NBC has had great ratings success with airing The Blacklist after The Voice, their biggest series. Will State of Affairs be a hit as well? Cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
State of Affairs follows a top CIA analyst (Katherine Heigl) who assembles the President of the United States’ Daily Briefing (PDB), weighing the vital security issues that face the nation. She has a close personal relationship with the commander-in-chief (Alfre Woodard) as she was once engaged to the president’s now-deceased son. The rest of the cast of this dramatic thriller includes Adam Kaufman, Sheila Vand, Cliff Chamberlain, Tommy Savas, and David Harbour.
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.

What do you think? Do you like the State of Affairs TV show? Would you like to see it cancelled or renewed for a second season?
PLease leave this on the air. My new favourite show.
love it so
Love the show!!! Bring it back and Nick!
Oop! Sorry for the misspelling Katherine!! You still rock!
This show makes Madam Secretary, which I initially liked, seem like night time soap opera. The grit of the show and the cast makes it something to look forward to every week and it is “right on” regarding the real threats this country now faces even though our President can’t seem to get his head around this eminent danger! Please renew and may the writers and cast continue to portray the reality of the situation world wide regarding terrorism without regard to political correctness. You rock Kathryn!!
Please bring this show back! I look forward to season two
