Is there a future for Kevin (Probably) Saves the World? Are you watching the ABC TV show? Do you think the network should change the timeslot for the low-rated series?
The comedy-drama, which currently airs on Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET/PT, centers on Kevin Finn (Jason Ritter), a selfish and materialistic man who must commit acts of acts of kindness to save the world. The cast also includes JoAnna Garcia Swisher, Kimberly Hébert Gregory, Chloe East, J. August Richards, Dustin Ybarra, and India de Beaufort.
Since its October debut, Kevin (Probably) Saves the World has really struggled in the ratings. So far, season one is averaging a 0.72 rating in the 18-49 demo and only 3.029 million viewers, making it one of ABC’s lowest-rated series for the 2017-2018 season.
However, despite low ratings, the show seems to be popular with viewers. Kevin (Probably) Saves the World is currently one of the top-rated ABC shows in our viewer rankings. So what’s the problem?
Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET/PT have been a trouble spot for ABC for several years. Many TV series have held the timeslot and have been cancelled after one short season. They including Combat Hospital, Killer Women, Of Kings and Prophets, Wicked City, Forever, Lucky 7, Detroit 1-8-7, and Mind Games.
Do think ABC should save Kevin (Probably) Saves the World by changing it to a better timeslot? When would you air it? Is it a better show than the ratings seem to indicate? Tell us what you think.
Kevin Probably is an incredible show. Amazing acting, incredible writing and it’s such a positive and touching show. The show deserved an earlier timeslot since the beginning. Jason Ritter is doing an exceptional job. #RenewKevinProbably
This show is great!! It can make me laugh, and make me cry. All the characters are awesome, too. Not that my comment will help anything, but ABC please keep this show running. I look forward to another season.
I don’t think there are enough people in the world to recommend this wonderful show to. Kevin (Probably) Saves the World is truly uplifting, and if there’ s one thing we so desperately need today, it’s that. An earlier time slot would absolutely garner better ratings. A show like this, with this much heart, deserves the 8:00 p.m. spot. ABC needs to wise up and realize the potential for this gem.
This is my favorite show of the year hands down. Im not sure about the timeslot, but I do know that they did not market it correctly so people didnt try it out. Also, the first few episodes were overly silly. After that, they finally balanced out the humor with the seriousness & built the characters. I almost stopped watching it after the first couple of episodes, but glad I stuck with it. The few people that I know who watch the show love it & say they had the same experience where they had to get past the first… Read more »
Heck YES it needs to change time slots! It’s a freaking family friendly show that comes in at 10pm! It needs to bump up to 8pm and offer families a more reasonable time. The show is adored… the viewers want to see it. It’s the network that needs to give in a chance! It’s in a death spot currently!
I love this show but cannot stay up to watch it on TV and have to catch up online. I would love to be able to watch it with my family but we are all sound asleep by the time it comes on.
My kid’s love the show too, so we end up catching it on demand. Too late for a school night. Please move it to an earlier spot, so our family can show our support, and watch it together!
I know ABC was going away from scripted drama on Sundays but this show would fit well at 8pm on a Sunday….or even an hour or two earlier (but I don’t foresee ABC moving it to an earlier slot during the week).
Yes please keep it. Why not anther night. I love this show!!
Kevin Probably, is one of the BEST shows, currently on network tv!! The cast is amazing, and the storyline is heartfelt, genuine, and uplifting. PLEASE do not cancel this show!!!
This needs to be on earlier so more families can watch. It is a wonderful show & Kevin Ritter is such a great reminder of his dad’s comic chops. This show needs its world saved!
Great family show. Jason Ritter is wondeful. Don’t cancel it please.
I have to agree with the crowd; our whole family loves “Kevin (Probably) Saves the World”, and we would absolutely love to see it a little earlier. We don’t have DVR, so us adults bite the bullet and stay up late to watch it when it airs, and then we show the kids later on via the ABC website. Been telling anyone who’ll listen about how great this show is!
Please Save Kevin! This is my favorite new show of the season. It’s original and heartwarming. Very family friendly. It really doesn’t fit in the late time slot, though. I will watch it whenever it airs!
It should be moved to a different time slot. people love it and success shouldn’t only be based on rates, but everything as a whole. It has changed my lifeee and it is such a beautiful story that more people need to see develop.
