Wow, the ratings were so low that they all disappeared!
Unless Sleepy Hollow completely tanks when competition comes, FOX has another drama hit on their hands along with The Following. I do think SH will do well (mid 2.0′s) when competition comes next week because the show is Horror/along with SyFy elements. And those fans tend o be the most loyal.
Is their any chance of Siberia getting Renewed??
Poor Poor Siberia..
Quality wise, its vastly superior to Under the Dome.. Sad.
Excellent for DWTS.
Still good for DWTS! <3
I’ve only seen a few SH haters, I think SH is going to continue doing good in the weeks to come.
Most watched episode of UTD since the premiere.
I think Bones will get renewed for a 10th and final season of 24 episodes. Bones still gets good ratings for a show going on 9 seasons, and FOX always uses Bones to kick start other dramas.
So with its season finale Under the Dome barely edges out The Following as the best-rated new show since September.
I wonder if this season will bring out more successes than a whopping 2.
I bet the cat food companies were quite happy with the DWTS premiere.
That DWTS rating right there, when it is still away from the voice, is the reason why I will keep saying for the whole season how stupid ABC is for not moving it to sundays away from the voice. It is such an obvious solution to their two biggest problems at once, it is crazy that they refuse to recognise it.
On another news, go Sleepy Hollow, excellent job. I think I will break my rule and watch it right away because I am curious about it and it got itself some cushion. FOX will have a puzzling decision on their hands soon when it has to move one of Bones/Sleepy Hollow to Fridays while The X-Factor has lower ratings for three hours a week. I wish they would just wise up and premiere Almost Human Wednesdays at 9 thereby reducing The X-Factor hours.
Under the Dome also finished very strong, I am so happy with it. I liked the finale. Last week was a bit better maybe, but this episode was also very good. I didn’t necessarily enjoy the last 2 minutes as cliffhanger, but everything else was great. I am curious to see the effects it has on next week’s summer programming.
the only sensible solution is to replace competition shows with real tv shows
Good start for DWTS; The Voice may impact it, but it could hold up better than it did last season. We’ll see.
Excellent for Sleepy Hollow.
Bones steady, shouldn’t be moved to fridays.
Under the Dome should have stayed with: Limited Series.
I think FOX should be a risk-taker and move X-Factor to Thursday and Firday nights. Wednesdays should have Bones and Glee together. Dads should move to Fridays if it tanks and let Raising Hope having the 8:00 Tuesday Hour.

Presumably they can’t move it to Sundays because of a conflict with the UK version of the show (some of the judges do both?).
@Ultima,
I am aware of that, but I think there is a very solution to that seeing as there is no spring edition in the UK from what I got (I admit my source was wikipedia but still).
Just do The Bachelor in the fall, reality filler in the winter (which is their plan for sundays this year anyway, as it should be IMO), and DWTS in the spring. I think that would solve it. Do you see anything wrong with it?
Also @Ultima,
Do you think there is any possibility that FOX replaces one of the X-Factor hours by Almost Human, effectively keeping Bones, Sleepy Hollow and Almost Human on the Monday-Thursday schedule?
