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?
I can’t believe that I finally found a good program to watch that caught my attention. What is wrong with the tv crew that makes those decisions. Not all of us like reality shows……….
The series was terrific. We just happened on it one evening. When I started to tell people about it no one had ever heard of it, but we’re hooked after watching one episode. Why not advertise it??? Plus, it aired right in the middle of summer when half the country was vacationing. The acting was wonderful and the subject was very thought provoking. Of all the violent programs aired, it is hard for me to believe such a thought provoking , well acted series would not be renewed. People I had told about it called to say they could not… Read more »
Proof was the most interesting tv serie this year. I am so disapointed becouse TNT decided to cancelled it. I bet if that serie had had sex, vampires and drugs with some bizarre argue still on air. I would like to know what happened, what they found, why the spirits dont have autorization to talk with Caoline…what happen with the inestigation group, the vident and the friends?.. so frustrated… Please, forgive me if I writte mispelings or grammar mistakes…english is not my mother lenguage. Thanks to read me.
i bet you that if they had some sex in this show instead of it being a clean, make sense show, with people using foul language, drugs, showing tand a the ratings would have been better. you think. you know j. beals did not just do the L Word, she did many more things. i think not renewing this show is a personal attack on her. just remember everyone has to pay bills, and taxes. j.b tnt not renewing is another mistake, like the chicago code, I saw you in the Book of Eli, you had a small part but… Read more »
SO HAVE YOU CHANGED YOUR MINDS ABOUT BRING PROOF BACK. NO PROBABLY NOT. PERHAPS YOU DON’T SEE IT LIKE WE DO **** THE RATINGS. THE TIME SLOT SUCKED. PUT IT ON EARLIER, A DIFFERENT DAY, TRY SOMETHING ELSE, YOU ARE NOT EVEN THINKING ABOUT THIS ARE YOU. VENTURE NO. YOU JUST HAVE IDIOTS LIKE ME PLEADING, WRITING TO YOU TO PUT IT ON FOR ANOTHER SEASON, HEY MAYBE IT REALLY DID SUCK. MAYBE SOMEONE HIRED ALL THESE PEOPLE TO SAY IT WAS GOOD HOW THEY LOVED IT YOU THINK
This series was excellent! I looked forward to each episode, and couldn’t wait for Season 2. I found the series by accident, so you definitely need to advertise so others know about it. Please bring Proof back!
TNT GIVE IT UP YOU ARE A BUNCH OF ********. PROOF IS OVER WE GET OVER OUT LOVED ONES DYING WE WILL GET OVER THIS. YOU SUCK
I can’t believe it had low ratings! I can’t believe it got cancelled. I would have definitely watched season 2.
Bring it back. Good show.
I’m so very disappointed to learn that Proof has been cancelled. I LOVED this series, everything about it: the premise, the characters, the actors and acting… I just happened, by accident, to find this series, was intrigued by the subject matter, and watched an episode. One episode was all it took. I recorded the series and enjoyed every episode. I was anxious to see what season 2 brought! I think this show has a vastly broader appeal than was apparent, and would have captured that broad audience had the network simply advertised it. Like I stated, I found it completely… Read more »
HOW LONG CAN YOU HOLD YOUR BREATH…………………………………
Figures, the good die young (TV Shows)….. Best show on TV, give it another chance, advertise it better, give it a 8/9 pm time slot… Add a new actor/actress to the show, do some thing !, sell the rights to another cable station.. Add aliens, guest appearance from Dr. Raymond Moody .. How about adding a new Actor, a Quantum Physics professor from MIT. So much potential for this show!!
somebody throw us a bone. better yet a greenie. SO PROOF IS DONE. WHY DON’T YOU STOP TAKING ALL THE FANS THAT ARE SICK THAT YOU DID NOT GIVE IT ANOTHER YEAR. ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THEY LEFT A CLIFFHANGER. WELL TNT HAS TO BE THE ONE TO CHANGE IT AROUND. HAS TNT GIVEN ANY REASONS BESIDES THE LOW RATINGS, WHICH THE SOPRANO’S WHEN THEY STARTED GOT SUCKY RATINGS, BUT THEY DID NOT CANCEL THEM. BUT I LIKE TO THINK I AM A BIT EDUCATED NOT ALOT, EVERYONE, LET’S GIVE IT UP. ARE THEY TAKING A POLL. TO SEE WHAT PEOPLE THINK.… Read more »
I have been sitting here watching all the episodes again and wondering if the show was
Renewed. Checked and sadly I see it has not. LOVED, LOVED LOVED the show please reconsider.
You need to advertise it more. Great topic.
i could not believe Proof got canceled. A show that had depth, spark my interest, I could relate to the near death experience because it happened to me, and the acting was wonderful! Just because there wasn’t any sex or violence doesn’t mean the show was not interesting. I looked forward to that show weekly. If possible, advertise it more, better, on other channels from the cable/satellite stations and bring it back! I love Rissolie n Isles because Angie Harmon is funny but Jennifer Beals is a great actress! Bring Proof back!
