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?
Yes i liked it & would like to see more.
pls renew this series! One of my favorite tv shows on the air this summer. Thank you TNT.
Please renew!!!
Please renew Proof. I don’t watch much TV, but this show is fascinating !
This is a thought provoking series. Definitely should be renewed regardless of ratings. Give it time to find its audience.
Great show! Please renew!
Please keep proof on the air. It’s a terrific show and last night’s finale keeps us begging for more. It may be a controversial subject but Proof is really one of a kind. I need more Proof! And congrats to TNT for being brave enough to tackle the subject, Brilliant!
Please please please keep it – found the show fresh and intriguing. It got better and better each week. Can’t wait for season 2.
I have enjoyed this series and am truly hoping it will be renewed.
It is one the best shows to keep on the end of my chair.If you don’t renew it your that smart. It take a lot for me to stay up to see it but I do
Proof is not only groundbreaking, it’s courageous. I hope it’s renewed – but it’s playing to an American audience not the most open minded of cultures. One can only hope.
My wife and I enjoy this show, it brings up interesting things to think about. I think it can help people expand their thinking.
Personally I question the chosen target demographic age range. Seems to me the lower age would be higher, as the upper age much higher. We are over 60.
I of course vote to see another season, at least.
Please renew Proof. Really enjoy it.
Please renew!!!
Yes! New season! Please!
