Last year, AMC moved Hell on Wheels to Saturday nights, leading many to believe the show would be cancelled. The ratings were lower but were good enough for the show to be renewed for a fourth season. Will the numbers rise or sink this time around? Will it be renewed for a fifth season or will it be cancelled instead? Stay tuned!
A gritty period drama that takes place in the 1860s, Hell on Wheels revolves around the construction of the First Transcontinental Railroad and the various people connected with the Union Pacific Railroad. The cast includes Anson Mount, Common, Colm Meaney, Phil Burke, Christopher Heyerdahl, Robin McLeavy, Kasha Kropinski, Dohn Norwood, Jennifer Ferrin, Chelah Horsdal, MacKenzie Porter, Tayden Marks, and Jake Weber.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.
11/7 update: Hell on Wheels has been renewed for a fifth and final season.
Final season averages: 0.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.09 million total viewers.

What do you think? Do you like the Hell on Wheels TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a fifth season?
Please don’t cancel. Only show I watch faithfully. Can’t get enough of Cullen he is gorgeous!
Canceling Hell on Wheels is the biggest mistake AMC is going to make. Absolutely love Cullen! Great casting with the exception of Heyerdahl, never have I known a character that’s as hateable as he is. Don’t cancel this show; you’re just biting your nose to spite your face! You’ll regret it because you’ll lose a huge audience!!!
Please don’t cancel. It’s my only TV show I watch faithfully. Can’t see Cullen enough he is gorgeous!

I am very,very disappointed you have cancelled HELL ON WHEELS it was one of the best on Tv I am so tired of all the crap and Holly wood gitter as I felt this was so true to life and very interesting great acting. I hope another network will pick it up. AMC has so many commercial and may thats why people don’t watch it as my wife and I don’t watch AMC much only when there is something real good like HELL ON WHEELS
It figures that Hell on Wheels would be cancelled; why keep a great show on TV when they can fill it’s place with another show that nobody wants to watch! TV Execs seem to do that! Their taste is in their feet! Thank goodness I’ve recorded all episodes and will continue to do so!
They actually haven’t cancelled Hell on Wheels. According to what I read on Google, the’re going to do 14 more episodes showing 7 next summer and 7 in the summer of 2016. That is when it will end. If they’re interested in my opinion, DO NOT kill off Cullen Bohannon! That would ruin the entire 6 years!!!!!
Yes, there’s an update with a link in this post.
I love Hell on Wheels! Next to The Walking Dead, it’s one of the best shows on Tv!

Also love Hell on Wheels and want it to return next year and years after that! Just LOVE Anson Mount! BUT! Last night’s show was tough to watch! Blood and gore! Had to turn away and mute while the screaming and sawing was going on.
