USA has done very well with Royal Pains, a show about a private doctor who treats the wealthy. Now, the cable channel is trying a different twist with Rush. Will this series be a success and run for many seasons as well or, will it be cancelled after one short year? Stay tuned to find out.
Rush revolves around a talented and handsome physician (Tom Ellis) who had it all — but then lost it in one fateful night. Six years later, he’s a private doctor who treats less-than-squeaky-clean clientele in Los Angeles. The rest of the cast includes Harry Hamlin, Larenz Tate, Odette Annable, and Sarah Habel.
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.
10/2 update: USA has cancelled Rush after one season of 10 episodes.
Final season averages: 0.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.65 million total viewers.

What do you think? Do you like the Rush TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
BRING IT BACK!!!!!!!!
To keep the show Satisfaction and cancel Rush is a horrible choice. Satisfaction got stupid after the 2nd episode. Can’t believe the network cancelled Rush. Rush was awesome. It wasn’t a predictable,boring , typical same old doctor show. It was different and interesting to watch. A lot of things were said and done that can relate to life out there now. The dark side to the medical field that we would never think of. Out of all the shows that have all come and gone this is the first show I ever took the time to comment on. Please bring… Read more »
BRING IT BACK!!!!!
Bring Rush back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Loved rush was looking foward to its returnn
Ok…Let’s go over a few things that will hopefully put all of this into its proper perspective. First (and least important), I keep getting emails with responses to ONE comment made which notes how successful USA Network has been with Royal Pains. Why? I have written several comments, all of which have gone unsanswered! Now that I got THAT frustration out of the way! All of these replies stating what a great show RUSH is (was), yada, yada, yada are fantastic, but they don’t address the main issue. How do we get RUSH back on the air??? My limited knowledge… Read more »
Another show worth watching GONE.
I am really sad that this show was/is cancelled. The writers put it ALL together in the season finale, the step mother is prego, the stunning sarah is fighting cancer and Rush has to leave her, his best friend gets outted by a nasty ***** ho, Rush’s father agree’s to let him back into the hospital and he saves a few lives while the **** is hitting the fan… Manny has the gun used by his assistant to shoot the scumbag who beat up the woman (rush’s assistant) manny was clearly hot for: SIZZLE SIZZLE…. nighttime soap and a drug… Read more »
No they shouldn’t have cancelled Rush after 1 season. It was a great show, I never missed an episode, and told everybody to watch. Hell Seinfeld didn’t do great in the beginning and it wasn’t cancelled and look what happened. They should have let Rush have at least 1 more season. That’s a shame. It was an Original.
I can’t believe you cancelled Rush. What were you thinking? Bring Rush back!
The show the cast and the ability
To take this show to so many levels
There is no way someone else
Doesn’t pick it up, can’t remember
The last time I looked forward to
See a tv show each week!
Another great show bites the dust. The writers were just getting started and laid the foundation for the show to take off in many directions shining light on many aspects of every day life. I never commit to watching T.V and the one time I do the show is cancelled. Sucks to be me
USA Network should finally realize why they are a loser network. You had a good thing with Rush and you BLEW IT BIG TIME…. BIG TIME… the cast and the crew, well you all are outstanding…OUTSTANDING…THANK YOU ALL FOR THE BEST TELEVISION I HAVE EVER SEEN…IN 63 YEARS…IMAGINE THAT.
Very upset that Rush is being cancelled. I did not realize it was on until mid way through the first season and went back On Demand to catch up but really enjoyed the show. I don’t the network did a good job of advertising the show so people didn’t even know about it.
To all the people who jumped on me for saying this show sucked – TOLD YOU SO
Sadly, eternally boycotting another network. This time USA.

Hey Nemo…it is a pathetic shame I even feel the need to respond to your comment….
FYI..NEWSFLASH….Rush being canceled does not equal “BAD SHOW”…Rush being canceled does equal… USA Network allowing dim witted morons make the decision to cancel the show….so Nemo it was the best show ever whether you like it or not and there is NOTHING you can do about that.
Save the tongue-lashing on Nemo, Becky. He probably enjoys it!
