What have the dvr ratings for SCC been?
It seems so unlikely that Fox would pick up something that's regularly pulling in an audience of less than 10 million. (It's not the CW!)
I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

I think that his attachment is based on her constancy as much as anything else. She will be there for him, always. And she's hot. Plus, there's an intimacy based on their past/future relationship, like when she said "it's not the first time we've done this"

I thought anything over about 7 million was considered a hit these days? Last year Brothers & Sisters was pulling in about 12-13 million viewers on Sunday nights and the execs were doing cartwheels.

An 8% share isn't to be sniffed at (which is what SCC has). I think that was Drives' target actually, from memory.

I thought that Prison Break was said to be in decline when it couldn't break 10 million.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
How big a budget does SCC have (compared to the norm)?

The license fee for SCC hasn't been disclosed on pickup, which is.. interesting. It does have, like, 18 producers on payroll. That said, it's apparently not THAT expensive a show, according to the showrunner.
The ratings very strongly map with Jericho. I just plotted it. Which, admittedly, I hadn't realised. It was a mistake to bring Jericho back; it's tanking badly.

I can't imagine it's cheap given how much shit blows up.
Although thinking about it that way, the pool shot might have been tricky to set up but they also avoided having to squib everybody up.

But I am loving season 2 of Jericho.

This article is very positive about SCC's return. It says it's been getting ratings comprable to 24. I didn't know that - it seems that I've mostly been reading negative things about the ratings.
