The Queen of the South TV show has been a top-three Nielsen ratings performer for USA Network, and last year, its drop-off was negligible. TV series tend to shed viewers with age, though. Will that decline begin in the fourth season? How long will this program reign? Will Queen of the South be cancelled or renewed for season five? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
A USA Network drama that’s based on the Spanish-language telenovela and novel La Reina Del Sur by Arturo Pérez-Reverte, Queen of the South stars Alice Braga as Teresa Mendoza, a woman on the run from a powerful drug cartel, who seeks refuge in the U.S. The cast also includes Veronica Falcón, Hemky Madera, Peter Gadiot, Jon-Michael Ecker, Idalia Valles, and Nick Sagar. Chris Greene and Sofia Lama recur in season four, when Teresa expands to New Orleans.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

For comparisons: The third season of Queen of the South averaged a 0.37 rating in the 18-49 year old viewer demographic and a total audience of 1.132 million viewers.
Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you like the Queen of the South TV series? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a fifth season on USA?
*Update: USA Network has renewed the Queen of the South TV show for a fifth and final season.
DO NOT CANCEL QUEEN OF THE SOUTH! BEST SHOW ON TV.
Hail to the Queen! Renew her at once!
Great Show!! It is my favorite and the best show on television. Season 5 should be renewed without question. The nielsen ratings are not an accurate representation of viewership demographics. I know for a fact that there are numerous people between the age of 50 and 65 who watch and love this show because we talk about it all the time.
I love it! Please let there be a season 5!
I Love queen of the south & i hope it’s not cancelled! I’m not able to watch it when it first airs so i can’t help the ratings 🙁 but I really hope it doesn’t get cancelled!!! I’m getting more & more people into the show as well!! I’m also hoping james returns!
Love it
Renew this show. I really enjoy it
Please renew queen of the south!
We absolutely love the show! Truly interesting and a great show after a long time!
Renew! Renew! Renew!
I’ve watched since the beginning. Love Theresa’s spirit – strong, yet vulnerable.
Sadly, her success has changed the way I view the storyline… She heads a drug cartel, and tho she wants to play fair, she’s still selling harmful drugs; not marijuana but drugs that destroy people’s lives.
I haven’t read the book so I don’t know how Theresa’s story ends. Would love to see her identify all the world leaders in this awful trade, even if she died in her quest. She’d be a hero deserving of true respect.
I believe Totally it Should be Renewed!!!
Me and my daughter love the show. We couldn’t wait for season 4 to come out. My family sat a watched really good the first episode looking forward to the next episodes. . Will Camilla show up again in New Orleans umm would love to see that.
Queen of the South should be renewed for a 5th season.
I would love a season 5, I am addicted to this show, was sad when I heard this was their last season
Best show in years
