Superior Donuts: Season One Ratings

Actor Judd Hirsch has starred in many TV shows over the years. Some have lasted for many seasons while others have been cancelled. How will his newest show, Superior Donuts, perform for CBS? Will it be a hit in the ratings or, a flop? Will Superior Donuts be renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.

Based on the Broadway play, the Superior Donuts TV show revolves around Arthur Przybyszewski (Judd Hirsch), a no-nonsense owner of a small donut shop in Chicago. He’s a gruff guy who realizes that times are changing and help comes in the form of a go-getter named Franco Wicks (Jermaine Fowler). Franco convinces Arthur that he can bring the shop and its irritable owner into the 21st century. Others in the cast of this CBS comedy are Katey Sagal, Darien Sills-Evans, David Koechner, Anna Baryshnikov, Rell Battle, and Maz Jobrani.
