The team members on the Pure Genius TV show work together to save lives. It’s a noble cause but will their stories attract enough viewers to bring big ratings? Will this new CBS TV series be cut down in its prime (cancelled) or, will it be renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
Pure Genius follows top medical professionals 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. Others on the team are played by Odette Annable, Reshma Shetty, Aaron Jennings, Ward Horton, and Brenda Song.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival.

5/15/17 update: CBS has cancelled Pure Genius after one season. Details here.
One of my favourite shows. Love the characters. It’s truly inspirational. Why do they always cancel the good ones?
I really enjoyed pure genius. A different kind of medical tv show. Hope it is renewed.

Please do not cancel Pure Genius. We love the show. It is different from other shows, which are all beginning to be indistinguishable. You have a winner here; give it a chance.
We look forward to see Pure Genius every week. Now that season 1 is over it seems like something is missing. Please renew for season 2.
The wife and I enjoy watching the show
We love this show! Pleased don’t cancel it!
Absolutely love this show! one off the best “medical related” shows. It gives people hope, in medicine, technology and the human spirit. Please please keep this show on air…
I have just finished watching season one in the U.K. On the universal channel. Got hooked very quickly and love how it shows hope and dedication. I Looked up to see if season two had an airing date and came across possibility of not having another season. So I find myself writing this comment. I hope CBS do decide to air season two. Especially to see how bunker hill does after that cliffhanger. Have got everything crossed to see another season!
Yes please continue this show. I believe that the future medical field will actually follow this TV series.
We love this show and dvr it if we cant watch on the day.
Great show it gives people hope because it incorporates technology and modern medicine. A show worth keeping.
This show is one of the best I’ve seen in a long time! Right now, our world needs all the Bunkerhill hope and innovation it can get!
Absolutely cracking tv series, we long the week away for the next episode. Brilliant.
