Ratings Breakdown:
It was another race to the Monday overnight finish line, with first-place NBC inching past ABC by one-tenth of a rating point and CBS by three-tenths of a rating point in households. And the home of “The Voice” will have no trouble winning the evening in all key young adult demographics, while CBS remains the most improved (with year-to-year overnight household growth of 67 percent).
Tops for the evening, once again, was CBS powerhouse “The Big Bang Theory” at a 10.3 rating/16 share at 8 p.m., followed by an encore telecast at a 7.5/11 (#3) at 8:30 p.m. Most new series drop another 10 percent from week two to three in the overnights, so a dip of that exact percentage in households was no surprise for CBS drama “Scorpion” at 9 p.m. And a competitive third-place 8.0/12 was still 60 percent, on average, above year-ago sitcom occupants “2 Broke Girls” (5.1/ 8 on 10/07/13) and “Mom” (4.9/ 7). Although the real test of just how durable “Scorpion” is will occur once “2 Broke Girls” is anchoring the evening (effective on Oct. 27), three episodes in and a full season episode order should be right around the corner.
Relocated “NCIS: Los Angeles” on the Eye net at 10 p.m., meanwhile, scored a third-place 5.8/ 9, which is a considerable 53 percent improvement over failed year-ago occupant “Hostages” (3.8/ 6 on 10/07/13). “NCIS: Los Angeles” was considerably stronger airing out of “NCIS” on Tuesday last season, of course, with a 9.6/15 on 10/08/13. But facing both “The Blacklist” and “Castle” is no easy feat.
In the 8-10 p.m. battle of “Dancing With the Stars” opposite “The Voice,” the ABC dance extravaganza held a one-tenth of a rating point advantage (8.5/13 vs. 8.4/13). And both had minor slippage from the year-ago evening, with “DWTS” down by seven percent (versus a 9.1/14 on 10/07/13) and “The Voice” down by six percent (versus an 8.9/13). So, the news remains more or less consistent this season, which is a good thing. But “The Voice,” no doubt, will clobber “DWTS” in the young adult demos, with its advantage in adults 18-49 last week (4.0 rating/11 share vs. 1.8/ 5) a sizeable 122 percent, based on the Live Plus Same Day data.
Tops at 10 p.m. was NBC’s “The Blacklist” at a 6.6/11 in the overnights, which was 10 percent below the 7.3/12 on the year-ago evening. But “Castle” on ABC was no slouch at a competitive second-place 6.3/10.
In week three news, “Gotham” on Fox dipped by another 13 percent in the overnights with a 4.6/ 7 at 8 p.m. Three-week overnight track: 5.7/ 9 – 5.3/ 8 – 4.6/ 7. While this was only equal to “Bones” on the year-ago evening, the considerable early gains via the DVR and the social media presence still makes “Gotham” a definite keeper. Smaller overnight lead-in support translated into a loss of nine percent week-to-week for “Sleepy Hollow,” which scored a fourth-place 3.1/ 5 at 9 p.m. Comparably, this was down by a hefty 38 percent from the year-ago evening (5.0/ 8 on 10/07/13). But “Sleepy Hollow,” like “Gotham,” is a large option via the DVR, which is one of the more important ingredients.
In season-premiere news, relocated sophomore “The Originals” on The CW opened with a miniscule 1.0/ 1 at 8 p.m., which dropped from its year-ago series-opener (1.7/ 3 on Thursday 10/03/13) by 41 percent. And this was 10 percent below the season-premiere of former time period occupant “Hart of Dixie” on the year-ago evening (1.1/ 2 on 10/07/13). While there is much more to the overnights, don’t expect all that much based on this initial set of data.
Next on The CW was a behind-the-scenes look at the first nine seasons of “Supernatural” (subtitled “A Very Special Supernatural Special”) at a 0.8/ 1 (#5), which was not all that…well…special. Season No. 10 of “Supernatural” kicks-off this evening at 9 p.m. out of the launch of “The Flash.”

Friday's Final Adjusted Ratings are normally available on the following Monday.
