CBS hit paydirt with their NCIS spin-off, NCIS: Los Angeles. Will they find similar ratings success with NCIS: New Orleans? Will this one be a hit and be quickly renewed for a second season? Will it flop and be cancelled? Stay tuned.
NCIS: New Orleans revolves around the local field office in New Orleans, investigating criminal cases that affect military personnel. Special Agent Dwayne Pride (Scott Bakula) leads the team. The rest of the cast includes Lucas Black, Zoe McLellan, C. C. H. Pounder, Rob Kerkovich, and Paige Turco.
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.
1/12 update: Madam Secretary and two other shows have been renewed for a second season by CBS.
Final season averages: 2.08 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 15.26 million total viewers.

Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.
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: New Orleans TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I really, really dislike this show. The characters are such thinly-disguised ripoffs from the original NCIS, the actors are not likable for me, I cannot suspend my disbelief for them–unlike the original NCIS. I get angry when I watch NCIS New Orleans because it’s so inferior to the original. Have learned to appreciate NCIS Los Angeles by now, though it’s not as good, either. But New Orleans is just pitiful, IMO.
I love NCIS New Orleans. All the characters are great. MThe cast mesh well, their characters are very likeable and the story lines are interesting. Love laSalle’s accent. I hope it is renewed.
Please don’t cancel NCIS New Orleans, I love that show if not home to watch I record on DVR, please have a new season. Hate not seeing Lucas Black love his accent. Also 2nd season of NIGHTWATCH. those are two shows I hate to miss. WAITING IMPATIENTLY FOR SEASON 2!!!!!!!!!!!!
should be cancelled. Such a big disappointment with the the pre hype. Pride role is boring and LaSalle’s accent is simply dreadful. Neither have the ‘it’ factor for this show. Only redeeming roles are Doc Loretta and Brody. Also another plus Agent Abigail.
I agree with most of your points but LaSalles accent is a real accent. He can’t do anything about it as he refuses to tone down his accent.
I think that NCIS New Orleans needs to be renewed. This series completes my Tuesday evening. All the NCIS series are my favorites. I never miss an episode. I even watch all the reruns.
My favorite new show of the season, just ahead of “Forever” (RIP). BTW, if the demo and total viewers figures are correct, the “% demo change” figure for ep. 21, 4/28/15, is incorrect. Should be 3.8%. The total viewers “% mil change” (should be just “% change,” BTW) for that date is also incorrect. It should be 1.0%.
There was a problem in the formulas for that episode. Thanks for spotting it.
Thank you for all your good work. I appreciate this site!
Never miss an episode of NCIS New Orleans.. Please do not cancel this show.. Love all the actors and actresses. My Tuesday evening consist of NCIS with Gibbs and crew and then with NCIS New Orleans. I never make plans for anything on Tuesday evening even when it might be a rerun. Lets keep the good programs on the air. NCIS, NCIS Los Angels, CIS Cyber and NCIS New Orleans.
We love NCIS NO ! Christopher is my favorite ! He is such a hottie! We never miss a show !
