E4 would be mad not to, at this stage I would expect them to be on "for life" contracts with C4.
what madness, that would only make the sitution worse. As for the C4 purchases, ill be keeping an eye on how the shows go in the US, but I could see myself watching Allen Gregory, I enjoyed the trailor for it that I saw. The show im must looking forward to is NBCs "Awake", and if im feeling a need for girls in air hostess uniforms, Pan Am may well tempt me. Awake seems interesting but can it sustain a series. It would make a decent film plot and perhaps work as a mini-series, but as a returnable series I'm not so sure. |

This is what I dont get, people who seemingly care about what the papers write. People have mistrusted the papers, especially the tabloids, for years and with the ongoing scandals, their reputation has never been lower. As you say, people will watch what they like.
So many people on this thread got annoyed at the paper that criticised Corrie's ratings. Why get so bothered? Its not like everyone will suddenly stop watching. If anything the added publicity may have boosted Corrie with viewers tunung in to see if the quality was as bad as the paper was making out. |

Charlie Sheen's latest project is a TV series based loosely on the Adam Sandler movie Anger Management. Sounds interesting. No network confirmed yet.

Pan Am seems the best replacement out there for Desperate Housewives, which it's time C4 relegated to E4 or More4. The quality also shines through in the promo compared to some other stuff out there.
Awake seems interesting but can it sustain a series. It would make a decent film plot and perhaps work as a mini-series, but as a returnable series I'm not so sure. You are also right about Awake, its a good idea, but will being 22 episodes hurt it. Its actually midseason, so that might help it. |

It doesn't really bother me what the papers write as I am aware of the truth (when it comes to ratings, that is). What I said was just an observation of how I'm sure BB's ratings will be spun by parts of the media, even if they're good. As Grenade says, that probably won't have an impact on the viewers watching the show who enjoy it, but I'm sure C5/Endemol would prefer there to be positive word of mouth for the series rather than negative. Even though it doesn't bother me, I can however understand why fans get annoyed if various newspapers are printing incorrect stories about one of their favourite shows. Obviously it doesn't mean people are suddenly going to stop watching, and I'm sure the majority of fans are aware of that, but you wouldn't be thrilled would you if newspapers were making up false stories up about your favourite TV show or football team or whatever you enjoy a lot? Being annoyed by such stories is just a natural reaction.

Is 1.12m as expected/higher/lower than what people thought The Amazing Race would get?
I loved the American version a few years back, but have gone off it recently. |

Yikes, only 2.6m for Show Me The Funny (excl +1)!
![]() I knew it wouldn't do well but I wasn't expecting it to launch so low. When was the last time ITV was below 3m in that slot? Several years ago I suspect. What a terrible Summer for ITV's entertainment department - surely heads will roll... |

I reckon Show Me The Funny probably started alright and then lost audience throughout the hour. It kind of picked up towards the end but the first 20-30 minutes was absolutely dire. I think they got it wrong focussing too much on the location, I'd have liked to have seen more of the standup routines. (as toe-curlingly awful as a few of them were)
Before seeing it I was thinking mid 3's for it, but then having watched it I guessed 2.8 so not too far off what it got last night. I could see Jason Manford returning to 8 Out of 10 Cats very soon.

Not surprised by Show Me The Funny at all- up against tough competition in Summer in a slot not known for entertainment. Also the fact The Marriage Ref, Odd One In, Born To Shine have all flopped aswell as Popstar To Operastar and Penn & Teller underperforming.
What does surprise me though is how high New Tricks is! 8.7m in a Summer slot is fantastic! |

Absolutely superb for New Tricks. What a powerhouse!
Channel 5 held up well last night with Police Interceptors improving to 1.3m/5.6% and Bad Boys pulling in a healthy 1.35m/6.8%, thrashing Sirens which slumped further to 0.96m/5.4% for C4. |

So why was New Tricks so low last weeks by its own standards, I know 7.6m is good by any other show but the other 2 ep were 8.3m and 8.7m overnight.

I guess it will fluctuate a bit depending on its competition but it's always going to be a high rating show, no doubt about that. |

Holy shiza!! New Tricks is on fire at the moment!!
Brilliant for the soaps compared to lately, and wow for Hollyoaks, that is one of the highest ratings on just C4 alone I remember, surely the highest of the year? |
