Despite having a very strong lead-in (The Vampire Diaries), the Reign TV show drew only mediocre ratings last season. The CW renewed it for a second season anyway. Will it survive to see a third season or will it be cancelled this time around? Stay tuned.
This season of Reign picks up after the death of King Henry and Mary has finally become queen. Is it all that she expected? The cast of this historical drama includes Adelaide Kane, Torrance Coombs, Megan Follows, Toby Regbo, Celina Sinden, Caitlin Stasey, Anna Popplewell, Jonathan Keltz, and Sean Teale.
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.
1/11 update: Reign and seven other shows have been renewed for the 2015-16 season.
Final season averages: 0.39 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.08 million total viewers.

These are the final national numbers (unless noted with an “*”). These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
For comparisons: The first season of Reign averaged a 0.6 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.57 million total viewers.
What do you think? Do you like the Reign TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a third season?

AWESOME SHOW!! PLEASE RENEW and make the season LONGER!!!!!!!
In love with this show. Please don’t cancel! Didn’t know asap about it until now on Netflix.
Love love love Reign
please don’t cancel I NEVER miss an episode!!! Please please please!!!
I am a 55yr old hispanic woman, so not really in the core demographics for the CW network. I don’t watch much TV, but definitely schedule my Thursday nights around “Reign”. I’m not surprised with the ratings, but totally blame it on network scheduling. How do they expect to hold an audience when there are huge gaps of time between episodes? I have pretty much quit watching nighttime TV because the other networks do the same.
Loved this show from the pilot going forward. Can’t wait to watch recording as soon as I’m home on Friday. The music, pageantry and plots are very entertaining. I am very happy there will be a season 3!
Just seen tonight’s episode! Love this show! Renew, Renew, Renew!!!
I love this show and yes I think it should be renewed! It’s one of my favorite shows.
Hoping there is a season 3. Look forward to watching this show every Thursday. Why is
it that excellent shows like this one are cancelled and shows that are geared for people with the IQs of beans get renewed year after year after year? I agree with Skye; RENEW, RENEW, RENEW.
I think this show must be renewed. Maybe the plot could get a better written. Because Season 2= Ruin.
I would like see anothers Mary´s seasons of her life. Her second husband, her son.
This show has gone downhill fast. I was very happy it was renewed for season 2 and I had even higher hopes for the second half of this season after the incredible and powerful Acts of War, but it’s been mostly a swift decline and a major disappointment since then. At this point, I can’t even care that it’s been renewed and I’m not sure that it should have been or that I’ll keep watching if things don’t make a big turn before the end of the season.
Reign is one of my “can’t miss” shows. Love the pageantry, the intrigue, costumes, story line – ALL of it. Please renew it for your loyal viewers.
Love this show! Love the drama, the intrigue, the costumes, the characters, the (semi-accurate) history! Renew,renew,renew Reign!
Need this renewed!
I sure hope there is a season 3. I hate it when you start getting into a show and ” BAM” Were not going to make it any more. So here is hoping. Thank you DD
There will be a season 3 as the show was renewed…unfortunately. I am still holding out a sliver of hope that with these horrible ratings the show will finally be cancelled, pushed back to a worse time slot or get its episode count drastically reduced. This show should not even have gotten a S2, let alone S3!
The only reason why I can’t wait to go home after work on thursdays
