Hopeful news for "I'm with Her"

[SapphireSkies]

Not altogether positive, but not entirely negative, either. Just hopeful.

Ain't It Cool News has reported that USA Today writer Gary Levin "revealed his annual list of what's coming back, what's not, and what may." According to Hercules, the author of the article at Ain't It Cool News, Mr. Levin is "never wrong," at least not to his memory.

Sounds like a lot of the new ones are dead-on-arrival. Some of those getting the axe just started in the past few weeks. These lists show me just how much TV I don't watch. Think I can count on exactly one hand the number of shows above that I make a point of tuning in.

So....

Let's hope.

Well....thats alot better than most of the news thats been coming out lately. I still have to believe that ABC will be smart enough to look at the pre American Idol ratings and relize they have a winning show here in any other time slot.

Well, I have heard rumors that "I'm With Her" will be moved to Fridays if it's renewed for a second season. So this is hopeful news.

If "I'm With Her is renewed and moved to another weekday, and "American Idol" airs opposite it again, that'll clinch it - Andre Agassi is a Fox mole! :eek:

The backend of the TGIF lineup is the ideal place for "I'm with Her". I could see ABC going "I'm with Her" at 9:00 and "Its All Relative" at 9:30.

I pretty much agree with that! :)

I've seen quite a few people around here saying that Friday night would be great and the ideal place for IWH. Now, I know it might just be me, but it seems like it may not be the best place for it. My friends and I are fans of the show, but on Friday nights, we go out. Like a lot of 20-35 yr olds do. Not stay home and watch sitcoms. I will still tape it and watch it, but that probably won't help ratings. I guess I'm saying that it feels like IWH attracts youngish, fun, cool people with a sense of humor. The kind of people that go out on Fridays.

Keep in mind, I have no idea how demographics play into this or how "popular" TGIF is (I know I've never heard of those shows). Just a thought.

[Dragonflies]

That looks about right, cause I read somewhere that Smallville is already been renewed, Hope and Faith is a no brainer LOL :) CSI, that's obvious.

I think it'd be great on Friday's after Hope and Faith :)

How many of you have sent an email to ABC telling them how much you love this show and if they can it you will jump off a building? I know I have.

[Steve M.]

I've sent an e-mail and mailed a postal letter! If I could send ABC messages with smoke signals or Morse code, I'd do it! :wave:

Okay, I got a form letter reply from ABC regarding "I'm With Her," after writing them for a second time, which reads as follows:
