Tonight marks the the third season finale of The Night Shift on NBC. The series has beaten the cancellation odds in the past and been renewed. Should it return for a fourth season?
The Night Shift revolves around the quirky but devoted staffmembers of San Antonio Memorial Hospital who work from dusk til dawn. This season, the cast of the medical drama includes Eoin Macken, Jill Flint, Ken Leung, Robert Bailey Jr., Brendan Fehr, JR Lemon, Scott Wolf, and Tanaya Beatty.
This season, Night Shift opened to a 1.1 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 4.81 million viewers. The numbers have gone up and down over the course of the season but have remained fairly steady. Season four is currently averaging a 1.0 in the demo with 4.96 million.
While the season is down by 24% in the demo, it’s down just 6% in viewers. Still, aside from Aquarius (which was recently shipped to Saturday nights), Night Shift is NBC’s lowest-rated series of the summer.
Despite the decline in ratings, I suspect that the show will be renewed for a fourth season. A 1.0 in the demo isn’t bad for a summer series these days but we’ll have to wait and see.
But, what do you think? Do you think the The Night Shift should be cancelled or renewed for a fourth season?
Love this show. I hope it does not get cancelled.
please please do not cancel love this show
RENEW!
Please do not cancel. This is a terrific show and very well made.
Absolutely–especially with all the cliffhangers in the season-ending episode. Always great to see some meaningful summer series get renewed!
Please renew Night Shift I love the show and even more the characters.
It should not be a summer show but a mainstream show. The show is amazing and should come to the fall lineup with a full run.
Yes, absolutely, for sure, I would watch a fourth season. Love the characters and the show.
I think the fact that it continued to have viewership through the summer with the Olympics, etc says something. I really enjoy it and nothing like it on in the summer. Perhaps if it gets some consistent airtime viewership will be stronger.
yes. I really like the show and love the characters, I believe it is really well done
This show is great I am 61 years old and have relatives older than I who also watch. It is great to see a show which depicts our mi,ovary and first responders and the hospital staff being so real and presented in a positive light. With all the negative shows and press about our military and others it is refreshing to see a show that still portrays the hope that people still care .
This show, night shift is the ONLY SHOW I WATCH ON TV NOW. Since Stalker was cancelled the only other show worth watching is night shift so I’ll BEGGING please don’t discontinue it. I suffer severe depression and this is the only thing I look forward to each week! Please bring back night shift for season 4!!!!!!!!!
I very MUCH hope NIGHT SHIFT returns for a 4th season..SEEMS like it just getting real good. Of course I hope they are back at the ER and TC is OK! PLEASE!
Please do not end Night shift especially the way season 3 ended. It has everything. I am 65 and have never missed an episode. Please keep me informed 9f your decision
RENEW One of the best shows on TV
