canceled + renewed TV shows - TV Series Finale

   

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit: Season 16 Ratings

Published: May 22, 2015

Law and Order SVU TV show on NBC: season 16While most other shows were down in the ratings year-to-year, Law & Order: SVU was up last season. Will that trend continue this season or will the numbers fall. How long can this NBC crime drama continue to be a ratings success? Could it surpass the original Law && Order? Cancel or renew for a 17th season? We’ll see.

Law & Order: SVU follows an elite squad of detectives who investigate sexually based crimes in New York City. This season, the cast includes Mariska Hargitay, Ice-T, Kelli Giddish, Danny Pino, and Raul Esparza.

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.

2/5 update: NBC has renewed this series for a 17th season for 2015-16. Details here.

Final season averages: 1.62 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 7.31 million total viewers.

Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page or view it here.

Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.

For comparisons: The 15th season of Law & Order: SVU averaged a 1.8 rating in the demo and 6.70 million 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.

How are your shows doing in the ratings? Check the current rankings:
A&E | ABC | AMC | Bravo | CBS | CMT | The CW | FOX | Freeform | FX | FXX
Hallmark | HBO | History | MTV | NBC | OWN | Showtime | Starz | Syfy | TBS
TNT | TV Land | USA Network | WGN America

What do you think? Do you still like the SVU TV series? Would you like to see it cancelled or renewed for 17th season?

Tucker and Olivia are the perfect match. As long as the intensity of their individual characters remains. Tucker kicking a** and taking no prisoners and Olivia being cool, calm and collective.
Some ideas bring back the wacko Gorden.
Ice T needs a better story line. I’d like to see him go deep undercover and thug it hardcore.
And never ever ever ever get rid of Carisi. His character has so much potentiometer. I liked his character better in the beginning though. When he had no filter.

Honestly, the show was amazing!! I mean that.. Once Christopher Meloni, Richard Belzer, B.D. Wong, and everyone else was done with it, I was too. Expect for Ice-t and Mariska Hargitay. Personally, I blame Mariska Hargitay for having the show cancelled. Plus, she’s so disrespectful for dissing Christopher for no reason. She doesn’t need to be in nothing no more.

I’m glad that SVU’s number are up, and was feeling a little disloyal because I was off watching Cookie, and watching SVU on VOD. Glad to see that Benson finally has a life, but she needs a friend, so bring back Tamara Tuney. Scripts are tight, but still miss the Fazekas and Butters touch. Darius Parker needs to come back one more time because this storyline feels unfinished, and needs to be completed with something better than how Nicole got done in on Criminal Intent.

I abosolutly love this show! I have been watching it for years I really hope they do season 17. I wish they would do an episode where Stabler makes an appearance. I really didn’t like how he was just ripped out of it.

He decided to leave after he asked for too much money and NBC refused. Not the show’s fault they had to go on without him. As far as I’m concerned, he doesn’t deserve a proper ending. So glad we got one with Amaro, but will miss him beyond belief next season…

The Stabler character wasn’t ripped our of the show, Christopher Meloni got greedy and refused to sign a new contract. Generally when this kind of problem has happened with other actors, Mr. Wolf has been known to kill of the character, much like the car explosion in New York Undercover, where two of the show’s main characters were killed off in a car explosion.

Personally the show is the best on TV…I love the actors…their personal life makes it more interesting….I hope the show continues. with the same characters, Mariska, ice-t, Danny Pino, and Kelli Kiddish, even the prosecuter…That ‘s just my two cents …But it’s a great show…..

I think the crossover episodes between Chicago Fire and Chicago P. D. Have brought renewed strength and intensity to SVU. Character development,which compliments the plot is sorely lacking in most scripted shows today. Chicago Fire is quite novel in this reect. If one doesn’t care for character development, there is always The Zombie , Vampires, Or Turtleman shows..

That’s what happened with Stabler in the first season, where it seemed as thoigh ten to fifteen minutes of the program was wasted on his family, and whole episodes later on. Poblem is Olivia only had a couple of dates inck sixteen years, and we just found out that Fin wasn’t homeless. Now that we know that the unit have a home life, it’s time to get back to stories without SVU relatives. Although, there needs to be one final Darius episode before the series ends.

please leave the show on.My wife and I both look forward to watching it. We’re sorry that the character of dective Stabler is no longer with the show. He was very good in the show along with Mariska Hagerty.
