CBS had been filling the Mondays at 9pm timeslot with sitcoms for years and years. Now, they’re trying a new drama — Scorpion. Will this change be a ratings success? Will the show be renewed for a second season? Will it be cancelled? Stay tuned.
Based on real-life events, Scorpion revolves around computer expert Walter O’Brien (Elyes Gabel) and his team of brilliant misfits. They’re this country’s last line of defense against complex, high-tech threats. The series also stars Katharine McPhee, Robert Patrick, Eddie Kaye Thomas, Jadyn Wong, and Ari Stidham.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
1/12 update: Scorpion and two other shows have been renewed for a second season by CBS.
Final season averages: 2.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 10.96 million total viewers.

Due to a Nielsen glitch, some of the early ratings of the 2014-15 season were revised a few weeks later.
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the Scorpion TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Please keep this show… I love and so does my 6th grade class…We have wondered if CBC is “shooting itself in the foot” by its scheduling of the show. Sometimes the show is not on, then a new episode and then a rerun…What’s up?
I enjoy Scorpion…but…WOW! The 2-23 episode had perhaps the most idiotic script in TV history. Too many lame items to cover. The most inane part, however, had to be the part where the mercs were “too afraid” to attempt a rescue…and left it to our intrepid heroes. Whoever wrote this dreck should be forced into rehab. The person who approved it should be fired.
The only non-cable tv show i watch. Great show. Happy to see it got renewed for a second season.
Love this series–shows intelligent people come in all forms. Keep this show on.
I really enjoy the quirkiness of the characters. Paige cuts to the chase when handling a team that has no social editor. The characters serve as examples of “geeks” who have a uniqueness which should be valued rather than discounted. I think people who have hidden their strengths because of a fear of rejection may be able to “let their light shine”. I say “Bravo”. Please keep this series.
PLEASE KEEP THIS SHOW!! We love it!! Love the characters, the interactions, the plot lines. It’s great to see intelligent people getting the spotlight!!
Please please please don’t cancel the tv show! I love this show it’s so unique & there’s no show out there like it. I’d be very disappointed if this show got canceled. It’s so hard to find a good tv show because most of the junk on TV is reality tv show about house wives & whatever else. Just don’t cancel this show.
I absolutely love Scorpion!! I find it to be a very addicting show! I just started watching it when the sand dune collapsed on the kid episode and haven’t stopped! I was impressed by how well it caught my attention and the way it always has me laughing or sittingon the edge of my seat! The series should definitely continue it would be such a disappointment to a lot of people I know if it cancels!!
Great show! Finally, there is something worth watching on TV. Eliminate the reality shows — so boring! Even though there are hundreds of programs available to us, there are very few that we watch. Scorpion is one of them.
The cast and story line of Scorpion are really good. The series is entertaining and also lets the audience know that there are actually some young people out there who have good minds and are patriotic.
My family and I really enjoy the series. We certainly would hate to see it cancelled.
I sure hope you keep this show on. I found out about it through a friend and now i tell every one to watch. its about time they show that young people are doing good we have a lot of young people that are good but when you see them on tv they show them in gangs or on drugs so keep this show on.
I started watching Scorpion in January 2015 and every since then…I am hooked. I watch it on Mondays and then watch re-runs On Demand. I agree that there are far too many reality tv shows and not enough great shows like this. This show has a wonderful cast and interesting story plots. Please continue this show and shows like it ( NCIS Los Angeles, NCIS and NCIS New Orleans). I am such a CBS fan now because of shows like this.
Wife and I, both 70-ish or more, love the show. Happy to see some love interests evolve for main characters. Yeah, lose the baseball deadbeat dad… other than a catalyst to push the two main characters closer faster, I think his value-add is over. Love the variety of challenges and gizmos that are invented to solve problems and deliver miracles on demand… Basically, I’ve noticed that our favorite shows are the ones that have a range of kooky characters, each with their strengths and flaws, but who all work and relate with each other as Family… from Shield to all… Read more »
Please keep this show on!! Its still evolving & so curious to see where it goes. It may not have a large following, but I think it will in time. It just hasn’t been given enough publicity or exposure. Stars have not been on the TV night show circuit… Need to be on the daytime talk shows as well to increase the awareness of this creatively innovative show.
I have a habbit of taping shows before watching them. I had 15 taped before I started to finally watch it. I really enjoy this show. Please do not cancel it. By the way I am 71, in case you wanted the age group.
I love this show, do not cancel it. I am disappointed with all the reruns and only 3 new episodes in 2015. It is a great way to end a hum-drum Monday. It makes me laugh. It has a wonderful cast and the stories are great. PLEASE make MORE shows….It is so much better that all those stupid reality shows. I am not A fan of them and it seems that is all that is on these days. The show Scorpion is very refreshing.
