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?
Keep it but don’t involve the stars in a romance. Too often that kills the sow.

Love,love King and Maxwell. What a role model for young women to see an attractive woman who can take care of herself. Interesting supportive cast with Edgar showing autism In a positive role . Please keep it!!
Keep King and Maxwell. It’s interesting, different and fun to watch. I love Edgar .
Keep it. I don’t think the writer’s gave the show anything but average storytelling. The stars have good chemistry and the supporting cast (except for the FBI guys) was interesting if a little strange. Michael O’Keefe got better as the season went along but having the FBI around all the time weakens the range of stories they could be telling.
Keep it
