Tonight marks the end of the second season of The Mysteries of Laura and it may end up being the end of the series as well. How’s the NBC TV show been doing in the ratings? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a third season?
The Mysteries of Laura revolves around a brilliant-but-harried NYPD homicide detective (Debra Messing) who must also juggle raising her young twin boys as a single mom. The rest of the cast includes Josh Lucas, Laz Alonso, Janina Gavankar, Max Jenkins, Callie Thorne, and Med Steedle.
The series began airing in Fall 2014 and the network no doubt had high expectations for the show. The first season ended up averaging a 1.22 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 7.45 million viewers. It was hardly an impressive showing but NBC renewed it for a second season anyway, likely hoping that the audience would grow in time.
Season two of Mysteries of Laura doesn’t seem to have attracted any new viewers but the cop family drama hasn’t lost many either. Year-to-year, the ratings are down less than 10% which is pretty good considering how much other dramas have been losing. Still, the ratings are far from good.
Laura is one of NBC’s lowest-rated drama series right now and is one of the few that’s yet to be cancelled or renewed for next season. Looking at the numbers, they could certainly go either way with this one. Their decision will likely have a lot to do with how their new show pilots look. We’ll know what they decide in May at the latest.
But, what do you think? Should Mysteries of Laura be renewed for a third season or cancelled instead?
Please renew. We love this show.
Please renew! It’s the best show…my favorite. Got my husband hooked too. Just one more season and let Jake get back with Laura.
Please RENEW, RENEW, RENEW!!! This is a great cop show with such an awesome twist! I love Laura & she & Jake MUST get back together but we’ll never know unless you RENEW, RENEW, RENEW!!!!
Please renew. This is a wonderful program. The characters are all believable and the program is not filled with bloody murders. We actually should have more of this type of program!
RENEW! If we can’t catch it, we DVR it, but it is def. one of the shows we make sure to catch. Love the characters, the writing is snappy, the mysteries hold you through the show & are not so completely obvious you figure it out in the first 5 minutes. It’s actually one of the more original shows on right now.
If they pull this to put on more reality crap, or another offshoot of something to do with people’s weight, voices, or talent/ability to embarrass themselves, then they’ll loose an entire household of viewers.
renew I have always enjoyed it very much
