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.
THE BEST show this summer! definitely deserves at least another season. Sexy, sassy, smart, intriguing, twisted. It had it all. And if it runs in autumn it will gain even better ratings.
My wife and I look forward to watching Reckless it is a little different than other TV shows
Great show do not cancel. Btw football killed the part 1 and 2 for me, was out of town and it did not record all of it
you can see the entire finale at “on demand.”
PLEASE….JUST STARTED RECKLESS AND WATCHED ALL SERIES SEASON !
IT WAS GREAT GREAT
PLEASE GO ON TO SEASON 2
Granted, the show started slow but I was totally hooked by the finale! Hope it gets renewed! Plus, I live in Charleston and it us really fun to occasionally see the camera crews and sets. Never seen an actor or actress, however. Perhaps next season??
PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL RECKLESS. I LOVE THAT SHOW.
Please do not cancel this show. My husband and I both enjoy it!
I think this show is a keeper . I just love it
Loved it! Hope for another season!
Do not cancel this show. Give this show a major chace. Maybe move this show to another week night. Perhaps Thursday nughts or Tuesday nights. And perhaps if this show is renewed. Bring a surprise star on the show. The beautiful Emily Procter from csimiami. She doesn’t have to play calleigh Duquesne. But if so. Let calleugh Duquesne have her own series . Meaning Emily Procter should be the boss of her own spin off.♥
Reckless is an awesome show! Please renew for second season.
Please, please do not cancel Reckless. The drama and the sexual tension is compelling. Can not wait to see Roy and Jamie get together! Fell in love with Charleston so we are planning a trip there.
Please give Reckless a 2nd season, enjoyed it very much!
My husband and I love the show. Please renew for another season.
One of the best show on T.V. and with
outstanding cast ..
