Airing on USA Network, Satisfaction has certainly attracted a lot of distinct opinions. Some love the series and want a second season while others liken it to pornography and feel it should be cancelled as soon as possible. Most importantly to USA though is, how’s it been doing in the ratings?
On Satisfaction, a successful married man (Matt Passmore) has his world turned upside down when he discovers that his wife (Stephanie Szostak) of 18 years has hired a professional lover (Blair Redford). Through a series of events, he ends up deciding to try the escort business for himself. Others in the cast include Michelle DeShon and Katherine LaNasa.
The show debuted on July 17th to 1.7 million viewers and a 0.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic. Compared to other shows on USA, this was not a great start.
The ratings dropped in later weeks but have also rebounded a bit as well. To date, the season is averaging 1.4 million viewers with a 0.4 demo rating.
Satisfaction is one of the lowest-rated shows on USA right now — and the cable channel is having a lot of problems in the ratings department. All of their older shows are way down year-to-year.
While that fact might improve Satisfaction’s chance of survival, I suspect the execs will cancel the series and put their time and energy into launching another new show.
But, what do you think? Do you like Satisfaction on USA? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
10/2 update: USA has renewed Satisfaction for a second season.
Love it. Keep it!
Are you Crazy.!! RENEW.!!
Yes, renew!!!!!
It’s a very good show. Renew it please
I really like the show and have several friends hooked on it. Beats the crap out of a lot of shows. Bring on another season…
This so so SSSOOO good! Please let us see a second season!!
I watched an episode while I was stuck in the hospital. A couple of episodes actually. I don’t think the American television audience is ready to watch a show built off of such a ridiculous premise. A married couple so bored out of their minds that they go around banging all these other drums. But they still love each other???? Seriously! Get a divorce already and move on. The kids lives are even more annoying than the adults. “Betrayal” on ABC was a bad show with similar subject matter, this one is even worse. The plots and scripting border on… Read more »
We really like Satisfaction. Hope it’s renewed.
zzzzzzz, what, huh, this show is still on?
Yes. Renew it.
They need to get The Glades and Longmire and their ratings would increase.
I like this show
Cancel this show. Put the Glades back on.
GLADES was on A&E, not USA – same actor, different channel.
Still, I rather like this – it’s not great, but it’s not too bad.
Please the show is good
Renew it
