TV Ratings (Tuesday & Wednesday 28th/29th September)

^ I would feel NBC would keep it around for a while longer because despite a poor demo, the viewer total may get it to the 13 mark at least. NBC could try a new slot but I doubt that will help, the problem is Undercovers is on the wrong network.

Anyone trying to get a new show off the mark stay away from NBC they are going to keep getting lower and lower, people do not want to watch NBC.

What do you think would've been a better network home for Undercovers? ABC perhaps?

 

[Starbreaker]

ABC would probably be a good fit for Undercovers, but I still think CBS is the best bet. It skews to ancient viewers, and Undercovers is actually a big hit in the 55+ crowd for some reason.

 

[bigdaddy]

NBC has nothing so I doubt it will be next. The Good Guys will be next on Fox.

In a perfect world I would of gone with FOX and said right imagine wednesday night is J.J night. A new show like Undercovers leading into Fringe because just being on FOX would of boosted the demo.

Wednesday night is wasted by FOX and they could of build such a solid night, I do wonder if FOX's treatment of Fringe made J.J not want to take Undercovers to them over NBC.

I was really starting to get into Life Unexpected...hope it stays on.

I couldn't agree more. Love the show and would hate to see it get canned.

 

[BigFoot]

^ Same here.

 

[Jax]

Life Unexpected will get a full season but I wouldn't bet on it getting a 3rd season even by CW standards. Its only saving grace might be CW can't cancel everything.

 

[BigFoot]

^ Yeah I know. Hopefully it'll at least get a decent ending.

ABC should give up on cop & lawyer shows.

Everyone should give up on cop and lawyer shows.

That's a really good idea. Have House and Lie to Me on Mondays, Glee and the sitcoms on Tuesdays, Undercovers and Fringe on Wednesdays, Bones and Hell's Kitchen on Thursdays.

Then American Idol comes back and I have Earthly idea where they are planning to move all the shows.

 

[Jax]

FOX am more than willing to take the job of sorting out your mess but am nowhere near crazy enough to touch NBC . To be honest Lie To Me was tried with House last season and failed, I don't understand how it got a 3rd season after being sent packing in December of 2009 mid way through season 2 and not brought back till June of this year. Lie To Me is an inhouse show so keep it for the summer if you want it around.

House & Bones could (did) make a killing combo again so FOX could try a new show at Thursday 8pm. When Idol returns well that creates problems while its in the 2 hour phase but if the sitcoms are doing poorly so axe them both and that frees up some space. American Idol should be used to prop up shows because who cares if the audience is inflated by Idol it still means more people are watching so you can charge more $$$ for adverts.

My FALL
(Mon) House & Bones
(Tues) Glee & Double Sitcoms
(Wed) Fringe & New Show
(Thurs) Lie To Me & Kitchen Nightmares
(Fri) Human Target & Repeat...(FRI 9pm is a wasteland hour only worth doing 8pm before people might go out.)
(Sun) Double Repeat + The Simpsons + American Dad + Family Guy & The Cleveland Show

* The Good Guys is dead already and should of been held back for midseason if Human Target failed.

Once Idol returns Sitcoms can go Bones can go back to thursday night with Lie To Me (Bones at 8pm) and the show with Fringe may need to wait to come back until Idol drops the hours.
