Last season, Revolution was the highest-rated show on NBC but the ratings fell throughout the season, even with The Voice as a lead-in. What will happen now that the show’s been moved to Wednesdays? Will it see a third season or will it be cancelled instead? We’ll have to wait and see.
Revolution revolves around the Matheson family and others who live in a world where there is no longer any power. The cast includes Billy Burke, Tracy Spiridakos, Giancarlo Esposito, Zak Orth, David Lyons, JD Pardo, Stephen Collins, and Elizabeth Mitchell.
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.
5/9 update: NBC has cancelled Revolution after two seasons and 44 episodes.
5/22 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page or view it here.
For comparisons: The first season of Revolution averaged a 2.6 rating in the demo and 7.21 million 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 still like the Revolution TV series? Would you like to see it cancelled or renewed for third season?
I wonder if anyone of importance will read this.
* Be consistent, the show is on 3 weeks in a row then off for 2 then on for 2 off for 2 ………………..
* Keep the writers you start with, the plot has gone every week ( when it’s on ) the plot is one of the main 4 characters gets caught and the other 3 break them out , and I that’s every week.
you lost me months ago, from Australia 43 year old
Its my favorite show to date…u have to enjoy sci-fi, which I do, and the actors themselves…its fun, there’s AWESOME sword fighting, shooting, and nonstop drama…I enjoyed: LOST, Breaking Bad, and Dexter, Sopranos, Fringe…I’m not a big fan of: House of Cards, Mad Men, or Sons of Anarchy, even though I watched each series to the very end…I think that the actors are amazing, but Dr Gene makes me frustrated, cuz hes such a *****, lol…I like Monroes ,”come back”, and his son joining the crew, CAUTION BIG SPOILER: I wish someone would have had a nanotech to jam into… Read more »
NBC is a good network when it comes to airing sports and news. They really lose it when it comes to their prime-time weekly programs. Revolution is one of the best programs NBC has aired in a long time. It ranks right up there with Fox “24”, “Prison Break” and many others as far as content, intensity and intrigue. A lot of NBC’s other programming is boring and mundane. I think NBC needs to cancel some of their executive producers and give their viewers a reason to tune in on prime-time.
I am 15 and I love the tv show revolution it has been my addiction ever sence it started. I love it and I really wish they continue it.
Renew ….. and I wish the 18 – 49 age group they supposedly use to decide whether to renew or cancerl would STOP….I am 60 and love this show(and a lot of others)…but does my opinion count…NO…WHY? ..I am still alive and watch and love the same shows ….I may be over the hill but I ain’t dead yet!
One of the best shows on tv. NBC has done it a disservice by constantly preempting. Put it back on monday night and leave it alone.
Also have watched every episode and hope the series is renewed.
I’m so sick of tv shows being renewed or cancelled base on 18-49 year olds. That age group does not watch tv, they are out partying or raising their kids. Bunch of BS no one cares about the older age groups who do all the tv watching.
I totally agree with you.

This is my favorite show currently on Network TV. NBC has done it a disservice by changing it from Mondays to Wednesdays . It has also caused a change in ratings due to its constant interruptions in scheduling due to unpredictable breaks. It most certainly needs to be renewed for a 3rd season. I am sure that many other fans would agree
I agree! I didn’t even know it was going in a break! I just realized there weren’t previews for the following week and each week after that I checked and nothing was there! Pretty upsetting 🙁
I love this show!!! Please bring it back! I watch it every week!!!!
DO NOT CANCEL THIS SHOW !!!!!! This is the best show on prime time !!!!!! Great characters with very talented cast.
The thing with the ratings kind of throws me off. We now live in a world where the average human being has to work two jobs to put food on the table. We completely miss primetime television. The ratings that they put up are very inaccurate. Don’t they understand that nowadays, most people watch Netflix and Hulu? I’m the type of guy that misses everything all week long, but then on a sunday when i have time to relax, I’ll marathon watch Revolution, Believe, Resurrection, The 100, Deadbeat, and many more!! They need to take the people who watch it… Read more »
Exactly. I don’t have regular TV like satellite or cable because I refuse to pay that much for tv that I don’t watch. I just have Hulu and Netflix. They need to count the binge watchers as they seem to call us these days
I agree. Like you I don’t watch it as soon as it comes on cause I have a life that makes it where I can’t. Also I refuse to pay that much for satellite or cable when I don’t watch alot of it. So I rely on Huluplus and Netflix to get my shows. They need to count the binge watchers as they seem to call us these days
Great story. Couldn’t wait for Wednesday to watch. It deserves to be renewed and the story played out.
I watch every episode love this series. What I don’t like is waiting so long for a new episode to come on. Hope it gets renewed I think there is more story to tell.
