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?
They have to keep it. I love the shows mentioned though I have never watched Perception. Not really into that type of show.
The rest are top notch though.
This is a keeper
Great potential! Keep
The show has an appealing, unconventional way to tell a story, manages to combine a season’s arc with standalone episodes, features a good cast with chemistry and adds quite some humour and wit into the mix; I certainly hope that King & Maxwell gets renewed.
keep it
Keep it, live the show
Keep it
Definitely keep it. Awesome show.
Keep it i love this show.
keep it
I love Major Crimes, perception, rizzoli & isles & king and maxwell. I woukd love to see a special appearance by Chief Johnson on major crimes. Perception has a unique twist to it, although every show in T.V today is either cops, fbi or medical. I was saf they cancelled Monday Mornings. I hope my fav shows stay on for a good while.
Keep it.
glad to see David Baldacci on TV – yes good plots – can’t wait to see what happens next. Got us hanging on a cliff til next year Keep it
KEEP IT!
Keep it. Love this show along with Major Crimes and Perception.
