All about ratings, renewals, and cancellations.
At the moment, there is definitely a reason for NBC to sing a happy tune. The ratings are in for “The Sound of Music Live,” and the represent one of the best performances that NBC has had in ages on Thursday night. Not only were the numbers massive, but they were tied in the preliminary […]
NBC has clearly decided that they have seen enough of “The Blacklist” to know that it’s not going anywhere for a long, long time. Following the news that the show tied “The Voice” in preliminary figures on Monday for its fall finale, which is the only time this has happened all season long, the network […]
Matt Carter Almost Human, The Blacklist, The Voice
Who would have saw it coming earlier this season that “The Blacklist,” arguably the strongest new series on network TV, would actually end up being just as much a saving grace for NBC as “The Voice”? At this point, it’s pretty clear that they have more of a smash hit here than any of us […]
Matt Carter Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead
“The Walking Dead” is basically a ratings zombie, stumbling through the wilderness and devouring anything in its way. So far this year, it has taken a bite out of “Homeland,” “Boardwalk Empire,” “Revenge,” “The Good Wife,” and even the typically-unstoppable beast known as NFL football. But did it completely destroy all of them for its […]
It was seemingly inevitable that “Glee” was going to take a little bit of a beating courtesy of NFL football, but just be honest here: Who expected the show to fall as much as it did? With the ratings that the music comedy drew for Thanksgiving, we imagine that the executives over at Fox are […]
The biggest thing that we take from the ratings for Tuesday night is that surprisingly, Thanksgiving Week did not really take too big of a toll on some of your favorite shows; though to be fair, many of them were aided by either a lack of competition, or airing some sort of big episode or […]
In today’s edition of “news you saw coming,” A&E has renewed their most-watched scripted show in “Longmire” for another season. What we are a little more curious about is why in the world it took them this long. Were they too busy watching “Duck Dynasty” repeats? This seemed to be a no-brainer, but the show […]
Matt Carter AMAs, Family Guy, The Amazing Race, The Good Wife
It was hard to be a new television program by and large on Sunday night, especially one that aired at 9:00 p.m. Eastern time. Let’s just try to paint the situation for you here: The American Music Awards were on the air, as was a high-rated NFL game between the Denver Broncos and New England […]
When you are on Friday night, there has to be a certain adjustment of expectations that comes with it. Therefore, you cannot really expect that a show like “Bones” is going to draw a 3.0 rating in the 18-49 demographic and be a massive hit. However, we don’t necessarily think that it is that far […]
Matt Carter Witches of East End
Lifetime may have canceled “The Client List” and “Army Wives” recently, but they are making it clear that when it comes to some of their new series, they are giving them as much of a full endorsement as they possibly can. It’s for this reason that the cable network has decided today that “Witches of […]
