Last season, many fans were concerned when CBS execs moved NCIS: Los Angeles to Monday nights. The ratings dropped by more than 34% but the network still renewed the series for a seventh season. How will it perform this time around? Will it be renewed for an eighth season or, is this the year that it’s cancelled? Stay tuned.
Based in the City of Angels, NCIS: Los Angeles follows the members of an elite division of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS), one that specializes in undercover assignments. This drama stars LL Cool J, Chris O’Donnell, Linda Hunt, Daniela Ruah, Eric Christian Olsen, Barrett Foa, Renée Felice Smith, and Miguel Ferrer.
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.
3/25 update: CBS has renewed this series and 10 others for the 2016-17 season. Details here.
5/3 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.

For comparisons: The sixth season of NCIS: Los Angeles averaged a 1.6 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 9.28 million total viewers.
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 like the NCIS: Los Angeles TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for an eighth season?
This cast is the BEST OF ALL THE NCIS SERIES!!! I would be devastated if you canceled NCIS LA. I am an educated professional and just love all the actors on this series. Since Michael Weatherly now has his own show & Cote de Pablo is gone I don’t even watch NCIS any more.
We are saddened by the death of Owen but his character can be replaced.
By the way, I love Michael Weatherly but Bull is a very weak show. After you have seen 2 or 3 episodes it just seems like “same old, same old”.
Renewed! Love the show and everyone that’s on the show!
