All about ratings, renewals, and cancellations.
Matt Carter 24: Legacy, The Bachelor, Timeless
For everyone out there hoping to see “Timeless” renewed by NBC for another season, you do have one thing to celebrate in a major way on Tuesday: The ratings performance of the show’s finale! Monday’s episode “The Red Scare” ended up generating in total a 0.9 rating in the 18-49 demographic, the show’s best rating […]
Matt Carter NCIS: Los Angeles, The Good Fight
There isn’t much in the way of newsworthy discussion points from Sunday night’s television lineup, so we’re going to spend the majority of our time here discussing things in the context of “The Good Fight,” the ambitious new CBS All Access series that had a chance to premiere on the network proper last night. How […]
Earlier this month, there was some news announced by Fox that you were going to see more of “Lucifer” coming on the air — specifically, we mean that in the terms of a third season! New episodes of the series starring Tom Ellis will premiere presumably in the fall, and that is after we get […]
Matt Carter Nashville, Shadowhunters, Suits
For this week’s edition of Cable Ratings, let’s chronicle a trio of different shows we’re watching closely — two in terms of their future beyond this season, and then one more in terms of whether or not it could have a live on the other side of the season to come. (Before you proceed, you’ve […]
Matt Carter Hawaii Five-0, MacGyver, Sleepy Hollow
For the sake of this Friday ratings piece, we’re focusing yet again on shows that haven’t been officially renewed yet for another season, and how there could be some really key decisions for some networks to make come May. Will CBS keep their long-running lineup intact, and will NBC make a move for “Emerald City” […]
Matt Carter Chicago Med, Supernatural, The Blacklist
You see those three shows in the title? That’s what we are focusing our ratings piece on today given that all of #TGIT is already renewed, “The Big Bang Theory” is surely coming back, and we’re already assuming that “Training Day” is dead on arrival. Let’s start with “Supernatural” – Yes, the show’s officially coming […]
Matt Carter Criminal Minds, Doubt, Lethal Weapon
The ratings for Wednesday night’s primetime lineup are in, and in this highlights article, there are a couple of important points that we want to emphasize … beginning with something that looks incredibly hopeful for the future of Fox’s “Lethal Weapon.” Per the latest numbers, last night’s big episode — which featured the debut of […]
For most of “The Walking Dead” season 7A, there was one trend in which many viewers were commenting on — and it was a downward one. The show was in the midst of one of its biggest ratings ruts since the start of the series, and there were many different factors that it could be […]
Matt Carter 24: Legacy, APB, Supergirl, Timeless
Consider “24: Legacy” now to be the new poster child for the Super Bowl hangover. For years now, we’ve seen the tradition of shows airing after the big game getting little to no benefit from doing so; this game is just the latest example of that now. Monday’s new episode drew just a 1.2 rating […]
Matt Carter Saturday Night Live
How do you guarantee that “Saturday Night Live” gets great ratings? It’s simple: By promising beforehand that Alec Baldwin will be on the show. Last week’s new episode, which featured the former “30 Rock” star (and his impersonation of Donald Trump), drew the show’s largest 18-49 rating since November with a 3.6 rating. This is […]
