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.

What do you think? Do you like the Intelligence TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Keep it! The chemistry is amazon between Josh and Meghan! Sure some factual inaccuracies are present, but really what show doesn’t? It’s a show! A lot of people love it and there’s not many good shows on anymore! Renew it!
I LIKE this show but I only get to see it when my family is out or Blacklist isn’t on. My family likes Intelligence too but they were already hooked on Blacklist. I hope they give this another chance in a better time frame.
I think Intelligence is a great show with a thoughtless, ill-conceived schedule placement. Why, unless you want the show to fail or are the type who would pound the square peg into the round hole, would you schedule Intelligence against established shows of a similar feel? It’s simply not Intelligent. You can’t count the Olympic non-competition from The Blacklist as THE chance for exposure. People actually did watch The Olympics. People who regularly tune in to the other shows and would love Intelligence, simply may not have seen it. Or they don’t have a DVR, or use the uncounted, arcane… Read more »
I think the cast is one of the best on tv, I think an emotional interest is needed, to bring out both of the character and Josh H is great in his role. I think you should have a 2 part episode where he get captured and again has his memory changed and special agent needs to save or kill him. Episode could have multiple twists with a new love interest with a Bad girl? But gets saved in the end. Please save the show.
This show has to go!!! Its Bizzare.
That Marg ?? is so annoying and a bad actress that makes the show not work watching. Change her and maybe the show has a chance of being tolerable.
They should open up the time slot for something better.
Seriously? Well some people prefer tea to coffee, but most people prefer coffee. Marg Helgenberger is great! She has grown as an actress, from China Beach, through CSI (do you really think she would have lasted years on CSI if she weren’t a really good actress?). I don’t think you’re being objective, and I’m not saying this as a personal attack. Whether onscreen or in real life, some people just irk you. There isn’t necessarily a valid reason for it, they just do. A competent critic recognizes and is able to separate personal bias from valid, provable points of contention.
RENEW IT! Seriously, it’s a pretty damn good show!
Please renew the show! I love it! And even though there are some plot holes, I still think there is a lot to build on too. I love Gabriel and Riley’s backstories, and their chemistry is amazing. Would really like to see some more!
please renew the show, i luv it, it would suck if cbs cancelled it. =(
Love the show!
Great cast and well-written.
Please renew.
Really like show but why do they have to play music so loud especially when they’re talking sounds like a commercial!
I like the show. Realistic or not is has a great cast and an interesting episode-by-episode story. Definitely keep it.
Pull the plug and let it die
I am not a scientist but I can see the loopholes in the logic of the show. Of course, it’s not realistic…
But I still like it. The cast is good and has good dynamic. I would really like to see the show unfold and explore the link between man and technology. Even with the flawed logic of the functioning of the chip, it could potentially touch upon some interesting matters.
Some one please Kill this show! I am a Medical Lab guy, with vast IT experience. To say that the writing for this show is the worst and stupidest thing I have ever seen on tv is an understatement! The story is so full of plot holes and simple stupidity! Do they think that everyone watching is just so stupid as to think any of this is possible! Come on I know it is a TV show and it is supposed to be for entertainment only! But at least try to make it somewhat believable! Lets us look at the… Read more »
lol, have you seen Young Frankenstein, Doctor Who, Battlestar Gallactica (the remake), The Matrix, Terminator, anything with The Muppets? Perhaps you are so wrapped up in a factual reality that you cannot enjoy fiction which has any material shared with your career. You are probably good at your job, and have an ability to work within a narrow focus. But enjoying fiction requires the ability to suspend disbelief. No, Muppets aren’t really separate, sentient life forms. Baron Frankenstein really didn’t animate dead body parts, and so on. As for The Matrix, no one ever offered me the choice of the… Read more »
Love the series. Would hate to see it cancelled.
Thee cancellation clock started ticking on this show from the second episode. Only a matter of weeks before it gets the hook.
