With Suits coming to an end, USA Network is kicking off a spinoff — the Pearson TV show. Can it hang onto the Suits audience, and match or beat its Nielsen ratings, even after the older series ends? Will Pearson be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
A USA Network political drama, Pearson stars Gina Torres, Morgan Spector, Bethany Joy Lenz, Simon Kassianides, Eli Goree, Isabel Arraiza, and Chantel Riley, DB Woodside, and Betsy Brandt. The story centers on Jessica Pearson (Torres) who, after being disbarred, left New York City for the rough and tumble world of Chicago politics. Now she serves as the fixer for the Windy City’s working-class Mayor Bobby Novak (Spector), who is up for reelection. Jessica is just trying to reconcile her competitive nature and desire to win with her goal of doing the right thing.
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 Pearson TV series? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a second season on USA Network?
*11/1/19 update: USA Network has cancelled the Pearson series so there won’t be a second season.
I also just discovered this show and binged all 10 episodes in just a few days. So disappointed that it is canceled already!!! It is truly incredible, with so much room for growth if given the chance! Give other people the chance to discover and love this series as well.
Just binged the season before finding out it’s cancelled. Really good series and kind of pissed to get caught up yet again in an intrigue only to be left hanging. At least bring it to fruition!!! How about bringing it back and marketing it as if a Jennifer Anniston was the leading actress!!!
Renew for season 2. A fantastic show!!!, I and my family loved it
Keep the show on
This is a fantastic show! I think it should be relaunched, the show really good! Reminds of the Boss, but a Suits version.
Renew…awesome show. Love it
We love Pearson. It would be better if they get on without her cousin. Love the mayor’s brother. Like Kerri….like Jessica’s boyfriend.
I really liked Pearson and i do hope there will be a seasion 2. I would like to see Nick play out. E.j.
Its a lame show. We watched 2 and that was the last one. It is going now where , she was much better on Suits. It should be cancelled
Pearson needs to get renewed. The show is Epic, love the politics and the brothers storyline. Nick is my favourite… Don’t like Bobby. I liked all Jessica and nick scenes… Intense chemistry… Season 2 here we come. I need to see Jessica in action again… Nick too
Really like series, it should be given an opportunity to develop as a series. So far, it has been very interesting.
Renew for Season 2. Really like Torres as Pearson in this series. Give it time to develop characters people.
