factsoflife 08-30-2018, 01:06 PM Gen-TV Schedule Updates:
Network overhauls A.M. and weekend schedules
On the heels of updating their contractual holdings and dumping numerous classic shows, Gen-TV is updating their daytime and weekend schedules for Fall 2018. Below is the full updated schedule, which comes as Gen-TV seeks to freshen up its second-run offerings. Gen-TV President Eva Vargas said "We are always looking to update our schedule and keep viewers interested. Some of the programming we were airing were becoming stale after multiple runs on our network and it was time for a change."
The move towards the update also focuses more heavily on utilizing programming from Gen-TV's own vault of original programming. Vargas explains "when you have at your disposal a library of originals as vast and successful as ours you'd be pretty dumb not to utilize them to their fullest potential."

Gen-TV Studios Programs Cancelled By Lifetime
Lifetime TV has cancelled two Gen-TV produced reality programs after three seasons. "Celebrity Dreamhouse Project" and "Please, Fix My House" will not return for fourth seasons after they have completed airing their third seasons. Ratings for both were down considerably over their inaugural seasons in 2016.
Gen-TV is not seeking a new home for these programs instead focusing on developing new programming instead. Both series aired for the last time in July.
factsoflife 08-30-2018, 01:25 PM Outdoor Renovation Update
--Gen-TV series moving home
The end isn't really the end afterall. Just one day after getting cancelled by YTN Network; "Outdoor Renovation" has found a second life and a new home. After it is finished airing on YTN Network the series will become apart of the Gen-TV Network family as production for a third season has been ordered to air on Gen-TV Network sometime in 2019.
Eva Vargas, President of Gen-TV Studios said "We are proud to announce that we will continue production of Outdoor Renovation; a series we are immensely fond of and that it will be coming home to Gen-TV Network to air at a date to be determined in 2019."
Although the first and second seasons were hosted by DIY and HGTV star Ahmed Hassan, sources tell us that the third season is looking for a brand new host to replace Hassan. Casting is currently underway.
Outdoor Renovation Update:
Season 3 is A Go At Gen-TV
Season three of "Outdoor Renovation" is officially ready to go and will make its debut on the network in January as part of the networks mid-season schedule. Gen-TV is updating the show however and is adding John Colaneri and Anthony Carrino (aka The Cousins/Kitchen Cousins) as hosts of the show as viewers ask for help updating their landscaping, back porches, patios, garages, gardens and yards. To give it a new flair, the series will also feature "mini-renovations" on the inside of the home, aimed at maximizing a homes potential on a small budget. Described as "small fixes that make a big impact", it is a segment the network hopes will become a signature of the series.
Colaneri and Carrino came to fame in 2013 when HGTV debuted their series "Kitchen Cousins" a big hit it spawned spin-offs "Cousins On Call" and "Ugliest Kitchens In America" but a series of personal and financial issues faced by their construction company forced the network to part ways with the duo and they've focused on other projects.

Daytime & Weekend Schedules
With the writers strike averted, Gen-TV and other networks are able to proceed with their planned UpFront Presentations for advertisers where they unveil their new line-ups of programming. While Gen-TV Network won't make their official primetime presentation until Friday, they did hold today their Daytime & Weekend program; revealing their plans for Daytime (M-F) and Weekend (Saturday & Sunday) programming. This portion of the program was held in New York City at the Regency Plaza Hotel and was presented in-tandem by Gen-TV Studios President Ross Chin, Vice President Alexander Anthony Montez (Alex Montez), Board of Directors Chairperson Cain Wentworth and was hosted by Jackee Harry (Raising Grandma; The Jackie Show), Janeane Garofalo (In The News with Janeane Garofalo) and "Family Court" cast members Judge Alex Ferrera and Attorney Gloria Allred.
The 2 1/2 hours long presentation highlighted the network's Monday thru Friday daytime programming, including an all-new season of "Family Court"; featuring a revamped cast with Judge Alex Ferrera and Attorney Gloria Allred sitting in for departing hosts Glenda Hatchett and Mablean Ephriam. When the series returns in the fall with it's brand new season; it will feature a brand new format, more close in tone to long-running series "Divorce Court" instead of the overtly sensational tone it has had this season. Ross Chin commented on the decision to make this change saying "We heard the complaints and the concerns about the tone of Family Court, and took very seriously the concerns people had that we were exploiting children." "We have worked diligently with producers to change this and season 2 will not be as scandalous and will be more in line with current court shows in that regard." "Children will no longer be seen on the show, as their faces will be obscured."
In addition to returning to Gen-TV for season 2, "Family Court" is debuting in national syndication as well, and has been cleared in 98% of the country, with Tribune owned stations being the primary home outside of Gen-TV for the show.
Another exciting announcement is the renewal of hit soap opera "Edge of Justice", which will start a brand new storyline in the fall, and will feature a big cast change at that point. More about that will be announced closer to fall, however Gen-TV did confirm one big casting scoop; current lead cast member Hillary B. Smith, will remain with the series in the same role. Ross Chin explains "Hillary has become the face of this show and her character has easily become the most popular on Edge of Justice." "We are proud to keep Hillary and her fascinating and conflicted attorney on our network." Since debuting in January 2017, "Edge of Justice" has quickly emerged as a solid performer, quickly becoming the #2 overall Daytime Soap on TV, narrowly defeated by "The Young & Restless" in most ratings periods by less than a tenth of a point. For the period of February 6-March 10, 2017, "Edge of Justice" was the #1 rated Daytime Soap Opera on TV with Female Viewers aged 14-25.
Gen-TV's daytime programming will also include additional seasons each of hit news programs "Hourly News with Keith Olbermann", "In The News with Janeane Garofalo" and "NightCap starring Gio Benitez" with the first two moving to the afternoon hours to form a two-hour block of programming from 4-6pm. Previously these staples aired in the early morning.
Debuting this season, is a brand new original sitcom; "The Jackie Show" starring Jackee Harry (Raising Grandma) as a once popular talk show host desperate to reclaim her status as the "queen of daytime talk." This single-camera comedy will feature hilarious cameos from Wendy Williams, Sally Jesse Raphael, Ricki Lake, Oprah Winfrey, Rolonda Watts and Geraldo Rivera. The half-hour sitcom will air two episodes back to back from 12-1pm.
The last big announcement about Gen-TV's M-F line-up is the debut of the revamped "A.M. Live" which is now called "Gen-TV Live starring Chrissy Teigen & Jai Rodriguez" and will be much edgier, youthful and young than the previous incarnation. It will air daily from 11-12pm, Live coast-to-coast.
In terms of weekend programming, Gen-TV has spent a small fortune this year acquiring top-tier second run programming to fill those hours and has acquired a diverse slate of programs as varied as "E.R.", "NYPD BLUE", "The West Wing", "The Nanny", "Married With Children" and "Two and A Half Men." They will continue to break their weekend programming into two separate blocks; the first consisting of "Modern Day Masterpieces" and the second of "Classics & Gen-TV Originals". For the first half, they have acquired shows such as "The Americans", "Justified", "30 Rock", "Sons of Anarchy" and reacquired "The Good Wife." For the other block, they'ved filled it with shows from the Gen-TV Studios vault and classic sitcoms like "Designing Women", "The Golden Girls" and "Gimme A Break" among many others.

Family Court Becomes A Trio
When "Family Court" returns for its fourth season in September it will have another judge added to its docket, as Gen-TV confirms that Judge David Young will join returning Judge Alex Ferrer to the panel.
However, Gloria Allred has opted to step away from the series due to her law practice. She is being replaced by Judge Jackie Glass, most famous for her role in OJ Simpson's 2008 trial for robbery. She previously hosted "Swift Justice with Jackie Glass" which ran from 2011-2012.
factsoflife 08-31-2018, 10:31 PM Breaking Development News:
Gen-TV isn't shy to act when it smells a potential franchise and they are acting on the potential of returning comedy "Zendaya" (returning for its third season in September) and is developing a spin-off of the series focused on Zendaya's Aunts and Grandmother. Tentatively called "The Cole Family" it would potentially star Queen Latifah, Raven Symone and Telma Hopkins and would see Rachel True, Flex Alexander and Zendaya (Coleman) make occasional guest appearances.
The series "would focus on the wonderfully wacky relationships between a mother and her two daughters played to comedic perfection by Telma Hopkins as the no nonsense mother and Queen Latifah and Raven Symone as her unique, feisty and fabulous daughters with opinions of their own and their mothers strong will."
The idea for this spin-off came from strong audience response to an episode last season which focused entirely on the characters played by Latifah and Hopkins. Alongside Symone they have been recurring characters on the series since its first season.
Telma Hopkins portrays Marianne Cole, the grandmother of Zendaya and mother of Margie (Rachel True) while Latifah appears as Viviane "Vivvy" Cole, Zendaya's "cool" Aunt and closest confidant. Raven Symone plays Wilhelmina Cole, Zendaya's Aunt and Marianne's source of constant bewilderment and confusion. She is Margie's youngest sister, and one Margie isn't very close too. She is comparatively close in age to Zendaya and the two of them often get into trouble together.
Details are still in the early stages, but sources indicate this pilot is of high priority for the network and may be put into advanced development soon.
This pilot is being written by Krystal Denise and Michelle Waters, the two creators of "Zendaya" who serve as consulting producers on that show.

-Gen-TV Studios First Run Programming Available
Gen-TV Studios, the production company affiliated with Gen-TV Network is offering several programs for first-run syndication and for distribution to other networks and streaming outlets. The following is a list of the programs being offered for the 2018-2019 and 2019-2020 seasons.
Scripted:
Gen-TV Studios has a long history of offering first-run scripted programming dating back to 2009-2010 when it produced first-run series such as "The Clinic", "Baby Time" and "2nd Shift." More recently it has been behind such hits as "Sinbad", "Upselling", "Finding Home", "Single Again", "Second Chance" and numerous others.
DRAMA:
"Nowhere To Be Found" (working title): This one-hour drama pilot is for a fairly by the books crime procedural following a team of police detectives searching for missing persons.
"U.S. Intelligence"": This crime procedural pilot set in the New York branch of the fictional United States Intelligence Agency (a facsimile of the real life CIA) focuses on "a team of highly trained intelligence operatives searching for answers and hunting down the criminals who pose the biggest threat to the safety of U.S. citizens."
"Traders": This drama pilot combines two distinct genres; the conspiracy thriller and the business-themed drama. Set in the world of stock trading, this pilot focuses on the lives of a small trading house who operate on the shady side of the law; and what happens when they suspect two of their own of being undercover federal agents.
"Scorched Earth": This pilot that is not in any way connected to the popular video game focuses on what some members of a small Texas town believe to be an alien invasion. The series is a conspiracy thriller that Vargas says, "has the potential to take you in many different directions."
"Invaded": This pilot, a more literal alien-invasion drama focuses on an FBI trying to find out the truth behind a series of bizarre incidents in which people from twenty different US Cities describe what sounds very much like an alien abduction; all of whom have eerily similar stories.
COMEDY and DRAMEDY:
"Boarding School": This half-hour comedy pilot is best described as "a modern-day facts of life" as it focuses on four students at a boarding school and the struggles they face as they attempt to grow up. The students include two girls and two boys. They are looked over by their caring and resourceful caretakers, Mrs. Sweets and Mr. Gregor.
"Asset Protection": This pilot is for a one-hour dramedy with elements of a crime procedural set in a peculiar location: a high-end department store. It follows the team of security guards and asset protection specialist assigned to stop shoplifting and other unsafe activities at the department store.
"Ladies Night": This half-hour dramedy focuses on a group of four women in their 30's who meet each week for a weekly women's support group and the issues they face. It is an ensemble dramedy puts women's issues front and center; and focuses on the relationships between the four women and their individual lives away from the group as well. It can be described as "a mix between Designing Women and Dear John."
“Wicked”: A family themed comedy about three ordinary American children who discover that their “wicked stepmother” is an actual witch, with magical powers. Though she appears to be a good witch, her three stepchildren often get her into all sorts of trouble when they encourage her to use her powers to help them through their daily lives.
"Moving Down": This comedy focuses on the culture clash that happens when Robert Reyes loses his job of ten years and he and his homemaker wife have to move out of their suburban home and back to the lower-income neighborhood, they left ten years prior.
Gen-TV First Run Update:
--Gen-TV Studios Selling Out!
Gen-TV Studios is currently in the middle of a very strong season for their first-run offerings. The network has sold three programs "Traders", "Moving Down" and "Asset Protection" to an successful network who contractually we cannot name at this time (as that network has the right to disclose the sale first).
In addition Gen-TV has reached a deal with SyFy to air the series "Invaded". The alien invasion drama will debut on that network in 2019. Gen-TV will be paid 1.2 million dollars (per season) for the drama that SyFy has picked up for two-seasons.

YTN SIGNS CONTRACT STRENGTHENING RELATIONSHIP WITH GEN-TV
YTN and GEN-TV look to be sticking together for a few more years. Earlier today, a contract was finalized between the two networks for GEN-TV to produce three new series for YTN, set to begin airing sometime in 2019.
In the contact, YTN will air two new comedies from GEN-TV, and one drama.
On the comedy side, YTN has gained the rights to single-camera Asset Protection and multi-camera Moving Down. The episode order for Asset Protection is 18 episodes, and a full 22 episode order for Moving Down.
Asset Protection is a mocumentary style comedy with elements of a crime procedural set in a peculiar location: a high-end department store. It follows the team of security guards and asset protection specialist assigned to stop shoplifting and other unsafe activities at the department store.
Moving Down focuses on the culture clash that happens when Robert Reyes loses his job of ten years and he and his homemaker wife have to move out of their suburban home and back to the lower-income neighborhood, they left ten years prior.
Insiders tell us GEN-TV offered the two comedies at rock-bottom price. The two were apparently a packaged deal with a price tag under $1 million dollars. In todays television landscape, it is an unheard of deal and one that will benefit YTN immensely. YTN will reap 100% of the advertising profits, and will likely make back its money after two episodes of each comedy.
Turning to drama, YTN has picked up Traders for a 13 episode season. Traders combines two distinct genres; the conspiracy thriller and the business-themed drama. Set in the world of stock trading, this pilot focuses on the lives of a small trading house who operate on the shady side of the law; and what happens when they suspect two of their own of being undercover federal agents.
Again, YTN was given a deal they could not turn down. According to insiders, YTN will pay slightly less than $2 million dollars for the thirteen episodes. It's not as good of a deal as the comedies, but given price tags of most dramas are around $2-3 million per episode, this is a great deal.
Network representatives were not available for comment.
All projects are funded and distributed through GEN-TV, with YTN having the first-run rights. This adds to the relationship between the two networks, bringing the total number of GEN-TV produced series on YTN to six (the long-running Second Chance, hit comedy UpSelling, and docs-series Life After Prison). The two networks also share the rights to the Life After Prison offshoot, Life After Prison: The War on Drugs.

SHOCKER: YTN CANCELS "BLOODLINES" AFTER THREE SEASONS
Only a few months into her new job as YTN president, Lindsey Parker appears to be leaving her mark on the network - in a pretty big way. In the dead of night, YTN announced the cancellation of third year drama, Bloodlines. The cancellation comes as a surprise to many, as it was expected to snag an easy renewal for a fourth season.
Kicking off its run during the regular season in January 2016, Bloodlines was slow out of the gate, and pulled from the schedule for a re-launch during the summer. The procedural family drama found success in the summer, and was steady as a rock, averaging 6.2 million viewers and a 1.17 A18-49 (with all of the ratings in the 1.0-1.3 range). Season two saw minimal slippage, and growth within its viewership, averaging 6.6 million viewers and 0.96 A18-49. Again, all of its ratings were within a tight range: 0.8 to 1.1 (and that 0.8 was on *one* occasion, in the mid-summer).
Now in its third (and final season), YTN even gave the show a big pre-premiere jolt in April by debuting the season behind a new episode of Call Girls, where it recorded its best numbers since the series premiere (1.603 A18-49). That move seemed to a be a big boost of confidence for Bloodlines, and in its regular time period premiere, most of that audience followed with a 1.402 A18-49. As most shows do, it has slipped a bit, but held within a small range yet again on the season. Thus far, Bloodlines is averaging a series-best 6.92 million viewers and 0.96 A18-49 - even with last years performance.
Those numbers, and what appeared to be a vote of confidence for the series, make the cancellation so perplexing. Additionally, YTN has already cleared out most of its summer slate, cancelling a whopping seven series. With Bloodlines joining that group, the network has only five series set to return next summer - its smallest in network history.
There are three episodes remaining on its series order, with one episode airing this week, and a two-part finale airing next week (from 9 to 11 o'clock). As the cancellation was unexpected, Bloodlines does end on a cliffhanger, according to sources close to the network. With the move, it also appears Lindsey Parker is moving away from giving fans closure with series, as has been network precedent since day one.
YTN now has made decisions on its entire summer lineup. All five renewed series are expected to return next summer.
THE HOLLYWOOD INSIDER
SURPRISE! YTN UN-CANCELS "BLOODLINES"
Only a few weeks after its surprising cancellation, YTN has another surprise in store: it has renewed crime procedural drama Bloodlines for a fourth season.
It has been a crazy month for the veteran drama, which was cancelled a week before YTN announced it was slashing its summer schedule. Bloodlines appeared to be caught in the crossfire of that decision, despite its respectable ratings during the summer season. Since premiering, Bloodlines has been stable in each season, with minimal slippage year-to-year from season one to two, as well as two to three.
The network was unavailable for comment.
Insiders tell us YTN went down to the wire to try and renew Bloodlines, but couldn't come to new terms with deals for the main cast members. Their contracts were a bit unusual, given the series initially debuted during the regular season before moving to the summer. The entire cast was signed on for two seasons, upon completion of the first season (as opposed to the typical six year deal many networks make with the cast). The two main lead actresses were asking for a raise from about $25,000 an episode to $100,000 an episode. The network laughed off those negotiations and cancelled Bloodlines after three seasons.
Over the last two weeks, both sides came back together to try and hash out a deal. Early yesterday morning, insiders tell us the two leads signed a deal for approximately $55,000 an episode, with supporting cast members also seeing a bump in their paychecks. With new deals in place, YTN was ready to move forward with the fourth season.
Insiders also tell us the episode order is being trimmed for the upcoming fourth season. After airing 16 episodes per season the last three years, the fourth season will only have 8 episodes. No reason was given for the cutback, especially after being resurrected from the dead. At the end of the day, the cast will be making more per episode, but will average out to about $40,000 more with the episode order trimmed to only eight.
No word on when Bloodlines will return for its fourth season.

