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.

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?
My husband and myself think it should be renewed just because it is laugh out loud funny. It is nice to just forget about the depressing National News . It is just lite and humorous!
Do you guys really think someone with pull is looking at your comments? Anyways I guess I will say my opinion since the vocal minority seems to be here to show the otherside of things. This show is what tv has been needing if I were an advertiser with a family product this is a show I would want it to be associated with. I like it because I can watch it with my mother and sadly there are little shows on right now that are just funny and mild mannered. The vocal minority would have you believe Amy Schumer… Read more »
This show isn’t great or even good. It’s tolerable nobody cares about. The setting is most people making comments you don’t even watch two shows on TV watching on the Internet for free. Do you even give readings to the programming is there watching three online somewhere. That’s the real facts.
then why do you even watch it
Why? This comment?
because like judging and hating on this show like i know people miss King of Queens and they want to see more Leah Remini (even though she is gonna be on the finale) but like it was only their first season and now that they are renewed hopefully they will have more funny material. That’s why it is this comment
Not everybody think this is worth a prime time top time.it wouldn’t last it it was on any other time.The show is turtle like tooth yacking pain. He isn’t funny as others in it’s pairs.anyone can do what he does……nothing special.that why people are angry, and disappointed and fusterated about this actor. K o q was great special this is garbage.
Sorry, but it sucks!
The last five weeks have been brutal. Guess people are finding greener pastures.
{please bring back King of Queens with the original cast if possible. Carrie’was more his type and sooo funny.. Chale is only funny person on
KCW
if you want to watch King of Queens it is on every night or day in syndication and TV Land
Chale is so boring. There are numerous problems with this show (plots, supporting cast, jokes) but the biggest problem is KCW being compared with KOQ. It’s not even close.
OUCH the rating are dropping! if gat more bad how can they do a season 2.
well it got renewed
I know that. But the problem is that was before the thinking of the ratings at this rate I wouldn’t be surprised if they pull the show if it gets any worse. The surprise that CBS renewed it so quickly without letting the show run little further before Committing to another series year. That’s a fatal mistake by CBS network.
I absolutely love this show and hope it will be renewed for season 2
Never comment usually, but gotta say that this show is growing on me, (is it wrong that I actually find Chale funny but annoying ?!) Overall,es I do want a season 2, even if it’s just to see the wedding. 3.5/5 star for me!
I understand peoples sense of humor’s are different however I do not find the show funny at all and i did try to give it a chance i watched two and a half episodes and cannot understand how anybody else would find it funny. I know if I don’t want to watch I can just turn off but in my opinion it needs to be cancelled.
Rating really don’t as good seem. 2 weeks reruns and new show rating are not even close to what prime time spot should be. It doesn’t look as good rating keep going down. Not bash this but shows in this time slot should better what it’s is now.
Jerry Stiller was the star of King of Queens. Any King of Queens episode without him was weak. Writers take note: the humor on Kevin Can Wait is LAME.
This show is funny! LOVE IT!
Cancel
Time it’s on it should have higher rating this! Look it’s dropping not sure how long network continue with this. Less then 1.50 more like 1.40 is not were first slot of prime time rating should be at.
If Kevin James wants to advance his career and actually have a funny show he would stay as far away from Adam Sandler as possible. Any input from Sandler is going to take ratings to the bottom right by all of Sandler latest attempts to be funny.
Played out retreated gags are not going to cut it.
