What do you think? Do you like the Perception TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a fourth season?
Renew!!! Perception is my favorite show!
Perception is a refreshing TV series that should be renewed!!! We see the world from Dr. Pierce’s point of view, never knowing if the characters are real until Dr. Pierce does. This gives the viewer special insight into the confusion in his life. I, also, like the theme of the program being introduced and concluded in his classroom.
RENEW Perception!!!
PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL PERCEPTION!!!
Perception is hands down the best show on television. While there are many other crime shows, perception’s unique storyline makes it addictive to watch. Regardless of ratings, this phenomenal show needs to stay. The cast is outstanding and the writers are brilliant. I’ll be devastated if it doesn’t go on.
please do not cancel Perception. It’s the only show I look forward to weekly. Eric plays the plays the part so well. please do not cancel. So many good shows are being cancelled due to low ratings. We all DVR shows to watch when we can, not when you want us to. Shows like Glades, Grimm, etc were so good, but low ratings, again not watched right away, they snap it off and put a stupid reality show in its place.
This is one of the best shows on. Please do not cancel!!!!!
Perception is a fabulous show. Eric McCormick is fantastic. I would hate to see this show be cancelled. I wish there were the t.v. seasons of the old days that ran from September to June . Now they actors get paid more and work less.
It is a wonderful show that runs in the Summer of course the ratings are off people are on vacation but I watched the entire season in on night on demand it is the best show on TV please renew it.
I may not be able to watch it when it airs due to work and child commitments, but I always DVR and watch later. This is my favorite show!!!!
Don’t give up on quality. This show has it. Love it.
Please don’t cancel Perception – it is one of the (if not the ) best show(s) on television
There is so much mindless drivel on network stations – I look forward to watching something challenging. Dr. Pierce is a fabulous character (Eric McCormack is perfect in the role). Please bring him back for another season.
RENEW! I love this show!
Leave it!I already wrote my comment elsewear.
I have been a fan from the start. I love how this show is able to educate as it entertains. The chemistry in the entire cast. The writing is always excellent. It has wonderful guest stars! The entire series shines. I would hate to see it cancelled and replaced with an inferior show that “might” appeal to that fickle target demographic for one season—or might not.
Please renew!
pls renew, all the real good shows like this one tend to be dropped,so sad that the violent, bad language and nude shows seem to go on forever…
