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.
Really enjoy the show but they’ve gone overboard with all of the fans. Note to CBS-they have air conditioning in Charleston!

KEEP IT!! PLEASE???
I really enjoy the show and I was looking forward to coming back. It leaves had a fairly good storyline. Broadcasting on Sunday night is difficult to find an audio on Sunday nights but it seems to do fairly well. I hope CBS will reconsider.
Please keep this show on I really enjoyed watching it . Its like a soap
There aren’t many crime drama shows that I can’t figure out ahead of time, but this one got me good! I didn’t see the season ending coming at all! Please, please, keep this one!!
Keep it!
Love it – Keep it
i love reckless and hope it will be renewed. it would help if their was more stability on the shows schedule…it seemed like it was often on different times and different nights.
what gives??? also alittle more exposure couldn’t hurt. it almost seems like it was set up to fail from the beginning……
