Hostages was a big ratings disappointment for CBS. They’re hoping that their new Intelligence series will perform much better. Will it be cancelled or become a hit? Stay tuned!
On Intelligence, Gabriel Vaughn (Josh Holloway) is a high-tech intelligence operative who’s been enhanced with a super-computer microchip in his brain. It allows him to be connected directly into the global information grid. Other castmembers include Marg Helgenberger, Meghan Ory, Michael Rady, John Billingsley, P. J. Byrne, Tomas Arana, Lance Reddick, and Peter Coyote.
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 — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
5/10 update: Intelligence has been cancelled by CBS after 13 episodes and one season.
Final season averages: 1.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 6.85 million total viewers.

Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Intelligence TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Please do not cancel this program. It will catch on. The relationship between the two characters just blossoming into friendship. Gabriel’s growth as a human being is just starting. The action, the plot all of it is so intelligent.
Please save the program. Often Wednesdays and Saturdays have little to offer, Saturdays most of all. The story line is great, and the actors just fine. Save it.
My wife and I really like this show. But the day and time are the pits! Really enjoy it when they replay it on Saturday night (they did that a couple of times). Saturday night is a wasteland for television.
Sure hope this makes a second season!
Jake Who? Just like I’ve asked Chuck Who? I thought of Steve Austin (the super-duper one, not the WWE one) when I saw this show coming out (on imdb on my iPhone). They should’ve kept it where it was on Tuesdays. If your favorite restaurant moves, and you think it’s just closed, and you hate going downtown (which means do not own a TV anymore), then you’ll go home and cook (stream it) or someplace else and eat (iTunes perhaps). I thought it was gone. Well, it might be NOW because they moved it to another night. Boneheads. I realize… Read more »
Men dislike “Sawyer” cause he’s not that good of an actor. and we don’t give him extra points for eye candy like some women do. (and men do with certain actresses who can’t act but have “other qualities”)
I am loving this show. It got off track a bit with the storyline of his wife but I understand it was about establishing his character. Please keep this program on. Josh Holloway and Marg Helgenberger are two of my favorites.
Second Season!
I’m loving it. Great actors, great lines, great plot
Hope it becomes a hit
what about episode 4? new update please?!
Almost 54% drop in demo and 63% in audience from week one?
Just shows how weak this show really is – completely unable to engage an audience through anything other than curiousity or the lack of choice. Run against repeats or comedies it did good numbers, but against new episodes of Castle or The Blacklist it died on its ass.
Another week with a significant drop and the writing will be on the overly elaborate, totally unecessary virtual wall.
It was a good show and what made the show was Josh Holloway but there have been too many shows similar to this with the same storyline but different characters. I will watch it but don’t see it lasting long just like many other shows I liked.
This show insulted my intelligence. Bad acting, bad writing, bad plot. I do plan on watching this again. I never cared much for ‘Sawyer’ on Lost; my mind hasn’t changed since watching him as the male lead.
Meh… There was a lot of action, but it all happened before I cared or knew anything about any of the characters. Honestly, it is a lot like many of the other shows out there. It reminded me of Human Target with the addition of a quirky lab tech (e.g. Abby on NCIS or the lab techs in CSI). I personally won’t search this show out.
An old idea; same basic premise as Jake 2.0 (2003) but now the “hero” is ex Delta Force Tier One; apparantly revived just to use some nice (and some very bad) effect shots. The Secret Service agent is all kinds of cliches, the over the top super agency is super powerful, under staffed – the guy who metaphorically changes the oil also fills in at satellite retasking, and to cap it of, utterly incompetant – they only grabbed the one bad guy at the end, let the traitor slip away and apparantly wheel out the comatose Chinese super agent in… Read more »
Hostages was way better than Intelligence. Hope it returns. This new one is just awful in my opinion.
It was up against Justified in some areas….So, that may of taken some “watcher” away. I have it in the queue to watch today….I think it looks fantastic…great actors and concept..I hope it is given a chance…Sadly in this day and age, it doesn’t matter how good a show is…It is here today and gone tomorrow…
