What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the Showtime cable channel, The Man Who Fell to Earth TV show was inspired by the Walter Tevis novel and the David Bowie film. It stars Chiwetel Ejiofor, Naomie Harris, Jimmi Simpson, Rob Delaney, Sonya Cassidy, Joana Ribeiro, Annelle Olaleye, Kate Mulgrew, Clarke Peters, and Bill Nighy. The story follows a new alien character (Ejiofor) who crashes in the oil fields of New Mexico at a turning point in human evolution and must confront his own past to determine our future.

Season One Ratings
The first season of The Man Who Fell to Earth averaged a 0.02 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 149,000 viewers in the live+same day ratings (including 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.

Please let the directors and authors know hat the brought a light of joy to an old musician and science lover back at the end of his life.
Great show! Awesome continuance of the original movie. Showtime cancels the best shows! Why?
I only subscribe to Showtime because of the series “The Man who fell from Earth”. I’m very disappointed that they are not going to renew the series. I’m going to cancel my subscription when I’m done watching it. If they create Season 2, I will subscribe again to Showtime to watch it.
I hope it gets another season. Marketed better it’d do well
