Telly’s Take
Scorpion premiered with much lower ratings than last year and they’ve dropped pretty low since then. Not a good sign. I’m thinking that it will either be cancelled or renewed for a final year. I will update this page as the picture grows more clear. Subscribe for free updates on any Scorpion cancellation or renewal news.