---How Gen-TV's Freshmen Series Stack Up
A Hollywood Now Feature
Buzz Factor: How Fall Series Rate In Hype
Gen-TV Edition
Closing out our month long feature ranking the buzz factor of the upcoming fall series from each network is our look at Gen-TV. In this column, we rank each of Gen-TV's 10 new freshmen series based on how much buzz or hype they are currently generating. Findings were ranked based on a number of factors including positive reviews in industry trades (reviews with a letter grade of B or Above), internet searches for the show or its lead stars; and overall audience familiarity based on a recent survey Hollywood Now subscribers and net users took, which was done by over 125,000 Hollywood Now readers. (This poll only considers series debuting in the fall and excludes mid-season replacements or series not yet scheduled.)
We rank each show from 1-10 based on how much buzz they are getting currently.
Here are the results:
1. Kate & Ali: Based on the results of the reader poll, nearly 90% of respondents indicate that they "have heard of or are familiar with" this show. This is the highest rated any show got for "audience familiarity". The show netted a 74% in the category of "intent to watch", indicating that 74% of respondents claim they "intend to watch the show." With 42% of those responding that, they "intend to watch on a regular basis."
In terms of critical reviews, "Kate & Ali" is at the top of the list at #1 with an average of "A-" from critics. The strongest review as a ravenous mention from the New York Times that wrote "Kate & Ali smartly subverts the common sitcom clichés by presenting them in a new context. Feat lesser comedies haven't even attempted to try." "The writing from Keegan-Michael Key is spot on and will easily become the most socially relevant program on to." "Buzzwords like diversity are thrown around a lot in Hollywood, but the common thread of this show isn't that the main characters aren't white, it is that they are human beings just doing the best they can to survive."
As a point of reference, when we presented this poll in 2015 the #1 ranked series was "Trauma Center" and that series is now among Gen-TV's biggest hits.
#2. Boston Blues: In something of an upset, police drama "Boston Blues" had the highest rating among "Intent to watch" with nearly 92% of respondents indicating that they intend to watch the show. In the "audience familiarity" category, it netted a 62% of viewers responding, "They have heard of or are familiar with" the series.
Critically the series has gotten above average reviews with an average grade of A- from critics. It holds a 74% on Rotten Tomatoes and an 82% from Metacritic. Typical reviews are like this excerpt from TV Now Magazine "Boston Blues easily could have been another monotonous police procedural but instead it is a lively, entertaining and thought-provoking character study of the impacts of crime and punishment in the modern world." In terms of the acting on this series, critics have singled out one actor for praise, James Van Der Beek who Los Angeles Times says “Completely and totally shatters his Dawson’s Creek good-boy image and fully immerses himself into the role of a corrupt cop involved in seriously illegal and immoral activities.”
#3. Good Ten Years: Gen-TV has poured many advertising dollars into this ensemble sitcom that as we go to press is still undergoing rewrites and recasting; but it seems to be paying off so far. The program netted 67% in “Audience Familiarity” with viewers indicating, “They are aware of the show or have heard of it.” It gets a little bit shakier with the category of “Intent to Watch” where this show rated only 32% of the audience indicating that they “intend to watch the series.”
Reviews of this series are not available, as Gen-TV has not made any screeners available to watch as this program is still undergoing creative tweaks and rewrites.
#4: Ready To Wear: Gen-TV might be in for a surprise when this series debuts; though expectations are low the network seems to be poised for an unexpected success story. Over 100% of the audience polled claims to have “heard of the series or be aware of it” and 84% indicated they “intend to watch the series.” Reviews for the series are trending towards the positive with an average grade of “A-“
Reviews have praises the performances of Zooey Deschanel and Wendie Mallick as “master classes in sitcom acting and a master’s degree in creating comedic charm when the writing lacks it.”
#5. Baker’s Dozen: This series is trending downward with critical reviews averaging a “B-“ and most reviewers complaining “despite a class of moderately skilled actors this series is charm free and mostly laugh free.” “Even the appealing cast of child actors (who oddly change week to week) aren’t enough to save this program from lackluster writing and non-existent character development.” Only 46% of the audience polled say that they have heard of the series and only 15% claim they intend to watch.
#6. Our Pet Dragon: This series is an odd one; while nearly 70% of the audience indicated that they “are familiar with the series or its concept”, only about 6% of those polled suggest any intention of watching the series. Reviews for the series are poor, generating an average score of “D-“ although the best review from the Family Television Association rated the series an “A+” saying “this is the perfect show to watch with your kids; it is wholesome, sanitized fun.”
7. Café Oddity: Despite a star-studded cast of TV favorites that include Jenna Elfman, Valerie Bertinelli and Justine Bateman; this series is failing on many levels so far. Only 20% of the audience indicated that they are familiar with the series and only 3% suggest any intention to watch. Despite being reviewed by over 30 outlets, the average score of its reviews is “D” with reviews calling the series “confusing, confounding and overly-complex for a 30-minute multi camera sitcom.”
8. Blood Rush: The reason this series has failed to measure up so far is a lack of promotion; a fact that Gen-TV attributes to the complex contractual relationship with their British co-producers who have failed to provide sufficient funding. Reviews are not available due to this being a limited run series and Gen-TV not wanting to send screeners out. Only 14% of polled audience members are “familiar” with the series and virtually nobody says they intend to watch.
9. Switching Places: This reality series has not a chance of success if our poll is accurate. Only 3% of the polled audience members suggested any familiarity with the show and 2% intended to watch.
10. Chef’s House: This really is not a fair fight, as Gen-TV has not sent screeners out for this reality show so there are no reviews. When polled; 0% of the audience said they had heard of the series and 0% indicated they intended to watch.
factsoflife 09-06-2018, 10:49 PM Gen-TV Starts Production
---Fall Series Being Filmed
Production has officially began for Gen-TV Studios Fall 2018 series; this marks a milestone as Gen-TV celebrates its 10th season in production this year. Among the returning favorites now filming are "Making It Work" returning for its sixth season. The marriage comedy focuses on a couple from different racial and socioeconomic backgrounds just trying to make their marriage survive. Also returning are comedies "Running In Circles" and "Raising Grandma" both starting their fourth seasons. Other comedies returning for their third seasons include Tina Fey and Octavia Spencer comedy "Selling Out"; family comedies "Hart of Family" and "Unlikely Family" and divorce drama "Every Other Weekend." Returning dramas include "Trauma Center"; returning for its fifth season, "The Mulroney Mysteries" entering its third season; "Deadly Visions" coming back for its third season and "Degree of Guilt" which will return for its second season in the second half of the season.
Gen-TV Networks 10th season on the air is an important one for the network; as it enters the 2018-2019 season without two of its strongest series ever; as both "Mallory's of Jefferson County" and "Sisters" ended their lengthy runs last season. The drama were among the highest-rated and most acclaimed series on the air; and their loss leaves Gen-TV without any dramas of the same level. "Deadly Visions" is a significant ratings success, but has not had the same level of critical acclaim it had in its first season. "The Mulroney Mysteries" was once a ratings darling but that seems to be cooling off, with last season seeing a massive drop in demos. "Trauma Center" has become a stable, reliable series but there are doubts as to how much longer it can survive as it continually loses cast members.
Gen-TV will debut a string of new comedies this season aimed at allowing families to watch television together. They've had great success with children's series with returning comedies "Magic School", "Head of Household", "Fish out of Water", "The Special Classroom" and "Zendaya." Joining them this season is a new children's comedy "Our Pet Dragon" which features an ordinary American family raising a pet-dragon hatched from a 10,000 year old egg that scientist dad Paul Petersen accidently hatches. The pet dragon is brought to life by puppetry and motion-capture technology.
Additional new comedies for the older members of the family include Zooey Deschanel and Wendie Malick in "Ready To Wear"; sitcom veterans Jenna Elfman, Valerie Bertinelli and Justine Bateman star in "Cafe Oddity", which features a roster of rotating and recurring guest stars featuring name talents like Delta Burke, Alexander Chaplin, Alan Tudyk and many others. "Kate & Ali", a modern update of the 80's sitcom "Kate & Allie" features Keegan-Michael Key and Tiya Sircar as single parents raising their kids together in a house; one a gay woman who is also Indian and one a muslim and african-american man. The bold message of this comedy is encourage acceptance of families who are different then you.
Is "Trauma Center" in trouble?
--Network reportedly worried about creative changes
Over a month into the production cycle for its fifth season, Gen-TV executives are growing very worried about the creative state of its most important drama series "Trauma Center" which will enter the season as Gen-TV's second-longest running drama series (the first being "Love Affair" which airs only in the summer.)
The series is undergoing several cast changes this season with Connie Britton exiting the series and her character being killed off. Herself a replacement for Kyra Sedgwick who departed two years ago; she'll be replaced by several new cast members who will fill very different roles. The trouble it seems is that executives are worried that having too many new characters on the series will make fans grow bored and uninterested without many of their favorite characters. Another problem is that many of the storylines this season will shift to politics as Kimberly Elise's character, Dr. Mindy Walters joins the show this season and quickly draws the ire of her co-workers as she is a staunch Trump supporter; a fact that will not sit well with Dr. Saundra Marcus (Debbie Morgan); a life-long democrat and Hillary supporter. The two will clash constantly as they have vastly different approaches to running the hospital. Marcus, the chief administrator will have to deal personally with Dr. Walters belief system as she openly discriminates against gay and lesbian co-workers and spouts religious ideology instead of prescribing birth control and in one case telling a patient with a high-risk pregnancy that "she should absolutely die so her unborn fetus can live."
It is this political storyline worrying executives at Gen-TV who worry that this medical drama; once a reliable and consistent creative series might be straying too far from its core concept.
Sources within Gen-TV tell us that the situation is so dire that meetings are being held within the walls of the studio for executives to brainstorm ways to save the series; including the possibility of firing its executive producers and even the idea of recasting its leading man Johnathon Schaech with somebody "more universally well liked by audiences."
Only time will tell how this plays out but it is safe to say that Gen-TV will be watching the ratings closely and monitoring the reaction on social media to see what the future holds for this show.

factsoflife 09-09-2018, 12:25 PM Eva Vargas Very Personal Announcement
---I am Bisexual and Proud
Gen-TV President Eva Vargas has been making the rounds of the Hollywood dating scene recently having been spotted with Jake Gyllenhaal, Channing Tatum and possibly Antonio Banderas recently. But it was when she was spotted with somebody rather different this past week in L.A. that the rumor mill started buzzing. Vargas was spotted with Cameron Esposito in L.A. and rumors began circulating about Eva's sexual orientation. The chatter grew so loud and unavoidable that Vargas took to twitter to make a big announcement "I am bisexual and I am proud." "I date both men and women and that is all I will be saying about it."
But that wasn't all she said, she did an interview on ABC's "The View" later that week and was asked directly by host Whoopi Goldberg about these rumors and Vargas said "Yes. I am a bisexual woman. I date both men and women, and I have always done this." "I was in a long-term relationship with a woman for four years before I married my now ex-husband." "It is a part of who I am and a part of myself I am proud of. It is nothing to be ashamed of and I will not have any of this negative chatter."
As for the details of her relationship with Esposito, Vargas says "Cameron and I are just very good friends." "She and I were enjoying a quiet dinner together and that is it. We are not dating as we are good friends."

Gen-TV has decided to pair with a brand new Ratings Monitoring system, the National TV Ratings System or NTRS instead of relying on Nielsen Ratings this year. This will result in a different lay-out for our ratings this season:
Gen-TV's Freshmen Success!
---"Ready To Wear" boasts biggest numbers in years
Gen-TV's freshmen comedy series "Ready To Wear" debuted to boffo numbers on Sunday night netting 33.8 million viewers and a 10.3 in demos. This massive launch is a big deal as it is Gen-TV's biggest comedy launch since "Selling Out" debuted three years ago. It also falls in line with the stellar reviews the series has gotten.
Here are the highlights (ratings-wise) for Gen-TV's Sunday night.
Sunday, September 9, 2018:
---8pm: Chef's House (Series Premiere, New): 14.4 million/4.5 (4.54) 18-49
This is a fairly average launch for a first-year reality series, but its demos performance is a sign of potential for future growth.
9pm: Cafe Oddity (Series Premiere, New): 22.3 million/4.9 (4.92) 18-49
This is an important comedy launch for Gen-TV which is debuting six new comedy series this season. These numbers are much larger than was expected for this program; and are a lot better than the reviews suggested it would be. It will be interesting to see how this program holds up in coming weeks with increased competition.
930: Ready To Wear (Series Premiere, New): 33.8 million/ 10.3 (10.32) 18-49
As previously discussed; this launch is big for Gen-TV and the largest comedy launch they've had since "Selling Out" three years ago. With a 10.3 in demos this marks a larger launch than CBS had a year ago with "Young Sheldon" and ranks it as the largest comedy debut on Broadcast in over eight years. It is a significant launch for Gen-TV and and big question mark for broadcast TV. As a multi-camera sitcom it is going to be important to see how this show develops as TV's biggest multi-camera sitcom "The Big Bang Theory" ends its run in 2019.
10pm: The Mulroney Mysteries (New; Season Premiere): 13.2 million/4.4 (4.42) 18-49
This one has to be a big disappointment for Gen-TV as this premiere is down nearly 60% from a year-ago and marks a disturbing downward trend for the series that once routinely netted over 40 million viewers. Even with special guest star Kristin Chenoweth the series wasn't able to return to previous highs.
What's On Gen-TV Monday Night?
Coming up on Monday night:
Monday, September 10, 2018:
Season three premiere of "Hart of Family" and "Every Other Weekend"; season six premiere of "Trauma Center" and season two premiere of "Grounded" starring John Larroquette, Carrie Preston and now featuring new co-stars Tone Bell and Sherri Shepherd.
Also airing is the series premiere of new comedy "Kate & Ali" starring Keegan-Michael Key and Tyia Sircar. This bold and modern reimagining of the 1980's classics "Kate & Allie" takes the divorced mothers of the original series and replaces them with people of color; a man Ali Abdul-Alshayer who is both African-American and Muslim and is raising two daughters and Kate Patel, a Indian-American Lesbian raising her two sons. This series which has had preview airings all over Gen-TV networks and in movie theaters nationwide is one of the networks biggest gambles this season; but has been garnering ravenous reviews from critics. It currently is ranked #1 on TV Critics List of "Comedies Likely To Win Emmy for Best Comedy Series in 2019.""

factsoflife 09-11-2018, 11:29 PM Gen-TV's Monday Night:
---Kate & Ali's Very Big Opening
Gen-TV's Fall is getting off to a very strong start. On Monday night the freshmen comedy "Kate & Ali" debuted to a very healthy 25.9 million viewers and a 12.3 in demos. In terms of demos, this is the largest comedy opening on broadcast TV in nearly a decade. It crushes the record set on Sunday night by another Gen-TV debut "Ready to Wear." However, "Ready To Wear" was seen by far more viewers.
Reviews for "Kate & Ali" are also very strong, with the series garnering nearly unanimous praise and many calling it "the best comedy series in over a decade" and "groundbreaking."
Here are the full highlights of Gen-TV's Monday night:
Monday, September 10, 2018:
8pm: Hart of Family (New, Season Premiere): 17.5 million/6.3 (6.34) 18-49
---While down in total viewers; the third season premiere of this sitcom grew in demos.
830: Every Other Weekend (New, Season Premiere): 20.4 million/4.8 (4.84) 18-49
----A strong and solid debut for the third season of this sitcom.
9pm: Grounded (New, Season Premiere): 14.1 million/4.3 (4.39) 18-49
---Grounded, which just barely got renewed for a second season is actually stronger than it was a year ago and shows improvement in both demos and total viewers.
930: Kate & Ali (New, Series Premiere): 25.9 million/ 12.3 (12.35) 18-49
---A very good start for this first-season sitcom which if it retains even a fraction of these viewers will be well on its way to a long-term future.
10: Trauma Center (New, Season Premiere): 27.1 million/8.3 (8.32) 18-49
---Trauma Center debuted its fifth season to a better than average return. With an 8.3 in demos the series is down from last season but is still pulling healthy viewers for such an old show.

Gen-TV Family Comedies Down Slightly
---"Magic School" returns down from last season
Tuesday, September 11, 2018:
The big story on Gen-TV Tuesday night was the return of family-friendly comedies "Magic School", "Fish Out Of Water" and "Zendaya." While "Zendaya" and "Fish Out Of Water" returned on-par with last season; "Magic School" returned to 12.8 million viewers and a 3.5 in demos; down significantly from last season. Though this could be a fluke, it will be interesting to see if it can rebound in the coming weeks. This series is a valuable franchise for Gen-TV; routinely raking in millions of dollars in ad revenue and merchandising.
Elsewhere on the schedule; grown-up comedy "Making It Work" returned for its sixth season to 22.4 million viewers and a 5.3 in demos; actually up significantly from a year ago.
Another big story was the series premiere of cop-drama "Boston Blues"; which debuted to a strong 16.8 million viewers and a 4.6 in demos. Given the fantastic reviews this show has gotten and the pre-premiere buzz surrounding it, these numbers are very strong.
Here are the full highlights:
8pm: Fish Out Of Water (Season Premiere; New): 18.3 million/4.5 (4.54) 18-49
830: Magic School (Season Premiere; New): 12.8 million/3.5 (3.53) 18-49

YTN PLOTTING SATURDAY COMEBACK?
Only a few weeks after abandoning summer programming, network sources have informed us that YTN is in the planning stages of bringing back original programming to Saturday nights. Our sources tell us network officials are in the very early stages of the idea, but it has begun to take hold over the last few days.
If YTN does bring original programming to Saturday nights, it would mark the first time since 2015 for YTN, and one of just a handful of times they have attempted to program the night. Most of those attempts have been burn-off programming, not a full blown attempt to program the night.
YTN first aired original programming on Saturday nights back in the summer of 2011, burning off the short-lived Karaoke Challenge. Later that season they added unscripted options Weekly Update and Weekly Update: Controversy, which both lasted a few months on the night - the longest of any show on YTN Saturday nights. That same year, YTN aired season five of acquired Lie to Me, before it moved back to Wednesdays (at 11) during its sixth and final season.
YTN attempted non-burnoff programming on the night again in 2014 with older-skewing Moving West and Clerks of the Court - and that lasted only two weeks before YTN made changes to the schedule yet again. Life of Crime and Love Affair aired on Saturdays for a few weeks in 2015, after they had already been cancelled by YTN.
Unlike those previous attempts, it appears YTN is looking for the right shows to fill out the night. Additionally, YTN has a stockpile of programming that is not airing as part of the fall schedule, including a whopping eight midseason series, six leftover summer series, and three just-ordered GEN-TV produced series. That represents one of the largest midseason stockpiles for any network in television history - enough to program nearly an entire weekday schedule.
As this story develops, we will bring you more!

