----------------------------------------------------

CBS
The Good Wife is now in big trouble because despite 11 million, CBS will NOT like the fact its dropped to 1.9. The Good Wife has slipped down to 50/50 on my AXE list but come next week it could find itself on the "Likely to be cancelled" section because the potential move to friday nights is being hampered by CSI:NY recent good run so now it looks like a fight to the death between TGW and Blue Bloods.

CBS should move CSI: Miami or Five-O to the post NCIS slot next season.

NBC
Parenthood is probably ok assuming it stays above 2.0 in the 10pm slot though I've always felt it sounds like a non 10pm show.

FOX
I wonder how many episodes Raising Hope will get next season because its clearly only been picked up to fill in the post Idol/Factor slot when the shows drop to 90 mins & 60 mins. At the rate of erosion, Traffic Lights will probably be pulled from the lineup before it can air all of its debut episodes.

ABC
ABC's choice is very clear - Time to clear out Tuesday nights.

CW
CW once again fails to crack 2 million --- HOW PATHETIC.

So V does better than Family in the ratings, but something tells it's also twice as expensive. I'm wagering on Family surviving but not V.

[Jax]

I really can't see ABC keeping either, they both have never shown any real potential.

Also I hear FOX has picked up American Dad until 2012-2013 season and that means...Bob's Burger is heading for Cancelville.

Besides the NCISs and Glee, what a sh1t night.

I think both are gone, but if one survives, it'll be V. They're already rearranging the deck chairs to reduce the budget.

Plus viewers stick around, unlike Family which everyone ditches.

I won't be totally surprised if ABC picks up V for a short 3rd season in a new slot maybe even fridays hoping for a Fridays but I still think its toast.

I was gonig to say someone changed their mind, then I saw "toast".

I still think it might get a 10 episode 3rd and finale season just because nothing ever happens on the show, no explosions = cheaper. 2-3 people will be killed, and it has stable numbers.

If the show is made by ABC I could see them doing several episodes, or at least a miniseries just for the 5 million fans to buy on DVD.
