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 thought this was a refreshing story line compared to many of the stagnant ideas out there. Please keep this show going!!!
LIVE THIS SHOW HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT!!DO NOT CANCEL!!
Keep the show. Very interesting subject and the angle of the show is different. It shows a lot of ideas are available and yet you will never know for sure until you are dead.
First of all, how can you EVER go wrong with Jennifer Beals I mean really!
Awesome show, great acting, funky, creepy, eerie idea for the plot, Come on people it really doesn’t get any better than this.
Finally a new show with some thought put into it and you’re truly considering canceling it? Bad move folks, rethink that idea and just keep putting some new ideas and twists in there and add some humor every now and again and you’re looking at some People Choice Awards and more.
Love It!
Please Keep
LOVE this show!! Please do NOT cancel.
I have enjoyed every episode. I am not in the 18 to 49 demographic,.j I’m older, but this is a great show. It stimulates my interest in life.
Don’t let the pseudo intellectuals in L A or NY allow you to end a series that stimulates the gray (as Perot would say) cells. It will catch on in season 2
It really gives you something to think about.

Oh my gosh. I finally got to watch the last two episodes. Do Not, I repeat DO NOT cancel this show. I LOVE PROOF!!!! Its awesome, exciting, suspenseful, can’t wait to see the next season!!!! Wish it was here already!!
Writers could develop the series more into the obscure by attaching main actors to visiting patients that have misfortunes in the healing process. Kind of follow them into their experience and determine if it is an imaginary projection or an actual event. A shift away from the hospital could find the rest of the “foot in both sides “crew.
We LOVE this show. Great premise, amazing characters and phenomenal story lines. Jennifer Beals’ performance is worth a renewal in itself. TV would lose a great drama if this show was cancelled. KEEP!!
This show is very interesting and meaningful. Jennifer Beals and the supporting cast are great. Want to see it back for another season.
Great show! Thought provoking, exciting and fun to watch with a great mix of characters. There are so many ways it can go that would be mind blowing. PLEASE DON’T CANCEL IT! I’m DYING to see more
🙂
THIS IS AN AWESOME SHOW. IT IS A QUESTION THAT WE ALL WOULD LIKE AN ANSWER TO.
WE MIGHT NOT GET AN ANSWER ON THIS SHOW, BUT MAYBE WE CAN COME CLOSE.
JENNIFER BEALS IS A SKEPTIC IN THE BEGINNING BUT YOU CAN SEE HOW SHE CHANGES TO THINK WHAT IF?? AND LOOK AT MATTHEW MODINE. HE IS SUCH AN ENTHUSIASTIC ACTOR.
PLEASE KEEP THIS SHOW. IF ANYTHING IT, WILL OPEN UP PEOPLES MINDS.
I love this show! Baby Boomers ( you know those of us who are retired for example)!!!! watch TV at a greater frequency than 18-40 something’s. And in case you so called experts don’t know WE are the one’s with more $$ to spend on your advertisers!
When are you people going to wake up and realize there are many ages that love this show!
DO NOT CANCEL PROOF!!!!
