For the first time, there’s no danger that the Reign TV show will be cancelled by The CW. It’s already been announced that the historical drama series is ending and there won’t be a fifth season. Will it go out with strong ratings or, will they continue to decline? Stay tuned.
Following the devastating loss of her husband, Mary Queen of Scots (Adelaide Kane) saw his young brother take the throne. In season four of Reign, Mary must rise to the challenge to take back her country and establish her rule in Scotland — the land of her birth and now, once again, her home. The CW series also stars Megan Follows, Rachel Skarsten, Celina Sinden, Craig Parker, Rose Williams, Ben Geurens, Dan Jeannotte, Jonathan Goad, Spencer MacPherson, and Will Kemp.
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 — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
6/17 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated charts, please try reloading the page. You can also see them here.
For comparisons: The third season of Reign averaged a 0.30 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 970,000 total viewers.
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Reign TV show on The CW? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a fifth season instead?
If you do not want Reign Cancelled, I highly advise you to not post it here, so much as WRITE TO THE NETWORK. Tell them how much time you spend ON the network, how many shows you currently watch there and how many shows you will STOP watching there should they cancel Reign. The only way to get a corporation to do something different is by uprising. Make them FEAR loosing revenue. You can do this by starting a petition, and I would suggest you include age, sex and family size on a petition. The network needs to fear loosing… Read more »
Agreed! Should be on in place of a less valuable series on a major Network. Keep REIGN going…..great way to keep historical events and people alive. The actors are excellent. Thanks for a wonderful series.
I am so discussed. This is one of my favorite shows. I love this show, The reason this show is struggling is #no 1, it does not get enough press, you hardly ever see it advertised. I found it by channel surfing. #no 2 Sorry to say, but if it were on ABC< NBC< or CBS, I think it would have done much better. the cast hasn't been on any talk shows that I know about. How come . these actors never got nominated for any, They are some of the finest actors on TV. Everyone of them deserved an… Read more »
Please renew Reign, I love this show!!! I’m so sad knowing this is the last season. There is so much more to come. Please keep this show going.
Please keep this show on the air!! there are very few good shows worth watching!! The cheesy acting and crude humor sitcoms are all that is left.
This is one of the few high class, good acting and good story line shows still airing!!
Please renew Reign for another season!!!! I love watching it!!!
I love reign!!!! I want a season 5,6,7 and so fourth! I feel maybe better advertising for show would get ratings up.
I vote for a season 5 please 😉
I am completely hooked on “REIGN”. Discovered on Netflix — watched all 3 seasons and was very disappointed to see the last episode. Researched to discover the upcoming Season 4 — impatiently waited, am now watching consistently on CW “and” re-watching on Netflix. Please renew for Season 5.
I hope you consider another season (or two) for Reign. It is one of my “do not miss” shows and there is so much more of Mary’s life to be told.
The one sucky thing about a show about RL history is that, you might be able to prolong or change a bit of things/stuff BUT in the END, YOU MUST FOLLOW HISTORY..And history has her dying…Well, at least she has a child that become KING of a Kingdom that off-ed her..LOL..
Love this show. Season 3 for me was okay and I was really mad when they killed Francis off and vowed not to watch it again. However I ended up getting back into it even though I miss Francis every show. I actually have taken to watching season 1 again and season two before it got bad w/that ‘Other’guy.. However, season 4 is rocking it like season one did! I can’t wait every week to see the next episode. I really wish they would give one more season a try. I watch it on the CW channel within a week… Read more »
I hope you understand they killed off the King Francis because HE DIED IN REAL LIFE. The series is based on the true story of Mary Queen of Scots. They could not have Francis live and be anywhere CLOSE to factual.What I hope is that they are able to either rush through Mary’s final demise under Queen Elizabeth I OR they will extend it for however many episodes it takes to get through to the TRUE end.
Yes, please, please give Reign a fifth season! I have watched the whole four seasons and definitely want more. Great acting and stories!!!
I agree with everyone. I want Reign to be renewed. I have watched it since the first episode.that would be very disappointing if Reign is not renewed. Mary is a great actress and strong woman. We need shows like Reign. Please renew Reign.
please keep reign, I love it. With popular shows like The Royals on E.
Or Victoria on Masterpiece Theatre on PBS. There must be a market larger than myself to keep it going.
I really enjoy reign and would love to see more of it, every show that I get into gets cancelled for some reason but I’d hate to see that happen with Reign, it’s been one of my favorite shows since it was released. I hope they chose to renew it for a season 5, I want to see what new things will happen with Mary. She’s a very inspirational character and I’ve seen her grow up these past few years. I love this show so I hope they renew it for a season 5!
I want Reign to stay on the air. It’s one show that I absolutely love. It is nice to have a show like this to relax with. I usually tape it on my dvr so I can watch 2 at a time. I just cannot get enough. Please air season5. I was hoping this show would go on for some 12 years. Love it KEEP IT.
Hey, Lisa I agree with you and hope they renew it also, the show is amazing!
