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?
Please renew! There is so little on TV worth watching. This is one.
Please renew!! It’s refreshing, well acted, well written and the characters are compelling. Give it a chance!
RENEW !!!!!!
TURN is the best………great acting, storyline, interesting, compelling and historical.
The one to DUMP is Halt and Catch Fire. That thing couldn’t catch fire if you poured a gallon of gas on it. Terrible scripting, worse acting……………..boring to boot.
KEEP “TURN” ……….but dump Halt and Catch Fire, which after watching 2 episodes, I’m done with this boring, poorly acted but predictable mess.
TURN
Everyone that I know that has seen the show loves it, but it is a matter of getting people to even hear about it. Breaking Bad’s numbers the first three season’s where not any better and that was on for something like 5 or 6 seasons. Turn is well written, acted and produced. Please renew it. It is so much better than that “reality TV” that is so mindless. This is thought provoking and entertaining.
Please renew. My entire family has enjoyed Turn.
Definitely renew the show for another season at the very least. It is well written and the acting is superb. I looked forward to it every week. There is a lot more to tell about the Culver Ring and it would be a shame to leave us hanging (no pun intended). I was so intrigued that I bought the two books out there that gives the spies their due.
I meant Culper Ring. Curse you auto correct.
Auto correct is your *****.
Please renew this show.
Renew this show is great.
Please renew this intelligent and riveting drama!
Renew
I love this show! Please renew!!!!!! It took me about three episodes to really get into it because there were so many characters and the plot was intricate. By the 4 the episode I loved it. I went back and watched the entire series and because I knew who the characters were, I loved the first 3 episodes as well.
The show is outstanding and definitely should be renewed. Well written, well acted and it is the history our great county. A show of great substance.
Great Show! There is more to scope to justify a second season. Since I’m invested in the characters I would like to see what happens next and if they get away with the deception at the end. Jamie Bell did an outstanding job of showing his character’s internal conflicts between duty and what he believed was right.
