2020-21 Season TV Cancellations/Pilots: Everything's Not Gonna Be Okay for Punky, Betty, Dickinson, or Sarah

Captjohnboyd · Oct 15, 2020

Anybody know what the hell is going on with Gangs of London on AMC plus? I subbed to this barren service expressly for this show and besides the first four episodes nothing has dropped in nearly ten days. What the flip kind of release schedule is this? I can't even find anything online about when they drop

Also, their episode numbering is for shit. The first "episode" is a two parter but instead of actually playing it as one episode they call it two. Fine. But then they precede to call the remaining episodes "episode 103"
"Episode 2"

What kind of numbering is that lol

THR reported they began to pull out of primetime and produce only for streaming from now on.

That was sitcoms, not dramas.

Let me know if the image still doesn't show up today. I tried something a little different.

Dammit. Well there goes my theory. I thought maybe posting the image from my computer instead of my iPhone would make a difference. It apparently does not. Oh well. I'll still provide the link every day then. Thank you for letting me know.

Weird, I can see it. On Safari for iPhone.

Fuzzy · Oct 15, 2020

I can see it everywhere. The people who can't see it has some privacy/security setting that's stopping it.

vypek · Oct 15, 2020

I can usually see it on my phone but today I cannot and I can't see it in any browser on my home PC at all. Usually it is just Firefox that has the issue. Its been going on for me for a while but I still appreciate the link and posting. Will have to check my work PC later

Pretty sure it's just that Show Buzz Daily has disabled other websites hotlinking to that image. Is there a reason you can't reupload it to Imgur and post here?

I didn't know they started doing that. That sucks. I'll still post the link every day though.

As for uploading it on Imgur, ugh. More work. Lol.

Just a theory and a suggestion! I don't know for sure.

I think most people here would also be perfectly fine with just a link.

I can see it directly linked from SBD. People who can't have a setting blocking it.

I saw it on my phone too.
But not on pc, weird.

Carthago Delenda Est · Oct 15, 2020

I can see it fine. Definitely user settings preventing this.

vypek · Oct 15, 2020

I'm more surprised that more people are suddenly experiencing this. I wonder if there is a setting a lot of us having in common or something about the devices we are using to access. I turned off all my extensions on Firefox on my home PC a couple weeks ago and still couldn't see it.

Did you try changing privacy/security settings?

Spectromixer · Oct 15, 2020

I don't use Chrome, but I just checked and its broken from Chrome on macOS. I use Safari and it works there.

Fuzzy said:

Yep. Tried fiddling around with them but there is a chance that I did not properly change them to what they needed to be. I was kind of messing around without really knowing what to change. I'll try to change more of it later and see what happens.

This article comes across as clickbait fear mongering. Sure, costs related to Covid are up significantly, but we hope one day we can begin to lower them. He brings up no evidence that the consumer appetite has changed, and the consumer appetite is why peak TV exists.

I wouldn't say it is fear mongering. Even if there is a reduction of shows from 500+ to maybe 400+, there is still a ton of content for any consumer's appetite. There is no reason for you to starve as a TV watcher today.

There has been effects already, I'm still :( about GLOW not being able to wrap up.

‘Bridgerton’: Netflix Unveils First Trailer For Shonda Rhimes’ Period Romance – Update

Netflix has unveiled the first trailer for Shonda Rhimes' period romance drama Bridgerton.

deadline.com

A romantic, scandalous and quick-witted series set in in the peak age of Regency London high society, Bridgerton follows Daphne Bridgerton (Phoebe Dynevor), the eldest daughter of a powerful family, as she puts herself out onto Regency London's highly competitive marriage market. Daphne hopes to follow her parents' footsteps and find true love, but as the number of potential suitors begins to dwindle, the young heiress is without options. However, despite her lack of success in the marriage market, Daphne meets the desirable but rebellious bachelor Duke of Hasting (Regé-Jean Page).

tvline.com

I want to see a resolution to the cliff-hanger but I'm way less interested in the series if Tiffany isn't there. That change they did partway through season 3 could be them writing off Tiffany and others but I think it would be a mistake. Season 2 was a step up from the first season due to how it had other stories for other characters and developed them. Having just Tracy's character being the entire story would be a step back.

Just saw that The Society on netflix was cancelled due to COVID. What a huge bummer. One of their more unique and intriguing shows.

I guess the joke changes from "Hello, Netflix, you're greenlit" to "Hello, Netflix, you're cancelled".

Thursday night's ratings:

Full and final ratings for last night's Presidential Town Halls will be out later today (including MSNBC and CNBC), but here is a taste of how it did on ABC and NBC:

Biden attracted an average of 12.23 million viewers for the entire two hour run on ABC, winning the entire night.
Trump attracted an average of 10.39 million viewers for his one hour run on NBC.

Biden also attracted almost 1 full point more in every sales demo rating demographic compared to Trump.
