Last spring, this ABC show fell in the ratings over the course of its first season. The network renewed Resurrection anyway. Was that a mistake? Will the ratings keep falling so that it’s cancelled? Or, will they rise so that it’ll be renewed for a third season? Stay tuned.
On Resurrection, a small town in Missouri is turned upside down when long-dead loved ones return after 30 years. The cast includes Omar Epps, Frances Fisher, Matt Craven, Devin Kelley, Mark Hildreth, Samaire Armstrong, Sam Hazeldine, Landon Gimenez, and Kurtwood Smith.
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.
11/9 update: Should ABC have cancelled this series instead?
Final season averages: 1.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 4.67 million total viewers.

Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.
For comparisons: The first season of Resurrection averaged a 2.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 9.32 million viewers.
Note: 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 Resurrection TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a third season?
Keep it… its a break from all the other mundane crap out there.
I loveee this show , it’s so interesting please keep it on air . Did the how view last Sunday 16??
It wasn’t on last Sunday and it won’t be on this Sunday either. It will be back on November 30th! Let’s get those ratings up. Please don’t cancel this show.

I love love love and enjoy this show sooooo much. Please DO NOT cancel it, make the third season!!!!!!
I love, love, love this show and it just keeps getting better. Don’t cancel!!!!!
Interesting premise, slow development. As with all network TV, the pace is glacial. Take a tip from cable: punch it up, push the envelope, don’t be predictable. Maybe…better writers?
Keep Resurrection on. I watch it religiously every week. There are obvious fans of the show. Don’t cancel.
I love this show it is original, and it keeps me watching every week. I know the first season was a little slow going at first but it has really picked up the pace this season and in my opinion it’s only getting better. It would be a real shame if it were to get canceled.
I agree with Jenn. It keeps me watching and guessing. I like that I get to think about what it all means instead of getting all of the answers at once. And now slowly, but surely answers are coming and new questions come up, like what was with Rachel’s dream? I really don’t want this show to get cancelled. I will stop watching ABC if it is.
I love, love, love this show and it just keeps getting better. Don’t cancel!!!!!
Resurrection is one of my favorite tv programs, I watched it last season, and I am watching again this season. Hope it isn’t taken off like a few of my other programs.
I love this show…watched it last year and will continue to watch.
I passed on this show this year. By the end of season 1 I really didn’t care what happened anymore.
