Last season, The Flash became The CW’s highest-rated TV show. How will it perform in season two? Will the ratings soar higher or will they fall? Could this superhero series burn out and be cancelled or is it sure to be renewed for a third season? Stay tuned.
Based on the DC Comics series, The Flash revolves around a young police scientist who’s struck by lightning in a freak accident. He awakens from a nine month coma to find that he has super speed and decides to use his abilities as a masked hero. The show stars Grant Gustin, Candice Patton, Danielle Panabaker, Carlos Valdes, Tom Cavanagh, Jesse L. Martin, and Keiynan Lonsdale.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
3/11 update: The CW has renewed this TV show and 10 others for the 2016-17 season.
5/25 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings.

For comparisons: The first season of The Flash averaged a 1.44 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 3.84 million total viewers.
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like The Flash TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a third season?
The best show on TV and second to none . Great writing , acting with plenty of suspence to keep the viewer at the edge of there seat . It would be real stupid of the network to end this series but it’s based on ratings the bottom line . So to all the fans out there keep watching if you can to keep it going .
I love this show very much.
Looks like The Flash got a little boost from last nights Supergirl crossover too.
Nope
Crime has taken national morale to an all time low. Who knows, The Flash may a

I Love Its One of Best Show Out There

They need to give us more Iris!
The Flash is the best superhero show on TV. Can’t wait to see what’s to come.
Season two of The Flash is absolutely terrible. It made one of the guest stars (Patty Spivot) a focal point for absolutely no reason. Then propped up LoT as if anybody cared.

They missed the opportunity of diving more into the West’s history but played lazy and lazily went for an embarrassing storyline that did not carry the arc for it’s main contenders, Joe, Iris and Wally. Speaking of Wally, the best they… Read more »
fox has the best shows right now Gotham, The flash Empire grandfathered, the grinder and even more….to get rid of them for replacements makes no sense.
Season two of The Flash is truely the best of the best I’ve ever seen! Although season one wasn’t bad, I would give season two a 6/5 star rating!!! To all the characters, the best wishes to keep the show’s rating HIGH…
Silence Candice Patton. Silence her fans.
Insert replacement actress, Barry’s own Felicity, who looks better kissing him.
Eradicate Barry and Iris ever knowing each other.
Please the masses.
Ratings ???????
What do you mean?
The Flash is holding its audience in season 2. Very impressive.
I think you should keep making more, because there aren’t that many superhero shows out there that are this good
i think its quite good series so far having only seen episode 1 of series 2