If you’re interested in Ratings/Renewals/Cancellations then we have a number of resources here at SpoilerTV that we recommend you check out.
The Originals started with the wrong foot. Mondays are not a good day for CW. I really hope The Flash and Supernatural do great today!!!
ReplyDeleteBad news for the Originals :/ Damn, the CW for giving us the worst slot of the week
ReplyDeleteI think The Originals could still get 0.6 but no higher than that. Honestly, I felt the show lost its footing after Rebekah left and I couldn't really get into the 2nd half of the season after that so I'm not surprised it dropped.
ReplyDeleteExpect some heavy duty DVR gain
ReplyDeleteGuessing The Originals got around a 0.5 or 0.6. I think no matter what the show gets it will be renewed.
ReplyDeleteLooks like this is going to be a rough year for The CW.
Ouch at Gotham. FOX can't catch a break.
ReplyDeleteMy guess 0.5 but if they do get 0.6 that's a win for cw on mon
ReplyDeleteDVR numbers dont help.
ReplyDeleteI m loving Gotham series. Cw ratings dance starting today . Hehehe
ReplyDeleteRough night for CW.
ReplyDeleteI know but something is better than nothing
ReplyDeleteAny demo bw 0.5-0.6 .cw will take it gladly
ReplyDeleteIt'll do much better once BBT moves away from Monday nights. And it was hardly an "ouch" once you consider DVR numbers.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad Scorpion is holding up, I'm loving that show so much! Im getting a bit anxious to see how it does without TBBT but I think it will do well. It's just unfortunate that it's going to have a female skewing lead-in because Scorpion is male skewing.
ReplyDeleteThat's not certain especially for serialized shows
ReplyDeleteNothing is certain, but as the article says, right now it looks like a like a definite keeper.
ReplyDeleteGotham needs to start stabilizing soon
ReplyDeleteThe Blacklist is down slightly from last week but it doesn't look like it will be hitting 3s often
As feared by everyone,TO tanked.Looks like CW will have a bumpy ride ahead!!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if CW can beat FOX tonight LOL
ReplyDeleteAlmost everything is down. In the 25M, Gotham is down six tenths, BL is down four, TV is down three and the rest is down by at least two (except Dancing and LA). This could swing with FNs of course.
ReplyDeleteSwirch places with TO & Reign
ReplyDeleteDVR can definitely save gotham, sleepy hollow, agents of shield and forever otherwise ratings wise all these 4 of my fav shows are in huge danger
ReplyDeleteLol me too
ReplyDeleteI am a bit afraid about The Originals based on this but then again, the CW is always the case in which the overnights are even less useful than always due to the extremely young skewing nature of their shows and the small numbers to begin with. Remember when he used to call Supernatural a loser on Wednesdays and it would jump to 1.0?
ReplyDeleteI am affraid but not hopeless yet.
Elsewhere, it appears that Gotham and Scorpion held well, but I want demo numbers before going further.
I think as long it doesn't drop below 0.5 it should be safe
ReplyDeleteAre we sure about that? In theory it would skew towards males, but until we see numbers, I can't be entirely convinced.
ReplyDeleteIts a keeper because FOX is a mess.
ReplyDeleteThank God the dvr is saving Gotham. I really like it and it's the only new show I'm watching.
ReplyDeletedo u have exact #s?
ReplyDeleteThat, and the fact that the rest of Fox's schedule is collapsing.
ReplyDeleteDeadline is where I got that from
ReplyDeleteAgreed the show just get better. This weeks episode was fabulous I hope it keeps up
ReplyDeleteI don't think there's a definitive show that is worthy of being called "male-skewing".. More male skewing? Sure!
ReplyDeleteOh, interesting. I just remember reading, many years ago, there were a large number of female fans of Homicide: Life on the Street--more than anyone might expect. Thinking of that makes me think you can't always be 100 percent sure, you know?
ReplyDeleteCouldn't care less just as long as the show gets renewed. I've already met a handful of people on Twitter who say they can't watch it because it's on at the same time as BBT. So I trust that the numbers will rise at least a little.
ReplyDeleteIf my memory serves me right, then:
ReplyDeleteGotham is at a 2.2.