Gen-TV Networks Mixed Bag on Wednesday
---Returning favorites remain strong; new comedy starts softly
Wednesday, September 12, 2018:
While Gen-TV's three returning comedies; "Unlikely Family", "Running In Circles" and "Threesome" all returned to strong numbers on Wednesday night, all three were down considerably from averages a year-ago.
The strongest of the three, "Unlikely Family" opened its third season to 17.5 million viewers and a 3.6 in demos. While still a strong performance it is down quite a bit from an average of 20.3 million and 4.4 in demos it had last season.
The softest of the three was "Running In Circles" which returned to 14.3 million and 2.6 in demos. However, this is the series fourth season so an erosion of viewers is predictable.
Freshmen comedy "Baker's Dozen" opened to a soft start with 7.4 million viewers and a 2.5 in demos. These kind of numbers have gotten other Gen-TV comedies cancelled.
Returning drama "American Citizen" opened its second season to a whopping 63.4 million viewers and a 14.2 in demos. This performance nearly matches its debut a year ago.
Here are the full highlights:
8pm: Unlikely Family (New; Season Premiere): 17.5 million/3.6 (3.64) 18-49
830: Baker's Dozen (New; Series Premiere): 7.4 million/2.5 (2.51) 18-49
9: Running In Circles (New; Season Premiere): 14.3 million/2.6 (2.64) 18-49
930: Threesome (New; Season Premiere-Final Season): 15.8 million/4.2 (4.21) 18-49
10: American Citizen (New; Season Premiere): 64.4 million/14.2 (14.29) 18-49
What's On Gen-TV Thursday
Thursday, September 13, 2018:
On Thursday Night, Gen-TV hopes for their comedies to dominate other programming. With other networks mostly airing reruns until next week it is possible for them to gain some temporary momentum.
At 8pm, season two of "The Boss Lady" debuts. The series was a breakout success last year. At 830, new comedy "A Good Ten Years" faces an uphill battle as it works to iron out its actual premise and cast; as that program continually undergoes tweaks behind the scenes.
At 9pm, returning comedy "Unemployed" opens its second season; a breakout hit last year the network hopes it can keep its momentum.
At 930, returning comedy "Selling Out" returns for its third season and hopes to maintain its strong returns and its standing among Gen-TV's highest rated comedies.
At 10pm, "Highly Functioning Adults" opens its abbreviated second season. It will air for 12-weeks and then go on-hiatus for the rest of the season so "Degree of Guilt" can air for 20-weeks. This unusual scheduling is to accommodate Riz Ahmed starring on both series and to allow the actor to have a personal life as well.
factsoflife 09-13-2018, 11:37 PM Gen-TV Altering Casting:
-Freshmen Talk Shows Making Changes
Ahead of their planned September launch, Gen-TV's two brand new talk shows "Women's Day Live" and "Morning Talk" are undergoing some significant casting changes. Eva Vargas, Gen-TV's President says "these changes are the result of numerous focus groups and test shows that told us the audience was not responding to chemistry between certain co-hosts and that we needed to change the lineup a little bit."
So here it goes:
"Morning Talk":
The upcoming panel-style show (think "The View" or "The Talk") is dumping Vicki Lewis in favor of Tiffany Haddish ("Girls Trip"; "The Carmichael Show"). Sources tell Hollywood Now that "Vicki Lewis was simply not connecting with the core audience Gen-TV wants to grab with this series. She was skewing towards an older audience and Gen-TV is looking to grab millennials with this series. "
The casting of Haddish is being seen as "an attempt to appeal to a much younger audience in their teens and twenties." It is also being touted as "a huge step towards a truly inclusive panel which features JuJu Chang who is Asian-American, Sherri Saum who is biracial, and Rose McGowan who is white. A source for Gen-TV says "We are very happy to confirm that Tiffany Haddish is joining the cast of our new talk show Morning Talk and is going to be present to give her insightful, hilarious and thoughtful viewpoint to our audience."
"Woman's Day Live":
Gen-TV has announced that ahead of the series launch they are "respectfully parting ways with Jillian Michaels" who sources say "test audiences just did not warm up to." "Jillian has a very strong personality and can sometimes comes across as too aggressive or pushy, a trait many viewers find off-putting." They also tell us "Jillian was not happy with the format of the series and didn't jell with her future co-hosts; several test shows went down in flames as Jillian was unable to find common ground with her co-hosts and would seem overly pushy."
She is being replaced in her role as the "Wellness, Fitness & Nutrition" expert by Teddi-Jo Mellencamp-Arroyave. Mellencamp-Arroyave is a fan favorite on Bravo's "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" and in her real life is a life coach and accountability coach. She has talked openly on the show about her massive weight loss achieved through diet, exercise and changing her thinking about food. Her role is the show is being adjusted and will now be referred to as "Diet, Fitness, Nutrition and Accountability" and will cover various aspects of how to eat right, how to exercise right and how to hold yourself accountable for your own success or failure. Teddi will share fitness tips, prepare healthy recipes and discuss secrets to breaking negative habits that prevent you from being happy and healthy.
Another change being made is that Marissa Jaret Winokur is being replaced by Catt Sadler, the former E! host who made headlines in 2017 for quitting her job after finding out she was being paid nearly a third less than her male co-host Jason Kennedy. Saddler, a veteran of the entertainment news world spent over a decade at E!, first hosting the show "The Daily Ten" from 2006-2010. A spokesperson for Gen-TV said "we graciously thank Marissa for her enthusiastic work over the last several months. She is a dynamic and engaging host but unfortunately she just wasn't the right fit for this particular show."
They also said "We are happy to welcome Catt Sadler to our team at "Women's Day Live" and we think her professional experience and familiarity with the world of entertainment news makes her the perfect addition to our show."
"The Daily Click":
Don't fret about Marissa Jaret Winokur being replaced on "Women's Day Live" as she has already lined-up another gig at Gen-TV. She has been added as a co-host on freshmen series "The Daily Click" where she will serve alongside comedian Tone Bell.
Gen-TV representatives said "While her brief tenure on Women's Day Live didn't last Marissa's work ethic and humor impressed us greatly and she has easily earned her spot as co-host of The Daily Click; where she has an immense amount of chemistry with Tone Bell."
"In The News with Janeane Garofalo"
Janeane Garofalo has announced that the 2018-2019 television season will be the last one for her Gen-TV news-comedy series. She announced at the TCA conference in July "After three seasons I have decided it is time to call it quits." "I have given everything I can to this program and have been rewarded for it financially and intellectually."
This news came as quite a shock to Gen-TV executives as "In The News" still ranks as Gen-TV Daytime's highest rated show (aside from "Family Court") and is the networks most successful news program ever. The series described at the time of its debut as "one-part The Daily Show, one-part evening news, one-part republican nightmare and you have In The News with Janeane Garofalo, hosted by the intellectual, sardonic and insightful Janeane Garofalo."
Since its 2016 debut the series has won multiple awards including a Peabody Award, two Emmy Awards for "Outstanding Variety-Talk Series" and two for "Outstanding Writing-Variety Series" and multiple Best of TV (Harper Everett Awards). In 2017, Garofalo renegotiated her contract to pay her over $20 million per season. However her contract expires in August 2019.
Executives for Gen-TV declined to comment on Garofalo's decision to end the series at the conclusion of the 2018-2019 season, but sources say "they are very upset that their big cash cow is ending and they are desperately hoping one of their new programs becomes a big success."
This will leave only "NightCap with Gio Benitez" standing among the three news programs Gen-TV debuted between 2015 and 2016; as "Hourly News with Keith Olbermann" ended last season and becomes a new series "the Download with Keith Olbermann", a significantly different show aimed at attracting a much younger audience.

Gen-TV's Daytime Ratings:
---Network has a big mess on its hands
Gen-TV Networks daytime schedule is a big mess; at least that is the message we could gleam from the ratings for the season openers of the networks daytime line-up.

Freshmen comedy "Baker's Dozen" opened to a soft start with 7.4 million viewers and a 2.5 in demos. These kind of numbers have gotten other Gen-TV comedies cancelled.
Returning drama "American Citizen" opened its second season to a whopping 63.4 million viewers and a 14.2 in demos. This performance nearly matches its debut a year ago.
Here are the full highlights:
8pm: Unlikely Family (New; Season Premiere): 17.5 million/3.6 (3.64) 18-49
830: Baker's Dozen (New; Series Premiere): 7.4 million/2.5 (2.51) 18-49
9: Running In Circles (New; Season Premiere): 14.3 million/2.6 (2.64) 18-49
930: Threesome (New; Season Premiere-Final Season): 15.8 million/4.2 (4.21) 18-49
10: American Citizen (New; Season Premiere): 64.4 million/14.2 (14.29) 18-49
What's On Gen-TV Thursday
On Thursday Night, Gen-TV hopes for their comedies to dominate other programming. With other networks mostly airing reruns until next week it is possible for them to gain some temporary momentum.
At 8pm, season two of "The Boss Lady" debuts. The series was a breakout success last year. At 830, new comedy "A Good Ten Years" faces an uphill battle as it works to iron out its actual premise and cast; as that program continually undergoes tweaks behind the scenes.
At 9pm, returning comedy "Unemployed" opens its second season; a breakout hit last year the network hopes it can keep its momentum.
At 930, returning comedy "Selling Out" returns for its third season and hopes to maintain its strong returns and its standing among Gen-TV's highest rated comedies.
At 10pm, "Highly Functioning Adults" opens its abbreviated second season. It will air for 12-weeks and then go on-hiatus for the rest of the season so "Degree of Guilt" can air for 20-weeks. This unusual scheduling is to accommodate Riz Ahmed starring on both series and to allow the actor to have a personal life as well.
Gen-TV Thursday Dominates:
Thursday, September 13, 2018:
If Gen-TV was hoping their Thursday programming would be the dominant choice of TV viewers; they got their wish. The season three premiere of "Selling Out" was easily the most-watched program on TV scoring 27 million viewers and a 7.3 in demos. This is actually an increase over last season.
Season two of "The Boss Lady" opened to 17.5 million viewers and a 4.2 in demos; down 15% over last year, but still enough to dominate the audience.
"Unemployed" is down over last year with 16.4 million viewers and a 5.3 in demos; but still a strong showing for a second season.
The bad news for Gen-TV is that the series premiere of "A Good Ten Years" was seen by only 9.1 million viewers and a 2.6 in demos; not the strong showing they hoped for.
Also in the loss category, "Highly Functioning Adults" opens its second season down considerably from last seasons average of 24 million viewers and a 12.3 in demos. With 14.1 million viewers and a 2.6 in demos, the series has shed nearly 30% of its audience year-to-year.
Here is Gen-TV's full Thursday highlights:
8pm: The Boss Lady (Season Premiere, New): 17.5 million/4.2 (4.24) 18-49
830: A Good Ten Years (Series Premiere, New): 9.1 million/2.6 (2.62) 18-49
9: Unemployed (Season Premiere, New): 16.4 million/5.3 (5.34) 18-49
930: Selling Out (Season Premiere, New): 27 million/7.3 (7.37) 18-49
10: Highly Functioning Adults (Season Premiere; New): 14.1 million/2.5 (2.54) 18-49

Gen-TV Friday:
Friday Night Flops
Friday, September 14, 2018:
Gen-TV's first friday of the 2018-2019 season was a colossal flop. On a new night and time, "Head of Household" opened its second season with 8.3 million viewers and a 3.1 in demos; a massive drop over last season where it averaged over 30 million viewers and a 10.4 in demos.
Showing signs of aging "Raising Grandma" was viewed by 6.7 million viewers and a 3.2 in demos. A far cry from its heydey pulling in over 22 million viewers.
Thankfully, stalwart "Deadly Visions" stopped the bleeding with 17.9 million viewers and a 6.5 in demos. Though this is down from its last year average, it is the Friday show with the least amount of viewer loss.
Friday's Full Highlights:
8pm: Head of Household (Season Premiere; New): 8.3 million/3.1 (3.13) 18-49
830: Raising Grandma (New; Season Premiere): 6.7 million/3.2 (3.23) 18-49
9pm: Deadly Visions (New; Season Premiere): 17.9 million/6.5 (6.56) 18-49
10: BloodRush (New; Series Premiere): 6.5 million viewers/2.1 (2.13) 18-49
Coming in October will be Classics TV's very first Halloween lineup! Home Improvement is up first, but other shows will be announced at a later time sometime in October.
factsoflife 09-16-2018, 06:41 PM Gen-TV's Saturday Success:
---Reality Series Boast Gen-TV To Saturday Win
The return of "High School Diaries: Freshman Year" was the #1 rated series on Saturday night, winning both Women 18-49 and Teens 12-16 easily. The broadcast was watched by 20.1 million viewers and 5.8 in the 18-49 demo.
At 9pm, the series premiere of "Switching Places" netted 19.3 million viewers and a 5.8 in demos. A strong start.
Gen-TV's hour of comedy from 8-9 was a bona-fide success as well; with "The Special Classroom" opening its second season at 17.2 million viewers and a 4.6 in demos. Meanwhile, the series debut of "Our Pet Dragon" was watched by 15.1 million viewers and netted a 3.8 in demos; showing it has plenty of room to grow.

Two Veteran Sitcoms To End in 2018
Gen-TV Studios is making a very shocking announcement today; that they have decided to retire two long-running series at the end of this calendar year. "Raising Grandma" and "Running In Circles" will finish their runs on Gen-TV in December 2018; at the completion of their fourth seasons.
The news comes as something of a surprise if you're a fan of the show, both have been reliable and steady performers for the network and have both entered syndication this season giving Gen-TV a massive payday. However, if you closely watch TV ratings you would have predicted this coming; both series have been seeing declining returns for several seasons now; with ratings tumbling as much as 20% between seasons three and four.
When Gen-TV announced their episode orders for their shows earlier this year, "Raising Grandma" usually a solid performer was given only a 7-episode order while, "Running In Circles" was given a 12-episode order; both far below their usual numbers.
Now, in order to finish their runs, "Raising Grandma" will complete a 13-episode order and wrap its run in December 2018; and "Running In Circles" will complete the 12 episodes already ordered and will exit in December. Producers of both shows are now scrambling to write a fitting series finale that will tie-up any loose ends and end this shows with style.
Sources at Gen-TV tell us that this decision was in the works for many months but that the high returns they got for the series premieres of two new series ("Ready To Wear", "Kate & Ali") prompted them to pull the plug officially.
Both shows debuted in 2015 and were immediate successes; with both garnering critical acclaim and high ratings. Jackee Harry (Raising Grandma) saw a career resurgence thanks to the program and has used it as a springboard to additional projects including Gen-TV's daytime series "The Jackie Show."

8- The Weakest Link - SERIES PREMIERE / RETURN TO YTN - 6.13 million viewers and 1.2 (1.202) A18-49, its lowest rating ever on YTN (although comparisons to four/five years ago are typically unfair at this point). Compared to the year-ago comedy combo in the hour, The Weakest Link was down about 1.5 million viewers and five tenths in the demo. Not a great start, but it is a cheaper option for YTN in the hour.
9- Adventure of a Lifetime - SERIES PREMIERE - 6.39 million viewers and 1.3 (1.319) A18-49, up a tenth from its lead-in. Given this seemed to be low on YTN's priority list, and it grew from The Weakest Link, this is certainly not a bad start for the new adventure competition series.
10- Day in the Life - 2ND SEASON PREMIERE - 4.18 million viewers and 0.9 (0.894) A18-49, down six tenths from last years finale, and three tenths worse than its previous series low (1.201 on April 2nd). It is difficult to know what YTN's expectations were for the sophomore series, given it feels really out of place in the Sunday 10 o'clock timeslot. All in all, this is about as good as they could have asked for, but it'll have to hold in the coming weeks to have a chance at a third season.
During premiere week, YTN's numbers will be posted night by night, before reverting to weekly numbers next week.
Up tomorrow, YTN has the season premiere of SOCCER STORIES, the series premiere of IN WITH THE IN-LAWS, an all new night for the season premiere of CIA FILES, and the series premiere of LAPD UNIT 7.

Is Jackee Harry to blame?
---Actress accused of asking for show to end
If fans are angry about Gen-TV cancelling "Raising Grandma" it turns out they might want to direct their anger at star Jackee Harry who sources tell Hollywood Now is directly responsible for the series cancellation. Our source tell us "Jackee was no longer satisfied with the series writing and asked for the series to end." "She felt the program had run its course and fulfilled its premise years ago." "She asked Gen-TV to end the show so she could concentrate on her daytime series; The Jackie Show and turn her attention to other projects."
When contacted for comment, Jackee Harry and Gen-TV reps simply said "no comment."

8- Soccer Stories - 2ND SEASON PREMIERE - 5.83 million viewers and 1.2 (1.197) A18-49, pretty much right in line with its 1.21 season one average. Compared to its year-ago series premiere, Soccer Stories was down only about two tenths.
830- In with the In-Laws - SERIES PREMIERE - 4.79 million viewers and 1.0 (1.001) A18-49, down two tenths from its lead in. Obviously this is not a good start, but the one bright spot is the fact it is slightly higher than the year ago Burgers and Fries. Tough to see how this plays out, but with typical drops in week two on the horizon, things could get ugly very quickly for the freshman comedy.
9- CIA Files - 4TH SEASON PREMIERE - 12.74 million viewers and 2.3 (2.278) A18-49, down a full point from last years season premiere (which was on Wednesdays at 9). However, the third season average worked out to be a 2.23, so this is right in line with the season average, and well above anything from the spring. In fact, this is the shows best performance since a 2.426 on January 17th. Call Girls had occupied the timeslot for the last few years, so any comparisons to YTN's previous mega-show are kind of unwarranted. For those of you are curious though, CIA Files was down 52% from the year-ago season premiere of Call Girls. That goes to show how massive Call Girls was in its run, and does not indicate weakness for CIA Files. Half hour: 2.287/2.269
10- LAPD Unit 7 - SERIES PREMIERE - 10.92 million viewers and 1.7 (1.702) A18-49, down 25% in the demo from its lead in, but only 14% in total viewers. Half hour numbers indicate some strong holds, so that could be a big positive in the weeks to come (1.713/1.691). YTN has a much older-skewing drama here, but the results so far are not all that bad. YTN will have to hope it holds in the coming weeks, just like much of their freshman slate thus far. Compared to the year-ago I Am Rebecca, LAPD Unit 7 was up three tenths in the demo, and gained about 8 million viewers (with a much smaller lead in). YTN notes this is the best performance for a regularly scheduled one hour drama in the 10 o'clock timeslot, in total viewers, since 2012.
During premiere week, YTN's numbers will be posted night by night, before reverting to weekly numbers next week.
Up tomorrow, YTN has the revival of kept-under-wraps COLLEGE, the series premiere of SANCHEZ'S IN THE SUBURBS, the season premiere of FULL TIME MOM, the series premiere of PARKWAY MOTEL, and the record-breaking tenth season premiere of TAKEN.

