What’s This TV Show About?

Airing on The CW television network, the In the Dark TV show stars Perry Mattfeld, Casey Deidrick, Morgan Krantz, Marianne Rendon, Theodore Bhat, Matt Murray, and Ana Ayora. In the series, Murphy (Mattfeld) is a messy twenty-something who struggles on a daily basis to balance her random hookups, her hangovers, and her drug front. She’s also blind. In season four, Murphy must work closely with her ex, Max (Deidrick), her best friend Felix (Krantz), and his sister Lesley (Rendon) to keep herself out of jail for her crimes. But staying out of jail proves more difficult than expected when Josh Wallace (Bhat), a Chicago PD consultant and Murphy’s ex-fling, doubles down on his obsession with Murphy. Working with detectives Gene Clemens (Murray) and Sarah Barnes (Ayora), Josh focuses all his efforts on putting her back behind bars.
 

Season Four Ratings

The fourth season of In the Dark averaged a 0.04 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 294,000 viewers in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM). Compared to season three, that’s down by 36% in the demo and down by 19% in viewership. While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.
