Great news. I can't imagine they've even finished filming Season 4 yet.
Filmed and broadcast most of it. Only two episodes left to air in the US

Don't forget that is a mid season final, there are another 6 episodes later on for the rest of season 4.

Good news about 'The Leftovers' although I hope they don't focus on the Police Chief too much next season.

A renewal was certain as the forthcoming season is the 4th which gives Warner and CBS enough episodes for syndication. Provided ratings hold up it should now continue until the 7th season as these are bonus money to the studios. That is then the crunch as it's when the cast contracts are up for renewal and they usually ask for big money to continue.

AMC don't play the ratings game, but if it doesn't do well at the Emmys and struggles during it's second season, it's probably gone...

I see it isn't looking too good for Graceland... it was on the edge last year and this year its ratings are lower. Shame, i like that show (although i haven't seen any of series 2 yet because it hasn't, to my knowledge, aired on Universal in the UK yet).

AMC generally don't care about ratings too much as long as a show is critically acclaimed and winning Emmys. They tend to finance any money they lose on the shows from monster hit The Walking Dead, which has led to friction in the past, when they cut TWD's budget enormously for S2, it pissed off creator Frank Darabont massively, he was later fired for (according to AMC) producing a few weeks of unusable material, there's a debate as to whether that was actually the case...

In some way i do not agree with AMC on that. Critical acclaim and emmys are really not all that. It's nice to have them, but it's the ratings that do matter. It's the ratings that earn a network money.

Apart from Suits, a lot of that networks shows are ratings no worse than what Graceland is. I think it's future is very much up in arms at the moment. All depends what USA chose to get rid of and what they keep. As long as they keep Covert affairs, i am not bothered.

AMC is playing the reputation game. It looks to me like their plan is to become the HBO of basic cable, somewhere people will automatically give any show a shot, because most of the time it's very high quality. Financially, it's an incredibly risky strategy, and it has already backfired on AMC, when auteur Mad Men showrunner Matt Weiner start demanding insane amounts of money (reportedly he was being paid nearly $10m per season during later seasons), in addition to a fairly big per episode budget

Matt Weiner's demands are supposedly behind AMC slashing The Walking Dead's budget (AMC claims $250,000 was cut, The Hollywood Reporter says $650,000 but does also report an AMC insider saying it's number is inflated), AMC pocketing tax credits from TWD, potentially these budget cuts led to Frank Darabont being fired, and the inflated cost of Mad Men led to AMC trying to negotiate a smaller episode number for Breaking Bad, which pissed Sony off and led to them trying to sell the show to another network.

For reference, the reason TWD got screwed hardest by AMC, is because it's the only show they own and have any control over. Mad Men and Breaking Bad are owned by other companies (Lionsgate and Sony respectively) who can and will sell to another network if they don't get what they want. AMC have solved this problem though, by simply commissioning more shows from themselves (when Mad Men ends, only Hell on Wheels and Better Call Saul will be owned by other studios).

I love Graceland and I hope it is renewed.

Season 2 starts on Universal at the beginning of September (1st, I think)