--Vargas throws big Emmy bash
Eva Vargas, President of Gen-TV Studios didn't let the fact that Gen-TV was snubbed by Emmy affect her at all. Despite the network and studio getting no Emmy nominations; Gen-TV still celebrated TV's biggest night with a star-studded party hosted by Vargas at the Beverly Hills Convention Center. Vargas invited over 1,000 people to the bash; including cast and crew members from every Gen-TV Studios series; and industry heavyweights, celebrities and as a show of solidarity also extended invitations to cast and crew members from other networks that were snubbed by Emmy. She explains "The Emmy Awards have became a popularity contest that is unwinnable by traditional broadcast networks; and networks like Gen-TV, YTN, Lifetime, CW are overlooked, ignored and unfairly snubbed despite producing high quality, popular television series." "I invited cast members, crew members and executives from those and numerous other networks who either were snubbed in the nominations or were likely to be ignored when voting for the winners."
The party was a smashing success, with celebrities still in attendance way past midnight and cleaning crews unable to gain access until far past six am. Popular recording artists Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran were among the performers that Vargas hired to serenade her guests following the Emmy broadcast; and celebrity DJ Pauly Delvecchio (AKA Pauly D from Jersey Shore) was seen spinning tracks for the crowd to dance to.
Gen-TV was completely shut out of the nominations this year, receiving zero nominations; even being ignored at the creative arts ceremony honoring technical achievement that is not traditionally broadcast on TV.
Vargas was furious when nominations were announced but has seemingly gotten over that anger; and has chosen instead to focus on the upcoming Best of TV Awards which will be held in early 2019. Vargas says "We'll do much better at the Best of TV Awards where I expect Gen-TV to sweep the nominations."
factsoflife 09-19-2018, 12:34 AM Eva Vargas Very Personal Announcement
---I am Bisexual and Proud
Gen-TV President Eva Vargas has been making the rounds of the Hollywood dating scene recently having been spotted with Jake Gyllenhaal, Channing Tatum and possibly Antonio Banderas recently. But it was when she was spotted with somebody rather different this past week in L.A. that the rumor mill started buzzing. Vargas was spotted with Cameron Esposito in L.A. and rumors began circulating about Eva's sexual orientation. The chatter grew so loud and unavoidable that Vargas took to twitter to make a big announcement "I am bisexual and I am proud." "I date both men and women and that is all I will be saying about it."
But that wasn't all she said, she did an interview on ABC's "The View" later that week and was asked directly by host Whoopi Goldberg about these rumors and Vargas said "Yes. I am a bisexual woman. I date both men and women, and I have always done this." "I was in a long-term relationship with a woman for four years before I married my now ex-husband." "It is a part of who I am and a part of myself I am proud of. It is nothing to be ashamed of and I will not have any of this negative chatter."
As for the details of her relationship with Esposito, Vargas says "Cameron and I are just very good friends." "She and I were enjoying a quiet dinner together and that is it. We are not dating as we are good friends."
Eva Vargas is Engaged
---I am Happily Engaged
Eva Vargas has a big announcement; the Gen-TV Studios President is engaged to be married. Vargas announced her engagement at Gen-TV's Emmy party and shocked the crowd with the announcement that she is engaged to marry French-Canadian Fashion Designer Seline Tompkins; 42 of Quebec, Canada (by way of Paris, France).
Vargas confirms that she and Seline Tompkins have been dating for almost six months and that "they plan to spend the rest of their lives together." Her marriage to Tompkins will be Vargas's second marriage and Tompkins third. Tompkins was married to Canadian Real Estate Mogul Colin St. Pierre from 1999 until his death from colon cancer in 2004. In 2006 she married (in Canada) Canadian Chef, Sheryl Bouvier; and they divorced in 2013. Vargas was married to Alexander Vargas for twenty-three years, with their divorce being finalized earlier in 2018.
Upon marrying Eva, the plan is that Tompkins will move to the USA and seek a dual citizenship with the USA and her native Canada. She plans to launch her first American fashion line in 2019; until now her designs have been exclusively available in Canada, the UK and France.

factsoflife 09-19-2018, 09:36 PM Gen-TV's Saturday Success:
---Reality Series Boast Gen-TV To Saturday Win
The return of "High School Diaries: Freshman Year" was the #1 rated series on Saturday night, winning both Women 18-49 and Teens 12-16 easily. The broadcast was watched by 20.1 million viewers and 5.8 in the 18-49 demo.
At 9pm, the series premiere of "Switching Places" netted 19.3 million viewers and a 5.8 in demos. A strong start.
Gen-TV's hour of comedy from 8-9 was a bona-fide success as well; with "The Special Classroom" opening its second season at 17.2 million viewers and a 4.6 in demos. Meanwhile, the series debut of "Our Pet Dragon" was watched by 15.1 million viewers and netted a 3.8 in demos; showing it has plenty of room to grow.
Here are the full highlights:
Saturday, September 15:
8pm: The Special Classroom (New, Season Premiere) : 17.2 million/4.6 (4.63)
830: Our Pet Dragon (New, Series Premiere): 15.1 million/3.8 (3.84) 18-49
9pm: Switching Places (New, Series Premiere): 19.3 million/5.8 (5.83) 18-49
10pm: High School Diaries: Freshman Year (New, Season Premiere): 20.1 million/5.8 (5.88) 18-49
Gen-TV's Sunday and Monday Ratings:
Sunday, September 16:
---Sitcom Surges while reality settles
While reality series "Chef's House" saw its numbers settle downward; Gen-TV's second Sunday of the season was an overall success with new sitcom "Ready To Wear" surging upwards in demos. At 9pm, "Cafe Oddity" saw a downtick in demos, and a slight uptick in total viewers.
The bad news is that "The Mulroney Mysteries" continues to see its numbers diminish; a sad state of affairs for what was once a thriving brand.
--8pm: Chef's House (New): 13.1 million/4.1 (4.11) 18-49
9pm: Cafe Oddity (New): 22.9 million/4.3 (4.32) 18-49

Gen-TV's Marvelous Monday
---"Kate & Ali" grows week to week, #2 in demos opposite Emmy Awards
Gen-TV's second Monday of the season was a marvelous success. Gen-TV rated #2 for the evening after NBC's telecast of the Emmy Awards. "Kate & Ali" grew week to week in both demos and total viewers; while "Every Other Weekend" slightly decreased over last week.
"Grounded" was able to maintain the gains it made last week and trended slightly upward in demos. The bleeding seems to have stalled at "Trauma Center" where ratings returned to its normal numbers.
8pm: Hart of Family (New): 17 million/5.8 (5.84) 18-49
830: Every Other Weekend (New): 19.4 million/3.9 (3.92) 18-49
.

8- College - REVIVAL PREMIERE - 12.42 million viewers and 3.8 (3.821) A18-49, which is actually up six tenths from its season five premiere way back on September 20, 2012 (six years ago). Given the way the television landscape has changed over the previous six years, this is a huge win for YTN. College didn't come anywhere close to its series high 7.2, but nobody was expecting a 6.0 demo, nor anything close to a 4.0. Obviously these ratings will not hold in the coming weeks, but YTN got its revival sampled.
830- Sanchez's in the Suburbs - SERIES PREMIERE - 9.21 million viewers and 2.5 (2.531) A18-49. From our records, this looks to be YTN's highest rated new comedy since Blended premiered to a 3.2 back in January 2016. Sanchez's in the Suburbs also skewed a lot older than its young-skewing College lead in with retention at 74% in total viewers, and 66% in the demo (still pretty acceptable, given the huge number). Again, how it holds over the coming weeks will be important, but this is a massive kickstart for YTN's comedy lineup.
9- Full Time Mom - 6TH SEASON PREMIERE - 8.95 million viewers and 2.2 (2.211) A18-49, up five tenths from last years season premiere and its best number since the season four premiere (also a 2.2 demo). This episode skewed younger than any episode from last season, obviously helped by the younger-skewing halo at the top of the night. Seems like there is still a bit of life left in the veteran comedy.
930- Parkway Motel - SERIES PREMIERE - 8.25 million viewers and 1.9 (1.909) A18-49, down three tenths from its lead in. Had it not been for Sanchez's earlier in the night, Parkway Motel would rate as the best comedy premiere for YTN since Life Lessons two years ago did the same 1.9 demo. The inflated audience from earlier in the night had obviously dissipated by the time 930 rolled around, but consider this a solid start for the newest YTN comedy.
10- TAKEN - 10TH SEASON PREMIERE - 12.49 million viewers and 2.0 (2.012) A18-49, slightly above last years season premiere (1.951). YTN started and ended the night with nearly identical viewership, but TAKEN had almost half the demo as College. After ten years, its clear TAKEN has another ten years left in it at this point. Half hour: 2.003/2.021
During premiere week, YTN's numbers will be posted night by night, before reverting to weekly numbers next week.
Up tomorrow, YTN has the season premieres of LOOKING FOR LOVE, REVOLUTION, and TAKEN: PHOENIX
yankeesrj12 09-20-2018, 06:22 PM Wednesday, September 19, 2018
8- Looking for Love - 19TH SEASON PREMIERE - 6.02 million viewers and 1.4 (1.440) A18-49, down almost a full point from its massive premiere last fall, and down five tenths from the spring edition for its lowest debut ever. There are still a few episodes below it to become a series low, but this is a very rough start for a show that typically loses viewers as the season progresses (before gaining them back for the finale). Half hour: 1.448/1.432
9- Revolution - 4TH SEASON PREMIERE - 5.94 million viewers and 1.4 (1.383) A18-49, down four tenths from its season three, part B season premiere back in October 2017. Again, this is not a series low for Revolution, but its quite close (1.313) on November 27, 2017. Half hour: 1.374/1.391
10- TAKEN: Phoenix - 9TH SEASON PREMIERE - 10.04 million viewers and 1.3 (1.332) A18-49, down three tenths Fromm last years season premiere, and one tenth from its season finale. Overall, a very 'meh' start for the veteran drama in the demo, but still a stout performer with total viewers. Half hour: 1.338/1.326
During premiere week, YTN's numbers will be posted night by night, before reverting to weekly numbers next week.

---Gen-TV Cancels Mulroney Mysteries
After seeing ratings declining for the last year and a half, Gen-TV has finally pulled the plug on "The Mulroney Mysteries". Once a highly-watched series that would routinely garner more than a 12 share in demos, the series most recent episode netted only a 2.4 in demos; a stark contrast to previous seasons. In households it's even worse as the series has fallen from an average of over 50 million viewers in season one, to currently averaging just over 12 million an episode this season.
Combined with mounting production costs, the decline of viewers has finally become too difficult for Gen-TV to justify its continued production. The series will be pulled from the schedule effective immediately and production on the show has been shut down and will not resume. Producers were notified on Thursday (9/20) of the cancellation and production was halted in the middle of working on episode three of an eight episode order.
Reruns of "Trauma Center" will fill its timeslot until a replacement series is named later this week.

8- Mother & Daughter - 8TH SEASON PREMIERE - 6.98 million viewers and 1.5 (1.529) A18-49, down two tenths from last years Sunday premiere, and the same amount from its Tuesday premiere in early January. Compared to its season finale, Mother & Daughter was up nearly a full two tenths. Given this is its third timeslot in less than a year, this is a very solid number for YTN's now longest-running comedy.
830- Blended - 4TH SEASON PREMIERE - 6.29 million viewers and 1.4 (1.408) A18-49, down four tenths from last years season premiere, but even with its season finale. Besides the finale, this was the best performance for Blended since it did a 1.484 on January 18th (with a bigger lead in). This should be somewhat of a boost of confidence for the series, since it is pulling in the same number without Behind the Scenes as it was with it last season.
9- The Hughes Family - 6TH SEASON PREMIERE - 7.14 million viewers and 1.6 (1.598) A18-49, down eight tenths from last years season premiere, but even with its season finale. The Hughes Family crashed pretty hard last year, so YTN must be breathing somewhat of a sigh of relief that it is on the upper end of its ratings from season five (and best performance since January 18th's 1.701).
930- Life Lessons - 3RD SEASON PREMIERE - 6.13 million viewers and 1.5 (1.485) A18-49, down two tenths from last years season premiere, but up two tenths from its season finale. Similar to Mother & Daughter, Life Lessons is also in it's third different timeslot in less than a year. The fifteen minute breakdown shows the pre-tune in audience for Virus:1.269/1.700
10- Virus - 6TH SEASON PREMIERE - 12.39 million viewers and 5.0 (5.024) A18-49, up another five tenths from last falls premiere, and three tenths from its season finale for a new all time series high. Virus has set a series high in each of its season premiere since debuting back in the 2013-2014 season. The question becomes: when will the show stop growing? YTN hopes never, but it has to come sometime, right? Half hours: 4.802/5.246
During premiere week, YTN's numbers will be posted night by night, before reverting to weekly numbers next week.
Up tomorrow, YTN has the season premieres LIFE AFTER PRISON and SERVE AND PROTECT, followed by the series premiere of PICTURE PERFECT.
factsoflife 09-21-2018, 06:37 PM Gen-TV Family Comedies Down Slightly
---"Magic School" returns down from last season
The big story on Gen-TV Tuesday night was the return of family-friendly comedies "Magic School", "Fish Out Of Water" and "Zendaya." While "Zendaya" and "Fish Out Of Water" returned on-par with last season; "Magic School" returned to 12.8 million viewers and a 3.5 in demos; down significantly from last season. Though this could be a fluke, it will be interesting to see if it can rebound in the coming weeks. This series is a valuable franchise for Gen-TV; routinely raking in millions of dollars in ad revenue and merchandising.
Elsewhere on the schedule; grown-up comedy "Making It Work" returned for its sixth season to 22.4 million viewers and a 5.3 in demos; actually up significantly from a year ago.
Another big story was the series premiere of cop-drama "Boston Blues"; which debuted to a strong 16.8 million viewers and a 4.6 in demos. Given the fantastic reviews this show has gotten and the pre-premiere buzz surrounding it, these numbers are very strong.
Here are the full highlights:
8pm: Fish Out Of Water (Season Premiere; New): 18.3 million/4.5 (4.54) 18-49
830: Magic School (Season Premiere; New): 12.8 million/3.5 (3.53) 18-49
9: Zendaya (Season Premiere; New): 17.6 million/4.4 (4.42) 18-49
930: Making It Work (Season Premiere; New): 22.4 million/5.3 (5.32) 18-49

Gen-TV Networks Mixed Bag on Wednesday
---Returning favorites remain strong; new comedy starts softly
Wednesday, September 12, 2018:
While Gen-TV's three returning comedies; "Unlikely Family", "Running In Circles" and "Threesome" all returned to strong numbers on Wednesday night, all three were down considerably from averages a year-ago.
The strongest of the three, "Unlikely Family" opened its third season to 17.5 million viewers and a 3.6 in demos. While still a strong performance it is down quite a bit from an average of 20.3 million and 4.4 in demos it had last season.
The softest of the three was "Running In Circles" which returned to 14.3 million and 2.6 in demos. However, this is the series fourth season so an erosion of viewers is predictable.
Freshmen comedy "Baker's Dozen" opened to a soft start with 7.4 million viewers and a 2.5 in demos. These kind of numbers have gotten other Gen-TV comedies cancelled.
Returning drama "American Citizen" opened its second season to a whopping 63.4 million viewers and a 14.2 in demos. This performance nearly matches its debut a year ago.
Here are the full highlights:
8pm: Unlikely Family (New; Season Premiere): 17.5 million/3.6 (3.64) 18-49
830: Baker's Dozen (New; Series Premiere): 7.4 million/2.5 (2.51) 18-49
9: Running In Circles (New; Season Premiere): 14.3 million/2.6 (2.64) 18-49
930: Threesome (New; Season Premiere-Final Season): 15.8 million/4.2 (4.21) 18-49

yankeesrj12 09-23-2018, 12:42 AM Friday, September 21, 2018
8- Life after Prison - 3RD SEASON PREMIERE - 5.34 million viewers and 0.5 (0.507) A18-49, down a tenth from last years season premiere, but even with its season finale. Life after Prison has never been a strong performer for YTN, so they had to know this was going to be the result. Half hour: 0.484/0.529
9- Serve and Protect - 3RD SEASON PREMIERE - 8.09 million viewers and 0.7 (0.710) A18-49, down a tenth from last years season premiere, but in line with its 0.739 season two finale. Again, YTN was probably not expecting much else here, since Serve and Protect hovered in the 0.6-0.8 range most of last season (and the random .931 in early February). To that point though, YTN will likely never be able to build a night around Serve and Protect. Half hour: 0.689/0.731
10- Picture Perfect - SERIES PREMIERE - 3.01 million viewers and 0.3 (0.323) A18-49, down four tenths from its lead in. With this disastrous performance, YTN officially has its first bomb of the season. Picture Perfect now represents the lowest series premiere in YTN history, in all measures - total viewership, 18-49, 18-34, 25-54, 54+, and every male/female breakdown. Not only was Picture Perfect blasted by critics (it has a 0 on both Metacritic and Rotten Tomatoes), but it was pushed into the worst timeslot. Given this was a family drama at its core, dumping it on Friday nights at 10, behind a dark cop procedural, was a bizarre and terrible fit. It seems as if YTN knew it made a mistake and dumped Picture Perfect where it could do the least amount of damage. YTN has never had a scripted series premiere below an 0.8 during the regular season, and Picture Perfect blew that record out of the water. Last season, YTN waited three weeks before yanking four new freshman series off the air, and that was after dropping to 0.4s and 0.5s - not 0.3s. We could see YTN pull this very quickly, especially with such a stacked bench of series waiting to air. Half hour numbers: 0.345/0.301
factsoflife 09-24-2018, 12:51 AM Doug Bartell's Homecoming
--Executive Rehired at Gen-TV
Eva Vargas; President of Gen-TV Studios has hired her very first underlying since taking office over a year ago. She has tapped former Gen-TV Studios President Doug Bartell to be her second-in-command and assume the newly created role of Vice President, Gen-TV Studios. In this position Bartell will assume primary responsibility for programming and creative decisions at Gen-TV Network and Stream-Me; the Gen-TV owned streaming site. This will free Eva Vargas up for the more pressing business issues of running a television studio and to deal with the concerns of the board of directors.
Doug Bartell served as President of Gen-TV Studios from 2011-2012, and also held the titles of CEO and CFO at the same time. Due to network politics and in particular what was seen as a failing primetime lineup at the time, Bartell was fired in 2012. A few years later in 2014 he was rehired by the network to serve as Vice President of Gen-TV Studios which at the time was essentially the same functional role as being President of Gen-TV Network. Due to personal problems and mistrust with the board of directors he was let-go from his role in 2015. In 2015, Doug suffered what was then thought to be a debilitating brain aneurysm; but he made a swift and remarkable recovery shortly thereafter.
In 2017, Bartell married Cain Wentworth, a former President of Gen-TV and his former best friend with whom he had a public falling out in 2015. Wentworth is currently the President of Gen-TV's Board of Directors; a role that Bartell himself ran for.

