Bell Media has not yet confirmed whether the Space original series will be renewed for a second season.

Friday night’s season one finale of Killjoys drew 341,000 (2+) viewers to Space, according to preliminary overnight Numeris data provided by Bell Media.

The season one finale, which aired at 9 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 21, was also the top entertainment specialty program of the day. The episode also made Space the top specialty network in its timeslot for 2+ and the 25-54 and 18-49 demos.

Killjoys debuted in June to an overnight audience of 286,000 audience (2+) and has since continued to post strong ratings throughout its first season.

The show has been credited with boosting Space’s Friday night ratings through the summer, bringing in a series high 526,000 viewers for its sixth episode, which aired July 24.

Killjoys and Space’s other Friday night hit, Dark Matter, took the top two spots in overall entertainment specialty for the month of July with audiences in the 25-to-54 demo, according to Numeris data from Bell Media.

As of press time, Bell Media had not yet confirmed whether it will be renewing the series for a second season.
