What’s This TV Show About?
A satirical dark comedy-drama series airing on the Showtime cable channel, The Curse TV show stars Emma Stone and series creators Nathan Fielder, and Benny Safdie. Guest stars include Barkhad Abdi, Corbin Bernsen, and Constance Shulman. In the story, newlyweds Whitney and Asher Siegel (Stone and Fielder) are struggling to bring their vision for eco-conscious housing to the small community of Española, New Mexico. Their efforts are complicated when an eccentrically flawed reality TV producer, Dougie (Safdie), sees opportunity in their story. As the series unfolds, the couples find themselves caught in a mysterious web of ethical and moral gray zones – all while trying to keep their relationship afloat.
Season One Ratings
The first season of The Curse averaged a 0.0003 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 33,000 viewers 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. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled. Find out how The Curse stacks up against other Showtime TV shows.
As of December 3, 2024, The Curse has not been cancelled or renewed for a second season. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will Showtime cancel or renew The Curse for season two? Earlier this year, Showtime changed its programming strategy to focus on franchises. It’s hard to know if this series will be a casualty of that decision. What we do know is that the Sunday night ratings are very low. Unless the streaming numbers are significant, I think this show will be cancelled for sure. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.
