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 also enjoy this show and am hoping that it will be back for another season. It was just starting to get really interesting. Please consider bringing back for another season.
proof is one of the best summer shows this year. Great stories that give you something to think about. Love the cast too
Please give “Proof” a chance to find its audience. Well-acted and tenderhearted without too much sappiness. Refreshing in its non-violent, non-cynical and non-grim approach to life-and-death conversation. Big fan of Jennifer Beals and Matthew Modine. And Joe Morton!
Please DON’T let this show die!
Please keep this show. There are so few shows that are worth keeping, but this is one. Very original, keeps the mind wondering!!!
Keep the show. It’s really good! Jennifer Beals makes it!
My fav show don’t cancel! Brilliant actors and great story.
this is a well- done show- please renew.
Jennifer beals and cast are great!
I LOVE PROOF!!! I love Jennifer Beals and she has said numerous times that Proof is her favorite acting gig ever because she is so fascinated by the topic too. I think the show is fascinating and the acting is great. PLEASE BRING IT BACK!!!! It is so nice to have a show that makes you THINK about stuff that is not zombies, cop shows, etch. Don’t get me wrong I like those shows too, but it is refreshing to have a show that makes you think BEYOND.
