Airing on Sunday nights, The Last Man on Earth has never been a hit in the ratings and the numbers keep dropping. Will they keep falling? Will the FOX show be cancelled or is it essentially guaranteed to be renewed for a fourth season so there will be enough episodes for a syndication package? Stay tuned.
On The Last Man on Earth, a deadly virus has devastated the planet and Phil Miller (Will Forte) believes he’s the last human alive. Phil eventually finds other survivors and he ends up being alternatingly elated and miserable. What will happen next? The rest of the cast includes Kristen Schaal, January Jones, Mel Rodriguez, Mary Steenburgen, and Cleopatra Coleman.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
5/8 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.

For comparisons: The second season of The Last Man on Earth averaged a 1.15 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.75 million total viewers.
Note: Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like The Last Man on Earth TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled instead of renewed for a fourth season?
5/10 update: FOX has renewed The Last Man on Earth for a fourth season. Details here.
Finish the season at least! Don’t leave us hanging that’s not fair my husband and I enjoy the show.
I love this show! I hope season 4 comes out soon! I loved that it was refreshing and did not cuss every breath and great comedy!
This is one of my favorite shows and I binged watched all 3 seasons in just a couple days. Please keep it around it’s hikeruous and something different than most shows out there.
My partner and I did the same thing…..we love it!!
I like The last man on earth, I like to see it go to season 4,very funny, different kind of show, refreshing from anything else.
I can and will cancel my local fox station very easily from my viewing line up, I can block the programming completely 100% . I’ll pass it along to the local affiliate. booya!
Keep last man on earth only thing I like on fox
I love this show. Please keep it running.
Me and my husband love !!! This show but just started watching it and binged like crazy to catch up to the third season! It can not end yet there’s too much to be explained still and lots of room for growth in the characters stories. Please keep producing the enjoyable fun and very good show!! It’s too bad there isn’t a way to gain ratings from viewers like me.
Please continue I love this show and have to know what happens to all of them
I love The Last Man on Earth. I would be devastated if they cancelled it. I am a fan all the way from Australia. I discovered it only this year and have been absolutely hooked since. Will forte and the team of writers are absolutely brilliant. I find it to be a very unique show with quality actors and the show always manages to crack me up. I hope there will be many more seasons to come! 🙂
This show got off to a good start. The writing was humorous, acting genuine, and scenes were surprisingly unpredictable. Unfortunately, it seems that the writers and the actors are ready to “fade to black”. It’s SOOO predictable and tired!! Please, put this creature out of our misery! The actors in this show are above this sad excuse for a television show!
I feel its the time (9:30 PM) there are many shows on from 9 to 10 PM people will watch rather than a little half hour show, plus they only have like 3 or 4 weeks then it stops for the season.. other than that I enjoy watching it and would like to see it continue..hopefully they will make the seasons longer than 4 weeks..
Love the show, hope they renew it a fourth season. Tandy is a good character, he is starting to show a little more heart..
i like this show except for one thing. all the characters are great except will forte. his character tandy is the stupidest role in tv history. he makes the show hard to watch. makes it stupid. too bad. great idea
You’re so dead on right about that. The show succeeds in spite of Tandy. Someone on that show needs to beat the heck out of him and tell him to stfu up for 5 minutes. He’s like one of those characters from SNL that is okay for a 5 minute skit but someone tried to make an entire movie about him.
He makes the show what it is. A comedy. I find his character hilarious and if he decides to no longer be the main character (which he won’t) I don’t know if i would continue watching.
That is the whole show. He is a dumb ass really wanting to get better. He is the show and he is awsome!
GET RID OF THE EYEBROWS! (or kill us already!)
I agree, tandy is so irratating his chacter makes the whole show bad
My daughter and I love this show.
