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.

You can’t cancel Timeless my wife and I love it.
Please do not cancel Timeless!!!!
One of the best shows on TV.
It is refreshing to have a show that is not the same old mindless sitcom or redo cop/crime show; a show that makes you think in a different way with an educational perspective regarding history which is rich with material. I like it and find it more believable, believe it or not, than shows like Scorpion. The show will need to broaden the focus as I think the Rittenhouse angle can only play so long. There are not a lot of shows I like to watch since I avoid the reality shows, “contest” shows, and I come and go with… Read more »
I love this show it’s so intelligence, and well thought out .I really hope it’s renewed.The actors are so good they make me want keep coming back.
Renew Timeless, definitely for sure. NBC did a really despicable thing against the show by airing it right alongside Scorpion on CBC. How can they hope to gain viewers when you ari a program directly against a program that appeals to the exact same kind and type of viewer base?
Show Timeless earlier at night, 8:30PM or 9:00PM would be just right.
This show deserves a renewal, since all the ****** shows are being renewed and the good ones cancelled. At last Timeless is a show with quality, beautifully written.
I hope that they renew Timeless, my husband and I love it.
Yes, I want this series to be renewed. I thoroughly enjoy the show – its events of history and its actors are very good! Please renew for season 2.
Renew please!
