Cable Show Scorecard: December 2013


Very quiet month. There are a few changes but most of them came with the large number of finales this month.

VH1 2013 Season Average List


If you have been keeping up with my VH1 2013 Ratings List all year then you know that not much on this list will be a surprise. Still at this point of the year the list has become a sea of numbers and it gets hard to keep up with how all of these shows (30 in total but there are only 29 here) stack up with each other. I’ve done that work for you just as I did last year so here is the list.

10 Ratings Blurbs 12/24/13 Edition


I am going to take next week off for this post. I'm fairly certain there won't be 10 shows for me to talk about and most premieres won't happen until after the 1st.

10 Ratings Blurbs 12/17/13 Edition


Mostly a lot of season and winter finales on this list. I know some shows will be back with new episodes a lot sooner than others but unless it's a season premiere I only look at the day-by-day schedules. I have enough loose notes hanging around.

Would be just my luck that the 10th came today but there aren't any shows here that were discussed in the predictions post earlier. That doesn't mean I was able to pick 10 shows I really wanted to talk about. The important thing is there are 10 shows here.

10 Cable Show Renewal Chances: December 2013


This might as well be the Bravo list because that's what a good majority of these shows are. I think next month I will do a repeat of what I did last January and pick 10 shows that have only aired 1-2 episodes and give predictions based on that. I'll see how it goes but for now here's the last prediction post for the year.

Those pesky post-holiday ratings delays can't be helped. This time of year it is less annoying because a bunch of shows are wrapping up for their winter breaks and the schedule becomes full of endless holiday specials. None of which I bother to watch.

Cable Show Scorecard: November 2013


The end of the month is here again and there are some notable announcements this month. Since today is Saturday there probably won't be any last minute announcements made that would cause me to update the list so what you see is what you get.

10 Cable Show Renewal Chances: November 2013


Every time I take a month off from this I feel lost and scrambling to keep track of what I've written. This month is no different because I'm aware that I will end up redoing quite a few of these predictions. Most are because December is a month with very few premieres but that's the way it is and I just have to accept it.

Things are beginning to slow down so there probably won't be much to choose from as the list will begin to shrink between now and the end of the year.

Cable Show Scorecard: October 2013


This was a highly bizarre month on the cable show front. A lot of renewals here and quite a few shows getting split seasons here as well. The cancellation list is very short because the 5 shows under that are shows that haven't aired new episodes in over a year (silent cancellations). As always any decisions that come in today will get added to the list.

Tuesday, October 29, 2013

10 Ratings Blurbs 10/29/13 Edition


It really should be more than 10 shows on here this week but I had to get some comments in on the more important ones so those are below and just know that The Walking Dead got renewed today (Probably will not use that as the headline picture for Thursday's scorecard post though).

10 Cable Show Renewal Chances: 18 Month Review


I’ve been at this for about 18 months now. I did a post very similar to this one a year ago but because it had only been 6 months at the time I just did a straight list without tallying how many predictions I actually got right or wrong. Since there aren’t 10 shows that I can get to make predictions on this month (A horrible combination of shows with spotted ratings info and too many brand new shows made this possible) I’m just going to do another list of the shows I did my predictions on in the last 12 months and see where I’m at with how I’ve been doing.

I personally don't get the hype of Scandal. The whole premise of the show completely turns me off of it but good ratings are good ratings and they can't be ignored.

Sigh of relief that I'm able to get this post up before the full ratings list today. At least I had a lot to say this week.

Cable Show Scorecard: September 2013



I suppose you could say this month was fairly active in terms of announcements. Cable networks appeared to be taking advantage of the attention being put on broadcast networks so a lot of these decisions were slipped in amid the flurry of news over the last 2 weeks. Also take note that there are at least 4 (but possibly as many as 8) shows on this list that I am absolutely 100% sure of their fates. However I like for things to be official and that's why I have not and will not change their positions from the undecided sections until I get official word (as a hint, most of the shows are on VH1 or Bravo).

Well at least I feel reasonably organized with this post considering that today is Wednesday and there is a lot of room for confusion and error for me. It helps to write down things. Without that I doubt I would remember too much of anything anymore.

Cable Show Scorecard: August 2013


I like it when a post like this falls on a Saturday. It means I can take all the time I need to format it properly. But anyway there were quite a few renewals and order extensions this month but cancellations were fairly light. Next month could possibly be a light month with very little movement as well since the Broadcast networks will be preparing for the launch of their new season.

If you haven't yet you can go read my recap for this episode of Breaking Bad. There's also a True Blood recap and there will be a Bad Girls Club recap coming sometime tonight or tomorrow. Anyway that's my reason for not posting too much around here anymore.

10 Cable Show Renewal Chances: August 2013


If I remember correctly from last year, August and September are 2 of the 3 worst months with me trying to make this post. I was able to find 10 shows to talk about this month but it may be a challenge for next month because so far I'm not seeing very many cable shows coming along in the next 4 weeks.

These next 3 weeks might seem like there's a rush of shows coming and going but all of it is just a preview of what's to come in September and October.

Cable Show Scorecard: July 2013


Feels good to get this post done on time. Trying to get last month's post together was not very fun. Anyway the shows are here. A lot of additions and quite a bit of shuffling around went on this month. Probably because I think August will be a pretty slow month with a lot of networks preparing to transition into their fall schedules.

I was waiting for another show to put in here but 9 hours is a petty long time to wait and what I had to say for that one little show wasn't all that important (plus I think the finale for said show is coming up soon anyway).

Thank goodness I was able to get this up tonight because I was not looking forward to waiting yet another day for just a few shows.

10 Cable Show Renewal Chances: July 2013


If it isn't one thing getting delayed around here it's another. Luckily the weekly ratings are only delayed because of last week's holiday and should be up sometime later today. In the meantime there's these shows to mull over. Can't say there are too many fan favorites in this crop but I suppose that's mainly because there are several freshman shows here.

Cable Show Scorecard: June 2013


I'm a little relieved that it didn't take too much time to put this together but much of this can be attributed to the huge gap in between renewals last month (most of the renewals came either at the beginning or the end of the month).

10 Cable Show Renewal Chances: June 2013


Better late than never with this I suppose. I typed this all up the day before I intended to post it so the numbers mentioned only go up to June 9th. I haven't changed anything that I typed from that day but if I were to say that anything has changed then I would improve the chances of the #2 show on this list and lower the chances of the #9 show. Every other show in my opinion has remained the same in my eyes in their chances of getting renewed or canceled.

So I'm back but not 100% to be honest. Just enough to post this and to finally get around to posting my June predictions sometime in the morning.

When Life Happens

So I've been abandoning this place lately but it was not my intention to. Things happen and they suck sometimes but you just have to get through them. Not sure when I will be back in full capacity but when that happens I will post the June cable predictions post and the most recent weekly blurbs. I'm pretty sure the June scorecard will be delayed a bit but things should be regular again after the 4th of July. I suppose I'm somewhat forced to take an unofficial summer break. Not very fun but it does give me the opportunity to get a bit more organized.

10 Cable Show Renewal Chances: May 2013


This post was extremely close to not happening because I forgot that today was the 10th. Fortunately I was able to scrape together 10 shows that I already knew I had some general opinions on so while this month's post might be a little light on details there should still be enough to satisfy or agitate your curiosity.

Of course there's always old posts to look back on (including an update I made just yesterday to the one of those old posts from either last May or June).
