Apparently they are. Must be because of all the Jingoism.

I have always wondered how cable shows are dealt with then it comes to syndication as not many reach the typical 88 milestone for it be sold.

I did wonder if the low episode count would be because of it being the final season, either that or Louie only has enough time to do 7 episodes in his schedule. I hear he is very much in demand. I think he has promising movie career ahead of him. One of the few american blokes who is actually funny and is a terrific writer.

Syndication can happen with not many episodes produced, it's just a show gets more interest when it has more. Usually though, they prefer to do it once there is a 4th season.

I think Dracula got a straight to series order because its was an international co-production. The Michael J Fox Show was a straight to series order because they were so confident it would be a success with Michael J Fox as the lead, it also secured them Michael J Fox himself, which may have been more difficult if they were initially only offering a pilot. Not sure about Crossbones.

So there is usually some reason behind it other than assuming it will be a success, but I do admit it seems a bit of a jinxed model.

As I predicted a one season show. Too much personal stuff and not enough 'Cases of the week'.

Very good news. One of my fave shows of the new shows.

Hope it doesn't mean they string things out though.

The ratings must be good.
I think it's getting around 4 million viewers in America, I must be one of the few that actually likes it, I only really watch that and Gang Related which I'm hoping gets another Season, not looking likely but I think it deserves it.

Lifetime are taking a while to announce Devious Maids's future. Looking at the ratings, i am sure a season 3 is a go.

Hopefully there will be more cameos from the original cast members. I'm still a little sad that Eric is going to be in S1.

Great news. I can't imagine they've even finished filming Season 4 yet.