YTN YANKS "PICTURE PERFECT" FROM THE SCHEDULE
Effective immediately, YTN has pulled Picture Perfect from the schedule after two very low-rated episodes.
Picture Perfect debuted last Friday as the lowest rated scripted series in network history (yes, even including summer series). No series on the network had every debuted below an 0.8 demo before last weeks disastrous 0.3 premiere. It was only a matter of time before YTN pulled the plug on the drama.
After last nights episode below an 0.2 demo (a 0.179 to be exact), YTN has removed the show from its schedule. YTN says all remaining episodes (there are 6 more filmed) will be released on YTN Everywhere, the streaming service from YTN. Production has shut down immediately.
In the place of Picture Perfect, YTN is slating the fifth season of previous summer drama, Second Chance. Many in the industry are surprised YTN is going with an out-of-network production to fill the void on Friday nights, but it is a cheap option that will instantly increase ratings. The fifth season of Second Chance is set to consist of 15 episodes, and will debut next Friday (October 5th). This will be the first time the series has aired on Friday nights, but it has always done okay in its summer timeslot over the last four years.
As for the rest of YTN's freshman series, there is no word yet on possible episode extensions, but it doesn't sound like anything will be pulled soon. In with the In-Laws is the lowest rated scripted freshman on the schedule. It does have its fans within the network, and we hear they are waiting to see more data before making any decisions. New Tuesday night comedies Sanchez's in the Suburbs and Parkway Motel are both looking good for full-season orders, especially with the halo of College leading off the night.
Speaking of College, there is still no word on any order past the initial 13 episodes. Network officials originally stated 13 episodes was most likely all for season one, but after the mega return, it seems unlikely it'll be capped at 13. Some network insiders tell us the network is hoping for at least 20 episodes, slightly under the standard 26 episodes for YTN series. Others tell us the network is in early discussions with the show runner and creator for additional episodes.

Network Rewards Promising Shows
Gen-TV Network is showing great faith in several of their series that have performed well so-far this season. The network has ordered additional episodes of freshmen series "Switching Places"; upping the number of episodes from six to eighteen, giving the reality series a full-season. Since premiering earlier this month the program has averaged a 5.2 in demos; a strong launch.
Gen-TV is also ordering more episodes of first-year drama "Boston Blues" upping that series from six episodes to a whooping thirty-five episodes. Gen-TV Vice President Doug Bartell explains "The original six episode order was the standard order we gave to most of our freshmen series but Boston Blues has performed exceptionally well and has more than earned these extra episodes." "The reaction from our audience is crystal clear; they want more episodes of Boston Blues and they want them sooner instead of later."
Four freshmen comedies are also seeing extra episodes ordered; "Ready To Wear"; is being upped to twenty-eight episodes (from an initial order of twenty-two). The series debut marked Gen-TV's strongest comedy launch in years and ranks among the largest comedy debuts on network TV in decades.
The other three series are "Our Pet Dragon" (getting thirteen episodes up from six); "Baker's Dozen" (twelve episodes up from six) and "Kate & Ali" (twenty-two episodes up from thirteen.)
Lastly, Gen-TV is also giving additional episodes to "Grounded" a sophomore comedy that has seen marked improvement over last year. The series is currently averaging a 4.2 in demos; up from 2.1 last season. It is going up to eighteen episodes from six.

The series was moved from a cushy Tuesday timeslot last season where it was sandwiched between "Fish Out Of Water" and "Magic School" to a new Friday night slot where it was leading off the night.
Gen-TV is also moving freshmen comedy "Baker's Dozen" to Friday Nights at 830pm, following "Raising Grandma" in hopes of giving the series a boost on a less competitive night. While it was garnering respectable household numbers it was getting slaughtered in demos where it was loosing too much of "Unlikely Family's" audience.
Here are the changes being made (effective immediately):
Wednesday Nights:
8pm: Head Of Household (New Timeslot; Moves from Friday)
830: Unlikely Family (New Timeslot; Moves from 8pm)
9pm: Running In Circles (Final Season)
930: Threesome (Final Season)
10: American Citizen
Friday Nights:
8pm: Raising Grandma (Final Season; New Timeslot; moves from 830pm)
830: Baker's Dozen (Moves from Wednesday Night)
9: Deadly Visions
10: Blood Rush

8- The Weakest Link - 4.92 million viewers and 0.8 (0.801) A18-49, down another two tenths from last week. This is getting into some pretty rough territory. Half hour: 0.805/0.796
9- Adventure of a Lifetime - 5.18 million viewers and 1.0 (1.002) A18-49, even with last week. Given its lead in is down again, the stability for freshman Adventure of a Lifetime is notable. Half hour: 0.954/1.050
10- Day in the Life - 4.01 million viewers and 0.7 (0.719) A18-49, slightly up from last week. Half hour: 0.741/0.696
Monday, October 1, 2018
8- Soccer Stories - 5.28 million viewers and 1.0 (1.016) A18-49, even with last week.
830- In with the In-Laws - 4.02 million viewers and 0.7 (0.739) A18-49, down a couple ticks, and enough for it to be down from last weeks rounded 0.8. Retention from its lead in is not bad, but it may not be enough to get an episode extension.
9- CIA Files - 11.21 million viewers and 1.8 (1.794) A18-49, down two tenths from last week. Half hour: 1.795/1.793
10- LAPD Unit 7 - 9.98 million viewers and 1.4 (1.401) A18-49, down two tenths from last week. Half hour: 1.397/1.404
Tuesday, October 2, 2018
8- College - 8.01 million viewers and 2.5 (2.501) A18-49, down five tenths from last weeks episode. This is still a really great performance from College, and continues to be the youngest-skewing series on YTN.
830- Sanchez's in the Suburbs - 7.73 million viewers and 1.7 (1.693) A18-49, down two tenths from last week. Look at how much older Sanchez's skews than College (near perfection retention in total viewers), but younger-skewing than the Monday or Thursday comedies. College is definitely bringing some younger viewers into the fray.
9- Full Time Mom - 7.01 million viewers and 1.5 (1.502) A18-49, down a rough four tenths from last week.
930- Parkway Motel - 6.73 million viewers and 1.4 (1.398) A18-49, down two tenths from last week.
10- TAKEN - 10.82 million viewers and 1.5 (1.529) A18-49, even with last week. Half hour: 1.529/1.529

YTN EXTENDS THREE FRESHMAN TO FULL SEASONS
After three weeks on the air, YTN is ready to give three freshman series the go-ahead to produce full 26 episode seasons. Getting those nods are freshman breakout comedies Sanchez's in the Suburbs and Parkway Motel, as well as hit drama LAPD Unit 7. All three were expected to get episode extensions.
In a statement, President of YTN says, "We are elated to have these three freshman perform at such an exceptional level. All three bring unique storylines to our viewers television sets, and they have rewarded us with massive ratings. This is a very exciting time for YTN to find three breakout hits, especially during our tenth anniversary season."
Sanchez's in the Suburbs has greatly benefited from airing in the post-College timeslot, and is the most-watched new comedy since Blended in 2015. Through its first three episodes, Sanchez's in the Suburbs is averaging 8.34 million viewers and 2.048 18-49. For its series premiere, Sanchez's in the Suburbs jumped 54% in L+7 ratings to a whopping 3.9 18-49.
Airing in the Tuesday 930 timeslot, Parkway Motel is averaging 7.36 million viewers and 1.643 A18-49 through its first three episodes. The glow of the College lead off is pretty much gone by 930, so these are exceptional numbers for the series. In its series premiere episode, Parkway Motel grew 68% to a huge 3.2 A18-49 in L+7 data. Had it not been for Sanchez's earlier in the night, Parkway Motel would have been the highest-rated new comedy since Life Lessons in 2016.
Finally, Monday night drama LAPD Unit 7 is dominating its 10 o'clock timeslot with 10.36 million viewers and 1.566 A18-49, holding a large majority of its CIA Files lead in (about 85% in total viewers). Over the course of the three weeks on the air, CIA Files has lost only one million viewers - a strong hold for a freshman drama series. In L+7 numbers, LAPD Unit 7 skyrocketed a crazy 100%, to a 3.4 A18-49 - the highest-rated new drama for YTN in three seasons (CIA Files).
As for the surprise holdout, there is still no word on an episode extension for College. YTN also did not have any information for new Monday night comedy In with the In-Laws or Sunday night reality competition Adventure of a Lifetime.

10- Virus - 9.27 million viewers and 3.9 (3.929) A18-49, down five tenths from last week. Even with the drop, Virus was ahead of last years comparable episode by a tenth. Half hours: 3.673/4.184

10- Second Chance - 5TH SEASON PREMIERE - 5.29 million viewers and 0.5 (0.525) A18-49, hitting a new series low in the demo (although its close to the 0.597 on June 28th). The older-skewing night, coupled with the old-skewing lead in, added a few eyeballs, but the drop in the demo was a tad concerning. In either case, this is a vast improvement over Picture Perfect the last two weeks. Half hour: 0.534/0.516

--What Are Gen-TV's Development Goals?
Gen-TV's newly minted Vice President Doug Bartell (returning to a role he previously held) was on-hand at a recent event for the television critics association and was asked to discuss the networks current line-up and their development goals for the future, here are some highlights from the event.
"New Dramas, New Comedies":
One of the major discussion topics appeared to be Gen-TV's ever-growing slate of comedy series, which are booming this season thanks to high profile launches for "Ready To Wear", "Kate & Ali" and "Cafe Oddity"; which joined rock-solid performers "Selling Out", "The Boss Lady" and "Making It Work." Bartell discussed those big launches and the effect they've had on Gen-TV's comedy philosophy saying "It has created a seismic shift in how we'll develop comedies going forward." "In particular the strong debut and subsequent ratings for Kate & Ali and Ready To Wear reminded us of a fact we lost track of years ago; that adults will watch well written comedies marketed to them." "Comedies do not have to be just for kids." It would appear a huge focus going forward is going to be finding series to replicate these sort of successes; he says "Last season we saw huge comedy launches for The Boss Lady, Unemployed and this season we launched three more massive comedies and this has reminded us that we don't have to rely solely on children's sitcoms to succeed."
Indeed this seems to be a trend, as Gen-TV's once powerful children's series are all experiencing a decline of sorts; "Head of Household" has been shedding viewers in demos; a time-period switch to Friday nights resulted in a nearly 85% drop in viewers over last year. "Magic School" while still strong in demos is also showing minor signs of viewer fatigue, but perhaps the most distressing symptom for Gen-TV Studios is an unexplainable 74% drop in merchandising revenue for their pre-school series; "Magic School", "Fish Out Of Water", "The Special Classroom", "Head of Household" and "Zendaya". Even despite a new entry this season, "Our Pet Dragon", they have not been able to replicate the once powerful merchandising revenue they were making.
Another trend they've realized is the need to develop "a new generation of drama series as our current drama line-up is growing stale." Last season they wrapped the runs of two major performers, "Sisters" after twelve seasons and "The Mallory's of Jefferson County" after six seasons. They recently cancelled "The Mulroney Mysteries"; a third-season drama that has seen a nearly 89% drop that started in its second season.
The breakout success of freshmen drama "Boston Blues" serves as a catalyst for a renewed effort to "find drama pilots that take a familiar concept and put a fresh modern take on it." In this case the crime procedural which has grown stale in recent years is reinvented as a socially relevant, forward-thinking soap opera with crime elements. Bartell says "Between the success of Boston Blues and the realization that many of our current dramas are aging or nearing their natural conclusions we've decided to push for increased drama development; focusing on unique pilots that will showcase a diverse array of ideas."

factsoflife 10-15-2018, 07:06 PM Three Series Cancelled
---Gen-TV Pulls Struggling Programs
Gen-TV has pulled the plug on three series which have struggled to gain an audience this season. The first, a freshmen comedy "A Good Ten Years" never really took off in the midst of continued creative changes behind the scenes and scathing reviews. It has been pulled from the schedule immediately and will be replaced with a brand new comedy "All Mixed Up" debuting next week.
The second series getting axed today is sophomore dramedy "High Functioning Adults" which has seen a nearly 85% drop in viewers since last season and most recently posted a .94 in demos narrowly getting defeated by The CW's "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" this week. It will be replaced on the schedule by various reruns until January.
lastly, Gen-TV has pulled the plug on failing mini-series "Blood Rush" which has been unable to attract an audience all season. Reruns of "Deadly Visions" will fill in until January.

yankeesrj12 10-18-2018, 12:26 PM THE HOLLYWOOD INSIDER
YTN CAPS "COLLEGE" AT 13 EPISODES, ONE HOUR SEASON FINALE SCHEDULED
After weeks of wondering if YTN would shift gears and extend College beyond its initial 13 episodes, YTN confirmed the revival series will conclude its season in December. The network said the decision comes down to casting, and that everyone signed on for only 13 episodes. Filming for the season will conclude before the Thanksgiving holiday, giving cast members time to find new projects.
Even though YTN announced the revival would contain only 13 episodes in its first season, many believed after the monstrous start that YTN would extend College to at least 18 episodes. Insiders tell us the network did not even attempt to discuss with cast members or the crew about anything beyond 13 episodes. YTN also did not mention anything for a second season, although that may come at a later date when new contracts are discussed.
College kicked off its revival season with 12.42 million viewers and 3.8 A18-49, the highest rated comedy on YTN in two and a half years. It not only got off to a strong start itself, but also helped Sanchez's in the Suburbs become the top rated new comedy of the season, and Parkway Motel as the number two new comedy of the season. College has settled down in recent weeks, but still ranks as the number two comedy in all of television (behind The Big Bang Theory) and is the highest rated comedy on YTN by a wide margin.
The question now is what will fill the timeslot left behind? YTN has a slew of series waiting on the bench, but nothing reaches the heights of College. YTN very well could shift promising new comedy Sanchez's in the Suburbs up a half hour, but that does run a significant risk of audiences fleeing. No matter what YTN does with the night, it will be down from the heights of its current lineup.
The one hour season finale of College is scheduled for Tuesday, December 11th, with Sanchez's in the Suburbs pre-empted on the night.

factsoflife 10-27-2018, 10:46 PM Gen-TV lands Transgressions in put pilot deal
---Laverne Cox to star in drama noir series
Gen-TV is getting into the Laverne Cox game in a big way. The network has signed the "Orange Is the New Black" Emmy-Nominee to star in "Transgressions" best described as "a noir-style mystery with a killer twist and featuring trans actors in nearly every principle role." Ryan Murphy is producing the series, but will not have a day to day role on the series; which earned a put-pilot commitment from Gen-TV and has Cox attached to star in what insiders describe as "A star-making role; the role that will make Cox a household name and will likely earn the actress her first Emmy Award."
The plot details are being kept top secret for now, but sources say "it is hands down the best script of the season."
It is being considered for a spot on Gen-TV's January 2019 schedule.

factsoflife 10-28-2018, 09:18 PM Gen-TV Updates Tagline/Graphics
--Gen-TV gets new tagline and logo
Gen-TV is updating its tagline and logo for the first time since 2016. The current logo featuring GEN-TV in rainbow print accompanied by a shooting star image will be phased out and replaced over the next six weeks with a brand new image, featuring the word GEN-TV in lowercase letters, except for the G in Gen and the T in TV. (Example: Gen-Tv). Instead of featuring the letters in rainbow colored print, each letter of Gen-Tv will now be in bright gold lettering. This is a stark contrast to previous iterations of the Gen-TV logo which usually featured red or rainbow lettering.
The network is also phasing out its current tagline "Bold, Brave & Unique" to the slightly different "Gen-TV: 10 Years And More To Come" The new tagline created by the ad agency of Maxwell & O'Malley (the same firm who created the 2016 logo and tagline) was chosen to celebrate Gen-Tv's 10th anniversary and to thank fans for brining Gen-Tv programs into their home for the last ten years. It was also chosen as a way of reminding viewers that Gen-TV is here to stay and will continue to provide amazing programming for years to come.
Gen-TV officially debuted as a network in August 2009 when its predecessor Hidden Gems Network (HGN) changed its name to Gen-TV which at the time stood for Generation-Television. At the time, HGN a network devoted to rare and obscure television programming opted to change its focus to a more general entertainment format with a slight emphasis on programming aimed at Generation-X; or programming that originally aired between the 1970's and 1990's. Over time the focus of the network shifted until it became what Gen-Tv is known for today. The addition of original programming in primetime is what set the course for the network we know today and what actually caused executives to change the name of the network to Gen-TV.
Starting in July 2018 and going all season long, Gen-Tv will celebrate its 10th anniversary in grand style with several tritube and anniversary specials planned for the season. In October 2018, Gen-TV will air its 2 1/2 hour "10th Anniversary Dinner Special" which will feature "a look back at the 10 year history of Gen-TV network and celebrate the programming, personalities and perseverance that brought Gen-TV to the top of its game." It will feature endless clips from Gen-TV series both present and past, speeches from the persons involved in those programs and plenty of musical guests, comedy surprises and other memorable moments!
Gen-TV Pushes Anniversary Special
---New November Airdate Set
Gen-TV has set a new airdate of November 11th (Monday) for a 10th Anniversary special that was originally scheduled to air in October. The program "Gen-TV's 10th Anniversary Dinner Special" was postponed due to scheduling conflicts.
The entire 2 1/2 hour special was pre-recorded back in January and features no live elements.

