It’s a great show. The cast works great together. The concept is still awesome. And hello! ERIC MCCORMACK is on it 😉 And yes I love the other cast members to 🙂 This show still has life. Don’t sign the DNR order as that would cause a wrongful termination issue with the fans of this show.

TNT Powers That Be….you know what decision you are supposed to make.
I love this show!! Please don’t cancel !! I’ll be so upset!!
Perception is highly regarded in the mental health community for championing awareness and acceptance of schizophrenia and other mental illness. It would be a shame if TNT dropped Perception, as its numbers still put it within TNT’s top 10 programming.
This is an intellectual, rewarding, intelligent & frequently comedic series, well written, well casted & well directed.
Keep Perception. It’s deserving.
Please do not cancel. This show is a breath of fresh air. Showing that mental illness does not stop you living your life if handled in the correct way. It’s entertaining and informative and the fact that Eric McCormack is so easy on the eye is just another plus………do not be taking Dr Daniel away from us…….
Please keep the show going it is clever and amusing. What television is good for entertainment!
Hope this one does not get cancelled! One of a few TV that actually has a good storyline!
Renew renew renew RENEW.seriously.
LOVE the show. One of the few show that are for the more mature viewers. Fun watching Lawickie interact with Dr. Peirce. How many net works would even touch a show with the main character as a schizophrenic? Great cast ! Eric McCormack is brilliant! PLEASE PLEASE don’t cancel one of the few intelligent shows on TV. All we seem to get lately is mindless so called comedy, “reality shows” and “adult” cartoons. Let us keep one of the few well written, well acted and interesting shows.
Please don’t cancel this show. I’m so tired of investing my time in intelligent shows only to have them replaced with something louder and shinier. How does watching a show On demand effect it’s ratings? I would think that rating fluctuations would be expected regarding summer series.

I truly believe that this was one of the primary reasons that the cable network series were able to take viewership from the networks in the first place. The networks… Read more »
Loved this show from the first episode, why cancel because of your 18-49 demographics. Are we considered to be less valuable because we are over the age of 49, it is ridiculous to e so narrow minded.
I don’t want to lose a show I love because I am not in your favorite age range!!
Exactly !! Very well put – I’m 76 & actually spend money – I Have several neighbors within your precious demographic who have ad their cars repossessed and their homes are in foreclosure – tell me again about your precious demo, dear networks !
Please keep perception or at least give it a believable ending in more season. It’s a great show. I have to download it and watch the full season when I have the time. Don’t leave us hanging. Finish what you started! You owe your loyal viewers at least that much.
Canceling Perception would be a huge mistake. I would definitely love to see more of it. So please, give it another chance. I’m positive that it can do better.
RENEW IT!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously, it’s an amazing show and I have yet to see a dull and boring moment in it.
