All about ratings, renewals, and cancellations.

Now, we present to you the latest example of ratings being relative when it comes to networks. While NBC was certainly hoping for “The Michael J. Fox Show” to get off to a big start, the series was still the top-rated comedy with just over a 2.0 rating in the 18-49 demographic. Meanwhile, CBS’ new […]

Showtime may not be able to throw themselves a victory parade with the latest ratings announcement that has come in, but they also have no reason to be upset with the performance of either of their fall shows when you consider the competition. First, consider “Homeland.” This is a premiere that not only aired against […]
The ratings for the “Breaking Bad” series finale are in, and it’s fair to say that these are almost as massive as you would have figured. Overall, what we are looking at here is a massive viewership of 10.3 million, including around a 5.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic. The only scripted series to top […]
For those of you who love tattoos, you are going to love this news: After once again drawing strong ratings and a loyal fan following, Spike TV has renewed both “Ink Master” and “Tattoo Nightmares” for another season, which will debut at some point in 2014. While the tattoo competition show will have another batch […]
We’re going to go ahead and start this ratings piece by talking about the “Breaking Bad” series finale. Almost anyone who watched the AMC show watched live, mostly because they were afraid that someone on Twitter would troll them and spoil all of the fun. The ratings for it will be out later, but the […]
There are two games that we love to play when it comes to the fall season and the lineup of shows: Trying to figure out what is going to be the first series picked up for a full season, and then also trying to figure out what show is going to be the first one […]

When you look at TV, you have to remember that there is a certain level of relativity to take into account. For example, a 1.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic for one network may be bad while a 1.6 for another may be good. This is the center-point of our story today, as we talk […]
Let’s be honest here: Who saw a renewal for “Unforgettable” coming? This was a show that was saved at the 11th hour by CBS for a second season to air in the summer of this year, and the ratings were not exactly phenomenal after “Big Brother.” The only thing that the show had going for […]
While we’ve touted most of the ratings this week as a win for several of the networks, we think that the lineup on Thursday ended up being a little bit more of a mixed bag. While there were good stories to tell for CBS, ABC, NBC, and Fox, they all felt a little bit of […]
Fox is obviously hungry for a little more of “Bob’s Burgers.” The network announced today that they are going to be renewing the animated comedy for another 22 episodes to air during the 2014-15 season, but the twist here is that they are doing so before the fourth season even premieres on Sunday. Is that […]