factsoflife 10-31-2018, 11:29 PM Breaking Report:
Ahead of UpFronts Cleans House
---Network axes "Nicki J's World"
Ahead of it's planned UpFront Presentation which will go forward even if there is a writers strike announced tomorrow, Gen-TV Network has made some last minute cancellations, axing comedies "Nicki J's World" and "Peretti Rules"; both of which were fully expected to come back in some form. The network has also officially cancelled their TV movie franchise, and according to Ross Chin, Gen-TV's President "will be looking to a different format for our award-winning, highly rated television films and mini-series." Sources indicate that Gen-TV plans to shift production and broadcasting of these projects to Stream-ME, the Gen-TV funded streaming site and that "only certain high profile projects will air on Gen-TV Network; but not as part of an ongoing series like has always been done." Insiders at Gen-TV explain that "the financials involved in producing these high scale events are just too much to keep up with; even for a profitable network like Gen-TV." Other insiders tell us that it is possible Gen-TV could reconsider this idea and resume production on TV films later in the season.
The cancellation of "Nicki J's World" is something of a shock, considering it was once a highly performing series, but in its second season the ratings have dropped nearly 40% in all demos; especially as Nicki Minaj's popularity overall declines. The axing of "Peretti Rules" is also something of a stunner; as it was widely expected to return in some form; the series has been a favorite of Ross Chin's since it was developed.
Gen-TV Bringing Back TV Movies & Mini-Series:
--Network to revive Original Movies
Nearly a year after ceasing production on original movies and mini-series, Gen-TV is announcing they are reviving their award-winning franchise of original television films and mini-series; albeit on a down-sized scale. They announced an expansive slate of films and mini-series today that will air throughout 2019 and into 2020.
Among the highlights are the announcement of two high-profile reunion films which are sure to be ratings-grabbers. The first set to air at an unspecified date in 2019 is a "Sisters" reunion movie featuring cast members of Gen-TV's longest-running drama series ever as they reunite nearly a year after the series wrapped its twelve year run in 2018.
The second, set to air in 2020 is a reunion featuring cast members of "The Mallory's of Jefferson County" as the continuing political saga of the Mallory family of the fictional Jefferson County.
Other film titles include the coming-of-age melodrama "Maria's Quinceanera" focused on the dramatic events that happen to a family in the days before and after their fifteen year old daughter Maria's coming of age party. An all-star cast is being assembled including Gen-TV favorites Eva Longoria and Maria Conchita Alonso. Longoria is serving as an executive producer on the project.
and lastly, this slate also includes the highly-anticipated reboots of Fugitive Recovery and The Border Police; which will both return in 2019 as special limited event mini-series. Specific details on both will be announced at a later date.
Gen-TV cancelled production on their award-winning mini-series and TV movies nearly a year ago in a cost-cutting measure implemented by Ross Chin, a former Gen-TV President. That move saved the network nearly 7.3 million dollars; but cost them a lot of critical acclaim and award-season buzz. The new slate of films and mini-series is being produced at a reduced cost scale and utilizes a lot of independent film resources.
factsoflife 11-01-2018, 06:19 PM Very Pretty Girls Update:
--E! scores Big!
E! network has scored a major victory in the ratings for the fourth season of Gen-TV Produced reality series "Very Nice Girls: Manhattan Debutaunts". The series premiere in January was watched by 3.2 million viewers and netted a 4.2 in demos. This easily outranked the most-recent season of E!'s "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" which hasn't even earned a million viewers yet. In subsequent weeks, "Very Nice Girls" held steady earning an average audience of 3.8 million viewers and a 4.5 in demos.
The season finale aired April 10th and earned 4.5 million viewers and 3.8 in demos.
E! already renewed the series for a fifth season, which will debut in June alongside the first season of its second spin-off "Very Nice Girls: Oklahoma City". Anticipation for that spin-off is very high, as the series first spin-off, "Very Nice Girls: Dallas Debutatunts" debuted in November 2017 to 3.9 million viewers and a 3.8 in demos. The second season of that series premieres in August 2018; due to a delay in production after a cast member fell ill with cancer and production was stalled so she could participate.
After airing for two seasons on WE TV, "Very Nice Girls" (now called Very Nice Girls: Manhattan Debutaunts) moved to E! after a licensing deal with WE couldn't be worked out; ratings improved and the series has earned Gen-TV Studios and E! millions of dollars.
NOTE: In a previous article we referred to the series by the wrong title; "Very Pretty Girls" which was a working title used during development. The actual title of this franchise is "Very Nice Girls".
Gen-TV Studios News:
E! Renews Very Nice Girls Franchise
Gen-TV Studios scored a very huge win today as E! Network has announced a expansive renewal of the "Very Nice Girls" franchise, renewing all three series for additional seasons, and ordering several more spin-off series in a move to expand this popular reality franchise.
First the good news, the original series "Very Nice Girls: New York" (Aka Manhattan Debutantes) has been renewed for seasons six, seven and eight to air on E! in 2019, 2020 and 2021.
Next up, the network has ordered third, fourth and fifth seasons of "Very Nice Girls: Dallas" and has ordered second, third and fourth seasons of "Very Nice Girls: Oklahoma City." The next season of both will debut in second quarter of 2019.
As for the spin-off's, E! has ordered the following spin-off series:
"Very Nice Nightlife: New York": This reality series will feature several of the older cast members from the New York franchise as they explore "the ins and outs of New York's robust night club scene." It is being described as "The Hills in New York." This series will debut in Summer 2019.
"Very Nice Girls: New Orleans": This series will expand the VNG universe to the southern city of New Orleans and explore a culturally diverse city. It will debut at an unspecified date in 2019.
"Very Nice Girls: Atlanta": This series brings the VNG world to Atlanta to focus more on the hip-hop culture. It will debut in 2020.

factsoflife 11-09-2018, 09:03 PM Gen-TV strikes gold with interracial comedy
----All Mixed Up garners solid ratings and rave reviews
Gen-TV has seemingly struck gold with their new comedy series "All Mixed Up"; a fresh take on the concept of a family comedy. This program while entertaining also focuses on social issues. Focused on the Gray family; comprised of Michael Gray (Jerrod Carmichael) and his wife Emily Gray (Joanna Garcia-Swisher) who have been married for only a few months; and the six kids they have between them, ranging in age from 12 to 18. The comedy doesn't waste time getting to the source of the conflict (and comedy) for this family comprised of a black father and a white mother in suburban Ohio.
The tone of this show is somewhere between 70's Norman Lear comedies (think "All In The Family") and 90's family-friendly ABC TGIF comedies (think "Step By Step") and is smartly written, focusing on how these issues face this particular family and wisely points out that Mom and Dad's differing backgrounds offer them each a different point of view on these issues; and yet they manage to love each other and support each other. The series acknowledges that in 2018, it would be impossible for a mixed-race family to not encounter some difficult issues; especially in middle America.
The comedy debuted last Thursday to over 16 million viewers and a solid 4.9 in demos. A very healthy start for a show garnering rave reviews from critics. This show has had a long road to the air, first entering development over two years ago as a drama before getting shelved all-together. Last June, in the wake of Roseanne Barr's racist tweet and ABC's quick cancellation of her show; Gen-TV responded by ordering to pilot a comedy focused on a mixed-race family. That series was to feature a Black mother and a white father; but during development that was changed.
It replaced the now-cancelled Lena Dunham series "Highly Functioning Adults" on the Gen-TV schedule and nearly tripled the low-ratings that series was garnering. The series has been getting positive buzz throughout its development cycle, but an early review published by AOL after a test screening nearly a month ago was the first sign of a potential hit. Future reviews in trade papers and industry sites were also positive, with the best from Variety last week stating "this show is smartly written, timely and full of heart. " The compared it favorably to "a modern day version of Family Ties or Growing Pains, where the parents are smart; the kids are smart and they use humor to deal with issues of coming of age, self-worth and coming to terms with the world we live in; a concept that many find difficult today."
While Carmichael and Swisher seem like an odd pairing at first; their chemistry is evident very quickly into the pilot episode when Emily realizes that the cop she's been flirting with for years to get out of speeding tickets is the very same cop that recently harrassed Michael for simply driving while black. The discussion the ensues between them as Emily wants to confront the cop and Michael prefers to ignore the issue showcases a real spark between the two actors as they each present their side of the argument and ultimately agree to let the issue go for now. Michael aware of the fact that for him this is a problem he'll likely face again; while Emily is shaken up by the concept of her own family being victimized.
The series hasn't done much with the kids yet; but early episodes show potential for the cast of teen actors playing the Gray family children. One particular scene garnering positive press concerns Emily's 15 year old son, Evan who is worried about telling his classmates he has a black step-father and black step-siblings. Emily's first response is to worry that her son is a racist, only to discover that his real motivation is to protect his new family members from the taunts of his classmates who he fears are racist. In a moving resolution, Michael convinces both of them to give his classmates a chance and arranges a cook-out in the family back-yard to introduce Evan's classmates to his new family; where Evan discovers that he isn't the only person in town with a unique family and realizes that all his classmates welcomed his family with open arms.
Future episodes show some promise too as they are set to feature a slew of high-profile guest stars; including Tisha Campbell-Martin who appears as Michael's mother; who has yet to accept Emily as an acceptable spouse for her son. The moving episode focuses on Emily trying to win over her new mother in law and Michael's reaction to the situation. Critics are citing this episode as "Absolutely Emmy-Worthy and a sure fire nomination for both Jerrod Carmichael and Tisha Campbell-Martin." An episode slated to air in January deals with Emily's former in-law's trying to accept her new husband; and features guest stars Jean Smart and Gerald McRaney. Perhaps the smartest thing this show does is its refusal to speak the president's name; instead preferring to refer to a "a culture of hate" and "the rise of intolerance in these times." This decision was made by Executive Producers Ansor Williams and Debbie Jones to "showcase the real issues this family faces without giving any more attention to the very real face of hatred."

--Border Police Cast
Gen-TV has confirmed the cast list for their upcoming revival of the 2011-2012 series "The Border Police." Returning to the roles they previously held are Jeffery Nordling and Shohreh Aghdashloo; who recently starred in two seasons of Gen-TV's acclaimed limited-run series "American Citizen" for which she earned multiple industry awards; including a nomination for the 2017 Best of TV Awards.
They will be joined by three new cast additions; Eion Bailey a Gen-TV favorite who has starred on "Malibu Country Club" and "Code of Ethics"; Graham Rogers (Quantico; Atypical) and Daniella Alonso, a TV veteran whose credits include NBC's Night Shift, CBS's Criminal Minds, TNT's Animal Kingdom and numerous episodic guest roles.
Not returning to their roles are Johnny Lee Miller, Vanessa Ferlito, Gale Harold, Kamar De Los Reyes, Mark Valley, Kellie Williams and Rita Wilson. The absence of these cast members is due to a variety of factors including availability of the actor and the creative direction of the storyline.
Gen-TV Executives inform us that active negotiations are underway for the return of some of them, such as Rita Wilson and Vanessa Ferlito but as of now no deals have been cemented for them.
The Border Police produced by Dick Wolf Productions originally aired for two seasons on Gen-TV in 2012, debuting as a mid-season replacement in January 2012. It was cancelled due to Gen-TV internal politics which resulted in most of the networks procedurals being axed. It will return as a limited-run series in January 2019.

"Quantico" star Priyanka Chopra has signed a lucrative talent holding deal with Gen-TV Studios effective 11/13/2018 through 11/13/2019 in which Gen-TV Studios will "allow Chopra to develop and star in future Gen-TV programming or become a cast member of an existing Gen-TV series."
Following the cancellation of "Quantico" Chopra became one of the most in-demand actresses working in television and was fielding offers from multiple networks and studios. Chopra signed a deal with Gen-TV Studios after rejecting deals from CBS, NBC, CW and Fox. The deal is worth an estimated 2.2 million dollars over the course of one year.
Sources at Gen-TV indicate to Hollywood Now that they are eyeing Chopra for a possible role on the third season of "American Citizen" which given the blockbuster ratings of their recently wrapped second season is more of a formality than ever. There is also a possibility she could turn up on the reboot of "Fugitive Recovery."

---Boston Blues Spin-Off In Development
Given it's unprecedented success, Gen-TV Studios is rushing into production a spin-off of "Boston Blues"; a first-season cop drama that is generating boffo ratings. Though in the early stages of development, sources say this new program would likely focus on the courtroom aspects of the law and would feature cases originate on "Boston Blues." Insiders tell us "Viewers would see the police investigation on Boston Blues" and the ensuing legal aspect on the new series."
Not much else is known at this time as it is in very early development.
factsoflife 11-21-2018, 09:49 PM Gen-TV Development News:
---Network orders several pilots
Gen-TV Studios has ordered several pilots to contend for spots on their Fall 2019 schedule, here is a run down on some of the most promising ones:
----"Having Faith": This pilot is for a one-hour drama with a spiritual twist. It focuses on The Faith Family of Philadelphia; comprised of Sherri Faith, a 28 year old pastor who has been tasked with overseeing a struggling church in a failing neighborhood; which happens to be the same neighborhood and church she grew up in. It focuses equally on her family life and her work as a pastor. It is being described as "7th Heaven in the black church with less children."
------"7th Heaven Reboot":---- Gen-TV Studios is also in early development on a reboot or reimagining of the 1990's drama "7th Heaven" which would focus on a brand new family living in the same house the Camdens lived in during the original series. This drama would be intended to focus on a more diverse family; possibly a Black or Latino family. Sources tell us that Gen-TV Studios is spending equal development dollars on both "Having Faith" and "7th Heaven Reboot" but that they do not see them as competing against each other.
------"American Family"---- This pilot is for a limited run series from the producers of "American Citizen" and would focus on the domestic issues faced by an immigrant family in current day America. Not much else is known about this pilot, except that it is hoping to attract an all-star cast.
---"If Hillary Had Won" (working title)---- This pilot is also for a limited-run series described as "historical fiction focused on what could have happened to the USA (and world) had Hillary Clinton won the 2016 election." The project is in very early development and is hoping to snag a name actress for the role of Hillary Clinton.
-----"Practice of Law" (working title): This pilot is for a one-hour legal procedural focused on the day to day workings of a New York Law firm. Not much else is known at the current time.
-------"Atlanta Medical": This pilot which is seen as a potential replacement for the aging "Trauma Center" is centered on an Atlanta medical center and the life or death decisions made by its staff of doctors, nurses, clinicians and patients. Gen-TV insiders tell us this pilot is intended to be extremely diverse and feature Black and Latino actors in all (or most) of the principal roles. They are seeking name actors for the role, and sources tell us are especially hoping to lure Halle Berry to the network by offering to develop this pilot around her.

factsoflife 11-26-2018, 12:03 AM Is "Trauma Center" in trouble?
--Network reportedly worried about creative changes
Over a month into the production cycle for its fifth season, Gen-TV executives are growing very worried about the creative state of its most important drama series "Trauma Center" which will enter the season as Gen-TV's second-longest running drama series (the first being "Love Affair" which airs only in the summer.)
The series is undergoing several cast changes this season with Connie Britton exiting the series and her character being killed off. Herself a replacement for Kyra Sedgwick who departed two years ago; she'll be replaced by several new cast members who will fill very different roles. The trouble it seems is that executives are worried that having too many new characters on the series will make fans grow bored and uninterested without many of their favorite characters. Another problem is that many of the storylines this season will shift to politics as Kimberly Elise's character, Dr. Mindy Walters joins the show this season and quickly draws the ire of her co-workers as she is a staunch Trump supporter; a fact that will not sit well with Dr. Saundra Marcus (Debbie Morgan); a life-long democrat and Hillary supporter. The two will clash constantly as they have vastly different approaches to running the hospital. Marcus, the chief administrator will have to deal personally with Dr. Walters belief system as she openly discriminates against gay and lesbian co-workers and spouts religious ideology instead of prescribing birth control and in one case telling a patient with a high-risk pregnancy that "she should absolutely die so her unborn fetus can live."
It is this political storyline worrying executives at Gen-TV who worry that this medical drama; once a reliable and consistent creative series might be straying too far from its core concept.
Sources within Gen-TV tell us that the situation is so dire that meetings are being held within the walls of the studio for executives to brainstorm ways to save the series; including the possibility of firing its executive producers and even the idea of recasting its leading man Johnathon Schaech with somebody "more universally well liked by audiences."
Only time will tell how this plays out but it is safe to say that Gen-TV will be watching the ratings closely and monitoring the reaction on social media to see what the future holds for this show.
Trauma Center Cast Exits:
---Two Big Exits Coming Up
Gen-TV is cutting ties with two of the most veteran cast members of "Trauma Center" their medical drama currently airing its fifth season. Both Sean Faris and Johnathon Schaech will exit the series at the completion of the season. They are both original cast members who were present in the series pilot. Faris portrays Dr. Trent Ashley and his character was recently fired from the hospital; so his exit come as no surprise. Faris has been vocal about his character lacking a storyline for many seasons now.
Schaech who began the series as its lead character has seen a gradual decrease in airtime as the seasons wore on and recently has had a fairly limited presence on the series; but his exit is still rather shocking. He'll remain until the season finale in May.
This leaves only Pam Grier as the only original cast member. She began as a recurring character in the first season and was upgraded to a regular in season two. It also leaves the series without a leading man; a fact that Gen-TV Executives say they "are hoping to correct sooner, rather than later." They say "a full-scale search is one for a new leading man to become the center of this series; we are looking at name actors over 30 to take on this role."
Still even if they find one the future of this series looks uncertain as ratings continue to drop. Trauma Center has seen a 35% decrease year to year in demos; and households continue to drop each episode to. Still though, the series remains a valuable property for Gen-TV Studios where it rakes in millions in syndication and streaming revenue and it performs very well overseas. It is the #1 rated American show in several European countries and is an massive success in Australia, where is ranks among the most popular shows ever in that country.

Faris portrays Dr. Trent Ashley and his character was recently fired from the hospital; so his exit come as no surprise. Faris has been vocal about his character lacking a storyline for many seasons now.
Schaech who began the series as its lead character has seen a gradual decrease in airtime as the seasons wore on and recently has had a fairly limited presence on the series; but his exit is still rather shocking. He'll remain until the season finale in May.
This leaves only Pam Grier as the only original cast member. She began as a recurring character in the first season and was upgraded to a regular in season two. It also leaves the series without a leading man; a fact that Gen-TV Executives say they "are hoping to correct sooner, rather than later." They say "a full-scale search is one for a new leading man to become the center of this series; we are looking at name actors over 30 to take on this role."
Still even if they find one the future of this series looks uncertain as ratings continue to drop. Trauma Center has seen a 35% decrease year to year in demos; and households continue to drop each episode to. Still though, the series remains a valuable property for Gen-TV Studios where it rakes in millions in syndication and streaming revenue and it performs very well overseas. It is the #1 rated American show in several European countries and is an massive success in Australia, where is ranks among the most popular shows ever in that country.
Mackenzie Phillips Leaving "Trauma Center"
-----Is it a mass exodus?
On the heels of both Johnathon Schaech and Sean Faris exiting "Trauma Center" comes news that Mackenzie Phillips is also leaving the medical drama. Phillips has been a series regular on the series since its second season and announced today that she will not return to the program next season; should it get a renewal for a sixth season.
Gen-TV has already confirmed plans to find new leading men to replace SChaech and Faris, but also finding a leading woman could be a big obstacle, as creatively viewers may be unwilling to invest in three new leads for a series that is already fading in popularity.
Many sources in the TV industry tell Hollywood Insider that this could be a signal that "Trauma Center" is likely to be cancelled at the end of the season. Only time will tell.

