The rookies of NYC 22 won’t be honing their police skills on CBS much longer. The network has cancelled the cop series before the entire season has finished airing.
NYC 22 follows a half dozen police men and women as they learn the ropes in the Big Apple. The ensemble cast includes Adam Goldberg, Leelee Sobieski, Stark Sands, Judy Marte, Harold House Moore, Felix Solis, Tom Reed, and Terry Kinney.
Debuting on April 15th, in (now-cancelled) CSI: Miami’s former timeslot, NYC 22 attracted a disappointing 1.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 8.86 million viewers. The second episode dropped 7% and the third fell 14% more. Last Sunday night’s episode maintained a 1.2 in the demo and 6.87 million.
It was clear from the start that this new show was doomed to be cancelled.
The series currently averages a 1.3 rating in the all-important demo with 7.67 million viewers. On our CBS Ratings Report Card, which measures the relative demo performance of TV shows on the network, NYC 22 has an “F” grade. It’s the lowest-rated scripted show currently on the network.
The Tiffany network ordered 13 installments of NYC 22 and, for the foreseeable future, they’ll continue to air on Sunday nights.
What do you think? Are you going to miss NYC 22? Do you think it should have been renewed for season two?
I really, really, like this show. I’m currently watching all the episodes, and can’t believe they cancelled it. I really wish they would’ve reconsidered
I really, really like this show. I’m watching the episodes now, I wish it was never canceled. I love all the characters 🙁
NYC 22 is a ridiculous premise. Pairing rookie cops? Is this a drama or a comedy?
I liked NYC22, I’m watching it for the first time on Netflix and checking to see when it will return. To my surprise it has been cancelled. Please bring it back it a good show.
love nyc 22 , i dont understand why they cancelled the show. i also set my pvr to record the show
Ohh no… It’s nothing like jersey shore or the kardashions (how ever that crap is spelt), we need to cancel this stupid show because its about real life people and their situations. “Major sarcasm”… Bad move canceling this show CBS!!!
BRING IT BACKKKKK!!!
Although it’s not a classical one, NYC 22 is still a nice one. I like it. Why did CBS cancel it? Unbelievable!
Great show. I was wondering what happened to it. That’s really too bad. My DVR was set to record the series. Bring it back it was good TV.
This should have never been cancled. Its amazing and good tv!!
Great show……It is evident that American TV has taken a turn for the worse….Thia was a top notch series..
this show should have never been cancelled the only problem was then it ran against the closer 2 hour repeats and psych bring it back a well written and directed show showing real everyday to day problems of the nypd they need to rethink this
CBS should have never cancelled this show. it was well played, very well directed and thought out.
Great show, I don’t know why they cancelled it.
I thought the show was great. Much better than Blue Bloods, which I stopped watching half way through the first season. NYC 22 was much more realistic. Not just another night time soap. This was cut from the same cloth as Hill Street Blues.
