Last season, it looked like ABC could have a hit with Quantico but the live + same day ratings in the later part of the season were less than half of the premiere’s. It looks like writers are shaking things up in season two. Will this cause the numbers to rebound or, will they continue to fall? Will this thriller drama be cancelled or renewed for a third season? Stay tuned.
On Quantico, Alex Parrish (Priyanka Chopra) has cleared her name, saved millions of people, and was fired by the FBI. Now she’s been given a second chance to serve her country as part of the clandestine ranks of the CIA. This season’s cast includes Jake McLaughlin, Aunjanue Ellis, Yasmine Al Massri, Johanna Braddy, Russell Tovey, Blair Underwood, Pearl Thusi, and Aarón Díaz. In addition, Tracy Ifeachor, David Lim, and Henry Czerny are set to recur.
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.

What do you think? Do you still like the Quantico TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a third season?
5/15 update: Quantico has been renewed for a third season on ABC. Details here.
Please make a season 3. The show has so much potential!
Please make season 3!! You can’t cancel it. There is so much you can do in season 3 and I can’t wait to see what happens!! I stumbled upon this article googling when is season 3 of Quantico starting, because I’m so excited to see it!
Me too just watched season 2.
Boring, stupid, and convoluted!! ridiculous plot Alex Parrish and the actor that plays her is awful naive and dumb all the time with that stupid look on her face and we’re supposed to believe she’s the moral compass for our country and it’s last best hope?! Puhlease…. Harry Doyle is the only interesting character and even his storyline is weak I’ll be really surprised if it gets renewed for another season… you know anyone tuning in for just one episode out of the Season would be hopelessly lost.. again I say: boring , stupid, convoluted, and ridiculous!
its weird …the lead actress is a wannabe .. the acting is bad.. overall the show is a disappointment.
Cancel it’s out of control going back and worth if you blink you don’t know what timeframe you are watching.
Needs a good season 2 finale, come back with some twists in season 3.
I’m surprised that Quantico went past season 1. It cannot be based on merit. The plot line is a mess and to top it all, the lead actress, Priyanka Chopra, cannot ACT! Coudn’t she have gotten her American accent correct. I know from my friends in India that back home she uses a British accent. Such a phony! And she asked it to a prime time American TV shiw. CANCEL the show…please…
The writers, who are obsessed with flashbacks and convoluted plots, have written themselves out of an audience. Clean it up or cancel it.
it NEEDS to be CANCELLED. i was surprised when it even got a season 2. The lead indian bollywood actress cannot act. Apparently she does well in her own country. i can’t see how! Maybe she danced her way into those movies like bollywood people do… lol
cancel quantico for sure! priyanka from india is an awful over-actor . she is doing stuff she can’t handle and she looks weird too. they are trying to make up for the bad acting by putting in unnecessary obscene scenes..
the audience is not a fool and can clearly see that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CANCEL it !!! ….PRIYANKA IS SOO BAD …. she can’t act and looks bad …. the show is also very boring !
I’m surprised S2 got a full a season especially after the massive drop right in the middle of S1. I was covering it with reviews, and in the beginning the show did seem exciting, but the writing, the constant flashbacks, the flip/flopping, and bed hopping… It all strarted to become monotonous, tedious, and making me feel like I was going crazy… Dumbing myself down to try to keep up. ABC really messed up with this one, coulda been great… Ending up tanking as soon as they approved the early renewal, doubt the big Q will get another.
I wish they cancel this show because of Priyanka Chopra. God Awful actress. I know we are crying diversity in Hollywood but give some American born Indians a chance or find someone better. Jezz. She got a super Agent I hear that is forcing all the doors to get her into the limelight. But there is so much you can do when you are wooden in acting.
who is Priyanka’s agent? i was also wondering the same thing. She has just got one TV show to her credit and is being invited to all the award functions irrespective of whether it is on ABC or NBC or CBS.
the audience is not a fool and can clearly see her bad acting and average looks. not to mention her ridiculous music career! she only talks big in interviews… thats it.
Well humble bragging, overacting at award functions and interviews and playing her own drums are her super talents and nowadays people achieve success with these talents. I really feel pity for the people who fall for that crap and its not only her, many out there who just survive based on these talents.Survive is a wrong choice of word; should i say make f***ing insane money and the come on the influential list at last to motivate us.This world is really wierd.
What’s with the time period flashbacks on so many shows lately? That has killed the audience on a good series. People want to relax and enjoy, not work at at.
Not true I enjoy a good plot that’s interesting like how to get away with murder? That’s truly enjoyable this is just been now and awful the lead actresses off of the look out with her lopsided face and her two dimensional acting chops and all of the other boring characters and ridiculous plot the reasons rationale and motivations behind why certain characters would choose to do the things they’re supposedly doing so extreme is totally unbelievable and not like a good fantasy unbelievable but like ridiculous and salting the audience unbelievable… Sun some shows with flashbacks are fun because… Read more »
