While The Neighbors didn’t attract a large audience in its first season, ABC decided to renew it and move the show to Friday nights. Will viewers make the move as well. Will the ratings be good enough to ensure a third season or will the series be cancelled instead? We shall see.
A family sitcom, The Neighbors follows the Weaver clan as they try to live in a beautiful gated community that’s filled with alien visitors from the planet Zabvron. The ensemble castmembers are Jami Gertz, Lenny Venito, Simon Templeman, Toks Olagundoye, Tim Jo, Clara Mamet, Ian Patrick, Isabella Cramp, and Max Charles.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — typically around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

What do you think? Do you still like The Neighbors TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a third season?
Renew!!!! Funniest show ever!!!
Keep the show, get rid of Jane, fix Reggie and Amber! I love this show!
Great family show. Not many 30 minute shows that the whole family can watch. But why is it on Friday night?
I love this show. Please leave it alone.
Love this show. So funny, so smart. I disagree! Girl power yes, feminist agenda no. Love this show.
Nooooooo! It’s one little half hour, can’t you find a space for it? Run it at 3AM and let everyone who loves it DVR it, or do a deal with hulu or netflix, but don’t stop!!!!!
We enjoy The Neighbors vey much! It is both smart and funny. Having the aliens living next door gives the writers many more opportunities to deal with family sitcom and real life family issues. We really hope it is renewed for a fourth season!
I LOVE this show! It’s innovative and refreshing compared to other new shows I’ve watched. The most hilarious sitcom I’ve seen in a long time. PLEASE KEEP IT!!
I LOVE this show, it is hilarious! One of a kind, very refreshing compared to other shows. KEEP IT!!
This show is horrible. It is unfunny. It has the children saying very adult things. It is rampant with feminism and with each show they pour on the feminism, as if women identify with militant feminism as a group. Yes, 80% of tv audiences today are now women, but pouring on a feminist human mother, and advises the alien mother, a super-ultra-feminist older daughter, that advises the feminist younger sister, is over the top. To top it off, each episode is filled with mysandrism on the part of the human wife, towards her who, for whatever reason, never back hands… Read more »
What is mysandrism?
Misandrism is the opposite of misogyny but the writer has it wrong about this show.
It is positive, joyful and fun! No stupid hidden agendas here.
Just good clever writing and I love that new Jazzy Jeff!!
Funny…I don’t see any ultra feminist agenda in this show, and I’m a woman who grew up in the 60’s-70’s, so believe me I know what radical feminism looks like ( and it’s not pretty!) I find the writers comment about “the wife” never being “back-handed” or served with divorce papers interesting. I suspect from those comments that Shakaama is a Muslim male ( or brainwashed female) of the old school, who simply doesn’t understand 1st world humor. Besides which, since he can’t name any of the characters, I suspect that he’s never actually watched it.
The show is fantastic. Keep it, please!
It is a funny, well written show with humor a bit more sophisticated than most. It should be renewed. But that would take stones by someone at the network
Keep it
Do not want the neighbors tv show to be cancelled. My husband and I enjoy the show a lot.
‘The Neighbors’ is a very creative show with smart, witty humor. It subtly hints at references from ‘Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy’ and ‘The Jetsons’. There is no other show like it. Keep it and keep us entertained!
