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?
Please don’t cancel Nashville. It’s a wonderful program with a captivating storyline and the music is a true country music fans dream show. All of my friends and neighbors watch Nashville and a young couple in our neighborhood recently named their newborn son “Deacon” (I’m sure they aren’t the only ones). I don’t know who is gathering the data on the shows ratings, but someone has missed the mark on this one. We need more shows like this, not less. The TV channels are filled with reality shows, guns-gangs and violence or sports. Thanks, but NO THANKS…….I want MY NASHVILLE… Read more »
One of the best shows I’ve enjoyed watching in a long time. I really hope it gets picked up by another station. It has more going for it than a lot of the other shows on air today.
They need to get new producers on ABC because they don’t know great shows when they see them!!!!!!!!!!!! canceling Nashville was not a smart idea. I will not watch whatever they put in its place.
I am livid that ABC has decided to cancel one of the best series I have faithfully watched in years. The talent on this show is awesome! I feel like I have been treated to a live concert every week. Hell of a lot better entertainment than all these stupid reality shows! Please oh please let another channel pick this up! If not, ,.I wish the best of success to all the cast performers! Hope you will have another cast concert on tv sometime!
Yet another decent family drama show cancelled I loved Nashville my favourite show so tired of these networks cancelling great shows in favour of more super hero/villain/ crime / unnatural tv shows
Great show. It was nice to watch a show that has true talent.
Really hoping Nashville doesn’t get cancelled! It’s a great show with a lot of very talented people. We watch it faithfully!
I am so disappointed that ABC has decided to cancel Nashville. It was worth watching for the music but there was a lot of drama that went along with it as well. A soap opera basically! This was one of my favorite shows to watch because I dislike so many of the reality type shows so ABC just lost my viewership since the other show I watched “DWTS ” just finished as well. I hope someone else picks Nashville up and continues the storyline.
I love the show
I don’t understand! Everyone I know watches and loves this show! Please DON’T cancel Nashville!
Nashville is one of the best shows on broadcast t.v.! The news of it’s cancellation is shocking. The writing, acting, characters and music are exceptional. I am so disappointed in ABC and hope that the show might be brought back.
Please don’t cancel “Nashville”!!!!! It is the best show on TV by far
I love the show and talk about it with friends and dvr other shows so I can watch please bring it back…..
Please don’t cancell Nashville. need to find out about Joeite.
What kind of series finale was that? So just left to assume Juliet is dead??!! Anyway,now I have NOTHING to look forward to every wk every season! I mean come on,Brain dead?! ABC is going down the tubes! Couldn’t even leave one decent show on for some of your most faithful viewers on a Wedns.night? Some people don’t want to see the president of our country having an affair and letting his family fall apart to get it. And not to mention all the violence. Anyway,just done with ABC!
