10 Ratings Blurbs: 12/22/15 Edition


I don't think I will do a post next week. There won't be enough shows to be worth the effort. I'll see what happens in 2 weeks but no promises there.

I actually had to leave a lot of shows off this list. That's a shame because I feel like I will need them next week.

Update: I'm going to post my full ratings post here under the blurbs. These numbers of course are from December 8th-14th. I'll post last week's ratings and blurbs later today.

There will be a lot of finales over the next week. After that, the dry season comes and I'll probably be forced to take a 2 week break.

10 Ratings Blurbs: 12/2/15 Edition


I managed to scrape together 10 shows to put on the lost this week. Next week shouldn't be much of a problem but after that, I'm not so confident about it. December is a dead month for TV, especially as we get closer to the end of the year.

This week's post features the last fall broadcast premiere for 2015. I wish I could say the same for cable but it looks like December is shaping up to be a more active month than usual for premieres.

10 Ratings Blurbs: 11/17/15 Edition


This is just one of those weeks with a jumbled collection of shows. That will change over the next couple of weeks when shows start having their fall finales.

There is not much to say about this week's post other than there is a lot of mediocrity and disappointment here.

This wasn't a very inspiring week of ratings. There will be some finales coming in the next few weeks and the broadcast shows will start rolling into their holiday hiatuses in a few weeks too.

This week is like a meh week. Couple of bright spots, but mostly shows with unimpressive but not terrible ratings.

Tuesday, October 20, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 10/20/15 Edition


I didn't expect to use 3 spots for VH1 shows but I had the free space and the opportunity was there so I took it.

10 Ratings Blurbs: 10/13/15 Edition


There were so many premieres, finales and reunions last week that I actually had to exclude 4 shows from the list. At least I'll get to touch on a couple of those next week.

10 Ratings Blurbs: 10/6/15 Edition


This is another cable dominated list this week. I expect next week to be a little more balanced only because The CW shows are returning and I do cover a lot of those shows.

10 Ratings Blurbs: 9/29/15 Edition


In my opinion, the premiere ratings for these broadcast shows have mostly been a dud. There are a few exceptions of course but I'll be the first to say that this list doesn't accurately reflect how underwhelming broadcast ratings have been as a whole (mostly because I try to keep the list as balanced as possible).

Tuesday, September 22, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 9/22/15 Edition


The start of the new broadcast season has been quiet so far. I think it's because people are looking for mega hits and I don't think they are going to find them in this new crop of shows. Also if last night was any indication, a lot of returning shows are going to struggle hard.

I guess you can consider this to be the last slow week until perhaps right before Thanksgiving.

One of these days I will remember that Monday holidays push everything back to Wednesday.

Better late than never. If I would have had to wait longer then I may not have bothered to do the post this week.

10 Ratings Blurbs: 8/25/15 Edition


The cable networks are beginning to transition into their fall schedules. The beginning of the broadcast season is still a month away so these lists going forward will be heavy on focusing on premieres and finales.

I wouldn't call this week the calm before the storm. No, this week is more like the eye because things are only going to get more interesting from here.

I like the assortment of shows this week. I didn't have to use too many filler shows.

This is another slow week but August is shaping up to be a fairly active month.

I won't call this a VH1 dominated list this week but there are 3 shows on here. Slow news week.

10 Ratings Blurbs: 7/21/15 Edition


There is no real theme to this week's post. None at all. Just 10 random shows mostly here to fill space because there was only 1 premiere and no finales last week.

Tuesday, July 14, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 7/14/15 Edition


Lots of premieres this week and that means having a lot of new shows to talk about.

Wednesday, July 8, 2015

I didn't get a chance to post anything last ween and the holiday pushed everything back this week. Things should be back to normal by next week.

I really dislike this time of year. Summer is so boring.

Tuesday, June 16, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 6/16/15 Edition


Now we're getting to the point of summer where I'm probably going to have to start repeating a lot more shows to fill up this list. Hopefully there are a ton of premieres next month.


Tuesday, June 9, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 6/9/15 Edition


Sometimes these lists just come together. There's no theme or anything. Just a bunch of shows on a list.

Tuesday, June 2, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 6/2/15 Edition


I was able to find 10 shows to fill this list up with relative ease. I can't say the same for next week because there won't be as many premieres or finales.

