The network it airs on is brand new and they have openly said that ratings do not bother them. Which in some way i don't agree with as poor ratings lead to a loss in money for the channel.
But ‘El Rey’ is a basic cable channel that relies on advertising revenue as its funding. Therefore I’d agree with you, despite what they say, ratings will be important. I suspect their comment saying they aren’t important is due to the fact they are targeting a very niche audience, second and third-generation Latinos. They will be selling advertising space based on this audience so can charge more for it, so it won’t matter if the overall numbers are low as long as they are Latinos. But of course, if even low numbers of Latinos are watching then it’ll be a financial nightmare for the network. |

MTV have re-newed Catfish for a 4th season. Not really surprising as it’s still one of MTV’s most popular programmes, despite the fact that it’s ratings have started to drop slightly over the past 3 seasons. But it must be really cheap to make so that probably helped their decision to re-new, having said that I think most of MTVs original productions are probably quite cheap to make!

Actually the longer a show keeps getting renewed, the more expensive it becomes. Especially as cast members or in Catfish's case, the hosts, will want a pay raise each season.

Starz big new production Outlander (adaptation of the book series) still has no UK pickup to my knowledge. Rather surprising considering how big a fanbase it would have due to the books.
Anyone have any news about it being picked up? It's airing in the US on 9th August. |

I'm not sure the books are that popular, I think like a lot of things it's vaguely popular in the US, so everyone just assumes people have heard of it. (Hunger Games and Divergent were recent examples of those.) I guess they'd also change the name, as the book was published as Cross Stitch in the UK...

20 million books sold, and translated into 24 different languages. That's more than "vaguely popular in the US."

Although I agree with previous poster about the bad name change, Cross Stitch was much better.
Considering that the author has had a tough fight as it is in convincing people that her books are not "romance" novels that only women would be interested in, the more masculine and adventurous title of Outlander is preferable to Cross Stitch.

I have to wonder if Louie only getting seven episodes means he's going to bring it to an end ?

The last I heard was that this was facing some pre-production difficulties... I’m beginning to wonder if it’ll actually materialise.

The acting is excrable, and the storylines are ridiculous, and it gets renewed?. The ratings must be good. |
