Is it a crime to stop watching the first season of the Prodigal Son TV show on FOX? As we all know, the Nielsen ratings typically play a big role in determining whether a TV show like Prodigal Son is cancelled or renewed for season two. Unfortunately, most of us do not live in Nielsen households. Because many viewers feel frustration when their viewing habits and opinions aren’t considered, we’d like to offer you the chance to rate all of the season one episodes of Prodigal Son here. *Status update below.
A FOX crime drama series, the Prodigal Son TV series stars Tom Payne, Michael Sheen, Bellamy Young, Lou Diamond Phillips, Aurora Perrineau, Frank Harts, Halston Sage, and Keiko Agena. Malcolm Bright (Payne) is an extraordinary criminal psychologist who knows how killers think and how their minds work. In the 1990s, his father, Dr. Martin Whitly (Sheen), was a notorious serial killer called “The Surgeon” who killed at least 23 people. Since murder is “the family business”, Malcolm uses his twisted genius for good, to help the NYPD solve crimes and stop killers. He works alongside his longtime mentor, Gil Arroyo (Phillips), and two detectives — no-nonsense Dani Powell (Perrineau) and JT Tarmel (Harts), a born-and-bred New Yorker who questions whether Bright is a psychopath himself.

I absolutely love love love love this show can’t wait for it to come back on
Funny, Dark, Creepy, Edgy are but a few words to describe this show. Highly unusual and very interesting show to watch looking forward to a Season 2!
Prodigal Son: it moves, it’s subtle, it’s deep, it’s the best new series since Hannibal. Thank you for this – no flat characters!
I like Prodigal Son! I will watch it next season for sure!
I’d be truly upset if there isn’t a second season
As for the Prodigal Son…I can take it or leave it. If they keep it on fine, if they cancel it that’s fine also.
Please bring Prodigal Son back! We love it!
Love the prodigal son!! Looking forward to more seasons!!
Love the prodigal son!!! Looking forward to more seasons!
I absolutely believe it should be renewed. I just seen it because my dish tv records prime time, other wise I might not of seen it. Because everytime I watch a season of something I love you all cancel it before giving it a chance. The crossing, reverie, manifest (but I do believe its is coming back for season 2 now) Not exactly sure if its NBC, FOX, CBS, CW, or witch one of the networks had them.

I loved the Crossing and Reverie and your right, you just get into it and poof
Great writing, great acting. Really like this show. This is the only show I am watching on network TV.
I just love Prodigal Son. It’s well written, and the acting superb! Please bring it back for many more seasons to come. Malcolms character is so engrossing to watch. Payne is a great actor.
Prodigal Son should definitely be renewed for season 2, and hopefully even more seasons. The best show I’ve seen in a long time! I can’t wait until it returns. I look forward to watching this show every week!
Absolutely great show! I haven’t seen anything of this quality for a while. The pilot wasn’t the best, series get better as it goes on.
The most cool thing is that it focuses on heroes and storyline, not romantic relationships.
Advise all my friends to watch it.
No idea why it isn’t more popular than Sherlock was once, it is much better!!!
I love the Prodigal Son it most definitely should be renewed for a 2nd season.
