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.

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?
Why is it that every time we get a decent,well written show with a great plot and very talented actors..it gets cancelled. And we get stuck with the likes of revenge,about a boy, two broke girls, and too many stupid “reality” shows to list? The dumbing down of America continues. I am disgusted
Revolution is a brilliant show. The good shows always get canceled. 🙁
Revolution is an exciting adult show with excellant writing, plot and acting. Shows which should be canceled: Bones acting writing poor; CSI/NCIS fake show; Hell’s Kicthen & Mastercheif Jr, yelling a poor example of communication for Adults/Children/Adolescents, nothing (+) about the shows.
I just heard that they may not renew Revolution!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don’t cancel this show. It is one of the best show on TV, and I’m not in the 18-49 category. I am 60+ and really enjoy this show along with my husband. It is very imaginative and I was looking forward to seeing what happens next season…..if there is a next season. I bought season one and will definitely buy season two.
I really like this show, one of my favorites, please reconsider.
So this show drops in the 4 mil plus range and gets canned. I LOVE LOVE this show. I truly believe it has a serious following and NBC needs to take in to account the show being watched via DVR’s as well as online viewing. This is an excellent stoeyline and one that could be expanded upon with the best writers. I believe J.J. Abrams needs to reconsider the decision unless this was cancelled for other reason beyond a 4 mil plus viewership. I know many families who watched this show and unable to watch it aired and recorded due… Read more »

Nooooooo! Please dont cancel Revolution. So many dumb reality shows. I watch t.v to get away from reality. There are some not too very smart people out there making the worst decisions.
This serious should not end, I think this a lack of respect for the viewer, it also made with Newfoundland, and now Revolution!! I am outraged.

Revolution was our favorite show to watch together as father and daughter time. The show was at a disadvantage with the way the network scheduled the airing of episodes. We loved the show. We hope that it will be renewed on this NBC network or sold to another network which will allow it to continue to grow and develop.
