Stood ZERO Chance


Seriously? Come on NBC! You gave this show absolutely no chance. First off the audience is mainly male and you put it up against Monday Night Football, Baseball Playoffs and Monday Night RAW! Seriously, you think anyone in New York watched this over the Yankees? And as the others mentioned it was also up against Hawaii Five-O and Castle. This show had ZERO chance. Shame on you NBC, no wonder why your network is a loser.

wildpeace10, I'm curious...doesn't it take some effort to quote people the way you do it? I mean, lots of dashes and all. You sure love those dashes.And to the OP: Yeah, pretty much. PTC was also pretty adamant against the show.

So an NBC exec claims that they're going to give the show a chance, and then yank it days later...that kind of action isn't one that would inspire viewers to tune in._____~ I close my eyes lost in a memoryJust like a candle in the wind ~

Wildpeace, my point was NO ONE in New York was going to watch this instead of the Yankees. Isn't NY the largest Media Market? Doesn't help that the show is one males would watch and it goes up against MNF and RAW. The show was never supposed to succeed. If you want to succeed you put a show females would watch against these Male dominated competition.

Mondays at 10p has always been a horrible timeslot for NBC, probably worse than putting it on Friday.

Men were not the target? I think that is part of the problem. What was supposed to be the target? I would imagine 80% of the women would not watch just because this was about Playboy. And the men were all watching sports. SO who is left 20% of the women and gays?

check the imdb voting demographic

women rated it higher than men.
other than one attractive male, the show is mostly female characters and deals with female troubles, with a female main character.
