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?
Enough of the depressed -guilt ridden story line. Can we get back to what made this show good and not have every character miserable or messed up. Enough already. I love this show and all the actors, but this is just ridiculous.
give it a rest. I think the writers are very capable to do there job. why not just enjoy the show. it is one of the best shows this year so far. imo.
One of the best tv series..love this so much..nashville till season 10!!!
One of the best tv series so far..nashvill till season 10!!!!
thank you for bringing it back
Yes yes please bring back Nashville I love this show
You should let the viewers know that Nashville is coming back by advertising it on T V or else it won’t get a good rating. People forget about the shows because so many go off at the same time. It the same thing that happened to Dallas I didn’t even know it came back on until I was to late and many people were really mad so don’t do the same thing.
Really enjoy this programme and look forward to watching it each week
Nashville is awesome renew for season 4
I agree keep Nashville on..also Keep Decon alive we want to see a wedding.
I absolutely love Nashville! It is my favorite tv show. Please keep it on the air. To many tv reality shows.Love the music on the show. I feel that there are to many breaks between episodes and that makes it hard for people to folllow.
Yes you are right to many breaks between episodes. Love the show
I love Nashville. Please keep the show! There are too many reality shows. This is unique and great to watch!!
Please keep the show! I love the combination of music and tv. So much great music has come out of the show.
I love this series. But I can’t imagine the size of the payroll this series commands. Incredible as to where they get all these great songs. Rayna’s two daughters I think are some of the best singers on the show. They’re also Sisters in real life too.
I don’t think the latest series is as good as the first two. There were usually at least two songs in each episode but now I feel that I have never heard a song from start to finish and I find it quite frustrating not to mention the fact that it is just becoming another soap opera.
your one reason they want to cut the show. if you cant see the benefits of the series you should be watching something else/ you want music watch idol. most people can relate to the shows content.
Nashville is my favorite TV show and I hope it will be renewed for season 4!!!!!! I love it!!!!
I think nashville should stay . I love that show so much . If not they should make it a Netflix series . I would hate to see this show cancelled .
