What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the CBS television network, Zoo stars James Wolk as zoologist Jackson Oz. The cast also includes Kristen Connolly, Nonso Anozie, Billy Burke, Alyssa Diaz, Josh Salatin, and Gracie Dzienny. After noticing animals behaving strangely during the African safaris he conducts, Oz and his team work to figure out the reason behind it. Meanwhile, the animals assaults become more cunning, coordinated, and ferocious.
Season three of Zoo opens in the year 2027. Thanks to the sterility issue, the human population is still diminishing. Meanwhile, hybrids pose a new threat. This relentless force of lab-created creatures is determined to wipe humans off the face of the earth. Although the team members have grown alienated from each other over the last ten years, Jackson, Jamie (Connolly), Abraham (Anozie), Dariela (Diaz), and Logan (Salatin) have to get past their differences and reunite when they learn that Mitch (Burke) is alive. They must stop the hybrids and their enigmatic creator – someone with a connection to their past.
Season Three Ratings
The third season of Zoo averaged a 0.51 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.65 million viewers. Compared to season two, that’s down by 31% and down by 40%, respectively. Find out how Zoo stacks up against the other CBS TV shows.
On October 23, 2017, Zoo was cancelled so there won’t be a fourth season. Could it be revived somehow? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Although it premiered with even worse numbers than last season, it is difficult to figure out whether CBS will cancel or renew Zoo for season four. Frankly, after a 30% drop in both its demo numbers and audience size, I didn’t expect it to score this third season. I’m also a little put out. Crazy hybrids aren’t the only critters who need to feed. I’m happy for the fans of course, but still, I am starving. Personally, I think that the numbers are too low this time around. We’ll see. I’ll keep a hungry eye on the ratings and update this page as needed. Subscribe for free updates on any Zoo cancellation and renewal news.

LOVE this show! It’s different and interesting, and the characters are great! It’s like a mini-movie each week! It needs renewal!
You just can’t leave us hanging. Give it another season & then wrap it up.
CBS don’t you dare to cancel ZOO!!!
OK CBS, here’s the deal. I just finished watching the season finale. If you want to cancel it, then fine but you’d better switch it to a limited series and bring it to closure before you bring the curtain down on it. But in no uncertain terms can you just pull the plug and leave it hanging. That would just be so wrong.
Plz renewed zoo season 4 can’t wait to watch it plz thanks
How can they leave this series hanging at the place it ended. Please have compassion on us and do season 4!!!!!
How can they leave it hanging? Because nobody at the network actually cares about the shows they air. To the viewer, a TV show is an engaging story with characters that they care about. To the network, they’re disposable products to be tossed in the trash without a second thought the moment they’re outlived their usefulness. Networks care as much about the shows that they air as you do about the cardboard tube at the center of a toilet paper roll. They also consider shows as interchangeable as light bulbs. If one burns out, just plug another one in. Nobody… Read more »
