SHUPS 4 DETH posted:I would be very surprised to see a renewal for The Following. Which is to say that it's getting renewed. It usually is. It and The Simpsons actually do still jockey back and forth between top for Sunday. Family Guy might be in the lead, but if it is, it's probably a negligible one. One thing that can be said about Fox is that they are one of the few(only) channels with cartoons on at primetime, and those cartoons are successful. Deadpool posted:CW renewed Beauty and the Beast. There are no words. Teek posted:Yeah, WTF. That's after they pushed it back on the schedule to summer airing. Does it have some insane international love or someting? That B&B keeps trucking is one thing. But Hart of Dixie!? Wasn't it pulling like, .2s? And a cancellation for TTP as well? CW is weird man. Is this the year where the meek inherit the TV?

I think Hart of Dixie was one of those situations where it got a season 3, and needs at least some number of season 4 episodes for syndication. Preferably a full season, but there was talk it might be a Nikita like smaller order.

I mean, the only shows I've ever seen rebroadcast are ones that were relatively popular during their original runs. Are there really networks out there that are chomping at the bit to pick up shows that limped across the goal-line, barely pulling .3 each night?

Aside from the people who keep citing them, nobody really cares about syndication benchmarks anymore because cable channels and streaming services will buy the rights to anything as long as they're cheap enough. That being said, someone at the CW did the math and figured out Hart of Dixie would make them more money than any hypothetical shows they had in the pipeline, so it was renewed. There's nothing more to it than that.

What do we know about the Mulaney sitcom that is apparently coming this fall? He is my favorite comedian, so I have high hopes, but I haven't really heard anything.

It's a multi-cam sitcom on Fox starring John Mulaney, Martin Short, Nasim Pedrad, Elliot Gould, and Zack Pearlman. He plays an aspiring comedian that's working for a former big time comedian that now hosts a game show (Martin Short).

There is dim hope that someone else might pick it up, but it is very dim. I mean I would say it is definitely dead on TV, but maybe one of the streaming services might pick it up for a short season.

I mean come on, Netflix just gave The Killing another season. THE KILLING. With the success they have enjoyed with Arrested Development I can't imagine they aren't at least in talks with Sony.

SHUPS 4 DETH posted:ABC cancelled Super Fun Night, Suburgatory, The Neighbors, Trophy Wife, and Mixology. Suburgatory lost it's way from it's original premise. The Neighbors was put into the Friday death slot despite being a very fun and quirky show. Toks needs more work immediately! ... and Mixology was D.O.A. from the very first episode. None of these axes surprise me really.

Zedd posted:Happy Endings also had hope of being moved and look how that ended. They were in talks with USA and that fell through. It probably also didn't seem worth it at the time for Netflix or anyone else to bother. Which is a shame because at this point I would almost rather Happy Endings was saved than Community (I feel Community has run its course, but I would like it to get a definite ending.)

Mixology actually wasn't too bad the last few episodes I saw. Also it gave Vanessa Lengies work, so that's a pity. I'm genuinely kinda pissed about how ABC handled The Neighbors. That was the stupidest schedule change of them all. ABC's continued inability to keep anything in a steady spot has killed so many shows now.

Can't say I'm terribly surprised considering Don Glover left, Chevy Chase was gone, Jon Oliver was leaving after being reintroduced, new old guy was leaving to be in the Breaking Bad spinoff, Allison Brie has a new show she is directing etc etc.

MOD CHALLENGE Hey, Occupation I guess I'll just throw you in the deep end then. This should be fun for everyone. You wanted bad TV? Well you'll get to do a trip report on Season 2 of Last Man Standing starring Tim Allen. Why not the first season? Because I've heard the second one is something. So we'll need a trip report on that whenever you're ready to start. Preferably updated episode by episode. I'd like to see at least one episode a week. I don't think 20 minutes out of a week is too much to ask. X-O fucked around with this message at 20:09 on May 9, 2014 |

I can see Community getting some sort of "movie" on Netflix, but I very much doubt they'll take up a full season. That is unless all the casts other commitments for next season goes tits up, then I could see them making a season. But that would probably mean it'd be late 2015 before anything aired.

Everything about it had done in six written all over it. There was nothing good about from the start, the story was bad, the writing was horrible and the acting was horrible. Even Gillan Anderson, who might have been the best thing about the show, couldn't save it from how awful it was.
