Telly’s Take
The fourth season premiered with much lower numbers than last year and the averages are also lower. However, The Librarians is still doing pretty well when compared to the other TNT original series. I’d usually predict another renewal, but TNT has been repositioning itself as an edgier network, and I’m not quite sure The Librarians is still a good fit.

RENEWED! There are oh so many crime, villains and weapon stories out there, we SO need this fantasy/history/humor-mix, ABSOLUTELY!
Please renew! This show is awesome! I know a lot of people would like it to continue on!
I hope that The Librarians is renewed for 5th season. I love the intelligent dialogue and the fun stories!
Pleas renew #TheLibrarians, it the only show on television that is cleverly written and fantastically cast. TNT we WANT and NEED season 5
This is by far one of the best shows on television. It’s well written, well acted, and the storylines are still fresh and interesting. Please renew it for another season (or 10)!
Love, Love, Love the Librarians. Creative scripts, Amazing actors. Please renew this show.

Season Four Ratings The fourth season of The Librarians is averaging a 0.30 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 1.51 million viewers. Compared to season three, that’s down by 36% and 16%, respectively. Learn how The Librarians stacks up against other TNT TV shows. Maybe if you take into consideration that is was previously being aired on a Sunday compared to being moved to a Wednesday this being a factor of the numbers being down. Doesn’t mean diddly squat. There are dvr’s to record & watch later. Just because it’s not being watched “live” doesn’t mean it’s “not” being watched.… Read more »
I Absolutely Love and Adore the Librarians. It is very entertaining and can be enjoyed by all ages. I would love to see TNT renew it for more seasons. It’s one of the best shows on tv right now.
One of the few fun family shows left where the good guys win. Please don’t cancel.
This is just a fun, creative show that gets better every season amid a collection of dark, weird shows. It’s good fun and needs to continue to combat zombie fatigue!!
Hopefully Renewed! One of the few quality shows that a family can watch together. TNT seems to cancel good shows after 5 seasons regardless of ratings or popularity.
Love it. Renew!!
I love watching The Librarians. The blend of action, drama and comedy is lovely.
“Please keep the show going. Even though, I don’t have cable, I watch it on Hulu and it’s one of my favorites, up there with Supernatural.” (From my son, who doesnt have Facebook) “I love the historical context of the creatures and other facts, as well.”
