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 this show. The theme is the new subject matter that can be controversial but something most people think about (deep down inside). Give it another shot. This wouldn’t be the first show that didn’t blow up the numbers at the beginning. Too many cop and doctor shows. This one is great.
I loved this show!! Please have a 2nd season!! Very thought provoking!!
love the show….it had me watching every week….
I loved the show too…it helps us all to “believe”…please bring it back
Proof was an awesome series Please renew the show!,
I am very upset about Proof being canceled! This was so interesting! Nothing else like it on tv WHY didn’t you advertise it more? There is no reason it should have been canceled! Not happy about this decision!
This is a great show, please keep it on… Don’t let a great show & cast go by the wayside….
Please DON’T cancel this show. It is absolutely awesome…
Love this show please renew!!
Love’ love this show!! Please bring it back. All of the actors are terrific !!! Jo
RENEW “PROOF” AND START SEASON 2. LOVED THE SHOW. IT WAS UNIQUE, ACTORS WERE EXCELLENT, ALL THE CHARACTERS WERE INTERESTING, AND ABOVE ALL ELSE THE SHOW WAS INSPIRING AND THOUGHT PROVOKING. IF THE RATINGS WERE LOW IS WAS ONLY BECAUSE IT WAS PROMOTED ENOUGH. I FOUND IT ON ACCIDENT AND TOLD EVERYONE ABOUT IT BUT THEY HAD NOT HEARD OF IT EITHER. THIS IS A HIT SHOW AND A SHOW THAT IS NEEDED ON TV FOR A CHANGE. FANTASTIC.
Definitely a second season that show was awesome .
Definitely renew this series. I absolutely love it.
I think this program has huge potential. Please keep it on.
I love this program. Hopefully, hopefully you will continue it.
I am one of those rare types of people. I know things and share this ability of knowledge with 1% of the world. I do not want to see this series canceled! Please bring it back for a second season. Maybe some paid advertising on other affiliate channels and major magazines might help your viewer status and ratings. Try finding reliable physical mediums to consult with to bring a truthful edge to the other side. I fell in love with this show and hope for season 2 soon!
The biggest question that mankind could ask, where do we go after death, has been canceled?
