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.

Renew it, please. It’s a good family show with great story lines, history and what if’S!
It’s a fantastic show and my wife and I watch every episode. The concept is very intriguing and the acting is great. We are really looking forward to season 2.
Love this show! Please renew for a second season.
This shows great, another with a good plot and an escape from the garbage reality TV or other mindless shows that are out there.
Yes please renew, my family LOVES this show!
RENEW! My kids love us watching this show together.
With all the silly time jump shows out there this one is a breath of fresh air! The chemistry between characters, the story line, and the realness of each different time is just a great combination! Please continue with a second, third, and fourth season!
Love the show! Please keep the show. One of the best shows out there.
I love this show. It has tremendous casting”the costumes are so period specific. It was because of this show I learned about the women portrayed in “Hidden Figures.” The cast is wonderful. Insightful, deliberate story line. MUCH BETTER than the bread and circuses of reality TV
Give Timless a chance. This is a well written, entertaining show. There are many twists and turns and the 2nd season promises to be really good!
Please renew the series for season 2, it is a great program!
From the moment I saw the first preview I wanted to watch this show. The show is incredible, it has become my favorite. We DVR the show and my husband and I cannot wait to see it every week. Please keep this show on the air, it is one of the best shows to come along in quite awhile.
This is literally the best show i have seen so far, I don’t understand why it would be cancelled, please keep it alive!!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE renew Timeless! I love the history factor and the concept of the show as a whole! I mean who doesn’t love the idea of time travel and going back in time to meet historical and famous figures! The season ended on a HUGE cliffhager and I NEED more!!!!!
I’ve always been fascinated with time travel I would love to see the show continue. There are still so many events in history for them to explore
