Last season, the Scorpion TV show saw a significant tumble in the ratings but CBS renewed the series anyway. Now, the network is moving the show to a later timeslot (when fewer people are watching television). Could Scorpion be cancelled or, is it sure to be renewed for a third season so there will be enough episodes for syndication? 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 quirky masterminds have found the perfect job: a place where they can apply their exceptional brainpower to solve the nation’s crises, while also helping each other learn how to fit in. The series also stars Robert Patrick, Katharine McPhee, Jadyn Wong, Ari Stidham, Eddie Kaye Thomas, and Riley B. Smith.
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.
3/23 update: CBS has renewed Scorpion for a fourth season for 2017-18. Details here.
5/16 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page or view it here.
For comparisons: The second season of Scorpion averaged a 1.77 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 9.64 million total viewers (live + same day ratings).
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 still like Scorpion TV series? Do you think there should be a season four?
Love this show.. make more
I really like to see season 4. I will be very upset if i don’t see them in action and full of surprises. I really like Elyes Gabel and Kath mcphee together. They are incredible together. Hopes up!!!

Love this show, hope they will keep it going.
Yes should be a season 4 , 5 , 6 , keep it on its a great show the cast is great
CONTINUE SCORPION!!! season 4!!
Yes continue filming Scorpion. I love all the funny & crazy ideas the team uses to get the problem solved, I’ve never laughed so hard at some of the neat ideas Scorpion comes up with.
I have enjoyed the crazy antics of “The Team”. Every week has been enjoyable…except for the last week. I feel that having Paige appear with the shirt open to the pint of seeing part of her breasts was on poor taste. Totally unnecessary. I mean seriously!! It’s all about the chase and the mystery dear writers!!
Really enjoy watching this show with my family. I hope it continues to be shown as reruns until the new season starts. Love the problem solving science and personality differences that it interesting and entertaining.
