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?
I really enjoy this show! We DVR it do we don’t miss it. Please don’t cancel this snow. This can be a very controversial subject in today’s cultural environment. This is a brave step in airing this show. Thanks for taking the step.
Most episodes posed intriguing discussions among my friends. Episodes kept us eager forthe next episode. Unusual to see a tv station take a risk on a program that invites the viewer to question the mystery that surrounds life and death. Refreshing to have to think. Exciting that there is a program that promotes serious discussion. Thank you to directors and cast. Bravo.
Renew for a 2nd season, please!!!
Yes..it is a great show. Something different and refreshing. Please don’t cancel
Finally…Proof that there are still shows that can be watched and followed like intelligent beings that don’t require you to vote for anyone! The entire cast in this show is smart, able to keep an audience coming back for more and don’t need hot tub or a rose.
Bring PROOF back!
Good show very intriguing would like it to continue and I enjoy watching it.
this show is okay, it definitely makes your mind think and illustrates multiple paranormal theories and scenarios. However I think that the plot line between the episodes is a bit choppy and everything is over dramatized. I think it should be brought back for a second season however I’d like to see less choppiness in the plot line and more consistency in the chain of events.
Renew!!!!!
I love the content and the acting of the series. Please bring it back for a second season. The writers have just tapped the surface of this subject matter. I would love to see more of it. It’s great TV!
Yes, renew the show. Jennifer is a marvelous actress. The show is extremely thought provoking & worth the watch.
PROOF IS THE MOST SPIRITUAL SHOW SINCE LOST THAT TRIES TO DEAL WITH THE HEREAFTER. I LOVE IT. .I HOPE THAT PROOF HAS AT LEAST A SECOND SEASON HEREAFTER.
I am all for it being renewed. Love it!!
Keep Proof going. This is an original series and a gem amist all the horrible reality tv shows.
One of the few programs that has the audience thinking. Yeah to no violence!!!!
I love this show! I look forward to Tuesday each week and I’m hoping it will be renewed! Please!
I love this show…never want it to end…Can’t wait to see it each week. Great acting and great script. Been spreading the word…needs more media attention…
