This list is loaded with nothing but premieres and finales. Some of these numbers met expectations and others missed the mark a little bit.

This is a pretty muted week with not much news going on. With that being said I'll be the first to admit that this week's post is pretty much a filler post with the majority of shows experiencing depressed ratings.

I can't say there's a theme to this week's list though I did take this opportunity to assess the state of VH1's Thursday night lineup.

I had some things get in the way that kept me from posting this a few days ago but it's here now. July was a fairly standard month on the cable front with an average number of renewals.

This is a pretty varied list this week. There's a decent share of premiere and finale news here, there's some renewal news here and there are a couple of specials on the list as well.

There are a ton of premieres this week and most of them are from VH1. I can't say the numbers are too promising for the majority of those shows.

July is turning out to be a very slow news month. Nothing really notable on the cable show front, the broadcast shows aren't exactly lighting up things and cable networks are putting all their stock on shows that have yet to premiere.
