Tonight marks the season finale of the Proof TV show on TNT. Will this series that’s focused on death manage to stay alive and see a second season? Should this drama be cancelled instead?
On Proof, Doctor Carolyn “Cat” Tyler (Jennifer Beals) recently lost her son, saw her marriage end, and become estranged to her teenage daughter. Cat is persuaded by cancer-stricken billionaire Ivan Turing (Matthew Modine) to search for evidence that death is not the end and this takes her on a deeply personal and emotional journey. The rest of the cast includes David Sutcliffe, Joe Morton, Edi Gathegi, Caroline Rose Kaplan, Callum Blue, and Annie Thurman.
The series debuted on June 16th with a 0.37 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.66 million viewers. It was a pretty mediocre start for a TNT series. The ratings dwindled downward over the course of the season though they saw a nice bump upward last week.
The season is currently averaging a 0.31 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.12 million viewers. It’s one of TNT’s lowest-rated scripted series in the demo and is in the middle of the pack in viewership.
With ratings like these, the cable channel could go either way. It could easily be canceled or renewed. If the finale does particularly well, those ratings coupled with last week’s numbers might be enough to tip the scale towards a renewal. For now, we’ll have to wait and see what happens.
But, what do you think? Do you like the Proof TV show on TNT? If you ran the cable channel, would you cancel or renew it for a second season?
Keep! Great show.
LOVE the show!! Should certainly be renewed
Please renew Proof. It is an excellent show. Love the cast and the story lines. This show is very thought provoking!
Wasn’t sure where this show was going to go in the beginning. Glad I kept watching. I am really looking forward to another season. I hope the network renews it. I think it has a good mix of what we currently know as reality and a good blend of fiction. I’d love to see what the writer’s plans are for next year. Please give it some time to grow.
It should be renewed!! It is a slow moving reveal of something that can not really be revealed because no one really know what happens when we die.
LOVE this show!!!! Absolutey needs to be renewed!!!!!!!
Pleaae keep proof!! It is hard to find decwnt tv shows that i can get into in the summer! Love all the charecters ans the storyline!
“Proof” absolutely should be renewed!!! The cast is great, Jennifer Beals is incredible and Matthew Modine is fantastic!! It is also just a step ahead of society’s curiosity with the concept of of Life After Death. A topic that was once thought as”fantasy” that only right wing conservatives and kooks believed, the topic of life after death is becoming more widely accepted. It would truly be a shame if TNT decided to drop such a promising show after 1 season. Many successful shows today launched with less than a mediocre rating. Come on TNT! Kyra Sdgewick’s “Proof” deserves at least… Read more »
