Thank you Jacki for your analysis ... I trust you more than the bear!!! .... Just wondered how the hiatus will play in? .... We have had lots of trending sessions and our core fan base is trying but 3 weeks is sooooo long. The repeats they scheduled were not the best (well at least for me) .... I would like to think that the increased social media presence of the writers and producers , not to mention a few more spoiler clips have helped ... add to that the international presence (most of which is not metered) .... does matter! .... sincerely, ...... kinda worried yet faithfully optimistic, summer

thanks for the play by play jacki! No problem, oa! Glad you guys like my posts. TVbythenumbers is a great site for getting info on shows, but the Bear isn't infallible and he's been pretty slow on CW predictions. Took the Bear way too long to call that 90210 was a goner, imo. Anyway I just don't want Beasties to get discouraged because one site says Toss-Up, another says Likely Cancelled, another says it's good to go... it gets confusing & frustrating!

I have no clue why they chose those. I'm jealous that other people got to see "Bridesmaid Up." I wish they'd repeated that! But whatever, I will just grumble at the TPTB @ CW Scheduling for choosing the most frustrating eps to repeat. You know it's always rough on shows when they have to come back after a big break, but I have faith in the BATB fanbase and the promo for next episode is decent. I'm hoping we come back as strong as we did in January. *fingers crossed* However we do have to contend with the fact that DST has kicked in... that could cause a ratings slump. If we get 0.6 we're awesome, but I'd love to see us get back to 0.7.

^Fingers crossed!
Ideally, I'd like to see batb get a full season...than the 13 eps first. Before you know it, those eps would've ended and then it's waiting for decision time sooner rather than later again *sigh*
If batb were to get the 13 eps, when would you know if it's extended/not? So, I'm guessing season 2 starts sept/oct, the 13 eps may end mid february? So they'll put a hiatus then...and when do you think they would finish season 2? Or probably they would just end season 2 there....Make sep/oct a new beginning for season 3 if it continues? Yeah, I know I'm thinking ahead, still waiting on season 2 but I'm curious anyways lol...
I do have the same feeling with how ratings are atm we may likely get the 13 eps....but that can change, depending on ratings, etc for the weeks to come. It sounds like the international sales may go in our favour, more than the ratings?

Ratings is key! But the fact that the show is making money for them overseas is also a good sign...Many shows do not get picked up overseas. So maybe that and the fact that the fan base seems to get bigger it might help get the second season. I don't think it will be 13 episodes...I believe we'll get all 22 in one shot!
Wishful thinking?? Nope I'm optimistic!

There are a lot of overseas countries showing BATB right now (Canada, France, UK, Norway, South Africa, New Zealand, India, Brazil, etc...I'm sure I'm missing lots!)...or going to show them in the summer. I know that one channel in the UK has done a three year deal with them (link was posted previously). How can they do that without more than one season?
Is it common to order up a 13 episode second season? I would prefer to get 22 eps in one shot. How does HOD do overseas...? I can't see that being as profitable/lucrative overseas. I wouldn't imagine it has the universal appeal of BATB.

Hey savana, I'm gonna watch via CW app!! so i help too!! I think we have a 0.3 ratings. Don't think that we suddenly do better. Last thursday we had a 0.3. I know the though love was the best ep so far but i don't know...I think it won't be higher. Hopefully will get to 2 M viewers this thursday...we did our best.

Clearly not happy with .2 but Tough Love did just run 2 and a half weeks ago. Not everyone that watches the show is a beastie. It is only because I want a season 2 that I rewatched the show live. If it were a regular show I watched I would not tune into a repeat that soon after seeing. My hope is that
is right and we gained some new fans for the show that will tune in and help get higher ratings on Thursday. We have a good promo so I am hopeful we will do a 0.6 at least.

Damn, was hoping for better numbers for Tuesday night's eppy. At the same time, I agree that because they just showed that one a couple weeks ago...there was a lot of reason for some people to tune out. I'm hoping that we get some good ratings for this Thursday's episode...HOD looks very likely to be renewed and it may be a race between TCD and BATB. With another 2 week hiatus on the way at the beginning of April, I hope that doesn't ruin the momentum of the show either. We will see.
