What’s This TV Show About?
A game show airing on the NBC television network, The Wall TV series is hosted by Chris Hardwick. The competition series follows pairs of players as they pursue a cash prize of up to $12 million. When a team answers a trivia question correctly, a green ball drops from the top of the grid-like wall and bounces randomly toward the bottom of the four-stories high structure. At the bottom of the wall, the ball will land in one of many slots, each with a value of $1 to $1 million. That value is added to the team’s total winnings. If the team misses a question, a red ball descends toward a random slot. The resulting amount is then deducted from the team’s total. In this game, players need both the answers and lucky bounces, to win a big cash prize.
Season Five Ratings
The first half of the fifth season of The Wall (which aired during the 2022-23 season) averaged a 0.29 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.18 million viewers. Compared to season four, that’s down by 35% in the demo and down by 15% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM).
The second half of the fifth season of The Wall (which airs during the 2023-24 season) averages a 0.26 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.34 million viewers. Compared to season four, that’s down by 42% in the demo and down by 9% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (including 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 Wall stacks up against other NBC TV shows.

Telly’s Take
Will NBC cancel or renew The Wall for season six? The show’s a good filler for the network schedule, but I sense it’s getting a little long in the tooth. What’s more, there was more than a year gap between seasons. I suspect that this will be the final season. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.