YTN CANCELS TWO SERIES
It is officially the end of the line for two YTN series. The network announced freshman In with the In-Laws and returnee The Weakest Link would not continue beyond 13 episodes. Neither series was expected to continue.
In with the In-Laws wrapped production on its season prior to the Thanksgiving holiday. Many of the cast and crew were expected to remain away until at least January, but the network decided against that option early this morning. The cancellation of In with the In-Laws does not come as much of surprise as it is the lowest rated comedy on the network. Averaging 4.16 million viewers and .757 A18-49, it did an okay job in the first four episodes but lost some steam in the last few weeks. YTN has many comedies waiting to air, so it does not have the space for the freshman comedy.
For The Weakest Link, its a quiet goodbye for a series that never seemed to generate much interest on yet another go-around. With a revolving host of YTN stars, The Weakest Link generated poor reviews and backlash from fans of the original. It is averaging 4.91 million viewers and 0.839 in its Sunday 8 o'clock timeslot, but has sagged to series lows in each of the last five episodes. Freshman Adventure of a Lifetime continually builds in audience from The Weakest Link.
Both series will air out their orders in their respective timeslots.

---Medical Drama To Retire After Fifth Season
A Hollywood Insider Exclusive Report
It is now official, Gen-TV has officially cancelled "Trauma Center" after five seasons. The drama has been running on fumes this season with several new cast additions and a political leaning storyline that has viewers tuning out in droves. Coupled with the end of cast contracts resulting in three principal actors opting to exit and the shows fate was all but sealed.
It seems that despite Gen-TV Studios being interested in ordering a sixth season; efforts made to secure well known actors to replace the departing Johnathon Schaech, Sean Faris and MacKenzie Phillips were futile and resulted in no interested A-Listers wanting to join the cast.
Gen-TV Studios Vice President Doug Bartell released the following statement "For five seasons now, Trauma Center has been a reliable and steady performer for Gen-TV and has become a critical darling. But the time has come for this fantastic series to end." "Viewers shouldn't be too sad though because we still have over 15 episodes left of this season, and Trauma Center will end on a high note with an impressive legacy of 137 episodes." "Trauma Center will remain in syndication and on streaming sites as well."

factsoflife 12-03-2018, 08:32 PM Gen-TV Development News:
---Network orders several pilots
Gen-TV Studios has ordered several pilots to contend for spots on their Fall 2019 schedule, here is a run down on some of the most promising ones:
----"Having Faith": This pilot is for a one-hour drama with a spiritual twist. It focuses on The Faith Family of Philadelphia; comprised of Sherri Faith, a 28 year old pastor who has been tasked with overseeing a struggling church in a failing neighborhood; which happens to be the same neighborhood and church she grew up in. It focuses equally on her family life and her work as a pastor. It is being described as "7th Heaven in the black church with less children."
------"7th Heaven Reboot":---- Gen-TV Studios is also in early development on a reboot or reimagining of the 1990's drama "7th Heaven" which would focus on a brand new family living in the same house the Camdens lived in during the original series. This drama would be intended to focus on a more diverse family; possibly a Black or Latino family. Sources tell us that Gen-TV Studios is spending equal development dollars on both "Having Faith" and "7th Heaven Reboot" but that they do not see them as competing against each other.
------"American Family"---- This pilot is for a limited run series from the producers of "American Citizen" and would focus on the domestic issues faced by an immigrant family in current day America. Not much else is known about this pilot, except that it is hoping to attract an all-star cast.
---"If Hillary Had Won" (working title)---- This pilot is also for a limited-run series described as "historical fiction focused on what could have happened to the USA (and world) had Hillary Clinton won the 2016 election." The project is in very early development and is hoping to snag a name actress for the role of Hillary Clinton.
-----"Practice of Law" (working title): This pilot is for a one-hour legal procedural focused on the day to day workings of a New York Law firm. Not much else is known at the current time.
-------"Atlanta Medical": This pilot which is seen as a potential replacement for the aging "Trauma Center" is centered on an Atlanta medical center and the life or death decisions made by its staff of doctors, nurses, clinicians and patients. Gen-TV insiders tell us this pilot is intended to be extremely diverse and feature Black and Latino actors in all (or most) of the principal roles. They are seeking name actors for the role, and sources tell us are especially hoping to lure Halle Berry to the network by offering to develop this pilot around her.
Gen-TV Development News:
--Atlanta Medical Updates & More
Some updates about Gen-TV development news:
---Pilot "Atlanta Medical" is in full swing having cast three well-known talents in principal roles: First off, the big news Halle Berry has signed on to star in this pilot. Eva Vargas, Gen-TV President confirmed the huge news saying "We've wanted to sign Halle to a series for a very long time and after much wooing we have finally landed her in our medical drama pilot, as a leading role."
Berry has worked in series TV before, most recently on the short-lived CBS drama "Extant" in 2015 and in her Emmy Award Winning role on HBO's "Introducing Dorothy Dandridge" in 1999. She previously starred on CBS's "Knot's Landing" and ABC's "Living Dolls" in the late 1980's.
Also getting cast on "Atlanta Medical" are Priyanka Chopra; who signed a Gen-TV talent deal last month. The "Quantico" star will be the second-female lead and signed on after three rounds of negotiations over salary and work schedule. Lastly, Mario Lopez (Saved By The Bell) has signed on as one of the two male leads; the latter of which is still being cast.
Gen-TV is developing "Atlanta Medical" as a replacement of sorts for departing medical drama "Trauma Center" which will end it's historic Gen-TV run after five seasons. "Atlanta Medical" is being conceived as a more urban and gritty series and will feature mostly Black and Latino actors.
In other development news; Gabrielle Union (Being Mary Jane) has landed the lead role in Gen-TV's pilot "Having Faith"; though the role is being slightly rewritten to accommodate her casting.

factsoflife 12-06-2018, 02:24 AM Gen-TV News:
---Gen-TV Cancels Two Series; Renews Two More
Gen-TV Studios today cancelled two long-running sitcoms, while also renewing two addition comedies to next season. The bad news is for sophomore comedies "Head of Household" and "Fish Out Of Water"; which returned for their second seasons with significant audience erosion and much lower returns in demos. But, according to Eva Vargas, President of Gen-TV Studios the factor that decided their fates had little to do with ratings and reflected more "a change of taste among Gen-TV Executives." "The success of freshmen comedies Kate & Ali and Ready To Wear proved to Gen-TV that we could rely on our viewers to embrace comedies for an adult audience; and that we didn't have to program every comedy slot with children's series." She added "the pre-school and tween market is a specific category that we have already conquered to great success with Magic School, The Special Classroom and Zendaya; and what we were seeing is perhaps our viewers telling us that we had too many similar shows and needed to diversify our line-up."
That said, Gen-TV has handed out renewals to two other comedies today; the aforementioned "Magic School" will return for its fourth season and "Baker's Dozen" will return for a second season; a renewal that was hard fought as the series struggled out of the gate but has picked up steam in recent weeks. Eva Vargas said "The renewal for Magic School was never a question as the series remains a valuable property for us and continually generates millions in revenue... (sic) despite reports to the contrary." "The renewal for Baker's Dozen just feels right and we feel that with a little retooling it could become a significant property for us."
Gen-TV has already cancelled a number of series this season; including long-running comedies "Raising Grandma", "Running In Circles" and "Highly Functioning Adults." Veteran drama "Trauma Center" will end it's run in May and veteran drama "The Mulroney Mysteries" was cancelled in the fall following a big ratings dive. Freshmen series "Blood Rush" and "A Good Ten Years" were also cancelled.

--Christine Lahti Quits "Deadly Visions"
Veteran actress Christine Lahti, an Emmy Winner for her work on the 90's medical drama "Chicago Hope" has announced she will be exiting her role on Gen-TV's "Deadly Visions" at the end of the current season. Lahti has a supporting role on the series which stars Marilu Henner as a psychic working with the Los Angeles Police Department. Her role on the show was of the unit chief responsible for the LAPD unit that works with Henner's character.
The show is a massive hit and is in its third season. Christine Lahti says her decision to exit the show is due to a sense that "my character has run its course and has nowhere left to go." The series is likely to be renewed for a fourth season; and no decision has been made on how (or if) Lahti's character will be replaced.

YTN RENEWS TWO SERIES
A week after announcing the cancellations of In with the In-Laws and The Weakest Link, YTN has given the go-ahead for two series to move forward with another season. Both Day in the Life and Revolution are expected to return next fall.
The renewal for sophomore Day in the Life comes as a bit of a surprise. After an okay freshman season behind Call Girls, Day in the Life moved to Sundays at 10 and collapsed to series lows. At least twice this season, the drama has dipped into the 0.5's, but recovered to an 0.8 this past week. Day in the Life shows little gain in L+7, growing to 1.2, but has apparently been a solid international seller for the network. In L+SD, Day in the Life is averaging 4.09 million viewers and 0.649 A18-49. YTN has given the show a 13 episode order, in line with its first two seasons. The plan from the beginning has always been shorter seasons, given the serial nature of the series.
The renewal of Revolution was much more expected. In its fourth season, the drama is averaging 5.32 million viewers and 1.25 A18-49, down about 8% in total viewers and 20% in the demo from last season. Revolution has been quite the schedule filler for YTN, airing in five different timeslots in four seasons. It will air 16 episodes in season five, up three episodes from the current season, and in line with season one and three.
Once again left out of any announcement is comedy hit revival College. Many in the industry expected it to be renewed before its upcoming Tuesday finale, but that appears unlikely as of now. Insiders tell us the network has not even approached the cast and crew about doing more episodes in the future. Any plans have been kept very mum at the network, with only a handful of executives involved in the process. It's possible no news will be known until the networks upfront presentation in April.

8- The Weakest Link - SERIES FINALE - 5.12 million viewers and 0.8 (0.821) A18-49, down a tenth from last week. The game show averaged 4.84 million viewers and 0.805 A18-49 in its sole revival season. Half hour: 0.803/0.839
9- Adventure of a Lifetime - SEASON FINALE - 6.58 million viewers and 1.3 (1.325) A18-49, even with last week, but up enough in unrounded to be a new series high (previous: 1.319 for series premiere). Half hour: 1.294/1.355
10- Day in the Life - SEASON FINALE - 4.86 million viewers and 0.8 (0.829) A18-49, even with last week. The low-rated drama will return for a third season next year. Half hour: 0.912/0.746
Monday, December 10, 2018
8- Soccer Stories - 5.76 million viewers and 1.1 (1.132) A18-49, up a tenth from last week.
830- In with the In-Laws - SERIES FINALE - 4.02 million viewers and 0.7 (0.736) A18-49, up two tenths from last weeks series low. The series finishes its season average with 3.91 million viewers and 0.727 A18-49.
9- CIA Files - 12.97 million viewers and 2.1 (2.122) A18-49, up two tenths from last week. Half hour: 2.035/2.209
10- LAPD Unit 7 - 10.34 million viewers and 1.5 (1.529) A18-49, up two tenths from last weeks series low. Half hour: 1.531/1.527
Tuesday, December 11, 2018
8- College - ONE HOUR FINALE - 8.83 million viewers and 2.3 (2.331) A18-49, up three tenths from last week for its best performance since October 9th (2.324). The first season of the revival averaged 8.56 million viewers and 2.29 A18-49. Half hour: 2.234/2.428
9- Full Time Mom - 8.26 million viewers and 1.9 (1.913) A18-49, up a tenth from last week for its second best rating of the season (behind the 2.211 season premiere). Full Time Mom has taken full advantage of the higher lead ins, so it should be interesting to see where it settles without College leading off the night.
930- Parkway Motel - 7.18 million viewers and 1.5 (1.536) A18-49, up two tenths from last week for its best rating since episode two (1.621). After weeks of stability with its comedy counterparts rising, Parkway Motel finally got a rally of its own.
10- TAKEN - 10.83 million viewers and 1.4 (1.419) A18-49, down a tenth from last week. Half hour: 1.413/1.425

---Gen-TV's Biggest Hits & Misses from 2018
The 2018 calendar year is almost over and for Gen-TV is was a year of hard lessons, big losses and surprising successes. Hollywood Insider is taking a look back at Gen-TV's programming from the last year. We start with the big losses Gen-TV faced this year and will discuss successes, surprises and lessons in another article.
Big Losses:
It was a year of big loss for Gen-TV as they said goodbye to some of their most competitive programming. They began the year without stalwart drama "The Mallory's of Jefferson County" which wrapped up its run in December 2017. The loss of that show was hard felt by Gen-TV which saw ratings tumble downward nearly 15% year to year. The massively profitable series was cancelled after six seasons as a result of escalating production costs and a request from producers to end the program as they felt that "we had executed our creative vision and had no storylines left to tell."
In May 2018, Gen-TV was dealt another blow when "Sisters" ended its run after twelve seasons. That program had become a signature program for the network and remained profitable, acclaimed and well-rated in the Nielsen Ratings system. The loss of that show was especially difficult as Gen-TV would find it difficult to launch another soapy drama to fill its void. Gen-TV tried several soapy dramas but none of them lasted long; "The Posh Life" was cancelled after a single season; "Pretty Big Lies" was not renewed for a second cycle, and faced harsh critical reviews. Gay-themed soaps "The Sun of Our Parts" and "Taking Shelter" barely lasted a full season.
Among the biggest shocks for Gen-TV this season was the veteran programs that suddenly saw their ratings decline. "The Mulroney Mysteries" began its downward spiral in 2017 but ratings tumbled nearly 75% by August 2018. "Raising Grandma" once a strong performer also saw its ratings eroded in 2018; and was down nearly 30% from 2017 as it entered the fall 2018-2019 season, it will complete its final batch of episodes in December 2018.
Sophomore dramedy, "Highly Functioning Adults" also lost most of its audience and was cancelled mid-way through its second season. This was not expected as the series was among the highest-rated shows on TV in 2017.

--Atlanta Medical Updates & More
Some updates about Gen-TV development news:
---Pilot "Atlanta Medical" is in full swing having cast three well-known talents in principal roles: First off, the big news Halle Berry has signed on to star in this pilot. Eva Vargas, Gen-TV President confirmed the huge news saying "We've wanted to sign Halle to a series for a very long time and after much wooing we have finally landed her in our medical drama pilot, as a leading role."
Berry has worked in series TV before, most recently on the short-lived CBS drama "Extant" in 2015 and in her Emmy Award Winning role on HBO's "Introducing Dorothy Dandridge" in 1999. She previously starred on CBS's "Knot's Landing" and ABC's "Living Dolls" in the late 1980's.
Also getting cast on "Atlanta Medical" are Priyanka Chopra; who signed a Gen-TV talent deal last month. The "Quantico" star will be the second-female lead and signed on after three rounds of negotiations over salary and work schedule. Lastly, Mario Lopez (Saved By The Bell) has signed on as one of the two male leads; the latter of which is still being cast.
Gen-TV is developing "Atlanta Medical" as a replacement of sorts for departing medical drama "Trauma Center" which will end it's historic Gen-TV run after five seasons. "Atlanta Medical" is being conceived as a more urban and gritty series and will feature mostly Black and Latino actors.
In other development news; Gabrielle Union (Being Mary Jane) has landed the lead role in Gen-TV's pilot "Having Faith"; though the role is being slightly rewritten to accommodate her casting.
Gen-TV News:
---Development Update
Gen-TV Studios has signed a development deal with legendary producer David E. Kelley to create several new series for the network; including a legal drama entitled "Matter of Law", a journalism drama called "Matter of Facts" and a medical drama called "Matter of Health." Though not much is known about any of these dramas; it is known that the three dramas would be set in the same fictional universe and could potentially include crossover episodes featuring characters from the other series.
Kelley is responsible for some of TV's most iconic series including Ally McBeal and The Practice; which made Kelley the first (and only) TV producer to win the Emmy for Best Drama Series and Best Comedy Series in the same year. He also created Picket Fences, Chicago Hope, Boston Legal and Big Little Lies. He also wrote for the acclaimed drama L.A. Law.
Since 2015, Kelley's production efforts have shifted away from network television and has focused on premium cable and streaming sites such as HBO, Amazon Prime and Direct TV's Audience Network. This would mark Kelley's first network television series since "Harry's Law" (NBC) and "Monday Morning" (TNT) in 2012.
Kelley's history with Gen-TV dates back to the very beginning of the network as he created one of their first hit dramas "County General" and it's spin-off "Medical University."

