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?
Terribly sad to see that there will be no second season. Hopefully another network will see the value and pick it up. Great show, great content.
This was a fascinating show and I was really looking forward to Season 2 and maybe more. Each character had a story and a path…all now left incomplete, up in the air. Interesting questions raised and now unexplored. and/or unanswered. Thanks to Jennifer Beals and cast . I’d buy the Season 1 DVD(s), but it’s looking as if TNT is going to deprive us of those as well.
I loved this show… I wish TNT would change their minds and give “Proof” another chance….
I loved this show. Every time i get into a show they cancel it. People are still commenting on this show but t.v. executives still don’t listen. Put a little thought in 1st of the year release, with a little reinvestment in promoting. Give people a big time job and they loose there common sense.
Crap, Bastar d Executioner and now Proof cancelled after one season! Starting to be a little too much syfy and RHO?? on tv.What’s left?
I won hundred percent agree with you. TNT is canceling way too many shows here lately. I was really looking forward to season two, it look like he was really starting to pick up.
I agree, it was like leaving one with a bit of a cliffhanger, now we’ll never know what happens. I hope the higher ups read all these comments and bring it back. A lot of us would definitely be happy, maybe another station would pick it up.
Loved the show & the actors. I hate it when they don’t give a show a chance. Very sorry to hear it won’t be returning was excited to see where it was going to take you next. Please reconsider. Thanks
I think that the show was great and I looked forward to watching it every week.
Each show was unique and the acting was great. They brought back the Libraians and gave it a second chance. If I might comment it is totally inane. If they can give this show a second chance then please bring back Proof which is hands down a better show.
Honestly this is bull ****! This was a really good show! Of course it would be cancelled! I looked forward To it every week! Everybody in the show Did a really good job And I always looked forward To what story they were going to come up with next! I think you should have given it another chance and ran the season again on the off season and advertised the hell out of it! I am really pissed!
Y.
With all the people writing in does anyone think they will bring it back. Such an interesting show, hope they change their minds.
YOU ARE IDIOTS AND WE WAITED TO HEAR THAT IT WAS CANCELLED PROOF IF YOU RENEWED IT NOW THE ACTORS SHOULD SCREW TNT
So disappointed!!! I loved this show! I am 52yrs old and I don’t need see sex, crime and blood to like a show! Really should consider bringing this one back!! Big Mistake!!!
It was the best series. Go figure, a show that gives people hope and they cancel it.
Hope! I think so many people need hope right now!!
And I loved this show & am VERY DISAPPOINTED it was not picked up!!
We need shows like these that are different, thought provoking!!
This always happens. If the show doesn’t have a lot of blood and guts and sex it gets cancelled. So disappointing.
I’m so bummed. Jennifer is so intense and fun to watch when she acts. I hope she gets another show. Love her!
This, is awful. Proof was well written and we’ll acted. It was different in the best way. Tnt made a bad call on this obe
