What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the ABC television network, Supermarket Sweep is hosted by comedienne Leslie Jones and is the latest iteration of the series that debuted in 1965. A fast-paced competition, the show follows teams of two friends or relations. Clad in iconic colorful sweatshirts, the teams compete against one another in back-to-back games using their grocery shopping skills and knowledge of food store merchandise. Teams compete for the chance to play in the “Super Sweep,” a race against the clock to find five products in order to win a big cash prize.
Season Two Ratings
The second season of Supermarket Sweep averaged a 0.39 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.32 million viewers in the live+same day ratings (includes all DVR playback through 3:00 AM). Compared to season one, that’s down by 45% in the demo and down by 27% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM). While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. Though other economic factors are involved, the higher-rated shows usually get renewed and the lower-rated ones get cancelled. Find out how Supermarket Sweep stacks up against other ABC TV shows.
Supermarket Sweep has been cancelled so it won’t return for a third season. Could it be revived someday? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will ABC cancel or renew Supermarket Sweep for season three? This show was a moderate success in its first season and is based on a beloved format. The network’s revived lots of other game shows over the past several years but seems likely to start retiring some of them. Despite a sizable decline in the ratings, I think Supermarket Sweep still has a chance of being renewed, possibly for a summer run. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.

Don’t cancel this show abc. We love it we want more episodes and we mean it.
show was good and watched all the time even funny when they try and carry all the bonus pickups. fun to see people having fun and making money worth getting away from every day life
I’m sad that “Supermarket Sweep” was cancelled. I’m surprised that they did not try inviting former host David Ruprecht to make a guest appearance. Hopefully, it will return in some form at a later date.

I think supermarket Sweep should be back a 3 and 4 season also should be nominated for a Primetime Emmy and NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Game Show and TV Competition Host because it’s funny, knowledgeable, and skills to do, plus add two new supermarket workers make Rich the new security guard same rules
I also hope they renew supermarket sweep
