I clicked it...

Oh well, it's had a great run. I'll stay with it until it gets axed.

From Hollywood Reporter:

Quote:

With a minute of "Dancing" overrun, "Castle" (11.9 million, 3.0) rose 7% from last week and performed in the vicinity of new CBS shows "Hawaii
Five-O" (12 million, 3.5), down 3% from last week...



Castle is doing really well. If the trend continues, it'll likely beat "Hawaii Five-O" next week.

But if Chuck is highly rated for NBC, it may stick around.

NBC itself isn't getting great ratings, so we need to keep that in perspective.

I feel confident that we will see thirteen episodes of Chuck this year. After that it will depend on what else NBC has in the pipeline, but their prospects aren't looking too good right now, so you never know.

Ok, I’m throwing in the “hate” towel.

Really, I haven’t been in tune with “Chuck” since the start of season 3. My better half just bought “3” and we are due to watch it at any time…… still, (imo) Chuck was better when he was a nerd and whining for the attention of Sarah so that she would have to fall in L,O,V,E with the guy.

Come on! If writers should know anything by now it’s that romantic friction= viewers wanting to watch what happens next.

Sarah & Chuck’s confibulation ( < is that a word?) and their registered attraction to one another came way to soon. There should have been at least another season an a half before Chuck had any inclination that Sarah was even interested. I don’t know a lot but I do know that.

If there are any network writers that visit these forums then heed my warning “ Romantic Tease” is one of the best tools at your disposal. Understand and use it well grasshopper…….

“ Castle” needs to take a look at itself as well. Nathan Fillion; get with Joss and ya’ll work something out with ABC……

Just giving a heads up, BP

Those Chuck ratings never hold water. Even the Network knows the Chuck fanbase is tech savy, and much more likely to DVR the show to watch later. When those numbers are factored in later in the week, Chuck always has better ratings.

Castle's audience demo is actually older than Hawaii 5-0, so the DVR ratings bump will also favor 5-0's younger audience over Castle's.

I'd given some thought to movin' off the edge -- not an ideal location -- thinkin' a place in the middle.

I agree, look at NBC's Thursday night line up, no one watches it. It's the lowest rated crap on TV but they've got nothing to replace it with. Their Thursday night line up was the gold standard when it came to sit-coms, now it's where comedy went to die. It's nothing but SNL has-beens.

I disagree. The "Romantic Tease" is so cliched it is not that interesting after a couple of seasons. Granted, a lot of times when they get a couple together too soon it might spell doom for a series, but that's only when they write the characters wrong for that portion of the story arc.

Everyone, even General Beckman, knew Sarah was in love with Chuck long before Chuck did. I'm looking forward to them establishing a permanent relationship in spite of everything that could drive them apart.
