Re: pick-ups/cancellations announced

  • I am shocked that Up All Night got picked up for a full season. I loved the premise/idea but had to stop watching it because I was so so so bored.

  • Lurker here: dang I like plb club! I do hate charlies angels wish that'd get cancelled. H loves it tho. Ugh
  • I like Whitney! LOL I think I am the only one!

     

     

  • Man, I really liked Playboy Club. They don't even gives shows a chance.
  • playboy club had a terrible time slot. too new a show to have to compete with a zillion other popular shows airing monday night.

  • I was enjoying Playboy Club. I don't think they picked a good day and time slot for it though. Going up against Castle and Hawaii Five-O was not a good idea.

    This... Give new shows a chance to get the story line together. Intakes a few episodes for any show to get things going. Geez let the new shows have a chance. :-/

    How the heck is Whitney being picked up?! I mean is she related to a higher up or something? Geez! 

  • Ratings speak louder than anything.  The demo that is watching The Sing-Off isn't one that is going to stick around for a show about bunnies, at least for the most part.  It did get a crappy time slot.  Whitney might be crappy (don't know, haven't watched it), but it must be getting decent ratings to get the full season pickup already.

    Surprised nothing got cancelled after 1 episode this year.

  • I think Whitney is pretty funny. I like her as a comedian though so maybe that helps?

    This is The Sing-Off's first full season, it's previously only been on for 3 weeks right before Christmas.

    I'm surprised the Playboy Club has been cancelled already. I'm pretty sure Whitney cut a deal with the network, which is why it will survive this season. My guess is that it probably had something to do with the development/writing of new shows and/or her other show, Two Broke Girls. She has her hand in a lot over there at NBC. That's pretty much the only explanation I can come up with for that.

  • Boo, out of those 4 the only one I watch is Playboy Club. Have only watched the 1st episode so far, next 2 are still on my DVR. Might as well delete them and not bother.

  • I like the Playboy Club but had a feeling it would be cancelled. Oh well. :(

    ETA: Anyone know if the cancellation is immediate? Trying to decide if I should watch last night's episode, keep the setting for future shows, etc. 

  • they have been promoing the HELLLLLL out of whitney, so i'm not surprised they're biting the bullet and just doing a whole season. saves face.

    It is. Prime Suspect repeats are filling its spot until the end of October when Rock Center with Brian Williams takes over.

  • I really liked Whitney!

    People either love it or hate it! I love it!

     

  • I personally can't stand New Girl. The whole "I'm quirky and live with three guys ?i don't know" is annoying. I watched the pilot, and never watched again. I don't get why it's so popular.

    Thank you! Well, my DVR is very very full so I will survive this. LOL

  • looks like I wasn't the only one that liked The Playboy Club.

    It's a shame that it didn't get to stick around longer.

  • I think sitcoms are a strange breed.  Some are slam dunks, like Friends.  But I think most are love them or hate them.  As long as they develop a decent following they can stick around for awhile even if the critics hate them.  Personally cannot stand 2 Broke Girls, The New Girl, Whitney, and Two and a Half Men.  Find them unbearable. 

    I think they are the hardest ones to predict if they will stick around.  Dramas cost more money to make, so it's easier to predict which ones will get canned based on critics reviews/ratings.

  • Some of those NBC comedies were probably picked up because NBC is having serious problems right now.  They need some things to keep going after The Office tanks, which it probably will do in the next couple of years.  And, sadly, nobody's watching Community or Parks & Recreation.
