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?

Please leave Nashville alone. it is the one thing I look forward to in the week. I for one am getting sick and tired of my favorite shows being cancelled because I am not in the demographic age (73) We enjoy a lot of shows that get cancelled for the same reason, Do the sponsors not realize that we seniors have more disposable income?
Well said!!

PLEASE PLEASE don,t cancelle this series!!! It is the highlite of my week. It.s a GREAT show. And especially now, with Decan,s cancer, Why can,t Maddie give the transplant? She is his daughter. And why do they skip so many weeks? It drives me crazy waiting for the next episode!!! It might have better ratings if it ran EVERY WEEK!!!!!
Love this show, the cast & I’m not a big country music fan, but still love the show!!
Perhaps ratings should be included for other than the 18-49 year age group. I’m age 61.

Nashville should close-up-shop. It’s made it’s run.
Juliette (HP) should get ready for some new work..

We don’t want to see nor read anything bad that you have to say about Nashville… Nashville is an amazing show; and it needs to renewed for a 4th season and more seasons after that!! #NashvilleGetsUs! So keep your rude comments to yourself!
