CBS has cancelled numerous sitcoms despite their having decent ratings. Will Partners join that list or will it survive to be renewed for a second season?
Partners typically airs on Monday nights at 8:30pm on CBS. The sitcom cast includes Michael Urie, David Krumholtz, Sophia Bush, Brandon Routh, Tracy Vilar, and Molly Shannon.
Below are the TV show’s ratings for the 2012-13 season, the best way to tell if Partners will be cancelled or renewed for season two.

It wasn’t a great start for Partners. Lead-in How I Met Your Mother brought in a 3.4 demo rating and its lead-out, 2 Broke Girls, drew a 3.7 rating. Clearly, a large segment of the demo was avoiding Partners.
What’s more, the network was way down when comparing this sitcom to the How I Met Your Mother episode that aired in the same timeslot last year.
Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you like the Partners TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or continue for a second season?
Thought to show was funny. Urie and the rest of the cast seem to have terrific chemistry. I like it, much better then all the crap reality shows.
We really enjoyed this show. Each actor is terrific. The network should reconsider.
It’s the kind of show that grows on you.
This is one of the best new comedies “Lewis” is great, so hilarious. I would be sad if this show got cancelled already. I don’ t think it had much of a chance yet. If other networks can keep shows like Last Man Standing, then Partners certainly deserves a fighting chance.
I would be sad if it got canceled. I love this show
the showed sucked !!!
I look forward to this show every Monday and would be really bummed if it got cancelled. The characters really compliment each other and always make me laugh. I really hope Partners doesn’t get cancelled. I hate when I get into a show and then the season finale rolls around, something big happens and then leave you with a cliffhanger, only to find out the show will not return the next season. Please don’t cancel Partners. Thanks!!! 🙂
I really like David Krumholz, but don’t really care for the show.
I think CBS should re think their decision.This was one of very few sitcoms that was so funny and has a great cast with some very strong talent. I couldn’t wait until Monday night to watch it and I even got co workers and friends to tune in. I would even PVR it and watch it again and again and ever episode so far was hilarious.All I can say is that if it doesn’t return CBS has lost a viewer.
This show is really hilarious! It’s this decade’s Will and Grace so to speak. I think CBS would be fools to cancel it and try to replace it with something else. It’s surrounded by other solid sitcoms that didn’t start off great but have evolved into a pretty decent line-up for Monday nights. I hope they don’t cancel this show.
please don’t cancel this show,,its soooo good,,the actors are all so entertaining,,best show i have seen a a long while

[…] Partners wasn’t a ratings success for CBS, it wasn’t a huge flop either. Heck, NBC and FOX would love to have more sitcoms with […]
