The AMC series has not been performing well in the ratings but, according to a listing in the Backstage industry casting paper, Rubicon has been renewed for year two. Here’s their info:
Rubicon (Drama, AMC) A think-tank analyst comes to the realization that his colleagues are not who he thought they were and may be a part of a covert organization secretly manipulating world politics and affairs. James Badge Dale stars. Casting: Avy Kaufman Casting, 180 Varick St., 16th Fl., New York, NY 10014. Premiered Aug. 1. Renewed.
Last Sunday’s episode attracted just a 0.2 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 997,000 total viewers. That pales when compared to AMC’s Mad Men which scored a 0.6 demo rating and 2.1 million viewers.
The Backstage listing seems like it’s most likely a typo or error because, for now, they seem to be the only one saying there will be another year.
The season finale of Rubicon, “You Can Never Win,” is set to air next Sunday on AMC.
What do you think? Would you like to see Rubicon return for another year or should it be cancelled?

Love this show. Best spy thriller yet with its twists. Will be really upset if does not come back for more seasons. Very engaging drama.
If only to find out what’s going on …. No, seriously, it’s great and addictive, tho’ weird in many ways.
this show has to be renewed.
Please, please continue this series. My husband and I love it. It is so intriguing. It is one of the best shows on TV.
This is an awesome show. One of those that gets into your head and makes you put episodes on the DVR so that you can immediately jump to the next one when one ends.
Please renew Rubicon for Season II
I really enjoyed this show and I’d hate to see it stop! It was pure genius!
You absolutely have to renew this show. Do more advertising..something that will attract viewers. Rubicon, Breaking Bad, Mad Med are some of the best shows on TV. People are just not use to watching original shows on AMC. You do this series a diservice but not advertising it and also not advertising AMC for original shows.
I have been addicted since the first episode….my heart starts beating so fast when I am about top see a new episode……can hardly wait for each one….must not be cancelled….pleeeeeeze!!!!
Yes, this show must come back. I would hope very much to see this show next season. Will it??
Until Rubicon was truncated last week I was telling people it was far and away the best spy flick raising the genre to a new high level for this literature. I am furious that it was chopped off without being completed. I had followed it closely enough to see that it would take several more installments to resolve some alternative climaxes and some of the minor excellences clearly point out the barbaric amputation of the ending. For instance through all but the last installment the bright, dedicated female intelligent analysts were forbidden one simple costume change. They all wore simple… Read more »
THIS HAS BEEN AN AMAZING SERIES. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHY IT IS NOT WATCHED MORE. AN INTELLIGENT SERIES, WE COULD NOT WAIT FOR EACH EPISODE. HOPE IT RETURNS.
A rare gem – one of the best on TV – a clever, full of detailed characters and slowly developing drama. A well produced show that doesn’t think you’re just a passive ad demographic. I don’t get AMC in Montreal so I bought it on iTunes – every episode was available 2 days after airing in the US. I really hope it goes on, for another 2, 3, 4… seasons.
This is an amazing, smart show with a twist that we haven’t seen on tv for a very long time! Strange that the ratings are not very good… Cannot be canceled!
This is a fantastic show and definitely deserves to be renewed. One of the best shows on TV in a long time.
When this is renewed and not bucking Sunday Night Football, I am sure it will take off like a rocket. Best show I’ve ever seen. Riveting, leaves you always wanting more. Please bring it back.
