Fans don’t have to worry whether HBO’s Vice Principals TV show will be cancelled or renewed for season three, but only because star Danny McBride — who created the comedy with Jody Hill — has long said it was conceived as a two season TV series. So, why are we still tracking the ratings? Well, it’s fun, but also, the ratings inform the threshold for other HBO TV show cancellations and renewals, so stay tuned.
A scripted sitcom, Vice Principals stars McBride as Neal Gamby and Walton Goggins as Lee Russell. The HBO cast also includes Kimberly Hebert Gregory, Georgia King, Busy Philipps, Shea Whigham, and Sheaun McKinney. Both Gamby and Russell want to be the next North Jackson High School Principal. Although they hate one another, they team up to oust Dr. Belinda Brown (Hebert Gregory). .
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

What do you think? Do you like the Vice Principals TV series? Is it ending at the right time, or do you wish it would be renewed for season three on HBO?
I absolutely LOVE Vice Principals. I watch no mainstream TV at all. I watch many HBO shows and love them. This is the funniest show ever and I laugh outloud and cannot wait until the next episode. I wish it would have a season 3. I think the content is there for Danny McBride to continue…please!!! Please surprise your fans!!! I have went back and watched season 1 all over again. I am praying no one gets killed off on the next two episodes so there can be a season 3. PLEASE!!!
