The second season of The Exorcist wraps tonight, December 15th, at 9 p.m. ET/PT. Are you a fan? Do you think FOX should renew the series for a third season?
Based on the 1973 feature film and William Peter Blatty’s 1971 novel, the horror drama follows Father Tomas Ortega (Alfonso Herrera) and former priest Marcus Keane (Ben Daniels) as they uncover unusual cases of evil. The cast also includes Kurt Egyiawan, Zuleikha Robinson, John Cho, Brianna Hildebrand, and Li Jun Li. Christopher Cousins, and Cyrus Arnold.
Based on the ratings, a third season of The Exorcist would be surprising. The series landed a surprise second season renewal last May because the first season’s ratings had been dismal. Season two has done much worse. So far, season two is averaging a 0.42 rating in the 18-49 demo and only 1.33 million viewers, making it one of FOX’s lowest-rated TV shows for the 2017-2018 season.
But ratings don’t always determine a show’s future. Like last year, FOX could give The Exorcist another chance.
What do you think? Would you watch a third season or, should this FOX series be cancelled and put to rest?
OMG! RENEW!! This is an extraordinary series…well scripted and cast. It’s a delight to watch it every week. While I personally don’t think it’s been given a fair shake in the lineup with the “death days” that it’s been scheduled thus far, I think it’s managed to gather a remarkable following of dedicated fans, as well. I’d keep it for sure!
RENEW!! We need this great show every week! Please!
Please renew for Season 3!
Give the show a fair chance by moving it out of the death zone time slot it has been in for two seasons. The Exorcist is one of the best shows on television! #RenewTheExorcist #Season3TheExorcistFox
Renew! These things take time and ratings would be higher is Fox would take this show out of this F4iday night graveyard slot after Hell’s Kitchen. If it were to be back to back with another show (such as The Passage) I think the ratings would significantly jump.
And that’s the whole problem the dreaded Friday night time slot!
Please please please renew The Exorcist.. Please. Tomas needs Marcus.
I agree!
Great series. Different from other shows on TV. Keeps me glued to the edge of my seat eagerly waiting for each new episode. Definitely want more.
Father Tomas and Marcus are the best main characters, each season is perfect bringing in a new spirit, new location. ~Love this series~
Renew this brilliant show!
The Exorcist is absolutely brilliant! I think there would be a huge increase in ratings with a little more promotion. The show is beautiful, terrifying, diverse, moving and heartbreaking. The writing, acting and cinematography are nothing short of brilliant.
Yes,will defintiley watch S3. The Plot for it seems interesting . And its time to get to know more about Tomas Ortega.Ben Daniels And Alfons Herrera is very talented actors and the chemestry with each othe as Marcus and Tomas is one the main reason why I love the tv serie.
Definitely! Its much better than the 1st season. Fox wasted this brilliant season. I kinda hope it gets picked up by Netflix or FX. They have a real winner here, great acting, storytelling, director and cinema. The only reason its not a huge hit is fox lack of advertising and crappy time slot.
Exactly
The Exorcist is a beautiful, well-acted show that lives up to the book and the movie. I want to see the full seven-season arc, because it’s going to be epic. This scary but soulful show is my favorite.
Absoluteky. The highlught oof my week is watching The Exorcist. Makeup amazing. I dont scare easily but The Exorcist really had me sitting at the end of my seat literally.
Loved original movie. This show is superior to the movie.
More. Keep the costs down with different casts each season like they did from season 1-2, and 10 episodes work well.
Yes I would watch more Seasons of “The Exorcist”. I like the actors in the show and would like to see where the show goes.
