Debuting in 2010, Rizzoli & Isles has been TNT‘s most-watched scripted series and, last season, viewership grew. Will the ratings continue to climb or start to fall? Is a sixth season essentially guaranteed? Could this show possibly be cancelled anytime soon? Stay tuned!
Rizzoli & Isles revolves around the unlikely but very effective partnership of police detective Jane Rizzoli (Angie Harmon) and medical examiner Doctor Maura Isles (Sasha Alexander). Co-starring on the series are Jordan Bridges, Bruce McGill, Lorraine Bracco, and Brian Goodman.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

What do you think? Do you like the Rizzoli & Isles TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a sixth season?
CANCELLED!! What is TNT thinking? The actors are talented— the show is well written—-and if it was having rating problems they never tried a new day or time. One of my favorite shows ends because your worried about the 18-40 year olds. They don’t watch TV or pay for it!!! Their parents do!
BRING BACK RIZZOLI & ISLES
Don’t cancel, too good of a show
I love this show!!! Cried when season ended. This was a great show which are few on all of TV.
i wish that the show would stay on because it is good show too much realty show now me and my wife love this show come on please kept the show on don;t let go off the cast of show make it great and funny but greatso too the cast of the show fight for the show to kept it on thank two of your bset fans
A TV season withour Angie, Sasha, Bruce andLorraine, plus the Frankie actor will be a bit emoty. The ladies are super hot and the men greart actors and characters, Whule we can watch all previous seasons on DVD, I’ll eventually reach saturation on these episodes even with my damaged memory capacity.
I’m really disappointed in TNT. Cancelling Rizzoli & Iles has left little worth watching on TNT. Major Crimes is just ok. Not the same as The Closer. I’m pretty much through with cable channels. The best programs are now back in non cable networks. Time to cancel cable and if networks keep canceling my favorite programs I’ll go back to reading.
