The show’s ratings have not been great but Undateable will be back for a third season on NBC — but there will be an interesting twist.
Undateable follows a group of single friends who are trying to figure out the fine art of relationships. The cast includes Chris D’Elia, Brent Morin, Ron Funches, Rick Glassman, David Fynn, Bianca Kajlich, and Bridgit Mendler.
The first season of Undateable aired last summer and drew unimpressive ratings, averaging a 0.91 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.78 million viewers. NBC is still struggling in the sitcom department so they renewed it for a second season anyway.
They brought it back in early 2015 as part of the regular season and gave it a solid chance — opting to air it behind their biggest series, The Voice. The numbers have certainly improved but could be much better considering the lead-in. It’s averaged a 1.44 in the demo with 4.94 million.
This week, the cast and crew put on a pair of “live” episodes. You wouldn’t know if from the ratings (viewership was actually down) but the sitcom did get some additional buzz.
Well, now NBC has renewed Undateable for third season — and all of the episodes will be performed “live” for the East Coast audience. There’s a possibility that episodes will be performed again for the West Coast feed as well. It’s unclear if Undateable’s been given a 13 or 22 episode order at this point.
What do you think? Do you like the Undateable TV show? Are you glad that it’s been renewed? Are you more likely to tune in knowing that you’re seeing a real-time “live” performance?
Love this show!! Super stoked that it’s been renewed for a third season! We only found the show after the second season ended and have been waiting for new stuff ever since. Yay!
This show is somewhat a reminder of Cheers. To me this sitcom is hilarious. Maybe needs more publicity. Don’t let this show disappear.
This is a amazing show and more people should watch it
love the show keep it on
We love love love the show!!! Hope it stays on the air for many years to come
I “LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE” this TV show is too funny. I am looking forward for a third season I want to want will happen with Justin and Candace will they date or nahh. Please bring back “UNDATEABLE” for a third season I will be really really really grad.
Love Chris since his performance on Whitney. My husband and I are enjoying Undateable and thought the live show was great! The cast is clearly on a roll and enjoying it. The following one hour episode was very impressive, giving the cast an opportunity to show their talents, especially Chris. Looking forward to fall season.
I don’t get it. Undateable’s ratings were low and so was Constantine, but yet UNDATEABLE gets renewed??!!
Whose making the programming decisions at NBC/Universal??!!
The fact that you could do a full season of UNDATEABLE for the production cost of 3 episodes of Constantine might’ve had something to do with it.
I knew the fate of the show was in jeopardy and it was probably saved by the live episode with Ed Sheeran. IMHO this is the freshest comedy in the TV right now. The cast have a great time during shooting and it shows. I hope it lasts many years.
Keep up the good work!
love love love this show. Adding Bridget medlar was a plus.
Its really strange how NBC Programming Management can renew this show and NOT renew Constantine.
glad it’s back, really like the show and it’s cast. glad to see a network giving a show a real chance, unlike abc and their quick hatchet.
This show is hilarious, if people aren’t watchin their really missing out
It is a great combination of Cheers and Friends. Try a marathon showing or make it available on Netflix. Lots of folks not watching TV anymore any trying to skip the commercials. Give this show a chance, I love it!! (P.S. My demographic is 57 yr old white, married, male!!) keep up the good work, maybe take them out of the babe once in a while and hype up some of the good things of Detroit. They could go to a Tigers or Lions game or do a Habitat for Humanity project, soup kitchen, etc. and there’s always humor in… Read more »
