The neXt TV series was expected to launch in early 2020 but was delayed until Fall 2020 due to the pandemic. The FOX show now has less competition than it would in a typical season. Could this play to its favor and help bring in better-than-expected ratings? Will neXt be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
An action-thriller series, the neXt TV show stars John Slattery, Elizabeth Cappuccino, Jason Butler Harner, Fernanda Andrade, Eve Harlow, Aaron Moten, Michael Mosley, Evan Whitten, and Gerardo Celasco. The story revolves around Silicon Valley pioneer Paul LeBlanc (Slattery) who built a fortune and his legacy on his world-changing innovations. After discovering that one of his own creations — a powerful artificial intelligence called “neXt” — might spell doom for humankind, Paul tried to shutter the project, only to be kicked out of the company by his own brother (Harner). When a series of unsettling tech mishaps points to a potential worldwide crisis, LeBlanc joins forces with Special Agent Shea Salazar (Andrade) and her unique and talented team. Now, they are the only ones standing in the way of a potential global catastrophe, fighting an emergent superintelligence that will deploy the immense knowledge it has gleaned from the data all around us to recruit allies, turn people against each other, and eliminate obstacles to its own survival and growth.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

What do you think? Do you like the neXt TV series on FOX? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
*10/31/20 update: neXt has been cancelled by FOX so, there won’t be a second season.
The movie was very good we people of Uganda we are waiting for season 2
Renew this show. Hopefully another network will pick it up
An excellent show. They always cancel the good shows and renew the bad ones. Sorry to see it end. That’s what FOX is good for.
Would like to see Next renewed. Just finished episode 10 and the show grabbed my attention the longer it went on. Come on Fox!
An excellent well thought out, addresses a real current emerging concern. Loved the show! It was poorly advertised (none that I saw) and finding it on Cogeco cable wasn’t easy.
I am disappointed that they canceled this show so early on. I don’t think it was advertised very well and I only knew that it even existed because my sister told me about it. I really enjoyed the first two episodes and was looking forward to the rest of the season and I had hoped that it would be renewed. Please reconsider.
Really enjoyed the first 2 episodes but was wondering when rest of season will air.
Oh hum, another super-intelligent computer/system that hates us meat bags.
The coolest part of the first ep was the fact that the husband of the FBI agent drives a 1968 Mustang fastback.
right, reminded me a little of person of interest, but not nearly as good
