If we could have some evidence that the show was responsible for some of the voice softening i would make it an A- but this is still very good. ABC deserves props for managing to steady the ship big time here, I didn't think it was possible at all.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-35128066618233157672015-02-02T19:36:09.733-05:002015-02-02T19:36:09.733-05:00This is a bit unrelated but I really don't get...This is a bit unrelated but I really don't get where this notion that Grimm is suddenly in much more eminent danger than it ever was is coming from. It is basically even in PLUS with last year and higher than in Season 1. Probably only lower than season 2 because that season had Monday and Tuesday episodes. Meanwhile, NBC's average is worse than it was. What gives? Maybe this isn't specific to you but I keep seeing that sentiment everywhere and I really don't get it.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-41451905220329067332015-02-02T13:27:45.423-05:002015-02-02T13:27:45.423-05:00I'm relatively optimistic about The Night Shif...I'm relatively optimistic about The Night Shift for NBC. I saw one episode last summer and it seems like the perfect type of show to go after the Voice. <br />But yeah. When Mysteries of Laura is your biggest new show you have a problem. I think Allegiance could catch on. Yes, its basically the same idea as the Americans. But that has stopped other broadcast based on cable shows before. Look at the Mentalist. Same idea as Psych, but CBS made it more "mass appealing" and now its outliving what it was based around. <br />. NBC is far away from being able to work without the Voice, but I don't think FOX can do away with Idol right now. It's Results series low last year was a 1.5, which as good as anything Hell's Kitchen did this fall. <br />Sorry for the novelSpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-8450195630051769522015-02-02T11:42:08.042-05:002015-02-02T11:42:08.042-05:00I really think the Monday slot for DWTS makes sens...I really think the Monday slot for DWTS makes sense for ABC, especially in the Fall when ESPN Monday football airs opposite it and there are always seem to be a few local preemptions. Zero crossover between DWTS and MNF. A few local preemptions, even in some key markets, does less long run damage to this type of (arguably less serious/competitive) reality show than a scripted one.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-27319516163445384282015-02-02T11:10:01.221-05:002015-02-02T11:10:01.221-05:00FOX has Simpsons, Family Guy, Gotham and Empire, y...FOX has Simpsons, Family Guy, Gotham and Empire, yes, that's only four and two of them are half-hours, which means they have only three hours.<br /><br /><br />But FOX airs 15 hours of programming, NBC airs 22. But what you say is true Cutting saturdays and sundays at 7, FOX and NBC have the same proportion of good enough hours filled with scripted shows (as 5/18 and 3/11 are 27 and 28% of their hours). Lack of new hits, however, is a killer for NBC, even if they find two post-Voice hits next season, there is no guarantee Grimm will be renewal worth, Chicago PD will be because of their low standards.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-19922596377163693922015-02-02T10:58:07.677-05:002015-02-02T10:58:07.677-05:00Does FOX have 5 renewal worthy shows?

NBC can't do it to The Voice when they have only five renewal-worth scripted shows.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-26048563260440142242015-02-02T10:20:40.192-05:002015-02-02T10:20:40.192-05:00I think I thought it was doing even better, becaus...I think I thought it was doing even better, because even the disappointing points at the beginning kept. adjusting. up! Somtimes multiple tenths. The Nielsen glitch for ABC had a psychological effect the first few weeks. The rich (Sunday, Wednesday, Thursday) got richer and the poor (Monday, Tuesday) got more middle class. <br />.<br />Seriously, I'm glad this show has steadied. Not that I'm a huge fan, I just always root for ABC because I watch now a record 12 shows on their network*. <br />Solid A- grade from me.<br /><br />*(America's Funniest Home Videos, Once Upon a Time, Resurrection, Agents of Shield, Forever, Agent Carter, The Middle, The Goldbergs, Modern Family, How To Get Away With Murder, Shark Tank, Galavant) if anyone is curiousSpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.com
