What would be the smart move? The season one finale of Pure Genius just aired on January 26th, and we want to know if you think CBS should cancel or renew the TV show for a second season.
A medical drama, Pure Genius follows a team of doctors as they team up with cutting-edge tech experts and try to push the boundaries of modern medicine to save lives. Doctor Walter Wallace (Dermot Mulroney) is a disgraced but brilliant surgeon who is recruited by a young Silicon Valley tech billionaire, James Bell (Augustus Prew). Wallace learns that Bell is harboring a secret and he begins to question just what the young founder is really trying to achieve. The cast also includes Odette Annable, Reshma Shetty, Aaron Jennings, Ward Horton, and Brenda Song.
Pure Genius debuted on October 27th with middling ratings for CBS. The pilot earned a 1.05 rating in the 18-49 demo and 6.23 million viewers. From there, the numbers only declined. With only 13 episodes under its belt, season one of the series received an average rating of 0.86 in the 18-49 demo and a total of only 5.34 million viewers. The show’s ratings currently rank third to last out of CBS’ 22 scripted series for the 2016-2017 season.
Given the low ratings and CBS’ decision not to order more episodes, it seems likely Pure Genius will be cancelled.
But, we want to know what you think. Should CBS cancel the medical drama or, renew it for a second season? Tell us what you think.
Please do this show again it is one of the interesting and brilliant series on tv.
Please renew this show. It is great and at a time like this with so many killing shows and horror news around the worl it gives us a breathe of fresh air to give us hope in the future and recognize the hardships people go through to just make the world go around and how much they give up in personal lives to save people.
I feel exactly the same way you do..This world has gotten so hard to live in at times, past 4 months especially..This gives you hope, and helps dry tears that fall way too much, that i never had a problem with before…

Great show. Sort of like the modern day House. It had a terrible time slot, please don’t penalize the viewers for that.
Also you can’t leave the show with that kind of cliff hanger! Please, please renew.

I am tired of cbs cancelling shows without them given a chance. especially pure genius which is very good.
Renew it it is a great show and I’m sick and tired of these mindless shoot em up shows don’t need another lawyer show Bull is good enough and Kevin can wait and man with a plan just stupid
Best new show and inspiring. Change the time slot, give it a chance. There are more than enough cop and detective shows on TV. Pure genius is something different that viewers want to see especially for those of us who are not regular CBS viewers. Thank you!