The Blacklist at a 2.4
The Voice at 3.7
Castle 2.0
And those are the only ones I remember.
With fox on a middle age crisis situation Gotham is safe.
ReplyDeleteWell I hope so for TO, because Reign had a 0.9 in the overnights, which translated to 1.01 Million viewers and a 0.4 A18-49. So based on the overnight, I predict 1.1-1.2 Million viewers with a 0.5-0.6 rating.
ReplyDeleteThanks! ouch for Gotham and TBL
ReplyDeleteThe originals isnt doing bad because of its slot. Its doing bad because Julie Plec and those in charge are alienating mass groups of their fanbases with treatment. They keep coming up with plots that no one wants, and then beg for ratings after they've sent everyone away. The Originals can take their dank queen hayley the moron all the way into cancellation.
ReplyDeleteAre the ratings for Gotham really that bad considering the competition?
ReplyDeleteDVR won't be the reason any of those shows get renewed.
ReplyDelete0.5-0.6 it's good for Mondays.But it was only season premiere.So i don't feel safe for TO.
ReplyDeleteI'm basing this on the final ratings that were available to us last week. not sure if he meant the old top 25 markets or the finals, so I'm making an assumption.
ReplyDeletePlus, remember Scandal and HTGAWM did a 3.9 and a 3.8 on the top25 markets and they ended up doing a 3.4 and a 3.3. so these numbers are highly subjectable to change.
Very interested to see how TB is holding up in L+3 and L+7.
ReplyDeleteI think NBC would be wise to run a marathon of the series leading up to its Superbowl episode. They barely ran the show during the summer, and since it will be going away in November to make room for SOA, it will be a nice way to give the show a jolt of energy after it takes a break.
Totally saw The Originals getting creamed on Mondays.
ReplyDeleteStill great for Scorpion.
I think there is a legitimate chance that they do.
ReplyDeleteI like to call it SofA, since SOA is taken. :)
ReplyDeleteNo, I wasn't comparing the ratings to the official ratings last week. That's an unfair comparison but the numbers swing.
ReplyDeleteGotham 2.8
Blacklist 2.6
Voice 3.8
Castle 1.8
That's what I said in a post down the page.
ReplyDeleteIt'll have to absolutely plummet not to get renewed.
ReplyDeleteNot sure about the exact scheduling, but one problem is that it's only on for 16 episodes. Fox can't let it take a break and then try to build an audience as it runs fresh episodes in the spring, or something like that.
See above. I was making an apples to apples comparison because the numbers change. There is usually a clear pattern of which shows go up, stay flat or fall from top 25 to Fast nationals.
ReplyDeleteGotham beat TB?
ReplyDeleteDVR isn't saving anyone.All that matters is relative ratings. As long as Gotham's ratings are above FOX' average, the show is safe.
ReplyDeleteOnce again, can't be sure until we get the prelims.
ReplyDeleteGood point, lol.
ReplyDeleteI hope Heller has an exit strategy. I don't want this to turn into the mentalist, a show that wenton for about 3 seasons too long.
ReplyDeleteare these this week? or last week?
ReplyDeleteScorpion is definietely not male skewing http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/the-sked-monday-ratings-9-29-2014.html
ReplyDeleteFox is just pathetic right now.
ReplyDeleteIt has slightly more female viewers (in the 18-49) than male viewers.
ReplyDeletePremiere week aside, Gotham has handomly beaten TBL, I believe.
ReplyDeleteNope, they tied last week
ReplyDeleteWoah, I got the info from Deadline but I guess it was wrong, sorry :/
ReplyDeleteGotham being FOX's highest rated drama is saving it.
ReplyDeleteOh look another entitled Klaroline stan, the show already has its family it doesnt need a blonde whiny cheerleader along with it.
ReplyDeleteAwww, I hoped/thought that the Supernatural Special would get better ratings. :(
ReplyDeleteI hope tonight's premiere gets better ones.
Meh. In relation to the rest of the FOX drama lineup it's a ratings juggernaut.
