Proof


Status: Cancelled
Aired: 2015, 1 Season Totaling 10 Episodes
Network: TNT
Starring: Jennifer Beals, Matthew Modine, Joe Morton
Series Website: www.tntdrama.com/shows/proof.html

Description: Jennifer Beals plays Dr. Carolyn Tyler, who has suffered the recent, devastating loss of her teenage son, the breakup of her marriage and a growing estrangement from her daughter. Carolyn is persuaded by Ivan Turing (Modine), a cancer-stricken tech inventor and billionaire to investigate cases of reincarnation, near-death experiences, hauntings and other phenomena, all of it in the search for evidence that death is not the end.  TNTDrama

Why Was It Cancelled: Though the series debuted with decent numbers and even made it into the cable Top 25 for that week based on total viewers, it then slipped into what I refer to as the “ratings noise” levels (0.1 to 0.4 scores based on the overnights for the 18-49 demographic).  Other shows from Summer 2015 managed to get renewed at similar or lower levels like ABC Family’s Stitchers, MTV’s Scream, and Syfy’s Dark Matter, but they had international financing/partnerships and/or other intangible factors in their favor.  And apparently TNT did not feel strong enough about Proof to let it prove itself for a second season.
