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.

DO NOT CANCEL AWESOME SHOW
I never watch television but was hooked on Reckless. Please keep this show!
Great location ,lots of politics,good romance
Please, please DO NOT CANCEL this show. I love it! Such a good story line, the secrets that come to surface, I love the characters and would like to see where they are going! Plus watching it is very nostalgic for me! I grew up in the south and it’s very refreshing for me to see series take place in the south also. That’s why I was thrilled with NCIS New Orleans being added this fall!
Love the show. Please do not cancel it. There is hardly anything on during the summer. My husband even like the show.
Please do NOT cancel. Could watch it all day and night. Fantastic stars and great plot line. Please renew.
I love Reckless please renew
