripted shows are way down — including venerable shows like Royal Pains and Covert Affairs. Plus, new shows Rush and Satisfaction have been struggling.
Based on the ratings, I suspect that USA will cancel Graceland after two seasons. However, theoretically they can’t cancel all of their scripted shows so that may end up working in Graceland’s favor.
But, what do you think? Do you think Graceland should be cancelled or renewed for a third season? Did you stop watching in season two? Why did the ratings fall?
I have no other show to watch besides graceland please dont cancel, and renew for a season 3
Graceland should be renewed for another season. The second season was not quite as exciting as the first for me, but I still really enjoyed watching.
Graceland is a great show by any measure but I feel the reason the ratings suffered this season is the uneven character development. USA is all about characters welcome. The writing to further develop Johnny, Jakes, Briggs, and Charlie was strong, especially Johnny’s wonderful storyline. But the actions of Mike and Paige seemed totally out if character with the characters developed in the first season, made them unlikeable, antagonists and didn’t ring true, leaving the viewer feeling less engaged and invested in them. The show is founded on the friendship and loyalty of the group. You want to root for… Read more »
Graceland is one of my favorites I have been hooked on all of USA new shows also this year. Please renew, there isn’t enogh good tv series anymore too much reality tv. Looking forward to season 3 need to be renewed along with Satisfaction & Rush.
I enjoy Graceland but have a problem with all the drama in the house. Leaving guns, pictures, etc. in plain site, not having a security system – all seems kind of wrong if you are undercover. Maybe the ratings are down but there are so many shows on that I watch most of them on my DVR so I don’t have to deal with the commercials. Bring on a 3rd season. Have Mike’s hospital room wired so the confession is recorded. Have them do more catch the bad guys and less personal stuff.
Love the show and the cast. Please bring it back!!! It needs more advertising and exposure. Excellent television.
Please renew Graceland, it deserves a season 3. It’s one of the best shows on tv!
PLEASE DONT CANCELE, I’m hooked… Love it!!!!
I definitely think it should be renewed. It’s a great show. I think it struggles with ratings because of the time it comes on. I never got to watch it when it was showing. I always had to watch it on demand or something. It’s still a phenomenal show though and deserves a third season.
I really enjoy the show and feel that it deserves another season.
From Belgium, i think Graceland should be renewed !!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes!!!!!!! Renew it now!! Please. I must know what happens to the gang.
I think Graceland should be renewed I personaly liked the 2nd season better and think that a third will be better as well and I want some fallow up on mike is he dead for good or not
I really want a 3rd season!!! The performances of the actors are amazing and the storylines are dark and dangerous. There have been so many moments when it was so tense and I was so scared for the characters. I care about these characters and I thought that characters were welcome at USA, so renew it!!!!! Please!!!!
I think Graceland should be renewed. I do wish that there was more episodes in January and again in May, rather than a year to year format. I really enjoy the show and all its twists and turns!
