While Hallmark Channel is still quite new to producing original scripted TV shows, the execs still have to pay attention to ratings. Which TV shows are most likely to be cancelled or renewed? Stay tuned.
Scripted Hallmark Channel shows listed: Cedar Cove, Chesapeake Shores, Good Witch, Ride, The Way Home, When Calls The Heart, and When Hope Calls.
Last update: Ratings added for the most recent episode of When Calls The Heart.
There’s lots of data that Hallmark execs look at when deciding whether to renew or cancel a TV series but ratings are the major ingredient. Here’s an updated listing of all of their recent/current primetime scripted shows.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page or view it here.
A couple of notes about these charts:
These figures are updated automatically as new ratings are released (usually a day or so after the broadcasts). The averages are based on the final national numbers (live plus same day viewing). For technical reasons, I have to resort them manually so feel free to let me know if I missed something.
The demo numbers, which are typically most important to the broadcast networks, aren’t quite as vital to cable channels because their audiences are usually much smaller. Demo numbers are typically reported using the 10ths decimal place (2.4, for example). In the averages, I’m using an extra decimal for easier ranking.
What do you think? Are you surprised by any of the ratings? Which shows should be doing better? Which one do you think will be cancelled next?
So very disappointed Home and Family made the terrible decision to get rid of Christina Farrare.She WAS the show from the beginning and made the show what it was,and I mean WAS. It will never be the same and As much as I looked forward to it and LOVED it I can not stomach to watch it anymore. Younger is not better in my eyes,she was the HEART of that show
home and family is not the same. bring back cristina. she was great. Debbie is good but not for this show.
I agree with everyone else; bring Christina back ! She was the ” heart, ” the matriarch of the show. Isn’t it rather dubious, yet even alarming for a show that proposes a family theme to just arbitrarily throw the matriarch away ?
I love Hallmark. I love When Calls The Heart, I love Good Witch & My favorite was Home & Family. Everyone knows that Christina made the show. I love Debbie she is beautiful & talented & I am trying to accept the change but it isn’t easy. Please know we need this channel because the programming is so much better than the other stations. I appreciate the shows you can watch with our families. Keep up the good work. I know the people who make the big decisions have a difficult job but they did make a mistake when they… Read more »
Cancel Home and Family. The program was excellent when Cristina Ferrare was the co-host. She is one of those very rare people who not only has class and sophistication but is also genuinely kind, compassionate, and down to earth at the same time. Cristina was why I watched it. Well shame on you Hallmark, and shame on Debbie. I will never watch Home and Family again.
What are the current ratings for home and family
That is just what I want to know!
Cancel Good Witch. I don’t see the chemistry between Bell and Denton. Like them both, but the movies were so much better than the series. Also thanks for canceling Cedar Cove. Andie is a beautiful woman, but not much of an actress.
Home and Family should be cancelled. Christina Ferrare was the heart and soul of that show. I am expecting ratings to plummet. I was a faithful fan but no longer watch the show.
I am so happy with When calls the heart. At first I thought it would just be a too good to be true series, but the different characters and the twists and turns are bringing this story to life. I really appreciate the depth of the characters. What is funny tho is it’s always cold and whenever outdoor shots are filmed you can see the actors’ breaths. I feel sorry for them – LOL! Also doesn’t Abigail have a hot pad to hold her coffee pot? She seems to hold it by the bottom and you’d think it would burn… Read more »
I love watching When calls the Heart and Good Witch. All the other guys Cassie is friends with and dates is frustrating.. She and Sam are great together, so let it happen! She has amazing wisdom and isn’t easily upset. The show is calming and peaceful to watch.. Many more of them, please!!!
Anxious for When Calls the Heart to start again. These “feel good” shows we need more of! Thank you so much from an avid fan of Hallmark!!!
I am very disappointed that you’ve canceled “Cedar Cove”! Was really looking forward to seeing new episodes! I hope you reconsider!
I also loved the show. I was just trying to figure out when it was coming back on and noticed it was cancelled. I’m so sad. I family watched it every week.
I would like to have Judging Amy and Touch by an Angel shows to come to Hallmark, long running series.
Why did you cancel Cedar Cove ?? It is a great show !! was looking forward to it coming back. The biggest problem is sometime have no idea when the shows are going to be on and which of the two stations. Please bring it back.
Love the Good Witch !! Need more good shows instead of repeats from old shows or else run more movies from 7pm through 3am
I don’t bother with the other When Calls The Heart since it seems you have to have watched it from the beginning.
PLEASE BRING THE SHOW CEDAR COVE BACK. GREAT SHOW
You cancelled Cedar Cove?Have you completely taken leave of your senses? This was the best show in your line up. Think I will stop wasting my time watching the others because you will only cancel those too. Maybe just your channel altogether and it’s my favorite one.
I absolutely love “When Calls The Heart”. Offering an alternative to all the violence on TV is long over due! This program really showcases the good realities of life, like faith, community, struggles, and triumphs. Please continue this journey, it is so needed in our world.
When is Hallmark going to have some love stories where everyone isn’t white?So discouraging in this day and age to focus only on white america.
But you are okay with BET?
