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 loved it……..let’s see some more…..
Love Proof! I hope it has a fighting chance to air another season! With everything happening in the world today, I believe people want to know the possibilities that may be, even thru a program that may give people hope. I say, keep it up!
Jennifer Beals, Mathew modine, and the rest of the cast are perfectly partnered!
This show is interesting and well done. I certainly hope it will be renewed for
next season.
I really like the show. The show has a lot of potential, especially with the way it ended. Now, with the impending leave of absence at the hospital and her firmly vested interest in what is next, Dr Tyler can focus on the project. Since there is so much information on NDE’s (a treasure trove), the writers have no excuse to not make the show endearing and personal, yet adventurous and cutting edge.
Loved this show….please keep it for season 2!
Please keep this show.
Season 2 yes
I would most certainly keep Proof. It is well done, unlike the other mindless shows on television. It is also family friendly , not vulgar. The acting is excellent and it is great to see Jennifer Beals again!!!!
I say keep proof on My husband and I enjoyed it!
I loved the show. But the finale really wrapped it up. Leave it there
please keep this show , very good it deserves a season 2
I really enjoyed Proof. Please keep it going. Jennifer Beals is really terrific in it.
If you have ever lost a soul mate or a loved one you will be drawn to this show, please give this show a second season chance.
Please keep Proof I really enjoy it!
This show is different and fresh. Hopefully, there will be a season 2.
