All about ratings, renewals, and cancellations.
Matt Carter Chicago Fire, MasterChef
The ratings are in for Wednesday, and overall the best way to describe it is as varying degrees of “meh.” Despite there being some season finales on the schedule, not all of the shows decided to really take advantage of the opportunity at all. There are a few major offenders here, beginning with the biggest […]
In looking at the ratings for “Bates Motel,” the people over at A&E have to be rather thrilled right about now. This is a network known mostly these days for “Duck Dynasty” all around the clock, and their two prominent scripted shows in “The Glades” and “Longmire” both air during the summer. This “Psycho” prequel-of-sorts […]
Matt Carter Saturday Night Live
And now, we present a history lesson to all of you out there bellowing that “Saturday Night Live” is dead and/or dying after so many years. The ratings are in for the season finale featuring host Ben Affleck, and they proved that at the end of the day, not much has really changed at all […]
It’s pretty easy to figure out right now why the BBC is so interested in continually ordering more “Doctor Who” episodes. Not only is the series an international phenomenon and inspiration for many a cosplayer, but it also plays extremely well to audiences in its home country. For more on that, we turn to the […]
Matt Carter Britain's Got Talent
While “Britain’s Got Talent” may have had quite the TV moment on Saturday night thanks to Aliki Chrysochou’s memorable audition (which you can see in full below), this was enough to keep some of steam against what is one of the craziest televised events out there: Eurovision. It’s hard to really think of another thing […]
Even though the future for “Nikita” may now more or less be set in stone, there also still has to be a contingent of people out there who still wants to see the CW drama end on some sort of positive note in the ratings. This is a show, after all, whose struggles are pretty […]
Let’s dive in quickly here to some pretty interesting “Game of Thrones” controversy that is starting to crop up around the internet. Is the show becoming boring? While we know that this is a question that is worthy of a Ned Stark-style beheading to some, it is a criticism that we have seen pick up […]
Matt Carter Britain's Got Talent
Another week passes on “Britain’s Got Talent, and Simon Cowell has managed to find himself yet another reason the smile. Why? Thanks to what we think is the strength of the judging panel, who seems to realize that this is a potential for fun rather than pettiness (which puts it above some other reality shows currently […]
On the day in which NBC announced their entire fall schedule, there were still a few mysteries lingering out there. What would the fate be of “Fashion Star,” “Hannibal,” and “The Celebrity Apprentice“? The first one is a bona fide cancellation, mostly because we feel like some guy’s one-man show in a seedy piano bar […]
Put yourself in a time machine for a minute, and travel back all the way to September. The new season is starting, there’s hope, smiles, and promise, and it really feels like we’re going places. We like to imagine this is how the network programming heads start up their morning while drinking their coffee in […]
