This evening marks the season finale of the Turn TV show on AMC. Will it also be the series finale as well? Will this drama get a chance to grow in season two or will it be cancelled after one short season?
Taking place during the American Revolutionary War, Turn follows a group of friends who become spies and help turn the tide of the war. The cast includes Amy Gumenick, Angus Macfadyen, Burn Gorman, Daniel Henshall, Heather Lind, JJ Feild, Jamie Bell, Kevin McNally, Meegan Warner, and Seth Numrich.
The show debuted on April 6th to 2.12 million viewers. In week two, the series dropped 12% to 1.87 million and week three dropped 25% to 1.40 million. Turn has been dropping nearly every week and has fallen to a low of just 1.08 million.
Will the show be cancelled? It’s difficult to predict what a cable channel like AMC will do because they have so few scripted series to compare. It’s certainly not positive that the ratings have dropped but they aren’t nearly as low as Low Winter Sun’s from last fall. Plus, last week’s debut of Halt and Catch Fire didn’t do much better with 1.19 million viewers.
AMC could go either way with this one but I suspect that it will be renewed for a second season. We’ll have to wait and see.
But, what do you think? Have you been watching? Should the Turn TV series be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Great show. I love it and could watch an episode a night. Keep it on
Please renew Turn for a second season !
I hope this series is renewed!
Please renew this AMC! I’m completely addicted. My 19 year olds do as well.

I personally think that show was one of the best recent new Shows and should definitely be renewed
My husband and I really like this show. So different from the reality TV crap that dominates TV these days. It’s too intelligent for the masses who think the tenth version of Real Housewives of [name a city] is good TV. It’s about our nation’s actual history, so it can’t be worth watching, right? Wrong. This is good, really good, drama. I hope AMC gives it a second season.
If a series like TURN is cancelled, then it is a good indicator that the American public has devolved into mindless imbeciles.
Amen to that!!! This show should be required TV watching for all high school juniors and seniors taking American history!
This is definitely a show that should be renewed. The characters that are coming out of this story really do add another element to how important this historical group was in the Revolutionary War. Please renew.
I do enjoy the show despite its major historical errors. I live in Stony Brook which is a neighbor of Setauket and Old Field. There was a long article in our local newspaper “Three Village Hearald”. The Three Village Historical society had a long list of historical errors that the show contains. Many of the characters go on to live long lives. Our children learn about many of the main characters in local history. Despite this I think that the show should continue.
RENEW!!!!
Please keep great dram and outstanding acting going in renewing Turn.
Actually ALL the MAJOR players lived long lives. Simcoe became a Big Time Political force in CANA DA!
I think this is a very great show. A great opportunity to learn a little history. Abe Woodhull and Anna Strong are my favorite characters and I can’t wait to see how season two unfolds. Please bring this back for another season.
Very good show. Need to renew it. But I’m sure you will cancel it and put on some stupid reality show or Dumb sitcom
