Very interesting Paramount cancels Halo.
Since they started releasing ratings info for when a show reaches the top Ten. Halo is actually the 2nd strongest performing show (to date) with only 1923 getting a higher rating in the US. And we know from at least 1st season Halo did better than the any of the Trek's outside of the US.
So, what's the cost difference between a Trek show and what Halo costs. And how did it compare to Trek for every day viewing beside week of release?
Really the only other thing was it did have a significant drop in season ratings (its average was still higher than SNW. Because if its ratings were always on a rather step curve, that would be a solid reason to cancel.
In fact with since it did show the possibility of higher ratings then Trek, as a means to see if its worth saving I am very surprised they didn't try leasing reruns to Netflix to help jump start viewership....
