Star light, star bright, you’re going to get more of Star, all right. FOX has renewed its Star TV show for a third season.

A FOX music drama, Star stars Queen Latifah, Benjamin Bratt, Jude Demorest, Ryan Destiny, Brittany O’Grady, Amiyah Scott, Quincy Brown, and Miss Lawrence. The show follows three young talents as they navigate the cut-throat music business.  

Star: A Look at the Ratings

The second season of Star is averaging a 1.34 rating in the 18-49 year old viewer demographic and 4.22 million viewers. Compared to season one, that’s even in the demo and even in viewership. Learn how Star stacks up against the other FOX TV shows.

In its sophomore showing, the series has ranked well within the network’s top ten Nielsen ratings performers, so the renewal makes sense of FOX. Why did the renewal not come sooner? The series is reportedly expensive to produce and international sales have been “challenging”. If the ratings sink lower in season three, Star could find itself on the bubble next spring.

The renewal was announced on the same day that it was revealed that co-creator Lee Daniels has signed a new overall deal with 20th Century Fox Television.
