Back when it debuted, it looked like FOX might have a hit with Sleepy Hollow. It had a strong debut but the ratings got worse and worse over the course of its first two seasons. In the spring, network execs renewed it for a third season, despite the fact that the ratings were down about 40% year-to-year. They then scheduled it on Thursday nights, a notoriously competitive evening for television. Could the numbers possibly rise this season or will they drop lower? Does FOX care anymore? (Do viewers?) Cancelled or renewed for a fourth season? Stay tuned.
A supernatural police drama, Sleepy Hollow follows Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison), a patriot who was killed 230 years ago. He finds himself resurrected in modern-day and partners with a female police lieutenant (Nicole Beharie). The cast also includes Lyndie Greenwood, Shannyn Sossamon, Nikki Reed, Lance Gross, and Zach Appelman.
The ratings are typically the best sign 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.
4/8 update: After the third season finale shocker, do you think this show should be renewed for a fourth season?
4/9 update: You can see the latest night’s ratings in context.

For comparisons: The second season of Sleepy Hollow averaged a 1.55 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 4.57 million total viewers.
Note: These are the final national numbers (unless noted with an “*”). These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple of days later.
What do you think? Do you still like the Sleepy Hollow TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a fourth season?
Absolutely love Sleepy Hollow . Please bring it back to all the faithful fans .
Sleepy Hollow is one of the best shows ever. No, I definitely do NOT want this show to end already. I know that it will one day, but not yet. It still has a long way to play out. I know that I am not alone in saying this. Many of my friends feel the same way!
great show
love this show always look forward to Friday night.
Sleepy Hollow was a show I looked forward to., year after year, so disappointed that Abbie was killed off. The problem with series is they get moved to busy night, you don’t know which one of your shows to watch , but more importantly, you don’t know where your show disappeared to since no notice as to where moved. This show was creative, inventive, romantic twists you want to see Krane and Abby together before it ever ends and an opportunity for father daughter getting to know each other with an explanation as to why Sleepy Hollow. To put Joe… Read more »
I love this show never miss it hope it does come back .
Sleepy Hollow without both characters, Abbie and Crane, isn’t Sleepy Hollow. If the show returns for season 4 (good luck with that), they should rename it as Quantum Hollow or Sleepy Dr. Who.
While we weren’t happy that they killed off Abbie, this is tv….. remember Dallas where one whole season was a ‘dream’? My husband & I truly hope that Sleepy Hollow will indeed be renewed. It’s one of the few shows that we watch anymore.
Hello from Slovenia. I love this show so muchhhhhhh and i didn’t miss even one episode since season 1 started. I think In season 4 have so many
opportunities to do this show even 3 times better as before cuz they have so many open ways and please DON’T cancel this show cuz left all us one great seal and memories. I hope you will go on with show. GL =)
I agree with Lucy F. Even though Abbie has died, in a fantasy world, death isn’t always forever. Plus I like the possibilities opening up for Crane. Please renew! There are a lot of silent fans out there.
This is one of a few favorite shows I look forward to each week. I loved the chemistry between Crane and Abbey. I hope it gets picked up for another season so I can watch where the story goes next now that Crane must go on without Abbey. However, if it does get canceled I hope Netflix picks it up and continues the story. PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL!
Bring it back!!!!!
Fox is just cancelling everything, maybe it is time to stop watching Fox….we really liked Crane and Abby oh and American Idol what will they cancel tomorrow?
Really enjoyed the season finale, love to see were they take the next season…..so sick of all those reality shows, nice to watch a smart show with intriguing storyline each week.
Please renew. The show is exciting and unusual. My husband and I love watchig it. If we missed it, then we’d pull it up on Hulu.
