Before the show even began airing, Second Chance went through two name changes (previously The Frankenstein Code and Lookinglass) and had its episode order reduced. Will viewers even give it a first chance and watch? Cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
On Second Chance, a sheriff named Jimmy Pritchard left his office in disgrace. As a younger man, Jimmy often ignored his family in favor of work and carousing. Unhappy and unwell at 75 years old, he’s killed but gets a second chance when his body is regenerated by some experimental technology. Can Jimmy get things right the second time around? The cast includes Rob Kazinsky, Tim DeKay, Dilshad Vadsaria, Adhir Kalyan, Ciara Bravo, and Vanessa Lengies.
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.
1/23 update: Cancelled already? FOX is moving this low-rated series to Friday night.
3/26 update: You can see the latest night’s ratings in context.

Note: 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 Second Chance TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Yet another fantastic show that Fox didn’t adequately promote, then messed around with the schedule, and pretty much killed it. Meanwhile the godawfully cheesy “Lucifer” will probably keep going for years.
I’m late getting started watching this show but I’m finally caught up on Hulu. I am totally hooked and desperately hoping it will be renewed!!!
PLEASE RENEW THIS SHOW!!! Great premise… we’ll cast and extremely well written. Given a little bit of time word of mouth will travel and ratings will inevitably catch up!!!
Please don’t cancel this show.. It’s well written..love the actors.. It’s one of the rare shows my husband and I watch together…networks look at live ratings..they need to look at the people that watch on demand, Hulu, that dvr it..not many of us have the opportunity to watch tv when it airs..networks need to get a total census of their audience before they cancell a show.. Many times they have a higher audience then they think.
This is a great show! Please don’t cancel it. It’s the only show I look forward to all week!
Great show! Please do not cancel
Great show. Don’t cancel. If you do I see a future in Netflix. Don’t make the mistake of canceling
I recently found this show on my On Demand channel and loved it. I rewatched the first couple episodes with my husband, knowing he would enjoy it. He loved it and anytime we have couch time, it is our go to show. We just finished episode 9 and rushed to find out if there was a second season in the making. Sadly not. I never really saw this show promoted, which really is a shame. I would have been watching or recording it had I known it’s time slot and air date. However, if I had known this was a… Read more »
really love this show please give it another season
This is my FAVORITE TV Show. PLEASE don’t cancel this show. It is well-acted and the script is spell-binding. I will be SO upset with FOX if this is cancelled!!!!!!!
Please don’t cancel. This show deals with interesting crime cases, differences between older manners, police ethics, etc. as seen on a 75-yr. old man’s thoughts and actions if given a chance to do things differently in a much changed younger man’s world. The story quickly becomes one that I look forward to each week. So what if it’s on Friday night. Don’t most viewers have a way to record shows to watch at their convenience anyway?

Fox does have a reputation for cancelling shows if they don’t have 300 million viewers and world domination within 2 episodes. I have read a lot of comments of people saying they won’t watch a Fox show until they know it’s been renewed. Fox’s reputation is what’s hurting their viewing figures, not poor shows. They need to show viewers they can emotionally invest in a show instead of everything getting Fireflyed. I have always watched new shows to prevent them getting cancelled but, after Almost Human, and this, I’ll be done with Fox.
EXACTLY, thank you!!
I agree. It’s a great show but no matter what we the viewers say, it will be cancelled b/c they don’t have 30 cazillion viewers smh. Just caught up on demand
One of my favorite shows! Fox you have a reputation for cancelling too fast. Please give this a second chance!!!
I agree with a lot of people definitely a very good show. I enjoy watching usually I get bored after an episode but it’s intriguing and I love the characters. Come on keep it for season 2,
I love this show!!! It is unlike any show I’ve watched & the chemistry between cast members is excellent! Please don’t cancel it!!!!!
