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?
Season 1 heck started good, had a good story line and acting but the latest season is Worse. So every episode a new superheroes arrive and flash has to save the city, these new characters introduced are worse actually unnecessary addition.
More like a childish characters
I don’t understand how could people like the current season it is not even a good past time show
Amazing show and cast. I can’t wait for season 3.
This show is awesome. Renewed Please.
This show should be cancelled terrible acting if people read this stopping watch show it no good read the DC comics way better stories some of them are but stopping watch Arrow and The Flash because two shows are same created by same people it just not good shows to me honest opinion about them.
I think this is cheesy and I think it should be cancelled!
Flash is UP Arrow is Down
*another chance
Agents of SHIELD is much better now, I’m not Trolling, But AoS is not given even close to enough credit. Many dropped out in S1, can’t really blame them but I personally saw the potential, Since S1B it has only gone from strength to strength each episode. Unlike Flash VFX is uncomparable and in AoS they have believable characters with limitations. Couldn’t urge ye enough to give it another show.

I hope the flash is here for awhile
