Last year, of the 26 scripted CBS TV series we tracked during the regular season, the SEAL Team TV show ranked eighth in the demo and 12th in terms of total audience size. If that was just beginner’s luck, the ratings will drop off in the second season. But if this show has the soul of a warrior, it could even increase its audience this time around. Will SEAL Team be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
A CBS military drama, SEAL Team stars David Boreanaz, Max Thieriot, Neil Brown Jr., AJ Buckley, Toni Trucks, Jessica Paré, and Judd Lormand. The action-adventure series centers on an exclusive Navy SEAL unit as they train for, plan, and risk their very lives to carry out perilous missions for the sake and honor of the U.S.A. Fierce and focused Jason Hayes (Boreanaz) leads the Tier One team. Despite the hardship it causes them and their families, this SEAL team is ready, willing, and able to embark upon secret missions at the drop of a hat. Their love of country and deep resolve is unmatched.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly in the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

What do you think? Do you like the SEAL Team TV series? Should it be cancelled or renewed for third season on CBS?
*5/9/19 update: CBS has renewed SEAL Team for a third season.
Seal Team is a great show and I watch it faithfully. Replacing it with ridiculous shows like Big Brother would be a huge error in judgment by CBS. SEASON 3 of Seal Team is what I’m hoping for.
I feel the same way
Best show on network TV I have seen in years. Great actors and characters. Look forward to it every week which I have not done with any TV show in a very long time. I hope very much it gets a third season> We have to find out of Sonny is OK. 🙂
My wife and I LOVE this show!! They can cancel their drivel like Celebrity Big Brother. We must have a Season 3! (And 4, 5, 6… , I hope). This is our favorite current series.
SO well said!! Reality TV is garbage. SEAL Team is the real deal!
Please Renew Seal Team for a 3rd season! Also it would help it’s ratings if it’s regular time slots weren’t being interrupted by other shows! I doubt I’m the only one who hates having to go for weeks at a time with other stuff like Celebrity Big Brother taking over the time slots for the regularly scheduled shows that get bumped for weeks at a time for multiple episodes a week of these other shows! I understand the occasional interruption for things like award shows, Super Bowl, or other such events…but when a pretty popular newer show like Seal Team… Read more »
Amen I totally agree, but I’m cancelling my subscription if they don’t stop pulling this crap it’s the viewers who pay their salaries.
Bring back seal team. Great show. Celebrity big brother is terrible.
We REALLY enjoy Seal Team and hope for its Return for a FULL season 3.
One of the best military shows in years and I look forward to it every episode. It’s just starting to evolve past the missions. As much as I like to see a mission concluded each episode, drawing than out over 2 or 3 episodes just gives the show and mission time to develop to make it feel more real since we all know things are not wrapped up quickly in the real world. Please do not cancel this show!
best show in a long time, do not cancel. tired of reality and not so talented talent shows.
Seal Team is as close to real Military than any previous Military series I have ever watched. You have a HIT series in Seal Team. I look forward to Season 3, as I am sure your current and future viewers of the program, Seal Team.
Don’t cancel another great series! We all get fed up with reality crap that me personally hate and wouldn’t give the time of day to watch. The cast are great, plot is good, let’s keep it going!!! PLEASE
I believe if they can’t respect our wishes we should boycott them.
Please do not cancel this show its a great show and deserves a season 3
This is a great show and I hope it will be renewed for the a third season. It is too good of a show to be cancelled.
Please continue Seal Team
Please keep this great show going

I just love seal team it’s a great show please don’t cancel the actors are great I will be upset if it gets cancelled
