He's got Mindy Project as a sure thing.....I don't get that. 13 episodes and ratings that approach Univision?

they're not building to syndication at that rate.

In situations like that, I presume the show's streaming revenue is excellent. -- nm - David Nov 3, 09:09 8
- Yeah, I wonder what it's getting on Hulu and such, becuase the traditional metrics really stretch it; - Will Hunting Nov 3, 09:11 7
  - The other thing to consider is that four seasons means syndication, which incentivizes them to renew this year. - David Nov 3, 09:16 5
    - Wikipedia says "In recent years, the bare minimum of episodes for off-network syndication has been set at 81, with the ideal minimum now set at 88" - mara Nov 3, 09:23 1
      - Nikita was a recent one that only got 6 episodes in season 4, just to keep syndication potential. - David Nov 3, 09:26
    - 4 years of 22 episodes, right? They're going to come up short if they short the season, no? - Will Hunting Nov 3, 09:17 2
      - 80 episodes is what tvbythenumbers usually uses for syndication minimum -- nm - Beaker Nov 3, 09:22
      - These days, it's four seasons rather than 88 episodes. Cougar Town was a good example of a show that earned benefit of the doubt this way. - David Nov 3, 09:22
  - Yeah, looks like this season is 15 episodes. - kelly Nov 3, 09:14
she sleeping with someone high up? -- nm - Pippy Turkey Stuffer Nov 3, 09:06 3
- sexist.. -- nm - colin Nov 3, 09:09 2
  - I'd applaude the shit out of her for that. LOL. - Pippy Turkey Stuffer Nov 3, 09:12
  - Sitcomgate! It's about ethics on FOX! -- nm - Beryllium Nov 3, 09:11
