Hey TV followers, this is The Gladiator here posting my predictions for the Primetime Premieres for Monday 9/21. Comment on my predictions and tell me your predictions!
ABC:
ABC:
Dancing
– 1.7-2.0
Last week, the show premiered weak and with the other networks
premiering this week, I see Dancing stumbling as well as Castle!
Castle-
1.4-1.6
Ended with a 1.4 for its season finale, I see Castle premiering at
a 1.6 best. It usually never beats DWTS and is usually down about 5-20%
from its Lead-in
CBS:
TBBT- 4.4-4.8
Still a top contender, but year to year the series has been
dropping. On Monday last year, the one hour season premiered with an
average of a 5.45 up from it 4.92 season finale back in May of 2014. The
recent season finale ended at a 3.7 demo. TBBT isn’t making it back up in
the 5.0 this season based on last years performance however, Today, shows that
perform in the 3.0 are great and TBBT is renewed for 2 more seasons so I expect
it to do well this year and still end the year off in the top 10
Life of Pieces – 2.7-3.1
CBS tradition - premieres well after TBBT lead-in, but just like
The Miller and The Odd Couple won’t do well w/o it’s lead!
Scorpion
– 2.2-2.5
Ended last season with a 2.2 could stay steady, or could boost
since it’s premiere week. IDT it will have a big boost to in the upper
2.0’s because of the other network’s shows and TBBT isn’t an hour premiere this
year.
NCIS: LA
– 1.4-1.7
Ended at a 1.4 from its season finale, don’t see it reaching a 2.0
for its premiere.
NBC:
The Voice - 3.4-3.8
Based on previous year, IDT The Voice will crack a 4.0. In 2014,
it premiered with a 4.1, 2013 Premiered with a 5.1 and year to year, it’s
dropped about 20% so I expect a 15-20% drop!
Blindspot –
2.8-3.0
Simple, The Voice lead-in should boost the show’s ratings up, but
will it be a series success like The Blacklist or will it fall like the
majority of NBC’s series from last season?
FOX:
Gotham – Less than 2.0
Only because it ended with a 1.7 and I doubt it will rise up from
the season finale. I also think that this show will join the FOX Monday
tradition and S2 will tank and be under 2.0 this year.
Previous Monday shows
Sleepy Hollow - S1 3.5 v.s S2 2.0
The Following - S1 3.2 v.s. S2 2.0)
Minority Report – 2.2-2.5
I’m keeping it safe and saying that M.R. will start off fare/solid
because I feel like this show should perform well, but there has been mixed
reviews and many people some love it, like it, or even hate it. Since the
series is based on the movie that starred Tom Cruise and it’s Sci-Fi, it should
do well for it’s premiere; but it could totally bump because of a weak lead-in
from Gotham and it’s competing with The Voice which gains viewer on the second
hour and also it’s against CBS’ Scorpion. Or, once again with the FOX
tradition, it could do well during S1 and could possibly make it in the upper
2’s or close to the 3.0 or greater.
The CW:
Penn & Teller: Fool Us – 0.5
Easy a steady show that has never been below a 0.5 even with stiff
competition.
Whose’s Line – 0.4-0.5
It’s usually below or sometimes even with Fool Us last week’s 0.3
was a fluke.
Significant Mother - 0.2 no further detail.
Well thank you gladiator, what about person of interest and NCIS (the real deal)
ReplyDeletePerson of Interest won't return until 2016! Person of Interest ended its fourth season with a 1.1 series low down from its previous episode that received a 1.4! Season 5 could be the last season of Person of Interest since they've reduced the 5th season to 13 episodes. Other shows on CBS have been pulling worst rating like The Good Wife and H-5-O! The difference is these shows are CBS owned production and are beneficial to the network (cheaper to produce) whereas Person of Interest is owned by W.B. and is expensive than the other two.
DeleteNCIS will do fine and will last for another season. The question its spin-off seasons NCIS: LA or NCIS: New Orleans see another?
