Last year, The Bridge had a strong start in the ratings but the numbers fell quite a bit over the course of the first season. Will the ratings improve in season two or will they get worse? Will it be renewed for season three or will this FX show be cancelled instead?
The Bridge revolves around the Mexican and American police detectives and their efforts to protect those along the Texas–Chihuahua border. The cast of this crime drama includes Demián Bichir, Diane Kruger, Matthew Lillard, Emily Rios, Ted Levine, and Thomas M. Wright.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.
10/21 update: FX has cancelled The Bridge after two seasons.
Final season averages: 0.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.11 million total viewers.

Cable ratings are typically released within a day or so of the show’s airing, except for in the case of weekends and holidays. They are sometimes harder to locate so there may be occasional delays or gaps.
What do you think? Do you like The Bridge TV show? Do you think that it should be renewed for a third season?
BRING BACK THE BRIDGE, GIVE US SEASON 3! My group of friends are not in your so called 18-49 demographics poll. Lots of over 50’s watch TV too, why don’t you try targeting your advertising to them and include them in your ratings? I think you’ll find The Bridge is your most popular show if you do so. Nielsen belongs in the 70’s & 80’s, ratings are Older People, not just young, ratings are also DVR, Downloads, & Streaming. Most people don’t watch Live TV these days. Get into the 21st Century and count your viewers properly and like I… Read more »
We definitely want and anxiouly await a third season of The Bridge. My coworkers and friends alike can’t stop talking about the show. Do not disappoint us, please!
Keep up the good, brave television, FX. Do not cancel this great show!
I love this show. It is great! Please give us a season 3!$
absolutely, with out a doubt, you must renew this magnificent show!!! I have watched this since day one! FX has brought us these exceptional shows such as The Tyrant and The Bridge! Please you must renew both of these terrific shows
Love The bridge! My only complaint is the time slot it has been given. It doesn’t come on until 10:00 pm where I live so I rarely watch it live. Thank goodness for the DVR! I think that FX should definitely renew but change the time slot to give it a better chance of survival. They should also make the first two seasons available on Netfix instead of just Hulu to build up the fan base. I hope they recognize that they truly do have a winner here compared to most of the other garbage on television these days.
We definitely need a third season best show on TV
The Bridge is one of the highlights of our week and I watch each episode more than once. The writing is excellent, the acting is fabulous and the story is important. We are looking forward to Season Three of The Bridge.
Please renew!! I love this very excellent drama.
Best show on TV is FX The Bridge! Don’t let go of this amazing show FX, it would be a big mistake! Many new viewers Binge watched Season one to get caught up (they did that with Breaking Bad seasons & you see how that show turned out with All the well deserved Awards!) PLEASE renew! Join my group on face book of

THANK YOU to FX, the brilliant writers, producers, crew & outstanding cast!!
Yes.. Need a third. They need to re-show both series 1&2 in the off season. Also more promotion. Who ever is marketing this show needs to step it up.
Please renew this awesome show for a season 3 there’s still so much more you can take this show to! Doesn’t have to end in 2 weeks! I’ve been a devoted bridge fan since July of 2013 when the very first episode of season 1 started I even watch each week’s episode twice in both season 1 & season 2! Arriba for the bridge! Let’s keep the bridge alive!
Love the show….hope it continues!
Remember what happened with the Nielsen ratings for the original Star Trek series? Biggest mistake in television history. Perhaps we will see another one like it. I hope not.
This is a great series. Intelligent, fascinating plot lines, and it shows Asperger’s in a positive way, which is great for those of us on the spectrum.
YES this is a great show and it should DEFINITELY be renewed for Season 3!! People will start to figure out what a good show it is and binge watch to catch up and then be very glad they caught on!
