2020-21 Season TV Cancellations/Pilots: Everything's Not Gonna Be Okay for Punky, Betty, Dickinson, or Sarah
- Thread starter mreddie
- Start date
- Entertainment OT
The switch to comedic elements was effortless and only served to underscore how amazing these writers are. Winslet is killing it and I'm hanging on every mundane element because it feels so genuine. Shout out to Evan Peters. His role as the happy foil is working out great. He does look pretty gaunt though. Wonder if that's him aging or if it was for another role. Either way, loving this series

Of course it's not going to affect it being renewed, but a little disconcerting on how 911: Lone Star has dropped slowly somewhat consistently this season. I think this is the first. .7 this season.
Again, I am certain it will be renewed, but I just it to be one of the exceptions and not be the standard slow (or faster) drop in ratings shows as the seasons go on.
Yeah, you've got nothing to worry about with 911: Lone Star. It's one of the better performing shows on Fox overall.

Yes, I agree it is now. I just am looking long-term. I want Lone Star (and original 911) to be an exception to most shows where the ratings aren't going to slowly drop from season to season, they they will remain strong. Similar to how NCIS has been a rock.

Jetsons prequel set 40 years earlier.... also known as present day.
Maybe a bit old, but good to see nonetheless. Danny McBride is 3 for 3 with HBO comedies imo.
It took only 20 years to go from Stone age to bronze age huh. Maybe there is something to this 6000-year-old Earth to begin with.‘The Flintstones’ Adult Animated Comedy Sequel Series ‘Bedrock’ From Elizabeth Banks In Works At Fox

Oh yes!! I'm looking forward to this so much! Season 1 was amazing!
I really liked season 1, so I'm excited for a new season.
Netflix having the lowest churn rate isn't surprising. HBO Max having a higher churn rate than CBS All Access (now Paramount+) is. Wonder if it is due to the higher price.

I would give Paramount+ a couple weeks. I'm currently under the 99C for a month sub of it under Prime. Since it's still 'new' and these offers haven't ended for everyone yet, I would expect that number to grow a lot more fairly soon.

That could be the case with the data being taken from the end of 2020 it looks like. HBO Max really seems to be hitting its stride in 2021.
What I'll be really curious on, is what HBO will look like next year when their day-1 movie deal ends. Will there be enough content on there for people to keep the subscription up? Maybe they will occasionally do similar deals next year with some smaller movies?

Streaming Giants’ Next Worry: A Subscriber Churn Uptick

Correct me if I'm wrong but there wasn't any major Star Trek content in 4th quarter 2020 was there? I suspect that CBS/Paramount sees a lot of churn as soon as a major ST show ends and the rest of the subs are just people in it for the long haul.
They're banking on their big upcoming genre series like House of the Dragon and Green Lantern bringing in people and keeping those subscriptions up.
Ah. Well that might actually explain it then- that spanned the entire fourth quarter so the churn probably hit harder come Jan/Feb.
The number/percentage of people leaving the service in this case. During the specified time period.
The lower the better. If a churn rate is high it means that a lot of people are leaving the service. Lower churn is better retention to the service. I'm sure its more complicated than this but companies want lower churn since it would mean they make more money.
If you need evidence of Era being it's own little bubble then look no further than any Netflix thread here.
Yeah. And the fact that they are very slow to release new stuff (compared to let's say, Netflix or HBO Max) probably doesn't help. I'm not sure this metric is very important for Apple right now, though.
Yay! Betty was a definite sleeper hit of the post-covid world.
If Era allowed recs, I would rec this so hard.

NBC needs to get its sports content onto Peacock fast, put nascar up there and I'll be there
Really curious to see if (and how high) Handmaid's Tale will chart on Nielsen's streaming list this season. The cultural zeitgeist has moved on but it seems like it's still Hulu's biggest series...?
Good point. It does seem like they aren't pumping out the number of releases like other people but they probably are fine at the moment and for a while as they build their catalog
Pretty much. I won't argue with people that say their overall content/quality ratio heavily favors quality but, if you're not interested in what they're offering, there's literally no reason for you to stay subscribed. I understand that probably lowers the cost significantly for Apple since they aren't paying any licensing costs but... it probably means they're going to have perpetually-high churn rates.
Adding to this, many subscriptions are won by buying Apple products. Most don't see a reason to renew after that though.
Didn't Apple TV launch in 4Q '19? A big part of that churn might be the super cheap (or free?) annual subscriptions for buying a new iphone running out.
I checked once and the only things I was even interested in was an exclusive movie and doc.... There was nothing else there (and just checked yesterday and my 3-month trial code I had expired, darn :/)
It's honestly really surprising that Apple hasn't made a play for like MGM or something just for their back catalog...
Given that Apple forces you to cancel when your subscription is about to renew or you lose the free trial, I'm surprised there aren't more people who just forget and let it auto renew.
