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 really enjoy this show and I am very hopeful that it will be renewed.
Love the show!!!Please let me know when season 2 begins!!!!
Please, please renew. My most, most favorite show ever
Please keep Proof! Its a great show and getting even better as it develops.
Renew, it was a great series.
OMG please Renew I just watched this show on demand it is so awesome!!!!!
Well acted, compelling show. Please renew
We recently moved & DVR’d the first season. Took us three days, but we couldn’t stop watching this compelling drama. Over the past two years, I was with both my parents when they passed away. Proof is exactly what I’ve been thinking about since the felt dad & then mom’s heart beat for the last time. I know this is just a fictional series, but it is a subject we all will think about at some time or another. Fabulous show!
Please continue this series. It is a compelling drama and a question that we all have.
Please renew this show — it is a breath of fresh air in terms of content.
Please renew this show!
I downloaded the series and viewed on Droid TV. Does the network take this type of viewership into consideration? I recommended it to my wife who will watch it on cable. Being a truck driver my viewing habits are very different from others. Complete will written series with excellent acting as Proof has shown itself to be is a must. Second season would be nice, but end the show with class and respect for those who watch. Thank you.
vote to continue the series
I so hope this show is continued it is a real keeper. Please give it a chance.
My husband and I love this show! Hope it gets renewed.
