The Whole Truth (ABC) also down to a 1.3 on its way to likely cancellation."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

I'm going to continue to change the format into tomorrow because I failed to show how shows are performing against each other.
Though shows are dropping, their viewership is still up and winning time slots - something that isn't absolutely clear by just looking at the numbers."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied.

Here's a question:
Generally, what share is considered a warning sign/signal that a series is in danger of being canceled?Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

This helps a lot if you want to know if your show is in danger:

Great idea for a thread whoever wrote the OP.
Really enjoyed the first two episodes of Hawaii Five-0, hope the ratings don't dip to low. Scott Caan is awesome.
NBC's Thursday is getting hit pretty hard, but its NBC, so I'm not to worried about those shows. 30 Rock is one of my favorite shows, its a shame more people don't watch it.Comment

When I update today, you'll see what I think (or hope) will end up being the best way to show this stuff."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied.

Really hope that Hawaii five-0 makes it. I know it is in a tough time slot being up against Monday night football. However at least here in Hawaii, the show starts at 9 pm local time way after mnf ends (Monday night football shows at 2 pm local time). And Grace Park is hot!Comment
