Last year, fans of the Timeless TV show took a big ride on the cancellation/renewal roller coaster. First, NBC cancelled the time travel drama, but after a big outcry, quickly reversed their decision and renewed it for a second season. Can Eric Kripke, Shawn Ryan, and crew get that lucky again? Will Timeless be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned. **Status updates below.
An NBC action-adventure series, Timeless stars Abigail Spencer, Matt Lanter, Malcolm Barrett, Goran Višnjić, Paterson Joseph, Sakina Jaffrey, and Claudia Doumit. Season two picks up right after the events of last season and follows Rufus (Barrett), Wyatt (Lanter), and Lucy (Spencer) on their quest to prevent the destruction of our world as we know it. This season they’ll find an unlikely ally in their mission to destroy Rittenhouse, a deadly organization Lucy’s family has been a part of, for centuries. As they try not to change the past, they will visit 1692, 1917, 1941, 1981 and more, and encounter Marie Curie, Hedy Lamarr, William Randolph Hearst, and other influential historical figures.
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.
12/21 update: You can see the latest night’s ratings in context.
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.
For comparisons: The first season of Timeless on NBC averaged a 1.10 rating in the 18-49 year old demo and 4.624 million average total viewers.
What do you think? Do you like the Timeless TV series? Should it have been cancelled or renewed for a third season on NBC?

Losing interest in it. Probably won’t watch a Season 3.
Our family loves this show. It has something for everyone. It has the intrique, romance and history as well as action for the adults to enjoy and the science, tech, space adventure and history for our sons ages 9 and 12 the enjoy. We most definitely want a season 3!
Season 2 is great. Love the twists and turns especially Wyatt’s wife returning. Flynn is awesome working with the team. Rufus still my fav, Connor great in the blues episode. Thanks for renewing, now on to season 3. Please renew
Great show! Time travel expanded for fans of Back to the Future movies.
I really enjoy the history and the idea of time travel. It has a unique perspective. Time travel expanded for fans of Back to the Future!
Best show on TV. Please renew for season 3. The Lucy and Wyatt love story has captivated an audience. Don’t cancel!!!!
The problem with the rating system is that it doesn’t seem to account for NBC “On Demand” viewing or “Firestick/Ruku/Apple TV” viewing. That what I watch most of my TV shows on.
Timeless is an amazing show and needs to be renewed. It also needs abetter time slot. Thankful for pvr just so I can see the show.
My family’s favorite show! We always have to watch it on demand because of the 10:00 time slot but we always make a point to do so.
Please renew #timeless. It’s a great show that helped me amd my sisters tin pass our gcses and also a fun historical shiw with a hint of romance. What’s not to like.
Love this show, hoping for a RENEW!!!!
Renew #Timeless. One of the best programs on t.v. Great writing, awesome cast and crew. It has a loyal fan base and we deserve a season 3.
