Carol’s Second Act Canceled After One Season

Carol’s Second Act won't have a second season, as CBS canceled the series today. It was the network's lowest-rated comedy this season, despite being one of the higher-rated new shows this season across broadcast. It was the lowest-rated of any sitcom to air on Thursdays this season, averaging a half tenth below the next lowest-rated entry, Broke. Patricia Heaton, Kyle MacLachlan, Lucas Neff, Jean-Luc Bilodeau, Ito Aghayere, Ashley Tisdale, Sabrina Jalees and Cedric Yarborough starred in the series, which ran for eighteen episodes. The series finale aired on March 12. This is a correct prediction for The TV Ratings Guide.

Broke Canceled by CBS


Broke, the most recent CBS comedy to premiere, has gone for broke. The sitcom has been canceled after a single season. It got off to a surprisingly strong start in the ratings when it debuted in early April, though losing its compatible Mom lead-in helped it slip to a middling 0.6 by week four. Its 0.69 average is still better than what fall comedy Carol's Second Act did in more favorable circumstances, but it presumably wasn't a priority for CBS given its scheduling and didn't stand out enough ratings-wise to warrant a second season. The sitcom stars Pauley Perrette, Jaime Camil, Natasha Leggero, Izzy Diaz, and Anthony Raul Corbo. With just five episodes aired so far, Broke will continue airing through early summer until its makeshift series finale.

Thursday TV Ratings 3/5/20: Grey’s Anatomy Gets a Bump for Major Episode, Young Sheldon Fractional, Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Will & Grace Rise

Last night was a big night for Grey's Anatomy, which bid adieu to original cast member Justin Chambers' character Alex Karev after sixteen seasons. The episode was promoted more than usual and say a significant boost in interest, up two tenths over the previous episode. That wasn't enough to help out lead-out A Million Little Things, which held onto its series low despite that higher lead-in. It also didn't help lead-in Station 19 hold onto its 1.1 from last week's crossover. All three shows remained the leaders in their timeslots this week, with AMLT claiming sole possession of #1 at 10 PM.

CBS sitcoms returned from a week off, mostly steady. The one notable exception was Young Sheldon. Previously the only currently-running broadcast comedy to never dip below 1.0, the show did just that this week. It previously went fractional in preliminary ratings in October before adjusting up to 1.0. At 10, Tommy held onto last week's bounce with its second-straight 0.5

NBC lost its lead-out comedy Superstore and its 10 o'clock drama Law & Order SVU this week, putting them on repeats necessary to stretch their seasons out, but they still saw upticks for two thirds of their original lineup. Brooklyn Nine-Nine and the exiting Will & Grace both recovered a bit from last week's lows, with Nine-Nine now tying The Unicorn to become the #1 comedy in its slot. At 9:30, Indebted dropped to its previous ugly low of 0.3, going from 100% retention to 60% in just a week.

On Fox, leading comedy Last Man Standing took another tumble to 0.6, continuing what has been a middling season for the show in the ratings department. Outmatched stayed steady at an okay 0.5, while Deputy dropped behind it to a 0.5, dropping to 0.4 in one half-hour. On a network as packed as Fox, these numbers aren't great, but these ratings aren't that much different than the rest of the shows on the network.

The CW continued to air their Katy Keene/Legacies (R) lineup to no success whatsoever.

Final numbers to come.
