Once again, NBC is launching a new TV show in the timeslot following The Voice. While the ratings are always very positive in the beginning, the numbers frequently plunge once the series is moved to another night. Some of these shows have been renewed, some have been cancelled. Will Timeless see a second season? Stay tuned.
An action-adventure series, Timeless begins as a mysterious criminal (Goran Visnjic) steals a secret state-of-the-art time machine, intent on destroying America by changing the past. The country’s only hope is an unexpected team of a history professor (Abigail Spencer), a soldier (Matt Lanter), and a scientist (Malcolm Barrett) as they embark on the adventure of a lifetime to stop the villain. The rest of the cast includes Paterson Joseph, Sakina Jaffrey and Claudia Doumit.
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.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page or view it here.
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 like the Timeless TV series? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
5/13 update: NBC reversed their decision to cancel Timeless and renewed the series for a second season. Details here.
My whole family, including 8 and 10 year old girls, love Timeless. It’s one of the few shows we all watch together and we really look forward to it! Especially my 8 year old who asks so many questions about the plots and has become a history buff! We would be so sad if it was canceled! Please, more Timeless!!!!
Please RENEW Timeless! It’s a great show and deserves a second season!!
Timeless is the best show I’ve seen in a really long while! It’s so much fun, and it actually makes me want to read up on history too! PLEASE DON’T CANEL IT!!! Just give people a little more time to discover it, and I know they’ll get hooked like I am. PLEASE RENEW FOR A SEASON 2!!!
This is a great show and should be brought back for a srcond season. It is exciting, funny at times and even a little educational. What more could a person ask. Please bring it back!
Please renew this show for a second season. It is different than the usual programming and I love the way I keep learning new historical facts in such a fun way
This is a unique show. So much better than many other dramas. I love watching Timeless and this hopefully will continue to a second season. Don’t cancel!

Advertise the show more now that the dratted football will b over soon. There is ver little on any of the networks that is of the overall quality that Timeless exhibits. Please do not!!! This show go.. You have the opportunity to continue showing a quality program. Thank you Mrs Pat Hurley.
This is the best TV show ever and should definitely be renewed for second season.
Honestly, it’s the best new show that’s come out in awhile. I love it. It’s new and different and should be renewed for a second season. I’m always anticipating the next episode and am very excited when it comes out every Monday.
Love the show !!! Please don’t cancel it !
I hope y’all bring the show back and have season 2…I really liked it!
Love it!! Please do not cancel it!!!
Love this show please renew, and tell the network executives to stop moving the time slots around it’s very confusing……
Every time a show become good and I am left gripping the sofa at the end and begging for more, the network pull the plug. Please allow Timeless to continue, there is lots and lots of history lines that the show could follow.
Love the show! Please renew!
