CBS has had great success during the summer months with their Big Brother series, a reality show that airs several times a week. Will FOX find similar success in the ratings with their Utopia TV show? Will it be renewed for a second season or, will it be cancelled? Stay tuned.
Typically airing twice a week on Tuesdays and Fridays, Utopia follows a group of regular people who are relocated to a remote area and given limited resources. They must figure out how to survive and create their own society.Those who are dispensable can be voted out and replaced with newcomers.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — typically the following morning, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
10/1 update: FOX has cut the Tuesday airings of Utopia but it will continue to air on Fridays.

Note: These are the final national numbers (unless noted with an “*”). These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.
What do you think? Do you like the Utopia TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
UPDATE: Is Utopia headed for cancellation already?
Take it off .the sooner the better…
horrible show! Please cancel this. TV is supposed to be entertaining and an escape. This is torture watching everyone argue over petty issues. I can watch The View if I want to see this type of idiotic behavior!
This show is another demonstration of TV execs choosing people with “issues”, who will definitely not cooperate with one another, so there is built-in conflict and turmoil. Where is Utopia located? Hopefully they will have lovely weather for the whole year & not have to deal with any storms, WINTER, crop failure (are they even growing anything?), crops eaten by animals, insect infestation, or any other hardship. I’m sure they would not survive. As for the pregnant woman, is she NUTS??? Is she taking prenatal vitamins? What about Dr visits? Is she going to leave, go to the Dr then… Read more »
I have never understood this “no one is home in the summer, but home in the fall” stuff My kids have way more activities in the fall and winter, you know when school is in session like football, soccer, basketball, volleyball, school plays, then there are parent/teacher nites etc etc none of which happen in the summer. yes we take a long vacation in the summer but we take short trips in the fall and winter as well. and are you saying people don’t go to the movies,concerts, out to dinner in the fall and winter? if so then why… Read more »
Not to argue with but when the weather starts to cool off people start to stay home. Also it starts getting darker sooner and people do stay inside more. In the summer people stay out later and tend to be more outdoorsy. You can say anything you want but thats human nature. Its been that way since forever. The reason behind thanksgiving and Christmas movie rush has more to do with school vacations and families getting together and wanting to do something. It all boils down to human nature. TV execs have over 50 years of data that they can… Read more »
I guess living in an area of the country where the weather is pretty much the same all year round clouds my judgement.
PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT CANCEL!!!!
To many people with not enough common sense to get there heads out of there ass and as far as the pastor he shouldn’t have to put up with the bull **** so. I hope god will be with him all the way also children will not learn nothing from this show booze,naked women and all the arguments not good I hope my grandchildren dont ever get to see this.plus they have the wrong people trying out for this show
About as interesting as watching paint dry. Phony as a Ford Corvette! I’d sooner watch reruns of last week’s weather forecast.
About the only worse reality garbage on TV are those absurd, phony dating/relationship shows.
I am going to try and give this a chance. My issue is that there are many unlikable people that are so over the top that it makes me want to change the channel. I do not like the woman who passionately pushes her dumb idea of a chicken tiller. That is annoying beyond belief . It would be more efficient and faster to just till the garden with man power, not chickens….. The excon and the hillbilly are like little children with temper tantrums. The problem is that the people on this show should have first put some structure… Read more »
I’m with you Kendall…..Not sure who picked this bunch of self serving nuts, but they won’t survive and five thousand dollars was a waste. And I’d like to know who taught Red how to divide, 5000 divided by 15 is not 4 hundred something. And since there will be people leaving and new coming, the money should have been divided by the number of days in a year and the number of people 15. If every one there right now took their “fair share” then the new ones would not have a “share”. So far I haven’t seen any type… Read more »
Gail, thank you for responding to my comment. In my eyes, reality tv is no longer reality. It has been proven that many of these so called Reality Stars are coached to cause havoc to increase ratings. I wish that network executives would look at the most popular reality show, which is coincidentally the highest watched show in America, Duck Dynasty. Nobody disrespects each other with hostility, nobody curses at each other, and there are great life and family morals to learn. It’s a very positive show. This actually shows that people do want to see positive content on tv.… Read more »
I had forgotten all about it, never set it up to TiVo. I saw it after it had been on for 10-15 minutes and switched to it. I was able to see the most whinest black guy in the history of TV just scream and shout to get his way. Because he items? were more important then 1 or BOTH of the compound bows. I was embarrassed to share his race. Note I did NOT catch the first part of the show, and turned the station right after the big guy put his arm around “Whiney” to try to calm… Read more »
If this is Utopia, then I prefer real life. Cancel this reality show drivel.
Please do not cancel this show!
No one watches much TV in the summer they are busy doing outside things. It’s old people that can not do much but sit home that watch TV summer and winter. Please bring Judge Alex back I wait for his show all day long Judge Alex and Family Feud is my favorite shows and if it were not for Steve Harvey on Family Feud I would not watch it.
I know quite a few ‘old’ people who are quite busy, in fact more busy outside than some ‘young’ people. So no generalization please. And why are people sitting around watching daytime TV when there is so much to do in life. Work, play, volunteer, read…
I watched the first 15 minutes and moved on. There are much better things on TV, and I am amazed that two million stayed and watched it. It looked like a web series that had escaped to network TV. It is hard to like scripted reality shows.
you on show,,,,NEED TO INVITE THE PROFSOR that won on show–SURVIVOR– -?,,,he was damn smart,,,
I think I am going to actually pray to God that this show gets cancelled.
