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?
Love the show. It doesn’t make you think. It is the Age old question that people have asked for centuries…Is there life after death! GREAT SHOW, please keep it.
It is a very good series with a strong storyline and well developed characters. Please renew it for another season.
Production,cast,plot proof is a bright spots on cable!!!!!Save it..
It’s a fantastic, thought-provoking show. All the actors add to the unique quality of the show. I truly hope you bring it back for a second season.
Though I’m an atheist and don’t believe in life after death, I have been very much enjoying this show. It’s well-acted, thought-provoking, and never dull. I hope it gets renewed.
keep the show. It’s not often there is a show that provokes thought beyond the show itself. Well written, well acted. It should continue
It’s just getting really good now. Please don’t cancel it!!
Please don’t cancel the show! I’ve told everyone to watch it! I can’t wait for it to come back
Love the series. Love Jennifer Beals. Bring it back
Please don’t cancel this show! One of the best out there!!
Love the show and very much hope it is renewed. There is so much more to explore now that we know there could be an afterlife. I want to see how it evolves. Acting is excellent.
This show quickly became one of my favorites – it is thoughtful, unique, and well worth bringing it back for a second season. I consider it quality t.v.!
I would like to see this show renewed for a 2nd season. The last few episodes were well written and in particular the season finale left the door wide open for further exploration of the concept the show is based on.
This show is great!!! It really addresses what a lot of people think. I should know as I have had
three kidney transplants and died for 5 min. when I had the first transplant. RENEW IT
Keep it going. Looked forward to it every week. Great acting.
