User blog:Webly/Primetime TV Cancellation Watch- Issue 5: This Year in General

Credit goes to TV By the Numbers for giving me this idea.

This list only includes shows from the five primetime channels: CBS, ABC, Fox, NBC, and The CW.

Today, I'll be talking about this year in general. Pretty much because I don't have many ideas so PLEASE REQUEST. As technology increases, TV will lose more and more viewers to On Demand, DVR, and Netflix. Anyways, this year seems to be a decrease in viewers and most networks aren't really relying on new shows but shows that have been successful for years like American Idol. At this time, many networks are still seeing how February sweeps are doing and usually February sweeps fail. This week my favorite show, Parenthood as you should know, ended it's third season. It was an epic season finale but you probably wouldn't of enjoyed it as much if you hadn't been waiting the last three seasons for Jasmine and Crosby to get together and then randomly get married... Parenthood was a February sweep much. A new drama started airing yesterday, Awake, very cool plot but from what I've heard it's a show that should've been a TV movie. However, any show has a chance to redeem itself for example one of the biggest redemptions possibly in TV history, House season one where one episode had 6 million then the next had 12 million. This year has been crazy competitions have arised like Terra Nova vs. Alcatraz and Napoleon Dynamite vs. Bob's Burgers.

I don't really have much to say this time so as I said earlier give me REQUESTS!!! I'll do anything as long as it's related to primetime.

CHANGES!!! This is the part you've all been waiting for! The changes with my long list that I have thought over throughout the week.

Renewed:

No shows were renewed this week.

Cancelled/Final Season:

No shows were cancelled this week.

Additions:


 * Awake was added to Bubble Watch after a mediocre first episode.

My Changes:


 * Are You There, Chelsea? is downgraded to likely cancellation. I'm surprised it hasn't been cancelled yet.
 * Ringer is downgraded to the Bubble, I looked into it more and saw that it's not really doing well.
 * Unforgettable is downgraded to Certain Cancellation, CBS does not have shows under a 2.0 rating.
 * Glee is upgraded to Certain Renewal, I like Glee and it doesn't seem like it'll go further downhill with next season. I made this decision because of it's critical acclaim.
 * Alcatraz moves to the Bubble :( . I'm really liking it but people just don't seem to be downright super excited over it.
 * Cougar Town is upgraded from Likely Cancellation, I shed a little light on it.
 * Rob moves down to Likely Cancellation. I love Rob Schneider, it just sucks that it's not a hit for CBS.
 * Supernatural is upgraded to Likely Renewal. After analyzing it more, it does seem like it is doing pretty good this year and fans are still raging for it in it's seventh season.
