FOX’s Wednesday night drama Rosewood had a very positive debut in the ratings when it debuted back in September. But, how is the TV series doing now? Cancel or keep it for season two?
Rosewood revolves around Dr. Beaumont Rosewood Jr. (Morris Chestnut), a calm, collected and incredibly charismatic, pathologist. He’s recruited by Miami’s homicide department and partnered with tough Detective Annalise Villa (Jaina Lee Ortiz). She’s annoyed by his constant optimism — until she discovers the reason. The rest of the cast includes Gabrielle Dennis, Anna Konkle, Domenick Lombardozzi, Maggie Elizabeth Jones, and Lorraine Toussaint.
Thanks in part to being paired with the very successful Empire TV show, the Rosewood series debuted to a 2.44 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 7.54 million viewers. It was a very positive start, especially when you look at the ratings for most of the other shows on the FOX network.
Unfortunately, the numbers dropped more than 17% in week two and the ratings fell again in weeks three and four. The fourth episode of Rosewood drew a 1.42 in the demo with 5.03 million. Episode five recovered a bit and generated a 1.56 in the demo with 5.27 million viewers.
FOX gave the new series a full season order in mid-October, bringing the season tally to 22 installments. If you look at the downward trend of the ratings alone, that move seemed a bit surprising but, again, much of the network’s other programming is struggling right now. None of FOX’s other new shows have caught on and are doing much worse in the ratings.
A second season renewal will likely depend on how well this series performs for the rest of the season — and what FOX’s new crop of pilots look like in the spring.
For now, it seems clear that FOX is committed to sticking with Rosewood through the rest of this season.
But, what do you think? Will you stick with the Rosewood series? Do you really like this show or is it just “good enough” for now? Cancel or keep it?
Love it don’t cancel please
Please oh please don’t cancel I loveeeeeeee this show the chemistry between the characters I love it everything about show have me wanting more every time I get into a show it get canceled please don’t let this one
cancel show .. tired of him.. he is too cocky
You shouldn’t watch it then
Cocky or confident? Cocky or driven?
When you are -THAT- good at what you do, you can walk and talk with ‘swag’. Athletes & musicians do act like this everyday, but it’s acceptable.(?)
Here is an intelligent, professional, medical examiner who has a passion – a calling to assure justice is served and respect is given to the deceased.
If there were a mystery around the death of someone close to me, I’d pray for a medical examiner like Rosey to take the case!
I love, love this show! It is fast moving, the whole cast is good. They all work well together and most of all, Morris Chestnut is great. He has this quiet, endearing quality to him that makes him shine and his chemistry with his co-star is smoldering. Please keep this show.
Love this show please dont cancel it
YES, CANCEL IT!
or you just not watch it.
What’s the reason? Your critique may be the ‘info’ needed to improve the show, from your point of view.
Easy to say cancel….why?
Please please keep Rosit is an excellent show..
Please don’t cancel Rosewood. It is the best of your new shows this session and I love the show !!! I look forward to watching it every week. Thank you
Don’t cancel Rosewood it’s a great show
don’t be foolish and. take another show
renew the show and don’t be foolish
and let the show go.
I love the show , and I hope its kept for many seasons the only criticism I have is I don’t take to Annalise Villa to well just yet , only because this 1 scene she did with a perp was a little offensive but other than that its a great show and I hope lasts longer.
Please get an adviser for your show Rosewood. Your anti-gun issues make the show an insult to watch. Someone with knowledge of guns would be changing your show content, when it comes to anything mentioning guns. Your ignorance is showing!
You also need an adviser on your forensics as well…even I can tell that!
Might want to tell that to FOX
Can you cite more specific examples from the show. I’m not well-versed w/ (anti) or gun control. What’s offensive?
What forensic errors were made? Or it is that some discoveries or conclusions seem unrealistic?
Thanks for explaining to me
Best show in years. Hope it stays around.
It’s a darling show! Don’t cancel!!!
Renew it!
Don’t cancel rosewood it’s a great show don’t be foolish and take another one out there that is a number one show please renew it for another season everybody I know that’s watching it thanks its great.
I love this show
