All about ratings, renewals, and cancellations.
As we get near the network upfronts, we are going to start taking a closer look at some of the shows that are currently up in the air in regards to their future. With that in mind, it only seems appropriate that we start off the feature with a show that seems to perpetually be […]
When it comes to viewers, it appears that Josh Brolin and Gotye simply cannot bring in the same sort of numbers as Sofia Vergara and One Direction — though it’s possible that you could formulate a number of other theories for the drop in ratings for “Saturday Night Live” this weekend (such as weather, Joss […]
When you have stars such as Sofia Vergara and One Direction on your program, there has to be a part of your brain that is subconsciously hoping to see the ratings jump up. Unfortunately, “Saturday Night Live” really were met with a case of “good news, bad news” when the final numbers for their show […]
When Fox decided to put together a two-hour comedy block on Tuesday with “Glee” on hiatus, we have a feeling they didn’t expect it to go this badly.

When you are a diehard fan of a low-rated show, you constantly try to think of some reasons why it could still be renewed despite the low numbers there. We’ve ultimately heard every excuse in the book, from a poor timeslot to a bad lead-in to the show being popular on Twitter or with a […]
It seemed that when it comes to “Community,” having the show off of the air for a number of many months worked — at least when it comes to the ratings and building up fan support. On Thursday night, the show drew a season-high 2.2 rating in the 18-49 demographic along with almost 4.9 million […]
Are you people getting tired of “The Bachelor” as a show … or are they just tired of this “Bachelor” in particular?