ReplyDeleteReign had a 0.3 in A18-34 so its young skew was pretty terrible unfortunately. If TO manages to have a different skew, overnight comparisons with Reign would be meaningless. I want to believe the show did a bit better than that.
ReplyDeleteDamn Monday death slot is killing TO. Sad too cause last nights episode was great. The season looks good. I hope they move it.
ReplyDeleteConsidering that Castle has been ignored for ABC, poor lead in and tough competition, 1.7 or 1.8 is what I expected for season premiere, well, the show is around these numbers this time.
ReplyDeleteI doubt they move it. Moving Supernatural to Mondays to help it on the other hand I think is likely.
ReplyDeleteIts in its 7th season
ReplyDeletewhy does it need a lead-in?
Plus its the same lead in for the past couple of years and almost the same competition from last year
I think if Reign continues to drop, CW could start thinking of swapping it with The Originals. Throw one under the bus to save the better performing one. Having a Vampire Diaries/Originals night could be good too.
ReplyDeleteIsn't there only a one-day overlap? Doesn't SOA end the day after SOA (NBC) start? If so, it's not like SOA can hold that acronym forever! LOL
ReplyDeletesame competition from las year???
ReplyDeleteits only ncis La that is new and even that is not performing well-
ReplyDeleteHostages premiered to a 1,9 last year just like NCIS LA
Not looking good for The Originals, but as long as it did a 0.5 on the demo it will be ok.
ReplyDeleteI hate to see that Sleepy Hollow is still dipping! I hope it doesn't go that much lower on the demo
do you know the ratings and audience of Ncisla last year?
ReplyDeletePoor lead-in? Its had DWTS as a lead-in for 7 years. DWTS may not pull in the big ratings now but it did in the past which helped Castle a lot.
ReplyDeleteyes but last week premiere got 9 million with 1,9 demo
ReplyDeleteI thought this weeks episode felt like a finale or a premiere episode it was just so good!
ReplyDeleteNetworks needs episodes for syndication. If all of the seasons are 16 eps, expect a lot of seasons! Unless the ratings plummet that is...
ReplyDeleteyes Dwts is a poor lead in NOW, why ABC don't use dwts as a lead in for new shows? this problem with bad or god lead in is acceptable when you are talking about Revenge, don't you?
ReplyDeleteThe Blacklist won on the premiere week with a 3.4 and tied in the second one with a 2.8
ReplyDeleteI wouldve killed for Revenge to have DWTS lead-in when it was pulling 4s 5s and 6s in the demo which Castle had for years. Castle should be able to stand on its own by now.
ReplyDeleteDWTS does low 2s - Castle has been in 2s
ReplyDeleteand again WHY DOES CASTLE NEED A LEAD IN? it should be able to pull its own
Revenge had Once and it was moved.
ReplyDeleteyes once was only doing 3s and high 2s
ReplyDeletewhat does this have anything to do with
And Once never pulled DWTS ratings it had in its prime. Bye.
ReplyDeletelol bye
ReplyDeletestop making excuses Castle is simply aging and to some people the writing is not the best
ReplyDeletesome people are using the same excuses for other show and this is acceptable.
ReplyDeleteNo, Reign had a 0.4, and I know that The Originals skews younger, that'so why it's possible for it to have a 0.6.
ReplyDeleteFast Nationals
ReplyDeleteGotham 2.5/2.4
Scorpion 2.6/2.4
Originals .7/.7
A show with 12-13M ( ok the demo is not that good though) of people watching is good I mean I wish some of my favorite shows had DWTS as lead-in.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
ReplyDeleteYou've been my hero since the new season started!
TO did pretty well considering the night.
ReplyDeleteis 0.7 the demo for originals or total viewers ? (not american)
ReplyDeleteDemo
ReplyDeleteNot bad for Scorpion.
ReplyDeleteThanks for these :)
ReplyDeleteThat's lower than I expected for Scorpion, im slightly concerned :P
Mmm, if The Originals did a 0.7, then it's doing really good for Monday. Could be better, but it's good enough
ReplyDeleteNot so bad for Originals.

