House was a ratings success for FOX for years but the network hasn’t had a hit medical series since then. Will Red Band Society break that trend and be renewed for a second season? Will it be cancelled? Stay tuned.
A dramedy, Red Band Society revolves around the young patients and caretakers of the pediatric ward of the renowned Ocean Park Hospital in Los Angeles. The cast includes Octavia Spencer, Dave Annable, Griffin Gluck, Nolan Sotillo, Charlie Rowe, Astro, Zoe Levin, Ciara Bravo, Mandy Moore, and Rebecca Rittenhouse.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — typically the following morning, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
1/14 update: FOX will air the remaining episodes but there won’t be a second season because…
Final season averages: 0.9 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.81 million total viewers.
Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.

What do you think? Do you like the Red Band Society TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Please don’t cancel this show. I had cancer as a teenager and this show is a great depiction of the daily hospital life. Please bring it back!
I watched all the episodes. The writers have plenty of story lines left however I believe the show has proven it’s point. I’m not sure I need to delve into the medical angst of young kids and teenagers. However, the show was very good!!
Do not cancel this show. It is my favorite.
Please reconsider the cancellation of Red Band Society. It has the potential to help many children/teenagers understand and accept the realization of health issues. This show gives them an outlet to identify with. How many opportunities are there for children with health issues or that of their friends to band with? This show identifies many characters with different issues and yes different outlooks on life. The cool girl who won’t admit she’s infalible, the shy girl who wants to make everyone happy even though she’s scared. The boy who had a place in his world and now it’s gone, the… Read more »
1st off let me say I absolutely love red band society!!! 2nd they have shows about girls doing nothing but drinking and fighting they have shows about heavy set women trying to find love they have a show about virgins a show about dwarfism it would be absolutely absurd to cancel this show how do you think it makes children with these similar illnesses feel…it’s almost just like saying that their stories are not important enough to turn them into a television show my thing is this show has great stories that are realistic I just think that it would… Read more »
Please don’t cancel red band society I love that show and I think it could take over the glee spot on TV and you would get a lot of fans also,me and one of friends love it and it a great show so give a chance please
Although I am not in nearly the same situation as the cast, I feel their teenage striggles. This show hits home for me, and so many other people. It’s funny, dramatic, and sentimental. I really would like the show to continue. Although it is fictional, I feel as if I want to know what happens next with everyone because this show has such a special place in my heart. Please take in to consideration making a second season!! I’m sure the outcome will be great! I love this show, and the characters. Keep on producing it, it’s phenominal!
What is wrong with people? I’m sitting down getting my Red Band Society fix, excited that it was two hours this week and then… BOOM they tell me to stay tuned for the rest of the SERIES FINALE?!? I don’t know if I wanna cry or hit something. This was a great show and I LOVED it, but nobody knew about it so nobody watched it. I feel terrible for the staff of the show and the fans. Plus the last episode did NOT give me any closure at all. Bad call cancelling it. Bad call.

Ugh! Its such a shame that they are canceling the show! It is so freaking good!!!! You can’t just pull it after one season! Please give it another chance!
Please, DON’T CANCEL RED BAND SOCIETY! Red Band Society is a wonderful show, my friends and I absolutely love it!
I just love the Red Band Society! Just found out tonight that it is canceled. I want to know why?! I know ABC is your biggest competitor. I am getting to like their shows less. I just hate Modern Family! The only ones I like by them is The Middle and Greys Anatomy. Where are family values? Red Band Society touches the heart. Please don’t take it away!
Why would you cancel a show that has a great stories to tell the world? Not a lot of people know how a hospital works let alone how the patients are and this a a great way to show the world. Please give it another chance. It’s one of the best shows I’ve seen. It’s not just about cancer but other diseases and problems that some people do have to face everyday.
Fox you are making a big mistake by cancelling Red Band Society. Ever since the show has been on TV it made me cry to see what these kids go through. Even though we know that this is a TV show, there are kids in real life facing the same obstacles each and every day. Not only is this show heartwarming and touches your heart in ways you can’t describe, but it also shows how strong these kids have to fight to stay alive. These teens are just teens fighting an adult fight. People in everyday life find it hard… Read more »
