FOX has high hopes for their new Pitch TV series but they’ve scheduled it on Thursday nights, a highly competitive night for network television. Can it win in the ratings game? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned to find out.
The Pitch TV show follows the inspirational story of a young pitcher (Kylie Bunbury) who becomes the first woman to play Major League Baseball. Although she’s been groomed for this moment for much of her life, she’s embarking on a baseball career under the glare of the white-hot media spotlight. The rest of the cast includes Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Ali Larter, Mark Consuelos, Dan Lauria, Mo McRae, Meagan Holder, and Tim Jo.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
5/1 update: Pitch has been cancelled by FOX. There will be no season two. Details here.
12/9 update: You can see the latest night’s ratings in context.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page or view it here.
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Pitch TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I like this show. Let’s keep it going
Love it…my Favorite Show..Please keep it going !!!!!!
Love this show. It’s different and refreshing. I’m a huge sports fan and it may be unrealistic in today’s world for a female to be in MLB but it does hit on real life issues for women and pro aging players. Cast is good.
Tried out watching “Pitch” when I saw it advertised during the World Series. Glad I did! I’ve binge watched & am all caught up now. Hope the show continues. Fresh, original idea & kudos to MLB for its participation: This show has gotten me even more hooked on MLB.
I’ve never responded to a survey like his before but on this show I must share my opinion . Not really a big TV watching person , mostly the news because reality , talent and most other programs are either fluff on non relatable Pitch has teeth and is the real deal drama on so many levels . Cast , direction , cinematography are spot on . The back stories really draw you in . The characters are genuine and actors are believable and compelling. Maybe some of the scenes that go back in time could be cut down .… Read more »
Tuned in for the first episode with skepticism BUT found the show well done and the characters compelling, too. I tune in to very few shows but this one is definitely on my list. Hope it’s renewed.
Looks like 6 episodes and then You’re Out1 What stinker.
I really love this TV show! If I can’t watch it the night it’s aired I make for sure I get it recorded to watch asap.. Please keep it around for many seasons to come!!
I love this show! Excellent writing and acting.very different from anything out right now.
This show is unlike anything I’ve ever watched. The writing & acting are great. The casting is superb! I hope this show sticks around for awhile!
I watched the first episode to see what it was about and the minute they compared her to Jackie Robinson I immediately changed the channel. No ball player today will ever have to go through what Jackie experienced.
P.S. Ali Larter looks great as usual. 🙂
I hope this series continues. I think the writing is very smart and the actors seem to have very good chemistry. I’ve been really enjoying every episode. Please make a second season!
I Love it! The story is awesome, and the cast are naturals at being in league with a female driven pitcher. I’d like to see its success, and will be looking for season 2!! U ROCK PITCH!!
Obviously nobody would miss this show after it’s canceled.
I won’t, but the ratings haven’t fallen enough for it to get cancelled yet. A 0.92(which stinks, don’t get me wrong) is still high enough to get it renewed because it is on FOX. If its live average rating falls down to a 0.80, then I think FOX will dump it for sure.
I have never written in about a show before. However, i really love Pitch! It’s so refreshing to see something new and different from the same old, tired subject matter. Fox please give this show a fighting chance! I have seen no marketing for it whatsoever. I’ve been watching it on On Demand from Cablevision because I had no clue what day or time it is on. Fox, please order another season!
Please keep the show and do a second season!! it is a very unique show!!