OUAT went up 0.2 by the way
ReplyDeleteI am a huge castle fan but even I admit it shouldn't rely on lead ins anymore. And honestly it doesn't. It beats DWTS often now. Castle is aging and ratings going down is a given. I'm grateful for DWTS for the great lead in it was in its early yrs. Now Castle shouldn't need one and it doesn't. It has its own relatively smaller and steady audience .
ReplyDeleteoh my damn really?
ReplyDelete3.3? ahaha that's awesome.
tied with HTGAWM
Then, matching HTGAWM as the #2 highest drama of the week. YAAAS. OUAT is killing it!
ReplyDeleteBtw, how much did Ressurection adjust (if at all)
HELL YESSSSSSS!!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy to see Sleepy Hollow steady!
ReplyDeleteCBS should have premiered Mom a week earlier, it would have provided a better lead in than a TBBT repeat, Scorpion is still doing good, though.
Good numbers for The Originals; could've been better, but it's good enough
Revenge?
ReplyDeleteIt did mich better on Tuesdays.. I hope they do something though.
ReplyDeleteThat's great! A 3.3 is a huge rating. And it tied Scandal for the week? wow
ReplyDeleteI hope it keeps this up!
No, it's a tenth below Scandal for the week. It tied HTGAWM.
ReplyDelete3.3 :) Awesome!
ReplyDeleteWhat does this mean? Where are these from?
ReplyDeleteYES!!! the voice is going down
ReplyDeleteA tenth below! Tying Murder. It's still awesomeeeee
ReplyDeleteHave not found it yet.
ReplyDeleteQuite a drop for Scorpion sadly.
ReplyDeleteI haven't found the finals for the other Sunday shows yet.
ReplyDelete1.4
ReplyDeleteHe mustve got it from the top 25. Res and Revenge wouldnt be on there.
ReplyDelete1.4 and 5.27M
ReplyDeleteOnly 2.5 for Scorpion ... that's quite a drop.
ReplyDeleteRessurection?
ReplyDeleteWth happened to Scorpion?!
ReplyDeleteDamn, that's a huge drop for Scorpion.
ReplyDeleteAnd TBBT is in low 4s already is a bit worrying.
2.0 and 6.74M
ReplyDelete"Once Upon A Time and Resurrection were each adjusted up two tenths and Revenge was adjusted up a single tenth while Madam Secretary was adjusted down a single tenth among adults 18-49 versus Sunday's preliminary ratings." (from TVBTN)
ReplyDeleteThe Originals got a 0.7 in 18-34, too.
ReplyDeleteWhy does that make you happy?
ReplyDeleteLook at the 1/2 hr breakdowns that i posted in the comments.
ReplyDeletei hate that show lol
ReplyDeleteWe've just posted them :)
ReplyDeleteNCIS: LA got a 1.6, It's toast.
ReplyDeleteActually, a 4.4 is still considered mid 4s. I don't think it is worriesome yet, if it keeps this rating- or goes lower- when it moves back to Thursdays, then it's worriesome
ReplyDeleteI don't like the Scorpion drop at all, I think it's a bit concerning, even if last week really was a bit of an overachievement. Gotham still did well though. Sleepy Hollow stabilizing is very good news for FOX.
ReplyDeleteAs for the battles of the 10pm dramas, The Blacklist did about the same even with a depressed voice but the half hour drop is still a bit troubling. Castle had okay retention out of weak DWTS and LA was a bit of a let down falling so much after what I thought was an okay debut last week.
As for The Originals, I think it did well though I was hoping (not expecting) that 0.8. Still, unlike the other networks, CW veteran shows tend to have higher ratings during fall than the premiere, so I will remain hopeful. And given its spring ratings and the night in general for the CW, I still call it a winner.
shows that likely wouldn't hit the ratings The Voice does every week.
ReplyDeleteI would usually consider it mid 4s, if it was another show. TBBT has different standards.
ReplyDeleteit was totally dependent on NCIS i guess ,CBS is struggling with 10 pm slots
ReplyDeleteIt really shouldn't be lead-in dependent six seasons in.
