Maybe they don't want another Beauty and the Beast on their hands?
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I think the reason why BATB was renewed, last year, was because they didn't want to make the "same mistake" they did when they axed The Secret Circle. That show started strong but gradually declined at their season's end. It wasn't disastrous, but they were on a limbo often in the spring. Fans were pissed off when the axing happened. BATB pulled similar numbers on their first season, but I think they were in a danger zone a bit quicker than TSC was. The CW thought they can make up for it, but now, BATB is the worst performing show which is not on Fridays. That's the thing about limbo freshman shows, it's a really big risk for the network. It can either be a grower or can end badly. But I think it's even a bigger risk to renew a show which is on their third season, clearly their ratings are horrible and the only reason they stick around is because of syndication. I am aware that syndication deals mean $$$$, but it's not for every show. If the show's ratings were bad during their first-run airings, what are the chances that they will do well in syndications? It can only work for shows which has a very strong fanbase. If Veronica Mars did one more season, it might have had the potential to do well in syndications. Their ratings weren't out there for their first-run airings, but they have very strong fans. This is evident after their big Kickstarter success. |

Looks like Reign and TTP battle is getting more interesting then. For the first time, TTP beat Reign. I personally don't watch Reign but want TTP to be renewed.
Meanwhile Supernatural wins for CW for the week with Arrow second and TVD/TO third (weird that TVD dropped from top place). |

Superbowl is a one sided hammering coming up to half time, 22-0 Seattle; teams can come back in the second half but the fact it's not close at all presumably damages it's biggest of all time rating potential.

I really enjoy most of CW's shows (scifi/fantasy). I guess though, there's only so many 8/9/10PM slots. And something has to go if they want new stuff the year after.
I'm fine as long as Arrow/Supernatural/Vampire Diaries stick around. I am enjoying Beauty and the Beast/TomorrowPeople, though. Not seen Season 2, but it would suck if they got cancelled, a TTP is waaaay better than people were saying. The Originals is okay, and I can't see it getting cancelled. Connected universes are the new, current upcoming "big thing". If anything, I see there eventually being a 3rd Vampire Diaries universe series, though not until one of them is over. In all honesty, Secret Circle should have been retooled to fit into the Vampire Diaries universe, and the each series should have boosted each others mythos (demons, new magic families, more different supernatural threads tot he guys in SC etc.) As for future shows I want to stick, the only ones that come to mind are The Flash/Supernatural spinoff. Star-Crossed is clearly the channels scifi "love story" replacement for BATB. The 100 looks very interesting, but I see this being a "budget beast" and will crash and burn money-wise. So in essence, I don't think they are intending for The 100 to succeed. I'm watching everything but Supernatural at UK pace, so obviously I haven't seen all their shows. As for the season after this upcoming season. If Flash hits it, then by all means a 3rd DCU series would be great. A Deadman/Quantum leap hybrid would be good. A DCU show with a female lead would probably be optimum for balance. |

Super Bowl XLVIII most watched show in USA TV history- 111.5 million viewers average. Stunning rating considering it was a poor, one sided game.

TVbythenumbers are really convinced Almost human will be cancelled
But i don't think it will. Rake isn't doing amazing. Almost Human's ratings and demos are much higher. Although it doesn't air on a friday, but it's ratings and demos are much better than Dollhouse or Sarah Connor Chronicles. By cancelling Rake, they will have room for it, i thijl. |

How I Met Your Mother has been adjusted up a massive five tenths to 3.8, TVBTN have double checked and it is accurate. I wonder why, apparently there were no pre-emptions or other obvious reasons.
Anyway, I'm glad it's doing so well in its final season. I doubt it can top its series high though which I think is 5.2 (the second part of the Season 7 premiere, the night of Ashton Kutcher's first TAAHM.) |

I wonder why The following has seen such a huge decrease. It was FOX's biggest hit last season.

CBS announce they are showing 8 NFL games on Thursday nights this autumn. "Expect to see some premium matchups"- NFL.com
This is not good news for everything else on Thursdays. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap200...otball-in-2014 |

Observations on the last 3 days...
The Tomorrow People is Dead. Falling from last weeks 0.7 back down to 0.5 .. when it moves to mondays it will be in BATB territory Reign is doing better, despite Vampire Diaries going down, it held its audience from last week. Chicago PD is doing well... it will 100% be back for a second season No superbowl bump whatsoever for New Girl or Brooklyn Nine Nine, in fact they are both down on last Tuesdays ratings. CBS was down last night... NBC thrashes everyone with the Olympics. This week in the Battles: The Tomorrow People 0.5 -v- The Reign 0.6 The Crazy Ones 1.7 -v- Mom 2.4 |

Lol sorry...but I just realised the above 3 dates were wrong, its the 4th, 5th and 6th.
Last night was the 7th, and it was mostly repeats because of the Olympics. FOX Enlisted (0.7) 1.80 Million Viewers FOX Raising Hope (0.6) 1.68 Million Viewers NBC Winter Olympics (8.6) 32.00 Million Viewers Both Raising Hope and Enlisted will be cancelled by may. |

I think the terrible ratings of both Rake and The Following will be the saving grace of Almost Human
The following is doing bad every week. It looks expensive and I bet Kevin Bacon didn't come cheap. Looks like FOX'S biggest hit last season will be in the graveyard come May. |

Ratings from Monday and Tuesday
http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/201...rossed/239884/ Star Crossed is totally a goner. Baffled by the fall from grace over The Following http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/201...-debut/240319/ Ouch for Glee. Awful for ABC's newbie Mind Games |
