ABC has had some great success with Shonda Rhimes TV shows on Thursdays. Will How to Get Away with Murder be a hit in the ratings too? Will it be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
A legal-mystery TV series, How to Get Away with Murder revolves around a college professor and defense attorney (Viola Davis) who, along with her students, gets involved with a murder case. The rest of the cast includes Tom Verica, Billy Brown, Alfred Enoch, Aja Naomi King, Jack Falahee, Karla Souza, Matt McGorry, Charlie Weber, Liza Weil, and Katie Findlay.
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 — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
2/27 update: ABC has renewed this series for a second season for Fall 2015.
Final season averages: 3.0 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 9.76 million total viewers.

Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.
Note: These are the final national numbers (unless noted with an “*”). These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings. 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 How to Get Away with Murder TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Glad to see that this poorly conceived series is steadily losing its audience.
How To Get Away With Murder is a brilliant and engaging show. Can’t get enough of it. It should be renewed for another season.
watched first ep, couldn’t get into it but I hear all good things
I, genuinely love this show. The characters are engaging and the dialogue witty. This show deserves to be renewed.
RENEW, RENEW, RENEW!!!!!! THE SHOW IS AWESOME, I LOVE IT!!!
should still be renewed, but premiering with a 3.8 and dropping to a running 3.0 means it lost 25% of its audience as the year went on. that’s a pretty big drop I would imagine.
Love the show

I hope this show gets renewed, can’t wait to see what kinds of twists are in the next season. Always suspenseful, lots going on, can’t stop watching it once I start!
This show is all over the place. Couldn’t stay engaged. Stopped watching.
Did not like this show. Too much jumping around and being clever just for clever sake.
watched the pilot and hated ALL the characters, the review I read of the big reveal pretty indicted that they were all in on it. now I know why I hated them all in episode one
I just love this series with all its plot twists! Definitely renew for a second season!
I absolutely love this series. Super finale for the season and a real twist to the program. thank you thank you
I just love “How to Get Away With Murder” and I’m hoping it will get renewed!! It’s a very unique show and I always want more when it’s done for the week!!! Please don’t take it off–I love shows about the law!!!
i love this show!!! please renew it