ReplyDeleteThe Scorpion drop has me concerned as well, I adore the show, I don't want to see it go much lower, I'm hoping it was anomaly or something, to do so well last week and drop so much this week is odd.
ReplyDeleteStill better than Hostages. Once The Blacklist moves to Thursdays it might do better. Also, it might get a big lift from DVR although I haven't seen any numbers yet.
ReplyDeleteDon't like those NCIS LA numbers one bit. Scorpion's drop is a little worrying. I have no idea what'll happen to it when TBBT moves in a few weeks.
ReplyDelete1.9 (or 1.8) for Castle - not great, but probably it will still be ABC´s 2nd rated show at 10.00!
ReplyDeleteAnd since ABC is on a roll adjusting up wise, I can still dream about Castle getting a 2.0:):)
Yes but it still has scorpion which is doing 2.5 in demo which is similar to NCIS yet the drops are alarming. I thought it will give competition to Castle but Castle is performing better
ReplyDeleteIt's more than fine.
ReplyDeleteWell Blacklist will be against Scandal... I think one of the two will fall by the end of the season
ReplyDeleteNCIS LA will move to weekends if it keeps performing like this or probably get cancelled ?
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that Sleepy Hollow at least stabilized from last week. I was worrying it was going to drop further. Also, Gotham, The Blacklist, and Castle are still doing very well.
ReplyDeleteOh no scorpion that's bad I'm hurting now it will be very worrying once the tbbt lead in is gone
ReplyDeleteCastle stripped to the high ones too.
Ehh at NCIS LA. This is a crazy fall.
ReplyDeleteScorpian's ratings in the next few weeks will be interesting. Honestly it's a fun watch but not good enough for 3s for sure.
I love scorpion too and I'm really worried for it now. One of the reasons I hate getting attached to new shows .
ReplyDeleteWait? WHAT?! Originals did a 0.7 ?!?!
ReplyDeleteTHANK THE LORD
I thought scorpion did well.
ReplyDeleteScorpion's drop is worrying. I don't like the NCIS LA numbers either but it's still doing better than Hostages. I'm not declaring it canceled yet.
ReplyDeleteIt did win the night but the dropped is worrying from last week
ReplyDeleteDude, I expected Originals to drop to a 0.5 or 0.6 so a 0.7 on a MONDAY night after being moved there with little to no promotion indicating a time-change is a very good sign in my book.
ReplyDeleteKeep in mind: monday+CW have never been a solid combination.
0.7 isn't too bad for TO
ReplyDeleteHow did it win the night?
ReplyDeleteNot sure. Depends on how other shows do. If there is very little else to be removed from the schedule, then it may well get cancelled.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is. But not by that much.
ReplyDeleteI was actually referring to NCIS LA doing better when The Blacklist moves. I'm not sure State of Affairs is gonna do that great so I hope that heps LA.
ReplyDeleteThe Blacklist vs Scandal will be interesting to see but I think they can co-exist. Of course both of them might drop some, but I think they will still be way above cancelation levels.
0.7 isn't too bad
ReplyDeletenot at all actually, I'm surprised even.
ReplyDeleteI was expecting TO to perform like Reign or Hart of Dixie did last year but it getting a 0.7 is a pretty good start for a show that was moved to the networks weakest night.
I had season 3 already written off
It's extremely unlikely that LA is cancelled this year. 10pm in general is just a big problem for CBS. Elementary will struggle to even hit these numbers (it had a 1.4 finale for god sakes), CSI is doing very low 1s and while Stalker premiered with a 2.0, all likelihood says that it will drop enough in the next two weeks to put it behind LA. That leaves POI and even that one is doing only marginally better.
ReplyDeleteThe timeslot typo sorry.
ReplyDeleteNCIS: Los Angeles will not get cancelled this year unless it goes to Hostages territory and even then, I think it's unlikely.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget Hostages was a serialized show and LA can easily get some higher numbers when Castle and The Blacklist are in repeat mode. It will also be interesting to see how LA does once State of Affairs enters, I am not sure it SofA is gonna do Blacklist numbers.
ReplyDeleteWe might just get a 3rd season (and 4th for syndication) yet. Here's to 2 more years of The Originals gracing our screens with their presence!
