TNT has decided not to renew their Proof TV show for a second season. The life-after-death drama has been cancelled after one short season of 10 episodes.
On Proof, Doctor Carolyn “Cat” Tyler (Jennifer Beals) lost her son, saw her marriage end, and became estranged to her teenage daughter. Looking for purpose, 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.
Debuting in June, Proof got off to a slow start with a 0.37 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.66 million viewers. The numbers didn’t get better as the weeks progressed and were often worse. The season ended up averaging a 0.31 in the demo with 2.12 million viewers. It was one of the lowest-rated scripted shows on the cable channel.
What do you think? Did you like the Proof TV show? Do you think that it should have been cancelled? Would you have watched a second season?
TNT missed the boat on this show. Sometimes it takes a little while for a show to catch on, This was a very good show with a little suspense in it.I hate they didnt give it one more year.
Disappointed to hear this show was cancelled. We both really liked the show.
Smart script and great acting. I guess TV execs need more. Too bad
Not surprised. It seems that whenever there is a show that is not about crime, hospitals, horror or a “reality”, it gets cancelled. Shows with a “comforting” message, it is not given a chance. Shameful.
TNT PROOF CANCELLED ********.
Very disappointed the show has been cancelled! Hard to understand why a program that gives us hope & comfort would be cancelled. Sad that the majority of people prefer violence, murder, sex…..and of course more reality shows!!!
Extremely disappointed and pissed off that proof was cancelled! It was a good storyline and one that many viewers can relate to. Season one was way too short! I’m not sure where TNT got the stats for their ratings of this show but many of my friends were excited that this storyline was getting attention.
very disappointed. Considering going back to just netflicks and cancelling cable. This show as one of the reasons we got it back in the first place.
That was my favorite show just because it did push the boundaries!!! Thanks Alot TNT I dont care for sny other of your shows!!!
Very sad to see this show go I was really looking forward to a second season guess there’s no reason to watch tnt any longer
TNT decision assisted me in deciding not to watch their network! If it’s not sex or murder good shows don’t stand a chance. Proof was an excellent show, how disappointing.
Very disappointed! No more TNT for me.
This series is perfectly presented. Jennifer Beals is phenomenal & moved past her skeptical doctor belief & ventured into the after life. This show should have been renewed & broadcast on a different day & time. Some of us are over 49 years old & we want dramas which challenge our beliefs. I wish another network would pick this excellent show up.
I beleive they don’t care about decent shows . They have to be all sex and crime to be on nowadays ! A show that provoked thought doesn’t stand a chance . A shame ,it was good.
I’m so very disappointed that you’ve decided to cancel this show. With all the crap on t.v. these days, it seems everything I like is being cancelled.
I was looking forward to season 2, so yes I would have watched it. No reason to cancel, not everyone likes the same shoes.
Just another blunder by the networks. God forbid if the 18-25 year olds don’t watch a show then it gets axed. The networks need to get their heads out of their ass. NOT ALL SHOWS ARE FOR THE KIDS MORONS
Exactly. Was a very good show.
