This series from ABC News was billed as a limited series, so a second-season renewal isn’t expected. Still, game shows have been around for a long time, and there’s certainly more than enough material for another round of episodes if the ratings are good enough. Will The Game Show Show be renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
A documentary series, The Game Show Show celebrates one of history’s most beloved and durable television genres. Viewers are invited to spin the wheel, beat the clock, guess the answer, and play along through 80 years of game show history.

The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances of survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

Note: These are the final national ratings, including all live+same day viewing and DVR playback (through 3:00 AM). Early fast affiliate ratings (estimates) are indicated with an “*”. 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.
