Summary
NBC has decided not to renew *The Irrational* for a third season due to its declining ratings during the second season. The show's performance took a significant nosedive compared to its first season, making renewal unlikely despite its strong start. This decision was already foreordained weeks ago as NBC prepares to accommodate NBA games in primetime next season. The series, featuring Jesse L. Martin and based on Dan Ariely's work, faced stiff competition from other shows vying for prime time slots.
