Did ‘Mistresses’ improve season 4 renewal odds with finale ratings?
Anyway, the “Mistresses” episode “Gone Girl” was seemingly hurt by not coming on in many markets, as it posted only a series-low 0.6 rating in the 18-49 demographic Thursday night. That does next to nothing to help its chances of a renewal, which were probably not enormous to begin with.
Does the show have a devoted following? Sure, but just like “Hannibal,” that does not matter too much when you’re not getting enough people to watch on a weekly basis. The show already made a cost-cutting move in heading to Vancouver, and they may even be saving some money not having Alyssa Milano in the cast anymore. Still, none of this may be enough to make a season 4 worthwhile.
If there is a reason to have hope for “Mistresses” still moving forward, we’d say this: It’s not like ABC is having a banner summer. Other than editions of the “Bachelor” franchise, the majority of their programming has simply not done all that well. “The Astronaut Wives Club” was a disappointment, “Rookie Blue” is also more than likely done, and “The Whispers” is in the same boat.

Please return, with Joss beating Wilson, puts him in jail, and bail out Callista (seemingly alive) and they reconcile and Joss’s relationship with Harry!