ReplyDeleteHostages was a newbie and LA is in its sixth year. Also, LA is already in syndication so I agree that it's unlikely to be canceled.
ReplyDeleteI'm interested to see what happens to the CBS Monday line-up when TBBT moves.
ReplyDeleteAfter last nights episode I truly hope that we make it, cheers mate!
ReplyDeleteStuff that is certainly ahead of LA in CBS's cancellation pole list (in no particular order)
ReplyDelete- The Amazing Race
- Madam Secretary
- CSI
- The Good Wife
- Blue Bloods
- Hawaii Five-0
- Stalker
- Two and a Half Men/ The McHarthys
- Person of Interest (not owned)
CBS will not be cancelling NCIS: Los Angeles, it won't happen.
It's really sad for shows like Gotham and Sleepy Hollow. Going up against the colossal The Voice and way overrated TBBT, they really stand no chance.
ReplyDeleteThey will both end up renewed (SH possibly moved to Friday's next year, akin to Fringe). Gotham will end up renewed very soon. To much DVR gain and social media buzz to not. Plus, with the huge troubles at FOX, these are a few of the only good shows they have (Quality & Rating wise).
Wow 0.7 for the originals did not see that coming totally .cw might have just found out their mon debacle
ReplyDeleteFOX has better things to send to Friday than Sleepy Hollow
ReplyDeleteYeah, true. Only way NCIS LA goes if it has a massive drop and doesn't come back up again.
ReplyDeleteMaybe, but the Supernatural Special wasn't an actual scripted episode so it did well considering that and the fact it was on a Monday.
ReplyDeleteIt got a 0.7!
ReplyDeleteThe Amazing Race is not getting cancelled anytime soon. They are already casting fir season 27. TAAHM is ending this season.
ReplyDeleteI don't think they have anything they can send to Fridays actually ahah
ReplyDeleteThe Voice won the 9pm timeslot.
ReplyDeleteCancelled or moved to summer is indifferent for these purposes. It may also be kept for the regular season but as spackle, similarly to how Undercover Boss has been held.
ReplyDeleteAnd there was me thinking every day but Monday was like a Friday for FOX.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you consider "better"? My point is simply that there is no way SH will be canceled. To much rave about it, critically and otherwise. They would send it to Friday WAY before canceling it.
ReplyDeleteI agree, it did well.
ReplyDeleteI don't see reason for getting worried just yet. But it shouldn't do this type of drops again.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree with you.....but, after seeing the numbers, I think TO did great, because the show had almost no promotion like you said and it aired on a Monday with so much competition. I think the show will do great.
ReplyDeletehow come they moved it to mondays? i thought it was doing fine on tuesdays.
ReplyDeleteOh come on Castle is the best, !! they deserve a better rating!!
ReplyDeleteI guess to try and stabilize Monday nights. Last year was bad and so was the year before that. I guess their logic is it did well it has a fan base and they will follow it to Monday's.
ReplyDeleteCW's trying to fix Mondays. Last TV season they pretty much used Monday as an extra death slot.
ReplyDeleteI agree
ReplyDeleteWhen I say "better" I mean there are other shows that rate lower and are deemed better for a Friday move than Sleepy Hollow; the show could go to Wednesday or Thursdays first. It may not be the breakout star that it was last year, but its ratings are good enough for a weekday that is not Friday
ReplyDeleteThat's true, only coming midseason something could be moved there, but really, I doubt FOX would do so.
ReplyDeleteComing next season Sleepy Hollow may move to a different night, but I highly doubt its Fridays
Mondays this year are going to be wacky. Once TBBT moves, Scorpion and NCIS LA will most likely take another dip however I'm more interested in the 10 PM slot when the Blacklist goes away and State of Affairs replaces it next month. I'm really interested in how Castle and NCIS: LA will be affected by that. I think that change will prove whether or not NCIS LA depended on its mother ship. So far after two episodes, it's starting to show that way. I don't know if the low numbers mean that they have lost viewers or The Blacklist and Castle are their preferences but right now, they're not on the sunny side of things.
