Cable’s Hot New Fantasy-Adventure Show Reached 11.4 Million Viewers Each Week
TNT has renewed its hit fantasy-adventure The Librarians. One of the hottest new shows on cable, The Librarians burst onto the scene with a chart-topping launch in December and went on to finish the year as basic cable’s #2 new series of 2014, second only to TNT’s The Last Ship. The show’s success extends across TNT’s multiple platforms, with each week’s episode reaching an average of 11.4 million viewers through linear telecasts, DVR playback and VOD, digital and mobile viewing. TNT has ordered 10 episodes for the second season, which is slated to launch later this year.
Based on TNT’s hit movie franchise, The Librarians centers on an ancient organization hidden beneath the Metropolitan Public Library dedicated to protecting an unknowing world from the secret, magical reality hidden all around. Rebecca Romijn (X-Men), Christian Kane (TNT’s Leverage, Angel), Lindy Booth (Dawn of the Dead, The Philanthropist) and John Kim (Neighbors, The Pacific) star in the series as the newest protectors of the world’s mystical treasures, with Emmy® winner John Larroquette (Night Court, Deception) as their reluctant caretaker. Noah Wyle (Falling Skies, ER) recurs as Flynn Carsen, the role he played in TNT’s movie trilogy.

What do you think? Do you like The Librarians TV show on TNT? Do you think it should have been renewed or cancelled instead?
Great show. Lots of fun.
I thought the movies where Great, but I think the TV series is better then the movies. Been trying to buy on DVD but have only found streaming and instant video.
I’m so happy to hear that The Librarians is continuing for a second season, and I hope for many seasons of it to come afterwards. I own all of the original movies of The Librarian that the series was based on, and have already purchased the first season of The Librarians to add to my collection. I absolutely love these movies and shows. I truly hope they keep the episodes coming for a long time.
