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?
I’m fascinated by life after death. Please re-new the series
Please renew this show. It is something completely different from all the other cop or lawyer shows. Jennifer Beals is great. I would like to see her character given more freedom to expand.
Renew please, it is a great serie!
This is the BEST show on tv please KEEP!!!!!!!
This is an extremely interesting show. Please renew another season. I look forward to watching season 2.
Love the show..
My favorite summer series.
I love this show and look forward to watching it every week. Please Renew!
I love this show. However they always seem to cancel the shows i like so that doesnt bode well for a season 2.
Please renew Proof. Ms. Beals and the supporting cast are wonderful.
Renew
Renew , Love it
i liked the show and hope it returns.
Season 2 would be great! The show remains interesting through the entire season despite the absence of murder, huge amounts of blood, violence, all sorts of psycho-killers etc., which many other series sometimes depend on (too much in my opinion). Proof – one of the oldest and intriguing questions of mankind very well put in a present setting without being too pathetic or too fictional. The actors and writers are doing a really great job too and one wishes to see more!
Love the show!!
Please renew proof. The series in intriguing and most older people have asked this question themselves. I love this series and it’s really the only series my husband and myself enjoy together.
