Over the past year, TNT really cleaned house by cancelling several of their drama series. They’re supposedly now favoring “edgier” series. Does Proof, a show that focuses on death and the afterlife, fit with that new strategy? How will it do in the ratings? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
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 ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

What do you think? Do you like watching the Proof TV series on TNT? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Love the show, more please … something enjoyable ,, dont stop .. well done
Proof is an intelligent depiction of the human struggle with the life after death question…it touches us all, esp those that are unsure. Please do not let it flatline.
Great show nice to see something different so sick of cop showes
Love love love the show
Proof is the best new show of this past season on TNT. I didn’t want it to end. Please keep it.
Please keep it! It’s the only TV series I want to watch now… Acting is superb!
I love this show and look forward to watching it every week! I hope it is renewed for a second season!
I loved this tv series. The idea for the plot is brilliant. The writing and acting is superb. Please renew this show.
Great Show , believable Jennifer Beale does a terrific job in her role look forward to seeing what Proof delivers week in and week out
The show has potential but it has arrived at a crossroads. Does it slide down the path to ‘Touched by an Angel’ and cement its favour by the christian right while losing everybody else? Does it try to dance around the issue and take cues from as many religious beliefs as possible to please everyone, somewhat? Does it have something more Kubrickesque in mind that the producers are losing sleep over but the writers are having a ball with? That’s what happens when you pick ‘life after death’ as your theme. You have to be gutsy!
I don’t own a television and the only t.v. show I’ve watched online in the past ten years other than Proof is The Good Wife. I paid to watch Proof through iTunes and I would do it again in a heartbeat. I hope TNT renews it for a second season.
This is a great show. I hope TNT renews Proof for a second season.

Keep it! I got more into it middle to end, def worth keeping 🙂
I absolutely love Proof. I was disappointed when it wasn’t on tonight. I had two more people I had told to watch it. Please renew it. So nice to see a show with a story and substance. I am so sick of reality shows!
