What’s This TV Show About?

A historical drama series airing on The CW television network, The Chosen TV show stars Jonathan Roumie, Shahar Isaac, Elizabeth Tabish, Paras Patel, Noah James, Shaan Sharma, Nick Shakoour, George H. Xanthis, Abe Bueno-Jallad, Brandon Potter, Kirk B. R. Woller, Giavani Cairo, Jordan Walker Ross, Joey Vahedi, Yasmine Al-Bustami, Vanessa Benavente, Yoshi Barrigas, Austin Reed Alleman, and Alaa Safi. Primarily set in Judaea and Galilee in the first century, the series centers on the life and ministry of Jesus of Nazareth (Roumie) as seen through the eyes of his followers. The story begins as Jesus starts to build a group for his ministry. He invites several people from different backgrounds. As he performs his early miracles, Jesus calls redeemed woman Mary Magdalene and several men to follow him. In season three, Jesus completes a sermon that turns the world upside down. All 12 disciples are ready to follow Him to the ends of the Earth, but problems remain.
 

Season Three Ratings

The third season of The Chosen averages a 0.04 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 517,000 viewers. Compared to season two, that’s up by 12% in the demo and up by 19% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (includes DVR playback through 3:00 AM). While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled. Find out how The Chosen stacks up against other The CW TV shows.
 

Telly’s Take

Will The CW cancel or renew The Chosen for season four? The network licenses the episodes, so it’s more cost-effective to air them. In addition, The Chosen has been one of The CW’s higher-rated scripted shows, so I have no doubt that the network will pick up season four. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.
