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.

Please do not cancel your show Nashville. It has good music, great stars and good storylines..
There are only a couple shows my husband and I both like and Nasville is our favorite. Really cancelling? Can’t believe it. Don’t we have enough murder shows? This was a great show with real people. Keep t going.
This was my favorite TV show. I am so disappointed to see it end. Why it’s ending and dumb shows remain is beyond me. Such talented people are on Nashville and it’s a shame they will not be heard.
Don’t cancel Nashville!!!!!!!!!!! Please!!!!
This is one of the best shows on TV! It has a great story line and the music is fantastic. Please don’t cancel this show!!!
My daughter and I both love the show. It’s sad when there is a good show on, that the producers want to cancel. Not sure where they are getting their ratings from. Very touching with the problems that they show the people going through in their family life. Showing that no matter what type of life style you live everyone has their problems in life that are very similar.
Just heard the last show is May 25, I hope this is not so, it’s a great show, great writing!!! Awesome talented singer’s!! Big mistake Producers!!!

So upset this show is great I know a ton of people who watch why would they cancel??? I’m going to boycott ABC! They do this all the time.
CANCELLED??!! SERIOUSLY???!!! I just paid $90 on a ticket to see the cast of Nashville in concert 3 weeks ago in Clearwater, FL – they were fantastic!! What a talented group of entertainers!!

This season was a little slow. I attribute the slowness and poor ratings to the multitude of reasons that previous viewers listed in prior comments. The one thing that I haven’t seen mentioned… Read more »
