While the CBS audience tends to skew older, the Tiffany Network still packs ’em in, when it comes to total audience size. A number of its dramas are getting long in the tooth and their Nielsen ratings have declined over the years, so it’s always in search of the next hit. Enter The Red Line TV show. Will its themes of community, class, and race appeal to viewers, or drive them away in droves? Will The Red Line be cancelled or renewed for season two, possibly with a new cast? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
A CBS limited series, The Red Line stars Noah Wyle, Emayatzy Corinealdi, Noel Fisher, Howard Charles, Aliyah Royale, Michael Patrick Thornton, Vinny Chhibber, Corey Reynolds, and Elizabeth Laidlaw. The drama centers on three separate Chicago families forever changed by the shooting of an unarmed African American doctor, by a white police officer. As it delves into life in three distinct neighborhoods, the series explores how our circumstances affect our experience.
