so happy to here about hiccups
ReplyDeleteHave you heard anything about the status of XIII: The Series? About its chances of being renewed?
ReplyDeleteno decision yet french ratings seem good, Canadian ratings bad
ReplyDeleteEndgame viewers are confounding. The show has been scraping by since mid-season with average ratings that were at or below 120K and now that the show is canceled the ratings jump up significantly. If these people would of just stuck around the show probably would of been renewed.
ReplyDeleteEndgame is a smarter show than the "yet another cop show" King so it's not surprising that it takes longer for people to get into it. It's too bad Showcase/Global isn't going to give it a chance to build its audience. 9 airings isn't that much time; it took shows like MASH even longer to build their audience.
ReplyDeleteMost of these people have stuck around from the beginning. Unfortunately the same can't be said for the handful of people that have a Nielsens box at home - the only people networks seems to care about. :(
ReplyDeleteEndgame ratings have not only gone up but support from the show is now visible through the Save Endgame campaign and on newspapers from all over Canada thanks for positive comments by great journalists. See for yourself at: www.saveendgame.com
