It does well enough for renewal? You renew it and do it again with a whole new syndicate (a bit like how American Horror Story has the self-contained seasons). Having a 7-ep show on the bench would have allowed ABC to quickly cancel their worst drama and have a clean fill-in to take them to the winter break. Instead, Lucky 7 is the one they had to cancel.<br /><br /><br />Personally, I actually like 10pm DWTS results shows on Tuesday now. They can plug those in real fast, they can't cost much, they'd outperform Scandal repeats, and dead-skewing DWTS is a better lead-in for the local news than it is for anything else.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-91991201872431995092013-10-10T12:01:16.574-04:002013-10-10T12:01:16.574-04:00Yeah it's an ABC thing to do but I hate it, I ...Yeah it's an ABC thing to do but I hate it, I hope they don't go for it!Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-71290588615329731132013-10-10T12:00:56.815-04:002013-10-10T12:00:56.815-04:00I am not sold on Killer Women at all, I think it w...I am not sold on Killer Women at all, I think it will be a big flop, so I wouldn't have gone for that exact lineup, but it would still be way better than what they had. That's the main issue I have with their tuesday. While the idea of an all new tuesday is awesome, the execution, apart from shield, was terrible, they just threw stuff together that made no sense being together (or being greenlighted in the first case as lucky 7). I am always puzzled with situations in which we ALL can agree that it will be a flop but the networks cannot see it and waste money on it! (We Are Men, Lucky 7, Betrayal, Welcome to the Family, Ironside, etc... We all called this! How come they didn't?!)Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-75099077765872611352013-10-10T11:55:42.281-04:002013-10-10T11:55:42.281-04:00SHIELD/Big Thunder/Killer Women would have been a ...SHIELD/Big Thunder/Killer Women would have been a very splashy All-New Super Tuesday.

I agree that The Neighbors will likely just live out on Friday (I don't see anything else they move there doing much better), and I think that the location of the rest of the comedies rests on how well SFN and The Goldbergs hold up. <br /><br />Also, I have a really bad feeling that Mixology will get the ol' 'post Modern Family April premiere'.

I don't see how can they fit everything on wednesdays though. What they did last year and the year before was a terrible idea of airing comedies amidst repeats on wednesdays, they should know better. I say that unless it gets super ugly with SFN, which judging from its premiere it won't, they will let it roll, probably replacing trophy wife with suburgatory and then not giving a complete season to either super fun night or back in the game or the goldbergs and plugging in mixologySpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-64294606646287950642013-10-10T10:05:57.338-04:002013-10-10T10:05:57.338-04:00I'm getting a feeling that the entire Tuesday ...I'm getting a feeling that the entire Tuesday comedy block gets blown up again. If Super Fun Night can stay afloat they might have to keep some comedies on Tuesdays, but if it dies before 2014 then I think they can axe TW, SFN and The Neighbors, and keep all their comedies within three hours.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-41435500639048632272013-10-10T10:00:21.443-04:002013-10-10T10:00:21.443-04:00If The Goldbergs and Trophy Wife were doing better...If The Goldbergs and Trophy Wife were doing better, I could have seen Back in the Game moving at midseason to Fridays to replace The Neighbors. But with Goldbergs still not finding a bottom and Trophy Wife's 1.4 a weak bottom, I think Back in the Game will get to play out its season in one timeslot while Suburgatory could head to Tuesdays.<br /><br /><br />I say renew.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-68058972645767470002013-10-10T09:54:31.444-04:002013-10-10T09:54:31.444-04:00"The Tim Allen/James Caan Yelling Hour" ..."The Tim Allen/James Caan Yelling Hour" ads might work, ABC might be able to reel in some New Girl fans that way.Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3149153403168306818.post-25474284248491459132013-10-10T09:53:50.044-04:002013-10-10T09:53:50.044-04:00That is very wise, yeah.

I do think however that ABC was a bit overly ambitious with so many comedies. They should have stuck with the compatible goldbergs after the middle and trophy wife after mf. I get that they were trying to "replicate" wednesdays on tuesdays but it was too much to ask of those shows. Back in the game got somehow saved due to that IMO, but I think ABC would have been better served with another drama on tuesday such as big thunder that would have also been more compatible with shield. Anyway, enough rambling. Renew it is. <br /><br />By the way and out of topic, will we get end of october best case/worst case for stuff like mike and molly, almost human, raising hope (wherever it airs), etc?Spothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222504847153680060noreply@blogger.com
