What’s This TV Show About?

A primetime soap opera airing on the BET cable channel, Tyler Perry’s The Oval stars Ed Quinn, Kron Moore, Javon Johnson, Ptosha Storey, Vaughn Hebron, Teesha Renee, Daniel Croix Henderson, Lodric D. Collins, Ciera Payton, Walter Fauntleroy, Taja V. Simpson, Brad Benedict, Travis Cure, Matthew Law, Bill Barrett, Derek A. Dixon, Nick Barrotta, Nelson Estevez, Kaye Singleton, and Russell Thomas. The TV show begins as a new First Family moves into the White House. The series lifts the veil of what can happen when the leader of the free world, his wife, and family are crazed maniacs. The series also highlights the personal side and everyday lives of the staff who run the inner workings of the nation’s most iconic residence. As the fifth season begins, Victoria devises an alternative strategy after Hunter finds himself in a dangerous predicament. Bobby finds himself taking the brunt of Priscilla’s hatred towards Sam.
 

Season Five Ratings

The fifth season of Tyler Perry’s The Oval averaged a 0.10 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 648,000 viewers. Compared to season four, that’s down by 12% in the demo and down by 5% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM). While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.

Telly’s Take

Will BET cancel or renew Tyler Perry’s The Oval for season six? The ratings have dropped quite a bit, and the show is no longer BET’s top-rated scripted series. I still think there’s a good chance it will be renewed, possibly for a final season. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.
