Legal and crime dramas are a big part of the CBS schedule during the year. This summer, the network started airing another one — Reckless. Has this new TV show been a ratings success? Will it be renewed for a second season or, will it be cancelled instead?
Reckless revolves around a beautiful litigator from the north and a charming southern attorney who must hide their intense mutual attraction as a police sex scandal erupts in Charleston, South Carolina. The TV show’s cast includes Cam Gigandet, Anna Wood, Shawn Hatosy, Georgina Haig, Adam Rodríguez, Michael Gladis, Kim Wayans, and Gregory Harrison.
The series debuted in late June to just a 0.7 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 3.99 million total viewers. That was a very poor start for a scripted series — even one that airs during the summer months when expectations are lower.
Reckless’ ratings have held fairly steady and have even seen some slight improvements at times. That’s positive but the series is still the network’s lowest-rated summer series — by far. With such low ratings, it’s hard to imagine that CBS will consider renewing Reckless for a second season.
For now, CBS has only scheduled 10 of the 13 episodes. Hopefully for the loyal fans, all of the episodes will air and the series will have a satisfying conclusion.
But, what do you think? Do you like the Reckless series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
10/9 update: CBS has cancelled Reckless after one season. Details here.
Love love love the show. Has been my favorite of the summer. Please do not cancel this show. My new favorite show..
loved it should be renewed
Renew!!!! I’m addicted to this show. It is action and drama packed! It definitely will become a big hit!!!
I watched the first show and said to myself “I’m not going to get involved in another show” and thought I would watch only that episode. I have watched every show and can’t wait each week to see the next one. Please bring it back another season. I love it!!
Love the show. I sincerely hope it is renwed. Give it a chance! PLEASE!
Favorite show! Please don’t cancel!!!!!
Love watching Reckless! Great chemistry between the
actors and I can hardly wait for the next show to air! Please don’t cancel and good show!
Love the show. Just watched the Season Finale, which really sets up for a continuation. Hope it continues. I would definately watch it.
I hope the series is renewed
I enjoy watching the show
I think the characters are enticing
ABSOLUTELY RENEW It!
Favorite show. Don’t cancel !!!
This series could be a money maker for CBS. !! There are so many different angles to this story apart from the sexual chemistry between Roy and Jaime. The sub plots alone make great viewing and no doubt all the different plots could be extended . Surely tonight’s finale isn’t all there is !! What a huge disappointment if it is.
Truly love it a bunch. Your ratings are probably low because you put it on on a Saturday night when individuals are out for the night or outside enjoying the beautiful weather. Try another night, your reviews I bet will grow drastically.
Please renew this great show–it’s so much better than some of the other CBS shows! And it’s different from all your other cookie cutters!
Renew!!!
Love it
This is my favorite TV show! Please DO NOT cancel it.
