Read Betty Gilpin’s Eulogy for GLOW, “the Best Job I’ll Ever Have”
“Apparently numbers-wise, GLOW really only appealed to men in kimonos and women in cat hair, who, as far as I’m concerned, are the beating heart of the arts,” writes the three-time Emmy nominee.

Central Florida's God is dead and COVID killed it
‘On Becoming A God In Central Florida’ Canceled By Showtime, Won’t Proceed With Season 2 Due To COVID
EXCLUSIVE: Showtime has reversed its Season 2 pickup decision for On Becoming a God in Central Florida, starring Kirsten Dunst. Originally renewed more than a year ago, in September 2019, filming on the series’ second season was delayed by the coronavirus pandemic, which halted all production in...

nooooooooooooo
If the threadmark for that announcement isn't titled "Central Florida's God is dead and COVID killed it", I will be mighty disappointed.
EDIT: And here I am, not disappointed. It's not often you get a chance to make a really good silly Nietzsche reference. :)

You'd have to keep actors and certain crew on a contract, while also not paying them. It's standard practice to release talent from contracts if you cannot continue production or won't pay them. Paying people with no output to keep them in their contracts instead of just bailing on the production isn't cost-effective.
You know, given that they had already paid for the casts, I'm surprised they didn't try to either go for the audio drama/podcast route or something since I assume locking down the cast is the biggest cost. Well, I guess assuming they had scripts anyway.

I've been wanting to watch this. One of the few CW shows I've missed the first time around (I gambled it wouldn't make it past season 1 - I was wrong).
But now can't find it anywhere to watch the earlier seasons for free on streaming services I have. (Netflix, Amazon, CBS All-Access, Hulu, Disney+).
If anyone has any suggestions, much appreciated. Don't want to watch it via CW's streaming, which I think is CW Seed, because want to watch on TV (not computer).
Wednesday night's ratings. Full and final ratings for last night's Vice Presidential debate will be out later today, but here is a taste of how it did on the four major networks:
ABC won the night with an average of 8.29 million viewers.
NBC came in second with an average of 5.61 million viewers.
CBS came in third with an average of 4.61 million viewers.
Fox came in fourth with an average of 3.95 million viewers.
So the grand total from all four major networks was 22.46 million viewers. This is a bit better from the Vice Presidential debate in 2016 where the total from the four major networks then was 21.8 million viewers. Keep in mind, though, that between 2016 and now, a lot more people cut cable and watch streaming, so we'll see what streaming numbers when those come in. (Or IF they come in, since I never saw them for the first Presidential debate last week...)

Streaming Neilson's are out. The Boys dropped in its second week, although there was only 1 new episode that week as opposed to 3.

Glad to have a renewal amidst all the crappy cancellations. Based Apple.
Position was down by one but viewing metrics were up. Seems like Away had a big jump week on week which meant it displaced The Boys.Streaming Neilson's are out. The Boys dropped in its second week, although there was only 1 new episode that week as opposed to 3.
I guess Away is one of those shows that did better the longer it was on Netflix
Quick question: I've picked up Castle Rock again. Finished the first season yesterday which was overall very good with a somewhat dud of an ending. I'm a couple of episodes into season 2 now and it's quite good shit thus far. I also have to say that the cinematography of everything so far is stupendous, really beautiful show compared to a lot of other stuff.
Anyway, is it known if a season 3 is planned for it?

Seems that way but not sure if I can trust Neilson as the sole metric on that (although we don't really have to many other ways to gauge success)
While it hasn't been officially cancelled the fact that it's from an outside studio (Warners) and the showrunners have already moved on to the Shining prequel show on HBO Max (Overlook Hotel, again for Bad Robot) all signs point to no more Castle Rock sadly.
It was always 12 episodes that they ended up splitting into 2 chunks.
Im just glad Netflix didn't try to milk it till Spring or something.
Man if Netflix could just drop 6 of these every 3 or 4 months that would be a perfect model for it imo.
How many shows got their renewals reversed in 2020?
Probably more than half a dozen right now?
GLOW cancelation really sucks.
I know the actors and crew will probably be onto something new by then probably making it near impossible to get made, but it would still be nice if it was a possibility.
Then again it might end up like Arrested Development season 4 where barely any of the main cast were in the same scenes together (which was where most of the originals humor came from IMO).
I'm still mad about Drunk History ending, especially with the cancelation being more about Comedy Central going in another direction than specifically Covid related.
That one would be such an easy show to do with practically any actors, the cheapest possible sets, costumes, effects, or even just do the skits animated or something. Show should have gone on for 10+ seasons. :(

Problem is that if you don't perform well within two weeks of premiere, you're already cancelled.
Looks like Amazon is doing the "3 episode premiere, 1 week thereafter" release schedule for The Expanse as well.

Not surprising, considering the success they have had with The Boys, along with the fact they don't put out nearly as much content as Netflix does.
100%. Although I find HBO Max's start with 3 and then release 2 weekly after that to be interesting too.Looks like Amazon is doing the "3 episode premiere, 1 week thereafter" release schedule for The Expanse as well.

Saw Lesley Goldberg retweet this.
I do not buy this at all, Netflix has opened me up to so many female creators , minority group creators in general I never would have encountered otherwise. Some people really want Netflix to burn don't they.
How many of those did they promote? That's my biggest issue with Netflix. If I was a casual viewer I'd have no idea about what's new. We'll see how it changes with only 1 head for TV now.
With this trend continuing it looks like Netflix might be the sole streaming service to continue with the 'binge' release model.
Oh if the argument is they don't promote the shows enough, that there is just floods and floods of content and all these voices get lost OK I'll hear that discussion. But they are giving those voices a chance and they are making projects with those voices

I'm leaving out a lot. Like a lotttttt. Era is not the barometer for what people watch on Netflix.
I can't tell you the number of posts that are, " Well, outside of stranger things, mind hunters , Narcos what does Netflix have?" Or posts of that nature. Absolutely ridiculous.
There is so, so much content. I'm not even touching foreign language content ( series, films) that are constantly being made that are full of proper representation of different sexualities, ethnicities
