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?
I loved this show. Bring it back for another season.
Please, Please, Please renew this show. It is interesting, and just plain good, good, good. I can’t understand why renew low rating shows and then a really good entertainer like this one has to be cancelled. Is somebody being paid under the tale to renew a show. Thank You and again, please renew THIS PROGRAM.
YES, Please bring back King and Maxwell. I love the books and loved the TV series!
