Steven Weber and Fran Drescher have each had long careers and starred in numerous TV shows. Some series have run for many seasons while others have been cancelled after just one or two. How will Indebted, their new NBC show, perform in the ratings? Will Indebted be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
A family sitcom that was created by comic Dan Levy, the Indebted TV show stars Adam Pally, Abby Elliott, Jessy Hodges, with Steven Weber and Fran Drescher. Young parents Dave (Pally) and Rebecca (Elliott) are ready to reclaim their life after years of diapers and sleepless nights with their young kids. However, things take an unexpected turn when Dave’s parents, Stew (Weber) and Debbie (Drescher), show up unannounced. Thanks to mishandling their finances, the couple’s broke and they need help paying down a sizable debt.
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.

*6/16/20 update: Indebted has been cancelled by NBC so there won’t be a second season.
Not good enough to remain viable. It just doesn’t click in spite of some good cast members.
I love Indebted. I am a big Fran Drescher fan, still watch The Nanny. I watched Happily Divorced, which was also a great show, until that was cancelled. I’m sick of all these hospital shows and cop shows. We need a little humor in our lives. Please keep this on and maybe some more shows like this.
Trash
I’ve loved Fran Drescher ever since she was on “The Nanny” (I still watch reruns) and have watched her sadly short-lived shows (“Life with Fran” and “Happily Divorced”) she’s done since then. After having seen the first 6 episodes, I’ve concluded that this one will also be short-lived. The cast isn’t strong enough and doesn’t at all click with each other. In addition, they put too much emphasis on their lines (no natural flow) which makes everything more awkward than it already is. I was expecting a lot from Fran, but she fails to stand out…then again no one does… Read more »
I would love to watch Indebted, however I don’t care for Will & Grace. I always forget to turn it to NBC at 9 Central Time.
If it were preceded by a better show, or moved to a different date it may be more successful. It just doesn’t seem to fit where they put it.
Not much good about this show. Very poor casting, writing and especially directing. It is so over acted. Who is directing these actors. Fran Drescher is just irritating. And I used to really like her but she’s just obnoxious here.
Ugh.
please cancel indebted, it is so horrible. Not even a slight smile the entire wasted 20 minutes. Bad writing, horrendous acting, and the 1970’s model of sitcoms done poorly.
