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.
keep it love this show
I love this show. Reckless is a great show. Definitely there should be a 2nd season.
You have to renew this!!! This show was an amazing show!! Please we want to see what happens next!
I loved this show and look forward to seeing it return
I loved the show and sincerely hope CBS renews it for a Season 2.
We really enjoyed RECKLESS! And would be sorely disappointed to have it end this way with no conclusions! I hope CBS realizes how annoying it is for the viewers to be left in the lurch with no answers! And this show was more rntertaining than most of the junk shown on television all summer! Please show the remaining episodes and maybe a true finale movie if you just cannot renew it!
Loved all the characters,romance, courtroom suspense and the location . The Charleston location was a wonderful breath of fresh air from the usual L.A. or New York . What a treat it was to anticipate this show each week. Please re- new for next season.
Viewed the finale of Reckless last night and I hope it gets a 2nd season. Reckless finale left many unanswered questions which would make a 2nd season good start. I thought some of the acting and dialogue was weak at times especially from “Roy”…for me needs more emotion and less soap opera staging. Liked the locale of Charleston and all the beautiful sites. In closing hope Reckless comes back for a 2nd season and revamps and improves and becomes a 1st tier show.
This show was one of the best! Can’t believe I missed the finale due to CBS changing the night and not knowing about it!!!-
Do you have on demand if so you can watch it there
Love the show keep it on
I know. I missed it too. I was so disappointed that I missed it.
Me and my husband just love this show. Please bring it back.
Love this show . It is the only show that has held my interest.. Much more than satisfaction or rush. Yet these will probably be renewed and a good show like reckless probably will not. It is well done and well acted, and hold’s your interest. Please show good taste, and renew!
One of the best shows on tv these days and there are only a few, Reckless and Unforgettable are at the top. Right there with the NCIS shows. They both make you want to see more! Your nuts if you cancel Reckless or Unforgetable
Great location, as mentioned above, interesting characters, and a nice ending each week. It’s a pleasure to watch. Give it another chance!
Must come back for a second season
Please renew RECKLESS!!! The show grows on you.
It really isn’t fair to start a show late in the Summer Season and not give it a real chance by renewing it for another season. Some people who would like it may not have seen it.. Give it more time! At least show the 13 espisodes. We want to know what happened to “Dec” and most of all what happens between Janie and Roy!!!
Please, Please bring it back!
Love this show. Please bring it back.
Love,love this show.
