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: 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 Timeless
This show has to be renewed. It’s too fantastic, besides the story just got real (**** just got real).I won’t lie season one was a some point boring some episodes felt too long but with the way it was concluded I want to see a second season. I’m so pumped rn
I love Timeless! It is one of the type of shows that keeps me wanting more, while the time travel aspect of it is sooo interesting. I can’t imagine them ever running out of ideas, since there is a whole history to go through. I rarely get into shows really ever, while yet for some reason looked forward for Timeless every week. Great show!
Please please renew Timeless! It’s one of my favorite shows and there so many more historical moments they could go to. Do the Zimmermann Telegram, the Boston Strangler, George Henry Thomas and the Battle of Chickamauga or any battle during the Civil War, Mark Twain, Pearl Harbor, Amelia Earhart, the sinking of the Lusitania, the settlement of Jamestown, the Louisiana Purchase, Walt Disney, the Manhattan Project, the Zodiac Killer, and maybe even the hippie movement during the Vietnam war, and the assassination of JFK. And I think the two coolest events they could do is the RMS Titanic and the… Read more »

Please bring back Timeless!!! It, along with The Voice, are literally the only time I watch TV. I love the history behind the show and the suspense! I have to know what happens whether it is on NBC or any other channel. Please!!!
We really liked this series. There was an attention to historic detail that I loved, and as someone else noticed, an almost endless amount of characters, and plots to choose from.
Please…BRING IT BACK!!!
Timeless is a reminder of what good t.v used to be like before everything was about sex. I looked forward to this show every week, it was comfortying to watch. Love the characters, love the plot. Would like to see them go back in time when Jesus walked the earth…So many other great time periods or not so great time periods LOL! Several close calls on the show. Don’t let us down!
I love this show so PLEASE don’t take it away from me, I am so sick and tried of getting hooked on a show only to have it ripped away. BRING BACK SEASON 2.
