The King of Queens was a very successful sitcom for CBS 15 years ago. But times have changed and so have audiences. Will Kevin James’ new sitcom, Kevin Can Wait, also be a hit in the ratings for the network? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
Kevin Can Wait revolves around Kevin Gable (Kevin James), a newly retired police officer. After 30 years on the force, he’s looking forward to relaxing and spending quality time with his wife (Erinn Hayes) and their young kids (Mary-Charles Jones and James DiGiacomo). That plan goes awry when his elder daughter (Taylor Spreitler) and her fiance (Ryan Cartwright) move in. As a result, Kevin’s retirement dreams get put on hold. Kevin’s friends are played by Leonard Earl Howze, Gary Valentine, and Lenny Venito.
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.

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 Kevin Can Wait TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for second season?
There’s an error on the last day of the series the demographics show a increase 1.12 which is showing ration! if you look at the previous date episode it’s 1.20! Whoever did the statistics for this on this site they messed up please correct!
Oops Loved last season
Lived last season but definitely do not like this season! Cancel show!!!
I enjoyed last season and truly miss his wife. She really added to the show. This season is horrible. Hope it is replaced by “Man with a Plan”!!
Cancel. Its king of queens all over. Let it die
I think this show stinks. The writing is awful of the two shows and the time slide man with a plan had much better writers and was much more clever than Kevin can wait stupid stupid stupid
Totally agree with you man with a plan is a hell a lot better than this crap. Maybe CBS will smarten up and move Kevin can wait and hopefully eventually cancel it. They really really missed up the show I can’t see the thing recovering at all CBS really messed up.
I am really glad that Leah Remini has joined the cast. I think Erin Hayes is great, but not such great match for Kevin’s humor. She isn’t New York!, and I can’t imagine Kevin James from anywhere else! I love the pushy, city girl attitude that Remini is so good at protraying.
I wanted to cancel my OnePass on Tivo for season 2 as soon as I found out they were getting rid of Erinn Hayes, but I forgot. Because the first episode recorded I thought I would give it a chance and watch it but there are so many better shows to watch than this. I removed it from my list before it was even over. It was a mediocre show to begin with and Hayes was the only reason I kept watching it.
