All about ratings, renewals, and cancellations.
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 […]
Matt Carter Reign, The Vampire Diaries
How is this for a sign of a new-found ratings momentum? For the first time with lineups featuring all-new, regularly-scheduled programming, The CW has actually beaten NBC in the 18-49 demographic in the two hours that it was on the air. That is great news for a network that has been at times a laughingstock […]
The big question going into Tuesday night, at least from a ratings perspective, was just if we were going to see “Agents of SHIELD” actually have one of its first ratings increases in quite a long time with an hour that hoped to try to answer a very important question: Will spinning off a Marvel […]
Out of all of the cancellation stories out there, this one really makes us pretty sad. After three seasons on the air, USA had made the move to not renew “Necessary Roughness” for a fourth season, meaning that the Callie Throne sports drama will end its journey in what feels like at the 40-yard line […]
