Top reality shows we want back, from The Mole to Hunted to Whodunnit
Check out our take on five different reality shows that we think are worthy of coming back in some shape or form.
Hunted
Emmys 2017: Why Ink Master, Top Chef, Hunted, Survivor deserve Reality Competition nods
What makes a great Reality Competition show? There are so many different components to it — a great concept, solid casting, consisting story editing, and an ending that makes you feel like the story was justified. Even if the “heroes” aren’t the winners, you want to see the trajectory from point A to point B. […]
Elementary season 6, Hunted season 2, Code Black season 3 up in the air
While many shows have their fates set in stone now, CBS still is holding out on Hunted season 2, Code Black season 3, and many others. What gives with the long wait? Well, think of this as the network keeping its cards close to the vest. They are the last network to wait on renewing many of their bubble […]
What WGA strike could mean to Amazing Race, Big Brother, Hunted, and … Beauty and the Geek?
We’re getting ever closer now to a potential WGA strike; if it happens, what could this mean to The Amazing Race and other shows? Think back for a minute all the way to the fall of 2007. This was the last time that a writers’ strike was initiated, and it left networks scrambling to try to find […]
Hunted season 2: Why is CBS waiting on renewal?
Earlier today, CBS renewed the majority of their fall-spring primetime schedule, but there were a few exceptions in the mix. You’ve got a show like Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders that just started to air a few weeks ago, and then another one in The Amazing Race that is going to be premiering in one week’s time. Then, you’ve got […]
How to make Hunted season 2, if renewed, even better (March Makeovers)
While we cannot tell you if Hunted season 2 is something that will happen or not (that’s still floating out there in the ether somewhere), we did feel like discussing the future of the show was a worthy way of kicking off our March Makeovers series — largely because there is a good bit worth changing. Let’s […]
March 1, 2017 ratings: Chicago Justice premiere, One Chicago event huge; Hunted finale even
For the sake of this article, there’s one thing worth discussing above all others: The Chicago Justice premiere ratings. The very first episode of the series generated a 1.7 rating in the 18-49 demographic, further proving that it was incredibly smart to try and launch the show on the strength of a three-part crossover event. This meant […]
When should a Hunted season 2 premiere, provided renewal happens?
Tonight, the first season of Hunted comes to a close, and that leads to other questions … including that of a Hunted season 2 premiere. Over the weekend, we wrote a piece detailing that the odds of a season 2 renewal were high given that the show’s ratings were steady, and there are already casting notices out there. […]
Hunted season 2 casting: Is this good sign for renewal?
Come Wednesday night, is going to air the season 1 finale of Hunted. It’s a chance to see if any of the three teams remaining end up evading the Hunters long enough to win the grand prize, and it’s hopefully a chance for some more surprisingly-compelling drama. We will be honest that Hunted is probably a show we […]
Ratings: ‘Law & Order: SVU’ surges with 400th episode; ‘Blindspot’ stays low; ‘Hunted’ slip
On Wednesday night, “Law & Order: SVU” had a chance to celebrate a milestone in 400 episodes. As expected, the viewers responded for the occasion. With a 1.6 rating in the 18-49 demographic, NBC had its best performance for the show since the season premiere. The same can be said for its total viewer count […]
