Though it hasn’t been a ratings success, ABC has kept Nashville on the air. Will the numbers continue to fall this season? Is there a chance that it could be cancelled or is it essentially guaranteed to be renewed for a fourth season (because of potential syndication profits)? We’ll have to wait and see.
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 Clare Bowen, Eric Close, Charles Esten, Sam Palladio, Jonathan Jackson, Chris Carmack, Lennon Stella, 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 the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
5/8 update: ABC has renewed Nashville for a fourth season.
Final season averages: 1.34 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 5.16 million total viewers.

Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.
For comparisons: The second season of Nashville averaged a 1.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 5.34 million total 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.
What do you think? Do you still like the Nashville TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a fourth season?


LOVE the show Nashville!!! please renew this for 2015-16!!!!one of the best shows on TV!!!!
What happened to Nashville??? I look forward to this show as it is the Best Show I have ever seen on TV. Please RENEW this show or at least finish a series and give us a happy ending… That would be the professional thing to do! We all care about and identify with these characters and we need to see the rest of this saga. Great show with so much talent!!!
Love it! Look forward to it every Wednesday.
My wife and I love the show, where is it?
sure take it off. EVERYTIME THERE IS FINALLY SOMETHING YOU LOOK FORWARD TO WATCH WITH OUT RAPES-KILLINGS-ZOMBIES OR SOME OTHER STUPID THING THE NET WORK GENIUSES TAKES IT OFF.
Love this show and have looked forward to “MY” TV night on Wed. evening! What happened – I’m really wanting to find out what’s going on??
Why is the show advertised & then pre-empted by some other show? We are soooo in tune with all the characters & it’s exasperating when we can’t see our favorite show on all of TV.
I certainly hope you go forward with the fourth season.
Thanks for reading my thoughts.
I watch Nashville all the time and I look forward to seeing it each week…..why the large breaks?? Please do not take it off the air when it’s just getting good again….
please renew Nashville and this season quit taking long breaks when just getting good!!!
I LOVE this show and can’t wait for the net episode each week. It is great to watch such a non violent program that also shows the challenges of real life. I also like all the original music that is performed. Please don’t cancel this program.
The music in “Nashville ” is great entertainment and the story line compelling. This season, however, seems tired and lacks excitement and the verve I have associated with it. The last 2Wednesdays have been a no go for “Nashville” and my hope for a resurgence of its former energy has been discouraged. Is there a future for “Nashville”?
I don’t know what show you are watching! NASHVILLE has been exceptionally awesome! The last episodes have been totally astonishing! The DEYNA scenes like OMG it’s moving what seems in the direction us NASHIES are wanting! Yes there is a feature for NASHVILLE why would you ask such a question?!?! True NASHIES don’t ask those kinda of questions, we just keep asking ABC to renew it! We are looking forward to season 10 and beyond!
