The ninth episode of “The Brave” saw a significant decrease in its rating and viewers. Its rating decreased 10% to a .9 for the 18-49 demographic. The show’s total number of viewers decreased by 7.3% to 4.659 million viewers. “The Voice,” which is the lead in for “The Brave,” also saw a substantial decrease in its ratings as well. It decreased 12.91% for the 18-49 demographic and saw a decrease of 4.66% in the total number of viewers. However, this decrease could be attributed to the upcoming holiday weekend.
On November 16th, it was reported that the first season for “The Brave” will end with only 13 episodes and will not receive a back-nine order. The show has not yet been completely canceled so there is still potential for a second season. The next episode for “The Brave” will air on January 1st. After the series ends, “Good Girls” will take its time slot. In Cancel Bear vs. NBC, week 8, “The Brave” got downgraded to two cancel bears, meaning that the show is most likely to be canceled by May 2018.
