Tonight, TNT airs the last episode of King & Maxwell’s first season. Should the cop series return for a second season or should it be cancelled instead? Is it a ratings hit? Cancel or keep it?
King & Maxwell takes place in Washington, DC and revolves around a pair of former Secret Service agents (Jon Tenney and Rebecca Romijn) who’ve become private eyes. Co-stars in the series include Ryan Hurst, Michael O’Keefe, and Chris Butler.
The show debuted on June 10th to 3.52 million viewers with a 0.6 rating in the 18-49 demographic. That was a very positive start. Viewership fell 21% in week two but climbed back upward in later weeks.
A couple weeks ago, King & Maxwell nearly matched its premiere with 3.39 million and a 0.5 demo rating.
While the new show isn’t as popular as Major Crimes (4.82 million) or Rizzoli & Isles (5.66 million), it’s nearly matching fellow TNT dramas Falling Skies and Perception (3.53 million apiece).
Though they haven’t announced it yet, I suspect that TNT will bring King & Maxwell back for a second season.
But, what do you think? Does King & Maxwell deserve a second season? Or, should it be cancelled to make way for something else? Cancel or keep?
The best new show on TV. The cast is outstanding…love the office assistant. Hope this gets renewed.

Absolutely. Love the plot twists, the off-beat characters and the multiple story lines.
loved the show keep it
Love the show. It will be wrong to cancel it. The show has a lot of potential. The King and Maxwell are beautiful characters with explosive pairing. Edgar character is quite interesting with his nerdy look and demeanor. I sense a HIT pilot. TNT don’t blow this one. Frankly, I was more enthused watching K&M than Major Crimes. Good luck and PLEASE go on with this show.
Great Show, I miss it already
Good show and enjoyable viewing. Better than the NBC and other channels like them!! Keep it coming.
Love the show!!! I didn’t care for Rebbeca’s character at first but I like her better in the later episodes. Please keep the show and keep Edgar in it. He really helps the show!!!
