Looking at this, I'm surprised that it's quite equal to Raising Hope's career.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-45769643964272585422013-08-05T16:19:37.447-04:002013-08-05T16:19:37.447-04:00I'm quite impressed while looking at the now r...I'm quite impressed while looking at the now ratings. I imagined the oc as a Big Hit at least. Seeing that it was only average to flop surprised me.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-51201913251937721192013-08-05T11:48:03.061-04:002013-08-05T11:48:03.061-04:00I loved the show when it was on but only had the v...I loved the show when it was on but only had the vaguest awareness of its ratings at the time.<br /><br /><br /><br />Still, I'm convinced poor creative decisions killed it rather than any scheduling. The first season was great, but the show went seriously downhill in its second season and became almost unwatchable in the third. The show suddenly refound its creative mojo in its fourth season but it was too late for it to make a difference.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-28863606406508611412013-08-05T11:01:13.141-04:002013-08-05T11:01:13.141-04:00Oh The OC!

I think you are probably right that FOX's scheduling didn't help but killing the major character at the end of season 3 after an already pretty bad arc for her was certainly the last blow on the show. Although it was falling, already, the season 4 decline was ridiculously higher than the previous one and that is to blame. But wow, the "Now" feature really makes the show seem like a huge flop... a 0.98 on fox, really? InterestingSpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.com
