As fans are likely aware, Ripper Street was cancelled but was then revived for a third season thanks to a deal with Amazon. Do the ratings on BBC America really matter? Likely not as much as they used to but it’s still fun to follow along and see how the show’s doing.
This season of Ripper Street picks up four years after Edmund Reid (Matthew Macfadyen), Bennet Drake (Jerome Flynn), and Homer Jackson (Adam Rothenberg) split and isolated themselves from one another. Others in the cast include MyAnna Buring, Charlene McKenna, Clive Russell, David Wilmot, and David Dawson.
Below are the show’s TV ratings, typically the best way to tell if the series will be cancelled or renewed. These figures will be updated as the weeks progress.
5/13 update: Ripper Street has been renewed for both season four and season five.
Final season averages: 0.03 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 190,000 total viewers.

Cable ratings are typically released within a day or so of the show’s airing, except for in the case of weekends and holidays. They are sometimes harder to come by so there may be occasional delays or gaps.
What do you think? Do you still like the Ripper Street TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a fourth season?
I loved everything about this series. I never expected to like it so much but it’s so entertaining which says alot these days. I watched all shows including season 5 and I’m keeping my fingers crossed that there will be more to come. I was very sad when I got to the end of season 5.
Love ripper street glad they are bringing it back for season four and five…just power watched it on Netflix. ..one of the best series I have seen for a long long time….please spread the word get your friends and family to watch it and give it a shot they wil so be hooked like the rest of us.
Love Ripper Street and Copper – great shows – was sorry to see Copper disappear!
We LOVE this series, please, please it bring back for seasons 4 and 5. We actually make time to watch the programing when it is scheduled! We seldom record anything anymore. If we can’t make time for it, we don’t watch it!
This is one of those exceptional programs that combines a super cast, good writing and great acting!
Please do not deprive the American public from enjoying them!!???!!

I love the show I don’t care if nobody watches it BBC America is not someplace everybody goes to watch TV but it is a great channel with great shows
FABULOUS SHOW! Season 3 was great! I know Ripper Street’s been renewed for season 4 and 5, Sure hope BBC America plans to air them too, as they did season 3.
sooo glad to hear this great show will be back cant wait now
Love this show. I also loved Copper. Don’t understand why American audiences do not find this show. Quality shows are scarce, sad to see how moronic my fellow Americans are in their choice of entertainment.
I love the show but how in the world is this show staying on the air with these dismal numbers!?
