ABC has had a hard time establishing new drama TV series. Last season, they introduced six and cancelled four of them. Will Notorious be a ratings success for the network on Thursday nights, a highly-competitive evening? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
Notorious revolves around the symbiotic relationship between a charismatic defense attorney (Daniel Sunjata) and a powerhouse TV producer (Piper Perabo) as they attempt to control the media, the justice system, and each other. Together, they make great TV and determine the nation’s headlines. The rest of the cast includes Kate Jennings Grant, Aimee Teegarden, J. August Richards, Sepideh Moafi, Ryan Guzman, and Kevin Zegers.
4/26 update: Although not officially announced, Notorious has been cancelled by ABC. Details here.
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 — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
10/25 update: ABC has cut the first season order to 10 episodes. Cancellation next?
12/9 update: You can see the latest night’s ratings in context.

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 Notorious TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I went without cable for awhile and only just started watching this show and I LOVE IT!!! I REALLY hope it’s not permanently cancelled

Please renew Notorious its great show I love it and the Cast is wonderful. Why is it other shows stay. How can we help to stay this show
I loveeee this show! Please make season 2!
I love Notorious!!! A lot of shows stay on that aren’t that good and the ones I love always seem to get cancelled. Please give this show a second season please!
This is a great show. I work 2 jobs so I catch up on the show by watching online the next day. Would love to see a season two as its hard to find good shows to watch that last more then one season.
Once again you bring in a new show them cancel it too fast. This is a great show give it a chance. I would love to see a season two. Have a little faith. Viewers will catch on.
I love this show… my fiance and I watch it weekly and would be so upset if it were cancelled..
My mom, sister and daughter love it to… it’s the talk of our Thursday and Friday one times carries on to Sat… we love!!!!
Please renew
I love this show!!!!
Please renew! This is a really good show!
My son and I love this show.
I absolutely love this show!!! My friend loves it too. I ended up downloading all 9 episodes off demand and was hooked immediately. Please don’t cancel it. Give it another chance…PLEASE!!
I think this a great show. With it taking the slot of “Scandal” and following “Grey’s” it was held to, too high of standards. Critics were too negative about this show and don’t know what they are talking about. The characters were great: loved Louise’s, Julia’s and Jakes. I think each were very powerful and chosen as great matches for each person. Hoping for season 2 and the hot, dramatic, unforeseen turns and twists of the storylines.
i love this show so does my best friend, this is our new favorite. that last episode was not announced and i thought it wasn’t playing thank goodness i recorded it!
Please renew notorious for season 2 my mom and I love the show thanks
