First "Modern Family" and "The Middle", and now this! Really great news. Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteOn a side note, I can't keep track of all the comedies I love. There seem to be way too many!
This is fantastic and unexpected news. Somehow despite the ratings this show has survived and its definitely a sign that Fox have faith in it.
ReplyDeleteYes. So happy about that...
ReplyDeleteYeah ! I guess 20th Century Fox producing and the prospects of syndication with season 4 have helped, but I like to think that it's also rewarding the quality of the show : any comedy where an old woman takes a bunch of cats in hostage is okay by me.
ReplyDeleteBut the ratings of the show weren't bad either on the demo that matters : 1.7 - 1.8 - 1.7 for episodes 3.01 - 3.02 - 3.03. On Tuesdays at 8pm, in front of The Voice, NCIS & DwtS, with no support from New Girl this year, I say it's pretty great.
Well, now I'm hoping NBC will do the same to Parks & Rec (which the Universal studio is producing).
how many episodes does a comedy require to reach syndication?
ReplyDeleteThe standard is 100 eps but I think that 88 eps is quite common these days.
ReplyDeletefor some reason I always thought it was less for comedies, oh well
ReplyDeleteNice!
ReplyDeleteGranted, I'm a little behind in catching up with the show this season, but it's always good to see the network showing support for the underdog!
