After seven episodes aired, reviews on ‘Valor’ seem to describe the show as overdramatic and typically a bit silly. Since last week, the ratings in the key 18-49 demographic only increased from 0.19 to 0.2, finishing with 1 million viewers. Although these numbers are higher than the previous week’s, the numbers remain relatively low.

Because of these ratings, the CW Network has announced it will not be picking up any additional episodes of ‘Valor’ past the already ordered 13. According to Deadline Hollywood, the network announced a full season order for their other new series ‘Dynasty,’ but has officially opted out of additional ‘Valor’ episodes. As far as another season for the military drama, the CW will analyze the SVOD data for the show and use those statistics to determine weather or not to pick up ‘Valor’ for a second season.

Television review sites like “The Tracking Board” argue that Valor’s silly storylines make it difficult to feel sympathy for the characters. However, other critics feel as though the dramatic plot is the key component that keeps the show on brand with the CW Network, which typically airs SOAP-type dramas such as ‘Jane the Virgin.” And because a military show is distinctly different from the typical programming on this specific network, the dramatic characters and storylines are what connect the show to CW fans. However, maybe the plot has proven to be too silly, and ultimately the ratings have led the network to opt-out of additional episode pickups.
