Fox at Midseason: What Will Get Renewed?

at .  Updated at .

Fox has dropped a lot in recent years, but they still have the advantage of having the number 1 broadcast drama. 

They recently stated that they will no longer be taking Live ratings into consideration, but is this just some PR spin, or will this ring true?

We have no clue and it will surely be answered when their renewals are announced. 

Have a look at the slideshow below with all the analysis!

1. Empire

Empire has drip dropped in Season 2, but not by much. Current averages at a 4.77 rating and 12.28 million viewers meaning it has dropped 7% from Season 1. Over on the DVR, the show is racking up solid increases of 50%. Add in the fact that Fox is actively looking at ways to further extend the brand and you have an easy decision. Renewed.

2. The Simpsons

This comedy has been on the air for over 25 years and still pulling in respectable ratings. Season 27 is down just 5% to average a 2.04 rating and 4.71 million viewers. The show is already renewed!

3. Rosewood

This show is a surprise success. Season 1 is averaging a 1.62 rating and 5.45 million viewers. The show is good for a sophomore run, but the lack of gains with DVR mean this show only really has decent live ratings.

4. Brooklyn Nine-Nine

This show is down just over 10% in Season 4 and is averaging a 1.54 rating and 3.35 million viewers. The show is moving to Tuesdays come January to help improve the night. This shows that Fox has faith in the show. It's adding 50% on the DVR and will be around for Season 4.

5. Family Guy

This hilarious comedy has shed almost 30% in Season 14. It's currently averaging a 1.53 rating and 3.20 million viewers. The numbers swell 50% with DVR and that puts the show in the certain to be renewed group.

6. Gotham

This superhero drama is down 30%, but still pulling in respectable numbers. Season 2 is averaging a 1.51 rating and 4.51 million viewers. The show is almost doubling the audience over on the DVR. Likely to be renewed!

7. The Last Man on Earth

This Sunday comedy is currently down 22% in Season 2. Currently, it's averaging a 1.27 rating and 3.01 million viewers. The numbers swell considerably with DVR. It will be renewed.

8. Bones

This aging procedural is down just 4% this season to a 1.19 rating and 5.78 millon viewers. It's adding 80% on DVR, but considering many people from the show are suing Fox, a renewal is 50/50 at best.

9. Scream Queens

This was the freshman show we all expected to be the biggest hit, but it started OK and dropped to terrible numbers. Season 1 averaged a 1.10 rating and 2.79 million viewers. DVR ratings have been crazy high and the show regularly doubles the live ratings. It could clinch a renewal if Fox are genuine about ditching Live ratings. Add in the fact that every network wants to be in business with Ryan Murphy, we could have a renewal. This show is very much on the bubble.

10. Bob's Burgers

This comedy series is averaging a 1.12 rating and 2.44 million viewers, but rest assured, it's already renewed for next season!

11. Grandfathered

This freshman has been averaging a 1.04 rating and 3.42 million total viewers. It doesn't have the large cast that Scream Queens does, so the budget is way lower and it's doing about the same ratings. DVR ratings are decent. To the bubble!

12. Sleepy Hollow

Season 3 has dropped a massive 40% to a 0.92 rating and 3.25 million total viewers. It's getting a 75% lift in DVR, but add in the fact that the show has dropped lots every season and it's Friday bound. Cancelled.

13. The Grinder

Season 1 is averaging a 0.91 rating and 2.85 million viewers. There's no DVR love for this one and there's no awards love to keep it on the air. It's toast.

14. Minority Report

Terrible ratings and the fact that the episode order was cut, means this show is done. 0.72 rating and just 2.08 million viewers.
