Last season, Arrow surpassed The Vampire Diaries as the most-watched show on The CW. Will this show’s ratings continue to drop this season? Is it essentially guaranteed to be renewed for a seventh season or could it be cancelled? Stay tuned.
The Vampire Diaries revolves around the search for love and the battle between good 04 17 2015 11 36
and evil in the supernatural-charged town of Mystic Falls, Virginia. The cast includes Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, Ian Somerhalder, Steven R. McQueen, Kat Graham, Candice Accola, Zach Roerig, Michael Trevino, Matt Davis, Michael Malarkey, and Chris Brochu.
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 — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
1/11 update: The Vampire Diaries and seven other shows have been renewed for the 2015-16 season.
Final season averages: 0.72 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.54 million total viewers.

For comparisons: The fifth season of The Vampire Diaries averaged a 1.0 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.23 million total viewers.
Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you still like The Vampire Diaries TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a seventh season?
If vampire diaries gets canceled the originals will go to julie plec will answer This question
I love this show still. Fan from day one! But I do tend to watch it either later when I have it recorded on my DVR so I can skip all the commercials which I feel ALOT of people do now!! Also sometimes when I’m on vacation or something ill just download it commercial free from a torrent or something.. So not liking the show is NOT the problem
Thats exactly what i do!
I’m shocked that the ratings for 6×15 are so low. I thought it was a good episode. I think alot of people watch it on their dvr and that’s why the ratings are so low. In my opinion they should count dr viewings also in the ratins, I think the ratings would be higher than.
Im not shocked, in fact i called it. Episode 14 was terrible and i tweeted julie plec that the ratings would drop for episode 15
I hope that Paul and nina would stay on vampire dairies season 7 I hear they might be doing other projects if they leave I am done so vampire diaries has a spin off show the originals so if TVD ends The Originals will go JuIle plec would say that could be true
With the series progressed well this season.
I’ve been a loyal viewer from the beginning, but I think they are running out of material. I think it’s probably best to end the show now and keep the good first 5 seasons (the 6th is slow.) A lot of the characters are running out of a reason to be in the show and it’s getting awkward (Matt, Tyler, Enzo, Jeremy)…. I’m glad Steven McQueen left the show because his character wasn’t going anywhere anymore. Soon other characters will have to leave if the show doesn’t end.

Yes Well, “Mark” is the ONE in CHARGE, He is definitely keeping TVD and The Orginals because people are watching them and they loved them and it will be renewed mark is making the right choice on keeping them his not canceling them
TVD Is the best go vampire daires keep on renewing your show for 25 seasons
If people don’t like this show then watch something else vampire daires is the best they’re a lot of fans that are still watch TVD its in ongoing show and mark doesn’t want to cancel TVD or the orginals and mark is also watching these shows tooo
Well, “Mark” isn’t the ONE in CHARGE, he’s just the ‘figure’ head and is ONLY there for promo etc..HE doesn’t MAKE or GET to choice which shows is going to be cancel or continue..It’s CBS and WB.
TVS and TO are both CRAP and a JOKE!
I love vampire diaries and hope it goes on for another six seasons anyone who think other wise really need a reality check because the show is all about how characters inner act with each other and deal with protecting the ones they love, how they reverse the spell around Mystic Fall and go home then deal with the vampire hunters and by the way Katherine was the first one to be sucked into the abyss that was sucking in every supernatural creature on the other side or purgatory, also vampire diaries is just as good as supernatural saying one… Read more »
This show is starting to suck. It’s the same thing over and over. They’re running out of ideas yes. They need to start reading those Damn books and get in line. The show is failing because the writers are getting too comfortable, all they do is whine about their feelings and fall in love and villians are always like Damon. Lao for instance is sarcastic all the time and an ******* for instead of being serious about his motives and following through he just talks alllll the time. Enzo too! The guy is just there wasting space being just like… Read more »
The Vampire Diaries sucks! Go Supernatural!
The vampire diaries is just as good as supernatural and to say other wise is blasphemy
and Katherine was the first one to be sucked into the abyss that sucking up all the supernatural creatures on the other side or purgatory.
You’re KIDDING RIGHT!! SPN has SURVIVED all and is in it’s 10th S but the TRASH that is TVD can’t even GET 2mill viewers at all and is DROPPING and FAST! It’s DEAD and honestly, it’s cliche and just BAD writing after bad writing. The ratings of SPN says it can go on for ANOTHER 3 Season even, IF the two ACTORS are game!
everybody likes different things, so what if it isn’t your cup of tea? get over yourself because some people actually enjoy (your so called “trash”) the vampire diaries. i personally think it’s amazing. 🙂

TVD is the best show and I want them to keep on renewing Vampire daires because its enjoyable to watch I would like to see more of damon and Elena romance stefan and caroline romance bonnie and jeremy romance
I only want to know when will bonnie return back to mystic falls ayana benett and Emily Bennet had a special necklace that they used to wear that was remained on the bennett Family bloodline and the Mikaelson family bloodline and the Salvatore family bloodline and I am asking why
Keep dropping! TVD! You deserve it! Julie Plec! You deserve it after killing off Katherine and not explaining her whereabouts.
Vampire diaries is the best the originals Is th3 the best
Hell yeah. It deserves to be canned. This season has been unbearable.
I have been hoping for years that they would kill off the character of Elena. It pisses me off that the ONLY Black cast member is not hardly seen at all too.
i would really like a season 5 cause i love the vampire diaries so much
you do realize season 6 is currently airing right?
You do KNOW that “bonnie’s” character was suppose to be a FAIR-SKINNED, Scottish girl/female and not black, so, in essence, TAKE what they give since they GAVE you a BLACK character when it’s suppose to be Caucasian.
Enough with the whole RACE CARD and black debate..It gets OLD.
And in reality Stefan and Elena are the OTL of the story and Damon ends up with Bonnie. So f you and your “take what they give you.” In case you haven’t noticed many female leads are now black on TV so pretty soon you white women will be taking what ya’ll can get.
Season 6 is so far slow. But extremely loveable. The action is coming. But fans really need to get a grip on. The ratings are down cus of the loveplots not bcs the plots, unfair.
BUT….. thecw should really not base their decision on US fans. TVD is their biggest success show world wide with supernatural/charmed/buffy/oth.
They renewed OTH over and over. And the ratings kept dropping in the US. So seriously that was because of the international success.
You kidding right? THE “LOVEPLOTS” is what IS killing this TRASH of a show..It’s ALL about that ***** elena and the two brothers; nothing else! What are you seeing that THE REST of the world isn’t!
This trash should be CANCEL long ago!
Along with ‘TO’ really.
I like vampire diaries and hope it goes on for another six seasons and anyone who thinks other wise can always not watch it ,it’s not all about Elena, Stefan, and Damon it’s all about the relationships between the characters and how they deal with protecting the ones they love.
I love vampire diaries and hope it goes on for another six seasons and anyone who thinks other wise can change the channel and the show is not all about Elena and the two brothers.
Repeating yourself over and over doesn’t CANCEL out what IS..The show is DEAD..
i doughnut like your opinion. 🙂
i love the vampire diaries so much all i do is watch it over and over again
Me too
i love the vampire diaries so much im glad theres a season 6
