All about ratings, renewals, and cancellations.
Matt Carter Breaking Bad, Under the Dome
Who knew that “Under the Dome” could be toppled by a family of duck call-makers with epic beards? Apparently, there is a duck inside of that tiny egg on the CBS show, carefully assessing the competition. Despite airing on a cable network in A&E that was not previously known for this sort of smash hit, […]
Matt Carter Perception, Rizzoli & Isles
TNT is not wasting any time at all making sure that fans of its summer series know that they are not going anywhere in the near future. In a statement today, the cable channel announced that “Rizzoli & Isles,” “Major Crimes,” and “Perception” are all going to be back for another season, which will (appropriately) […]
The news that “Devious Maids” is coming back for a second season on Lifetime is hardly much of a surprise at all. However, what we are a bit more surprised about now is why in the world it took this long to actually become official. This was really one of the best things that the […]
Over the past few years, ABC has tried very hard to set a certain standard as to why “The Bachelor” is a popular show. Is there drama? Definitely, but there’s also a guy at the very center that ladies watching at home would actually want to date. Sean Lowe is just one example of that, […]
We assumed that “Breaking Bad” was going to premiere to some pretty enormous numbers for AMC, but who would have guessed that the series would suddenly surpass “Game of Thrones” and “True Blood,” and surge to suddenly become the second-most-popular show on the network by a pretty wide margin. Heck, the demo rating here was […]
Matt Carter Teen Choice Awards
The Teen Choice Awards remains more or less an enigma when it comes to ratings. For weeks leading up to the show, you hear nothing other than near-constant conversation about how excited everyone is to see the show in action, and how they are voting relentlessly to give their favorite stars surfboard trophies. In the […]
Prior to the stints of David Tennant and Matt Smith as The Doctor, “Doctor Who” was a very niche series in an international crowd; if you enjoyed the show, you were one of a select group, and it was hard to find other fans of the show without crossing over to Europe. However, it’s not […]
The magic is predictably over for “Magic City.” There have been some signs about the show coming to an end over the past month or so, but now the network has confirmed it: The finale for season 2 on Friday night is going to serve as the end of the series. We personally take this […]
While we cannot possibly imagine doing a ratings update on “America’s Next Top Model” over the next several weeks, we did think it valuable to at least show how Tyra Banks’ long-running series fared in its big return to The CW Friday night. This is the first time the show has been on the air […]
While some of you are still mourning the loss of “Bunheads” and “The Lying Game” on ABC Family, fans of a few other shows on the network have something to celebrate today. In a statement, it was confirmed that “The Fosters,” “Twisted,” and “Switched at Birth” are all coming going to be receiving additional episodes. […]
