NBC has had poor luck with sitcoms lately. All of their new ones were cancelled. Will Save Me be added to the pile or will it be renewed for a second season instead? We’ll have to wait and see.
The TV series stars Anne Heche as a housewife who believes she has a direct line to God after nearly choking to death. Others in the cast include Michael Landes, Alexandra Breckenridge, Heather Burns, Madison Davenport, and Lamman Rucker. There are 13 episodes.
Below are the TV show’s ratings for the 2012-13 season, the best way to tell if Save Me will be cancelled or renewed for a second season. The show typically airs on Thursday nights.

It was a lousy start for the new sitcom. It seems that NBC made the right decision when they held it for a post-sweeps premiere.
Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you like the Save Me TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
This is a smart, funny show with talented actors and a fresh, interesting plot. I really hope some intelligent programmer realizes what a gem they have in this show, which offers a unique viewing choice other than another lame reality show or cop story. Wouldn’t advertisers even appreciate spending part of their ad budget on a show that could potentially give them access to a different demographic?
I agree with those above me: Clever, uplifting without being heavyhanded, funny and original show. It would be a shame not to give it more of a chance to get a foothold. The network hasn’t given this show a real opportunity, showing seven episodes over just a few weeks; I hope they give it a real shot with a full season in the fall.
Love love love it!!! Bring it back!!! PLEASE!!!
VERY FUNNY!!!
Please don’t cancel! Finally a funny show!! I think it sends a great message in a non religious way.
I thought it was great. I get sick that they keep making these shows, get us hooked, then cancel them before giving them a chance.
I think this is one of the best new shows that has come along in ages. I am 57 and my granddaughter is 13. We have sat together enjoying and laughing at each episode. The show has also sparked some great conversatioons about whats right and wrong. I would hate to see it canceled.
I love this show! I look forward to it each week. Why do the networks cancel the good shows and keep the losers???? This one is funny, uplifting, refreshing and zany. There’s nothing objectionable about it! And Anne Heche is a delight!
I LOVE THIS SHOW!!! It is so original and when I tuned in it nearly took my breath away! Her story is my story! I only caught 7 of the episodes and so I will look for the other 6 missed. PLEASE give this show a chance! Everyone I have told to check it out is hooked! It is genius the way they keep the message at the forefront while having us laughing the whole time! The cast is perfect and Heche is now one of my favorites! Keep it!
Finally a good wholesome show the premise is people who are broken in some way find inspiration to start getting better. Which means of course the show will be canceled as most people only seem to care about bad things happening to other people I hope it makes it though as each episode gets better
I loved the show. Funny, refreshing. I wish it would be renewed!
I really like and enjoy this show, I hope it doesn’t get cancelled.
Please don’t cancel this show. It is funny and uplifting and so needed today. I look forward to each episode and hope there will be many more!
I love this show! It is so good to finally have a show to watch with a positive message. Please keep this show!
Very funny and original. I hope it does not get canceled.
Finally, a decent show the whole family can watch! Please, please, do not cancel this show! I have been telling all my friends to watch it.