Cable Show Scorecard: May 2015


I wasn't able to post this list last month. I had the list ready but things came up and by the time I was able to get around to it, half of this month was already gone. I didn't carry over the renewals from last month because a lot of those shows had premiere dates set for this month and I didn't want to confuse anyone into thinking those renewals were for brand new seasons. This list is really light on renewals with only a few networks making decisions.

Holidays....can't stand them. They're so boring and I always get confused.

10 Ratings Blurbs: 5/19/15 Edition


I haven't had the chance to post anything in 2 weeks and I won't go back and make old posts because the ratings weren't all that impressive for anything. Since the last week had a bunch of broadcast finales, that's what this list features.

Tuesday, April 28, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 4/28/15 Edition


I am not ashamed to admit this list really came together within the last hour because I had no idea what to put on the list this week outside of 4-5 shows.

Tuesday, April 21, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 4/21/15 Edition


This is basically an all-cable list this week. I'm trying to stay away from broadcast shows because the finales are coming up in a couple of weeks and there isn't much to say about those shows.

Tuesday, April 14, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 4/14/15 Edition


The story of the week is basically the return of Game of Thrones. Everything else just seems so irrelevant.

VH1 Ratings: 2014


The beginning of the new year of course means the beginning of a new post. While the 2013 list has yet to be completed (It will be once the five new episodes for Black Ink Crew conclude for the season) that doesn't mean I should wait to begin the new list. As I have been doing with last year's list, I will update it after I see numbers for these shows which typically will occur twice per week but definitely on Tuesdays. Also following last year's format, I will make notes where they are necessary and all specials will go at the bottom of the post [Final Update: 4/14/15].

Early April is a strange time for shows. The Broadcast networks are still limping along and trying to stay strong for another month while the cable networks are shifting into their spring schedules.

10 Ratings Blurbs: 3/31/15 Edition


It wasn't very hard filling up this list this week. There were a few premieres but many more finales.

Cable Show Scorecard: March 2015


We're right at the beginning of upfront season. A lot of these renewals actually came in yesterday and there may be a few more that trickle in today. The bulk of renewals will come next month as more cable networks do their presentations.

Tuesday, March 24, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 3/24/15 Edition


Thankfully the list isn't full of mostly low-rated shows like last week.

Tuesday, March 17, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 3/17/15 Edition


This is partially by circumstance and partially intentional but 7 of the 10 shows on this list feature shows that have gotten below a million viewers this past week.

Tuesday, March 10, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 3/10/15 Edition


I suppose you could say this week is about the future because some of these shows have very clear fates and others are quite uncertain.

Tuesday, March 3, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 3/3/15 Edition


I think I did well for myself this week. There were a lot of premieres, finales and renewal news around to keep from from having to talk about The Walking Dead.

Cable Show Scorecard: February 2015



This was a fairly slow month up until the last couple of days. A lot of these renewals and extra episode orders were actually announced yesterday.

This week was a slow one. Outside of Empire, there wasn't much to talk about. Next week should be a little more active with quite a few season finales lined up.

This is here much later than usual but these things cannot be helped.

This was an active week. There's a series premiere, a series finale, three recently renewed shows and of course The Walking Dead to grace the list.

Tuesday, February 3, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 2/3/15 Edition


Network heads are not ready to see The Walking Dead return because it will really emphasize how sorry the ratings for their shows look at this point in the season. I'm ready for it to return because it's damn sad when not one show from my pool of cable shows that I use to make this list can attract 3 million viewers per week.

Saturday, January 31, 2015

Cable Show Scorecard: January 2015


Quite a few renewals this month and as promised I cleaned up a lot of those shows that have been straggling on the list for months. Perhaps only one of them may not be truly canceled though its chances for returning dwindle with each passing month but the rest probably should have been updated months ago and I gave networks the benefit of the doubt because the holiday season tends to be slow. That being said, upfronts will be rolling around in a few months and those are always packed with renewals of more recent shows.

Tuesday, January 27, 2015

10 Ratings Blurbs: 1/27/15 Edition


A lot of CW shows in here mostly because I'll try to avoid talking about them for the rest of the season unless I absolutely need something as filler.
