Last season, the ratings for Reign came way down but The CW renewed the series for a third season anyway. Now, the execs have moved it to Friday nights, an even tougher night to attract viewers. How will the drama perform this season? Will it be cancelled or is it certain to be renewed for a fourth season because of syndication profits? Stay tuned.
At the start of season three of Reign, Mary and Francis realize that they are more powerful together than apart. It also introduces us to the royal court of Elizabeth, “Virgin” Queen of England. The cast of this historical drama includes Adelaide Kane, Torrance Coombs, Megan Follows, Toby Regbo, Celina Sinden, Caitlin Stasey, Anna Popplewell, Jonathan Keltz, Sean Teale, Craig Parker, Rose Williams, Rachel Skarsten, and Ben Geurens.
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.
3/11 update: The CW has renewed this TV show and 10 others for the 2016-17 season.
6/21 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 second season of Reign averaged a 0.39 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.08 million 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 Reign TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for an fourth season?
I love this show. Not many good shows out there. I hope they keep the show going.
pleaseeeeeee don’t cancel reign!!
I am no longer watching cw network shows anymore
Reign, Hawaii Five O and Dallas then off to bed.
love the show it better then lot shows
Has reign been switched to Sunday’s at 8? My DVR recorded episode 3 on sUn.Oct 25, but I cannot find it anywhere for the following week. What’s going on?
As far as I know Reign is on Friday
It might’ve been preempted in your area on Fri Oct 24 so it insured on Sun..Reign took the last Fri of Oct off & returns Fri Niv 6.Or perhaps you live outside the US and Reign airs on a different night there( it airs on Thurs in Canada for example).But in the US it airs on Fri
I hope for a renewal!
Renew
REIGN will do fine with loyal viewers. Too many people criticize everything and take the joy out of it for those of us who never complain. Thursday nights sucked egg for REIGN. Friday nights are fine. DVR it, watch it live, rewatch, do whatever to assure this show gets more seasons. I love REIGN. Best show ever.
Love it….
Since Reign started as Mary Stuart’s story, I think the series should end with Mary’s return yo Scotlanf and her death in England. It would be appropriate to end it off like that since Elizabeth would also be involved. It could be Mary and Elizabeth’s ending. It wouldn’t feel quite comeplete if they don’t renew with this season being the last.
Why do you feel reign needs to stay true to history? Let it be, stop ruining it for the true fans of this show who enjoy it for what it is, love the characters, and who could care less about it following historical events. If that’s what you wish to see, watch a documentation I’m sure there is one out there.
I hope Reign lasts a few more seasons
This is a good show. Too bad the powers that be chose this horrible time slot for it – Early Friday evening when most people aren’t even home.
I like this series … It was interesting so I overlooked “a few” inaccuracies and kinda got hooked. So now I am looking forward to a believable last season, I do not think that is asking too much. CW, thanks for a good 3 seasons of a pretty good if not entertaining show … my opinion, thanks …
Love the show. Last nights episode series opener did no air because of a football game that ran long. My DVR was set and if course got an hour of sports. You will not get your ratings with this happening. Now I just want to see the season premiere and it is not schedule to air again here in Chattanooga.
