All about ratings, renewals, and cancellations.
When ABC first announced that they were creating a companion show of sorts to “Once Upon a Time” in “Once Upon a Time” in Wonderland,” we were thoroughly excited (especially since we are huge Alice fans). This was an opportunity for the show to try and tell a story that was separate from what was […]
The American version of “The X Factor” is, at this point, something a little bit closer to a tragedy than a celebration. This is a show that came on the air tooting its own horn and promising 20 million viewers, and it forgot along the way that it needed to make a good show instead […]
How’s this for a surprise? Rather than sending a storm of angry people into the night following the series’ most controversial episode ever, “Homeland” somehow managed on Sunday night to actually increase its audience. Therefore, stop wondering whether or not people are giving up on the series; if nothing else, the (spoiler alert!) drama of […]
A few weeks ago, we were more than concerned about the downward direction that a certain series in “2 Broke Girls” was taking on CBS. This was a comedy that at one point, appeared to be destined to be the heir apparent to “Everybody Loves Raymond” and “Two and a Half Men” as the standout […]
You knew that “The Walking Dead” was going to be renewed for a fifth season; the only real question was whether or not the show was going to actually give a showrunner two straight years of job security for the first time ever.

Even when its numbers are not as phenomenal as they are for some other shows, we still get a certain amount of joy and entertainment out of checking out the ratings performance of “The Walking Dead” on AMC. After all, this is a show that is an unstoppable force, and while not everyone may love […]
Cinemax has only lately really started to get their toes wet with mainstream original programming, but they are now also getting ready to send one of their originals off to pasture. In a statement today, the network confirmed that there will be a season 4 of “Strike Back” comprised of ten new episodes, but it […]
Even though “House of Cards” season 2 is still in production, and there is not even a premiere date for it yet, the folks over at Netflix are still doing what they can to plan ahead and figure out what they want to see happen when it comes to the future of one of their […]

For the first time in quite a while, NBC learned on Friday that they don’t have to have either “The Voice” or NFL football on their schedule in order for their night as a whole to be a win. The network was hoping for something solid out of their Friday-night lineup, and they more or […]
At the moment, “Drop Dead Diva” has to be one of the feel-good stories of the year. At one point, this show was dead in the water with no hope of coming back at all. Then, Fox un-canceled it at the last minute, and allowed a season 5 to happen. That season, while polarizing with […]
