Cancel (Confident). Maybe it'll get a full season pickup, but by the end of the season I can't see it looking renew-worthy.

Doesn't look like it has a chance to make it to 88, which for CBS likely means they don't get it past 22. Cancel (Confident). Not very confident, though!

Cancel (confident). I don't see CBS renewing all of their marginal 10 PM dramas and this one is clearly the most disadvantaged, being a first-year show.

Cancel (confident). I have to say though that I am starting to believe going confident against Madam Secretary. Maybe yesterday's numbers change this for me again, but I thought last week's uptick was decent enough for a third week and I honestly am not sure how could CBS have expected much better. In Stalker's case though, I think they clearly should have expected much better considering the lead-in and the competition that set up the show so well.

I agree with roare93, with all 10 PM dramas being at roughly same (pretty low) level, rookie with no syndication income is clearly one that will be axed. Moreover, I'm 99% sure Stalker won't get back 9 order. Some other year, maybe. But given Scorpion and NCIS: New Orleans are clearly outrating it, plus CBS having 3 dramas on the bench (and Undercover Boss too), chances for back 9 are almost zilch.

Cancel (confident) It's just too disappointing in a high-profile spot.

CSI probably would have pulled similar numbers to Stalker. That's a bad thing for the newbie since CBS was looking for time period improvement. And not being from the sister company CBS Studios means there's no upside to ordering a backend, let alone 3 more seasons.

I'd imagine CBS is disapointed in Stalker's performance given how weak the competition is in the timeslot.
