TNT has had both great successes and big disappointments when it comes to their original scripted shows. Which of the current crop will be cancelled or renewed for another season? Stay tuned!
Scripted TNT shows listed: Agent X, Animal Kingdom, Claws, Dallas, Falling Skies, Franklin & Bash, Good Behavior, The Last Ship, Legends, The Librarians, Major Crimes, Murder in the First, Perception, Proof, Public Morals, Rizzoli & Isles, Transporter: The Series, and Will.
Last updated: Most recent ratings added for The Last Ship.
There’s lots of data that TNT execs look at when deciding whether to renew or cancel a TV series but ratings are the major ingredient. Here’s an updated listing of all of their recent/current primetime scripted shows.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated charts, please try reloading the page. You can also view them here and here.
A couple of notes about these charts:
These figures are updated automatically as new ratings are released (usually a day or so after the broadcasts). The averages are based on the final national numbers (live plus same day viewing). For technical reasons, I have to resort them manually so feel free to let me know if I missed something.
The demo numbers, which are typically most important to the broadcast networks, aren’t quite as vital to cable channels because their audiences are usually much smaller. Demo numbers are typically reported using the 10ths decimal place (2.4, for example). In the averages, I’m using an extra decimal for easier ranking.
What do you think? Are you surprised by any of the ratings? Which shows should be doing better? Which one do you think will be cancelled next?

Loving GOOD BEHAVIOR ! It can never be cancled ! It’s so great !
So shocked to hear Will may be cancelled. Such a well done show. We need to see what happens to Alice and Topcliff. Please reconsider.
Shocked Will is cancelled but Claws in renewed. ridiculous. Hopefully TNT will reconsider. Will is so well done.
Bring back WILL! This was a clever and fun show which offered a refreshing look at Shakespeare’s world-real and imagined! The cast is full of skilled actors who are brilliant and entertaining in Punk Rock Elizabethan England. One of the dumbest moves TNT ever did was to not give this show a chance! Bring back WILL!
Loved Will; discovered it by accident. Would love for Netflix to pick it up. Also a huge fan of Major Crimes and looking forward to its return.
My husband and I really enjoyed Will! We looked forward to it every week. When tonight’s episode said season finale, I logged on to find out when season 2 would start. Big disappointment! Maybe Netflix will pick it up! It just needed more publicity and time to catch on. We’re still waiting for Sherlock season to restart too. Now, nothing worth watching…
I love Will!

I love dallas please consider the show thanks kristie!!!
TNT can **** off. #SaveDallas
We love Major Crimes! My family and I can watch this shoe together and it’s not too raunchy and depicts the hard and courageous work of police officers. Please keep this show going. We loved The Closer and richly enjoy keeping up with this “family” of real-to-life officers of Major Crimes. It’s the best show on TV.
Love the show “Will.”
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Will! I didn’t actually find this show until the whole season was over but watched it all on demand. I couldn’t believe the ratings weren’t through the roof. I really really hope it gets renewed. I love how they use the modern music and punk out their outfits. Gives it a nice twist. Can’t wait for another season… binged the whole first season in about a week!
It took about 3 shows, but I am really liking Will. Mixing modern with the Elizabethan period put me off at first, but now I get the concept. This is hinting at “art house” stuff. Solid actors, semi-historical accuracy and great Shakespeare writings scattered throughout. But, I expect it to be cancelled– too highbrow for most.
Animal Kingdom is a crappy one…And yet renewed. TNT…?? Where do you search out your ratings? If you keep animal kingdom you must be showing it at the Zoo and taking animal ratings. Stupid show…
I agree. It’s a trashy show about trasht people. It almost glorifies being a lowlife. If there was ever evidence of moral and intellectual decline in this country, this nasty piece of work is it.
How was Rizzoli&Isles cancelled? It seems to me by looking at the ratings, that it was #1, followed by Major Crimes #2. I don’t understand
hierachy wanted it gone after tamaro was sacked it went downhill as new boss came in and nash took over and lees death they should have cancelled major crimes instead
