What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the USA Network cable channel, The Sinner stars Bill Pullman, Frances Fisher, Alice Kremelberg, Neal Huff, Cindy Cheung, Ronin Wong with Jessica Hecht and Michael Mosley. Season four finds now-retired detective Harry Ambrose (Pullman) Still reeling from the trauma of a previous case a year ago. He travels to Hanover Island in northern Maine for a recuperative getaway with his partner, Sonya (Hecht). When an unexpected tragedy occurs involving the daughter of a prominent island family, Ambrose is recruited to help the investigation, only to be thrown into a mystery of mounting paranoia that will turn this sleepy tourist island, and Ambrose’s life, upside down.
Season Four Ratings
The fourth season of The Sinner averages a 0.09 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 379,000 viewers. Compared to season three, that’s down by 44% in the demo and down by 42% 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.

Telly’s Take
Will USA Network cancel or renew The Sinner for season five? The channel has very few scripted originals so my sense is that, if Pullman wants to continue, the show will be renewed. The big drop in ratings is concerning, however. I’ll update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on The Sinner cancellation or renewal news.
