Once again, there’s no need to worry that The Floor will be cancelled since it’s already been renewed for a seventh season. Will FOX stop airing two cycles a year or just keep running the program until it runs out of gas? Stay tuned.

A trivia game show with a twist, The Floor TV series is hosted by Rob Lowe. As the season-long competition begins, 100 contestants face off in duels on a giant grid of 100 squares representing their field of trivia expertise. The first challenger, selected randomly, must choose one of his or her neighboring opponents to go head-to-head in an epic quiz duel in the opponent’s category. The winner takes over the loser’s square, gaining valuable ground as they expand their territory while the loser exits the game. By the end of the season, only one player will walk away with the grand prize of $250,000 in cash.

For comparisons: Season five of The Floor on FOX averaged a 0.24 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 1.98 million viewers.

Note: These are the final national ratings, including all live+same day viewing and 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.
