The ratings for Nashville were down once again last season and they weren’t very good. With this season, ABC will have enough episodes for a good-sized syndication package. So, will this year be the end? Will this drama be cancelled or will it be renewed for a fifth season? Stay tuned.
The Nashville TV show continues to follow the lives and careers of country music superstars Juliette Barnes (Hayden Panettiere) and Rayna Jaymes (Connie Britton). The rest of the cast includes Charles Esten, Clare Bowen, Eric Close, Jonathan Jackson, Chris Carmack, Lennon Stella, Sam Palladio, Maisy Stella, Will Chase, and Oliver Hudson.
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 around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

What do you think? Do you like the Nashville TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a fifth season?
I too am finished with ABC. Nashville was one of the best shows on TV. You’ve lost a lot of fans.
Nashville is the best show on TV……can’t believe it is canceled! Look forward to Nashville every time it is on…..please don’t cancel it!!!!!!!
Please don’t cancel my favorite show Nashville.They a very few shows worth watching but this one has everything for everyone.It is great.
Nashville is one of the best tv series in years. ABC jumped the show arounf as far as scheduling consistency and people get frustrated as the network doesnt dedicate a firm schedule. ABC used to field wonderful tv series and latley has lost their way and a dedicated viewer in myself. I will not follow ABC any longer losing Nashville was the last straw.
I Love Nashville,This my favorite show on channel 9 to watch.Please don’t cancel my favorite show.They just aren’t enough adult shows unless you want to watch reatity tv and I don’t.
You need to do another season. So many story lines still out there. There is nothing else on ABC worth watching
Castle is gone , guess I b will have to turn to CBS.
WOW!! I watched this show every week. I LOVED it!!! SO sad it’s gone. They could have done at least one more season!!!! Now we will never know what happened 🙁 LOVE NASHVILLE!!!
Several friends and family watch and wait for this each week. Soon as it is over we are texting about the show. My cuz in Texas tease how this is the highlight of are week. There are so many shows that are not worth watching and then they cancel one of the best. So much for ABC. I plan to not watch anything on ABC no matter what they put on in the future.

I really can’t believe Nashville has been cancelled….this is one of the best shows on TV…..I’m not really sure how you actually get your ratings?! but I can assure you that alot of people I know that watch it are SHOCKED!!! Hopefully another network will pick it up?
I love Nashville! I have watched it from the very first episode, and have loved every minute. My mom also loves it, we call each other after it goes off to talk about it! Please someone bring it back!! It makes me sad to know that it’s cancelled
Please don’t cancel Nashville! I love this show and look forward to it every week. I love the characters and the music. It’s the only drama show that I watch. Please don’t take it away!
Wish this show wasn’t being canceled. There are so FEW shows I even care to watch! I have to record it most Weds. But always looked forward to watching it. Bad choice to cancel.
Nashville is one of two weekly shows that I look forward to. But this past season got too heavy. I either fell asleep or changed channels. The writing isn’t really what it used to be. There is so much potential but it gets weighed down in dumb drama…like suing parents?? Seriously? My parents were fiercely loving but, my God, if I were that spoiled my ass would have booted to the street and the locks changed. So I change the channel during those scenes. Too much irritating intensity. And what happened to bringing in fresh talent without so much baggage?… Read more »
