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.
Just watched Reckless on Netflix and LOVED it. I want to watch more please
should not be cancelled. really enjoyed the series and seeing a place I have visited often!
Renew Reckless, good drama
I miss my Reckless…When will it be renewed for 2016?
I was hoping that this email was to let me know that CBS had decided NOT to cancel this wonderful program. Please let me know that CBS is reconsidering there decision to cancel this program. I look forward to seeing season two this fall. Reckless was one of my favorite programs please bring it back.
Such a good show!!!
I would like to see a second season of Reckless
I just completed watching season 1 of reckless and I completely enjoyed this show. I couldn’t wait for each episode to begin. I sure hope you will reconsider canceling this show. I believe if this show would run during the fall season it will have better ratings. I will spread the word that this is a wonderful show and that the story lines are very intriguing. Please make this happen and keep me posted. Thanks a “Reckless” fan.
Please keep the series. I loved it and want to see more. There is so much more to the story.
Yes, Yes, please continue this show. I loved it and maybe you should have had a winter season.
I believe Reckless should be renewed for a second season, k loved it
Love this show.
I believe Reckless should be renewed for a second season, my husband and I love the show
It was such a good show. There are several shows that you kept on that should not be on they are really not good. One of those shows is Under the Dome. Please bring it back.
YES!!!!! I don,t understand how CBS got such a low ratings but Reckless is one of the best show this summer by far! The couples, Ann Wood and Cam Gigandet are steaming hot! LOVE his accent. The music is perfect every time for the excact right moments. the suspension is highly intents. although the evident video could be cut shorter, not show too much or too long. The show is extraordinary! PLEASEEEEEEE…….. dont cut them off. RAting has to have been unfair some how due to summer vacations and netflex and other ways of viewing.
