I love The 100, and I'm open to at least giving this a shot. That being said, don't blow an episode of the final season on a fucking backdoor pilot. Good lord.

Final ratings for Wednesday night:
CBS's "SEAL Team" adjusted down 0.1.
Everything else stayed the same.

If it moves forward I would hope it doesn't involve any of the tribes from the show and instead is about survivors from a different part of the US.
I mean, if HBO wants to scrap Cinemax's original scripted line up, fine. I get it. It was ultimately a failed half hearted experiment - but at least keep Warrior and Jett (and maybe Gangs of London is that's not a mini-series. Oh yeah, and Tales from the Tour Bus!) going on HBO Max...
I don't hate the idea of a flashback episode showing the origins of the grounders, but an entire other show focusing on grounder politics? When The 100 itself has been primarily concerned with that for like 5 seasons now? idk
Cease & Desist
I knew there was a reason HBO dumped this on Mondays.
Zero surprise here. The second season was a big step down from the first.
Pfft, two of HBO's best shows this year aired on Mondays: Chernobyl and Gentleman Jack.
Agreed, but I don't think they'd dump something that they thought had the chance of being a breakout hit there.
It's on Monday so it doesn't air before BBC.
Anyways, I hope that the review isn't reflective of the actual show... I want it to be good.
Yeah I did not enjoy S2 for it... The direction S1 went in was good, but I dunno... just did not like S2...
So which show is featuring the crossover? Runaways or a special ep?
Sounds like it was primarily a ratings issue, though coming so soon after the big Marvel reorg, folks can read into it as they will.
I'm still a season behind on that too... Well, slowly catching up, thanks to all the cancellations/endings of 2019 :x So many shows removed from the Hulu queue over the months....
That's too bad even though I didn't watch it. I think they did their crossover with Runaways at least?
I figured with the long wait and Marvel restructuring their TV division that Cloak & Dagger might be a goner.
I really liked the show and felt it had a different feel than most comic book series. Not only in the way it was shot, but also in some of the issues it tackled. The focus on 2 characters for the most part, really let them build up Tandy and Tyrone and establish their connection.
Andre was a really good villain for Season 2 as well.

Kinda surprised to see a renewal so quickly, didn't see much discussion about it.
HBO Max needs to counter by bringing back Space Ghost Coast to Coast.
I like how this could be taken as a joke but it is actually true lmao
Wait that wasn't a joke? It's real?
I feel like they would've been better off using a known character like the muppets themselves.
Thursday night's ratings:
ABC's "Grey's Anatomy" and "How to Get Away with Murder" went up 0.1 from last week, while "A Million Little Things" went up 0.2.
CBS's "Young Sheldon" and "The Unicorn" also went up 0.1 from last week, although "Evil" went down 0.2. Good thing "Evil" was already renewed.
NBC's "Will & Grace" returned way down from its season 10 finale back in April. It's actually the least-watched episode of the entire series. Good thing it's the last one. But, to be fair, "Will & Grace" didn't get a lot of hype since it did replace "Sunnyside" last minute. It did do better than "Sunnyside" ever did though. "Law and Order: SVU" went up 0.1 from last week.
The CW's "Legacies" went down 0.1 from last week.

was a goofy episode of Evil
Also, feel like the quality of kid actors has declined, the end episode crying scene was cringe and bad.

They get paid for creating multiple shows, whether those shows get made or not.
Why? The network/streamer is betting on the creator's ideas for shows to be big enough hits that the deal pays for itself and then some. It's not like unproven people get overall deals. Pretty sure the network/streamer owns all the ideas even if they don't make the show during the deal and may return to the idea later.
Seems like a way to take control over a creator so others' can't have them for diversity of content and carriers.
Depends on the terms of the deal, but that's typically not true. If something doesn't get sold under the overall, the creator is usually free to take it elsewhere after the deal expires. Even if something IS sold (whether under an overall or just to a network), that work comes back to the creator after a few years if it was not produced.
That's absolutely what it is. That is why you see it happen both with big proven names and new showrunners who only have had one hit. It's ultimately a win-win though in most cases as under an overall the network/studio is basically obligated to develop/attempt to sell whatever you come up with (not to mention the individuals under the deal get paid the big bucks).
There's also a sort of laxer version of overall deals called first-look deals, which are basically the same but the creators, while under the deal, are allowed to try to sell projects to other places as well, after the place they have the deal with has first chance to say they want it or not.
A couple episodes of Will of Grace will air without Karen, perhaps due to a feud.
Final ratings for Thursday night:
NBC's "Law and Order: SVU" adjusted down 0.1.
Fox's "NFL Thursday Night Football" final rating is at 3.9, which is down 0.3 from last week, but it's football so it'll be perfectly fine.
Everything else stayed the same.

Unfortunate. I've suffered through 3 eps of Batwoman, and it's just so bad. Makes me want to go back and watch the first few eps of Arrow and Flash to see if they were just as bad.
