What’s This TV Show About?
A USA Network legal and 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 Suits spinoff 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.
Season One Ratings
The first season of Pearson averaged a 0.10 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 513,000 viewers. Check out how Pearson stacks up against other USA Network TV shows.
Pearson has been cancelled so there won’t be for a second season. Could it be revived someday? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will USA Network cancel or renew Pearson for season two? The premiere drew much lower numbers than its lead-in, the ninth season premiere of Suits and subsequent episodes did even worse. It ended its season as USA’s lowest-rated scripted series so I don’t think there will be a second season. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.