factsoflife 01-03-2019, 04:19 AM Gen-TV 2018 Ratings:
---Networks Lowest Finish in A Decade
Gen-TV Network finishes 2018 in 4th place among ad supported broadcast and cable networks. With an average of 4.2 in demos; this is the networks worst finish in nearly a decade; and only the third time in ten years that they've finished outside #1 or #2 for a calendar year.
The network lost nearly 40% of its audience year-to-year; much of which can be attributed to the loss of their biggest series "Mallory's of Jefferson County" which ended its run in 2017. The bright spot is that 2018 did produce some big highs for the network; "American Citizen" finished the year as Gen-TV's #1 rated program, with an average of 60 million viewers per episode and an average of 10.2 in demos. It is the networks #1 overall program and highest-rated drama. On the comedy side, "Ready To Wear" edges out stiff competition such as "Selling Out", "Cafe Oddity" and "The Boss Lady" as it averages 35 million viewers per episode and netted a 5.5 in demos.
Here are some key numbers from Gen-TV's 2018:
TOP RATED PROGRAMS (OVERALL)
TITLE/RANK Averages: Total Viewers Demos
1. American Citizen 60 million 10.2
2. Ready To Wear 35 million 5.5
3. Deadly Visions 28.3 million 5.4
4. Kate & Ali 26.5 million 5.3 (5.32)
5. Boston Blues 25.4 million 5.2 (5.24)
6. Selling Out 23.5 million 5.2 (5.22)
7. Cafe Oddity 22.3 million 4.4
8. The Boss Lady 22.2 million 4.3
9. Trauma Center 20.1 million 4.2
10. Magic School 20 million 4.1
factsoflife 01-03-2019, 04:34 AM Gen-TV Altering Casting:
-Freshmen Talk Shows Making Changes
Ahead of their planned September launch, Gen-TV's two brand new talk shows "Women's Day Live" and "Morning Talk" are undergoing some significant casting changes. Eva Vargas, Gen-TV's President says "these changes are the result of numerous focus groups and test shows that told us the audience was not responding to chemistry between certain co-hosts and that we needed to change the lineup a little bit."
So here it goes:
"Morning Talk":
The upcoming panel-style show (think "The View" or "The Talk") is dumping Vicki Lewis in favor of Tiffany Haddish ("Girls Trip"; "The Carmichael Show"). Sources tell Hollywood Now that "Vicki Lewis was simply not connecting with the core audience Gen-TV wants to grab with this series. She was skewing towards an older audience and Gen-TV is looking to grab millennials with this series. "
The casting of Haddish is being seen as "an attempt to appeal to a much younger audience in their teens and twenties." It is also being touted as "a huge step towards a truly inclusive panel which features JuJu Chang who is Asian-American, Sherri Saum who is biracial, and Rose McGowan who is white. A source for Gen-TV says "We are very happy to confirm that Tiffany Haddish is joining the cast of our new talk show Morning Talk and is going to be present to give her insightful, hilarious and thoughtful viewpoint to our audience."
"Woman's Day Live":
Gen-TV has announced that ahead of the series launch they are "respectfully parting ways with Jillian Michaels" who sources say "test audiences just did not warm up to." "Jillian has a very strong personality and can sometimes comes across as too aggressive or pushy, a trait many viewers find off-putting." They also tell us "Jillian was not happy with the format of the series and didn't jell with her future co-hosts; several test shows went down in flames as Jillian was unable to find common ground with her co-hosts and would seem overly pushy."
She is being replaced in her role as the "Wellness, Fitness & Nutrition" expert by Teddi-Jo Mellencamp-Arroyave. Mellencamp-Arroyave is a fan favorite on Bravo's "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" and in her real life is a life coach and accountability coach. She has talked openly on the show about her massive weight loss achieved through diet, exercise and changing her thinking about food. Her role is the show is being adjusted and will now be referred to as "Diet, Fitness, Nutrition and Accountability" and will cover various aspects of how to eat right, how to exercise right and how to hold yourself accountable for your own success or failure. Teddi will share fitness tips, prepare healthy recipes and discuss secrets to breaking negative habits that prevent you from being happy and healthy.
Another change being made is that Marissa Jaret Winokur is being replaced by Catt Sadler, the former E! host who made headlines in 2017 for quitting her job after finding out she was being paid nearly a third less than her male co-host Jason Kennedy. Saddler, a veteran of the entertainment news world spent over a decade at E!, first hosting the show "The Daily Ten" from 2006-2010. A spokesperson for Gen-TV said "we graciously thank Marissa for her enthusiastic work over the last several months. She is a dynamic and engaging host but unfortunately she just wasn't the right fit for this particular show."
They also said "We are happy to welcome Catt Sadler to our team at "Women's Day Live" and we think her professional experience and familiarity with the world of entertainment news makes her the perfect addition to our show."
"The Daily Click":
Don't fret about Marissa Jaret Winokur being replaced on "Women's Day Live" as she has already lined-up another gig at Gen-TV. She has been added as a co-host on freshmen series "The Daily Click" where she will serve alongside comedian Tone Bell.
Gen-TV representatives said "While her brief tenure on Women's Day Live didn't last Marissa's work ethic and humor impressed us greatly and she has easily earned her spot as co-host of The Daily Click; where she has an immense amount of chemistry with Tone Bell."
"In The News with Janeane Garofalo"
Janeane Garofalo has announced that the 2018-2019 television season will be the last one for her Gen-TV news-comedy series. She announced at the TCA conference in July "After three seasons I have decided it is time to call it quits." "I have given everything I can to this program and have been rewarded for it financially and intellectually."
This news came as quite a shock to Gen-TV executives as "In The News" still ranks as Gen-TV Daytime's highest rated show (aside from "Family Court") and is the networks most successful news program ever. The series described at the time of its debut as "one-part The Daily Show, one-part evening news, one-part republican nightmare and you have In The News with Janeane Garofalo, hosted by the intellectual, sardonic and insightful Janeane Garofalo."
Since its 2016 debut the series has won multiple awards including a Peabody Award, two Emmy Awards for "Outstanding Variety-Talk Series" and two for "Outstanding Writing-Variety Series" and multiple Best of TV (Harper Everett Awards). In 2017, Garofalo renegotiated her contract to pay her over $20 million per season. However her contract expires in August 2019.
Executives for Gen-TV declined to comment on Garofalo's decision to end the series at the conclusion of the 2018-2019 season, but sources say "they are very upset that their big cash cow is ending and they are desperately hoping one of their new programs becomes a big success."
This will leave only "NightCap with Gio Benitez" standing among the three news programs Gen-TV debuted between 2015 and 2016; as "Hourly News with Keith Olbermann" ended last season and becomes a new series "the Download with Keith Olbermann", a significantly different show aimed at attracting a much younger audience.

Gen-TV's Daytime Overhaul
--Network Cancels Six Series
Gen-TV Network's daytime division is starting off 2019 on a sad note; with the announcement that they are canceling six series due to a combination of low ratings, poor critical response and waning viewer interest.
The first causality of this decision is "The Jackie Show", a sitcom-talk show hybrid starring Jackee Harry currently in its second season. The series will wrap up its run in May 2019 after completing 200 episodes. Gen-TV President Eva Vargas says "We have decided to end the run of this series after much consideration. We thank Jackee for her hard work, dedication and professionalism."
Next on the chopping block are a trio of daytime talk shows, "Ask Alyssa", "Morning Talk" and " Woman's Day Live" are all getting cancelled. All three will remain on-air through the current season and will wrap in May.
Gen-TV is also axing unscripted series "The Daily Click" and "In The Comments with Michael Ian Black."
Now, it's not all bad news, as Gen-TV has renewed three series, "Family Court, "NightCap featuring Gio Benitez" and "The Download with Keith Olbermann" for next season.

---Renewal Fates of Gen-TV Series
With May sweeps and UpFronts fast approaching, the fate of your favorite Gen-TV series may be in limbo. Here is Hollywood Insiders fast, easy and usually pretty accurate guide to where all your favorites stand when it comes to getting renewed for next season:
We break it down into the following categories: "Already Renewed", "Likely To Be Renewed", "Already Cancelled", "Likely To Be Cancelled" and "50/50 or Could Go Either Way":
"Already Renewed":
Gen-TV has already renewed a lot of your favorite programs; included in those early renewals are veteran favorites "Hart of Family", "Making It Work", "Unlikely Family" and "Trauma Center." Here is the complete list of renewed Gen-TV series.
"Hart of Family"--- Returning for season three
"Every Other Weekend"--- Returning for season three
"Trauma Center"--- Returning for season five
"Fish out of Water"--- Returning for season two
"The Special Classroom"--- Returning for season two
"The Mulroney Mysteries"---Returning for season three
"Unlikely Family"--- Returning for season three
"Making It Work"--- Returning for season six (renewed for seasons six, seven and eight)
"Threesome"--- Will air sixth and final season in 2018-2019; though it was actually filmed between 2016 and 2017.
"Unemployed"--- Returning for season two
"Degree of Guilt"--- Returning for season two
"The Boss Lady"--- Returning for season two
"Selling Out"--- Returning for season three
"Deadly Visions"-- Returning for season three
"Love Affair"--- Returning in summer 2018 for season six

"Soapless: Life After Daytime"-- Returning in summer 2018 for season two
"Climb The Pyramid"---Renewed for summer 2018
"American Citizen"--- Renewed for season two
"Likely To Be Renewed:"
While the following series have not officially been renewed yet, conventional wisdom seems to say they are very likely to return for another season.
"Highly Functioning Adults": An immediate hit upon its debut this series draws a considerable amount of viewers and generates a lot of publicity for the network. A second season seems likely.
"Head of Household": Only in its first season this series is drawing huge ratings, especially among its target demographic of kids 5-12. A renewal not only seems likely, it seems overdue.
"Zendaya": Although not yet given a renewal it seems only a matter of time before the network orders a third season of this highly rated sitcom.
"Celebrity Cooking Battles": A very well watched reality franchise is something any broadcast network looks for and that is exactly what Gen-TV has here. A renewal seems pretty likely.
"Magic School": The fact this series wasn't among the first to get renewed is a big shock. It is among Gen-TV's highest rated programs and a renewal is a matter of when and not if.
"The Bidding War": A sixth season of this reality series is likely.
"Food Showdown": A fifth season would seem to be in order; and signs are pointing toward a renewal.
"High School Diaries: Freshman Year": A second season seems likely.
"Investigations & Explorations w/Leah Remini": Though ratings are down from season one; a third season seems likely to happen.
"50/50 or Could Go Either Way":
"Running In Circles": Although ratings are consistent and strong for this comedy; a full development slate and fewer timeslots available may leave little to no room for this series. A renewal seems probable, but at this point it is a situation that could truly go either way.
"The Murder Man": This freshman drama hasn't aired enough episodes to really determine its fate yet. It could go either way.
"D.O.A.: Dead On Arrival": Ratings aren't bad and reviews are strong enough. It could go either way on this one. We think it will depend on how strong Gen-TV's development slate is.
"Mama Knows Best": A third season of this show once seemed like a lock; but that was a long time ago and now it seems this sitcom could go either way. Ratings are fine, but reviews have cooled down and it no longer carries the same buzz it once had. And rumors are swirling that Patti Labelle wants to end the series.
"The Sum of Our Parts": While ratings are solid, they aren't enough to consider the show a breakout success yet. It could go either way.
"Climb The Pyramid: Family Edition": This show has generated solid ratings and has been useful to plug scheduling holes. However, Gen-TV is worried about overexposure and doesn't want to burn viewers out. The worry is that viewers won't return for the regular edition this summer.
"Raising Grandma": The ratings for this show have started to drop and Jackee Harry already has another series airing on Gen-TV daytime with her hybrid comedy-talk show "The Jackie Show." That said, it is possible Gen-TV would order a fourth season so that it can get enough episodes for syndication.
"Malpractice": Left off the mid-season schedule just as ratings were picking up, this one may or may not have some life left in it.
"The Witches of West Side": Ratings were just starting to pick up when Gen-TV benched it for mid-season. We'll see if it gets renewed or cancelled.
"Likely Cancelled":
"Grounded": It is only a matter of time before Gen-TV pulls the plug on this sitcom which has crashed harder than an actual plane.
"Homecourt Advantage": This show has been on the verge of being cancelled since it premiered. It doesn't seem likely to return.
"The Posh Life": This soapy melodrama hasn't done much in the ratings and reviews are lukewarm. A second season is not likely.
"Outside The Lines": It was saved from cancellation last year when NASCAR decided to underwrite the entire second season, saving Gen-TV a ton of money. However ratings haven't grown and the show keeps dropping viewers. Unless a miracle occurs and NASCAR underwrites another year, I don't see it returning.
"Jack-of-All-Trades": This spin-off of "Deadly Visions" hasn't done very good numbers and hasn't generated the fanfare that was hoped for. A cancellation notice seems likely.
"Design Wars: Homeowners vs. Experts": Ratings for this one haven't popped in the manner Gen-TV was hoping for. It won't be back.
"Already Cancelled:
Veteran series "The Mallory's of Jefferson County" and "Sisters" have already been cancelled. "Mallory's" aired their final episodes back in December and "Sisters" will bow out in May.
Also cancelled this season were:
"Sisterly Love"-- Cancelled in its third season due to declining ratings.
"Mob City"- Ratings fell and the show was axed mid-way through its fourth season.
"Call & Response": Cancelled after a few episodes of its first season.
"Excessive Force": Cancelled after a few episodes of its first season.
"Your Last Wish": Pulled from schedule mid-way through first season; officially cancelled in February 2018.
"Celebrity Road Trip Adventures": One season aired; officially cancelled in February 2018.
"Awakened": Cancelled after a few episodes of its first season aired.
"Shortage": Cancelled after a few episodes of its first season aired.
"Bedroom Stories": Cancelled after a few episodes of season one aired.
"Boston Homicide": Cancelled during production of season two.
"Love with Jennifer Love Hewitt": Cancelled after one season.
"The Plain Land Murders": Cancelled after season two.
Gen-TV's Danger Zone:
---Renewal Fates of Gen-TV Series
With the 2018-2019 season officially at the mid-way point, it's time to discuss the renewal odds of Gen-TV programming for next season. That is, which series are likely to return for the 2019-2020 season.
We break it down into the following categories: "Already Renewed", "Likely To Be Renewed", "Already Cancelled", "Likely To Be Cancelled" and "50/50 or Could Go Either Way":
Let's Start with the easiest category, "Already Renewed".
"Already Renewed" (Series Renewed Already):
"Making It Work": The series will return for one final season and wrap it's run in May 2020. This is the final season of a multi-year renewal the series received in 2017.
"Kate & Ali": The critical darling of the season has earned strong enough ratings that it was renewed early into it's freshmen season. It will return for a second season.
"Grounded": The show has picked up steam in it's sophomore run and will return for a third season.
"Hart of Family": It will return for it's fourth season. It is renewed through it's fifth season as part of a multi-season renewal it was given in 2017.
"Magic School": Renewed earlier in the season; it will return for its fourth season.
"Boston Blues": Will return for season two.
"Unlikely Family": Will return for season four. Renewed through season five as part of a multi-year renewal in 2017.
"Ready To Wear": Easily, the break-out series of 2018, it will return for a second next season.
"The Boss Lady": It will return for it's third season.
"Unemployed": It will return for it's third season.
"Selling Out": It will return for it's fourth season.
"Baker's Dozen": It will return for it's second season; though it will likely be retooled during summer hiatus.
"Deadly Visions": Gen-TV's strongest regular drama will return for it's fourth season.
"Switching Places": renewed for a second season.
"Family Court": Renewed
"NightCap with Gio Bientez: Renewed
"The Download with Keith Olbermann": Renewed for second season.
The next category is, "Already Cancelled":
"Already Cancelled" (Shows that will not return):
"The Mulroney Mysteries": Due to low-ratings it was axed early into this season. No season four.
"Running In Circles": Series Finale aired in December. Ended after four seasons.
"Highly Functioning Adults": Cancelled due to low-ratings; no season three.
"Raising Grandma": Series finale aired in December. No season five.
"A Good Ten Years": Cancelled shortly into it's first season; no second season.
"Blood Rush": No second season.
"Head of Household": No third season.
"Threesome": Ending in May 2019. No season 7.
"Trauma Center": will complete it's run after five seasons.
"Fish out of Water": No third season.
"Being Janet Jackson": Cancelled at Janet's request.
"Change of Life": Cancelled before season one aired.
"The Jackie Show": cancelled after 200 episodes aired. Ending in May 2019.
"In The News with Janeane Garofalo": will end after three seasons; at Garofalo's request.
"Woman's Day Live": No Season Two.
"Morning Talk": No Season Two.
"Ask Alyssa": Cancelled.
"The Daily Click with Tone Bell and Marissa Jarrett Winokur: no second season.
"In The Comments with Michael Ian Black": No second season.
"Likely Renewal":
"Cafe Oddity": Chances are that this show will be renewed, so long as it maintains it's strong demos.
"High School Diaries Series": both versions of the show are likely renewals so long as ratings hold up.
"Zendaya": We see no reason why this series won't be renewed for a fourth season.
"Every Other Weekend": There are more reasons than not to keep this series.
"Degree of Guilt": Unless ratings tumble like "Highly Functioning Adults", this series is a keeper.
"American Citizen": Renewal is a formality at this point, but unless it reaches some unforeseen financial or creative issues we'll see a third installment of this popular limited series.
"The Special Classroom": Unless something drastic happens, a renewal is likely.
"Love Affair": Likely to return this summer.
"Without Borders": Likely to return this summer.
"The Hardest Goodbye": Likely to return this summer.
"Soapless: Life After Daytime": Likely to return.
"Likely Cancelled" (Shows Not Likely To Return):
"Celebrity Cooking Battles": Season 5 has been completed for over a year but has not yet been scheduled and the series keeps being misplaced from the schedule. A sixth season is highly unlikely.
"All Mixed Up": This show isn't gaining much momentum, but we are thinking it's a goner.
"The Border Police": Unless ratings are massively successful, I think this limited-run series is going to be a one-time deal.
"Action Hero Dad": Unless ratings are huge I doubt they'll renew this.
"50/50" (Shows that could go either way):
"The Cole Family": It's too soon to tell with this one.
"Transgressions": We're unsure about this yet, we'll see how it holds up in the court of public opinion and with ratings.
"Our Pet Dragon": This show is very inconsistent and isn't easy to define. Developed as a family show in the vein of "ALF" it has since merged into a more adult series, closer in tone to "Married with Children." It will depend on Gen-TV's development.

THE REVIVALS CONTINUE: YTN REVIVES "TRIVIA MASTER"
In another twist on revivals, YTN announced that one season game show Trivia Master, which aired in early 2013, will return for a new batch of episodes this spring.
The series pits contestants against each other in their quest to win $50,000. The eight contestants are broken up into four head to head matches. In those matches, the first contestant to press their buzzer will answer the question at hand. A correct answer after buzzing in will earn the contestant one point. An incorrect answer allows the opponent time to answer. The first person to correctly answer twelve questions will move into the final round. Once in the final round, the two winning contestants will compete against each other to win $50,000. The first person to correctly answer twelve questions will be crowned the winner. At the completion of the first seven episodes, all of the winners will compete against each other for a chance to win $500,000 during the two hour finale.
In a statement released from the network, it says, "TRIVIA MASTER will return for eight all new two hour episodes in a battle of trivia wits to determine the ultimate TRIVIA MASTER." The series will continue to use its original format, but will switch to a LIVE version, and complete the competition in a span of two weeks. According to insiders, the network will air the two hour episodes across two weeks in the spring, as a bridge to repeats for the remainder of the season. No official date has yet been announced.
The revival of Trivia Master brings the total of revivals on YTN alone to three this season: breakout smash College, another go-around of The Weakest Link (which has already been cancelled), and now Trivia Master.

YTN RENEWS "SECOND CHANCE" FOR FINAL SEASON
After talks over the weekend, YTN has renewed GEN-TV produced Second Chance for a seventh and final season. As part of the deal, YTN will also extend the upcoming sixth season by 3 episodes, to 13 episodes.
Second Chance has never been a breakout series for YTN, hitting a 1.0 demo only four times over the course of its five year run thus far (and unlikely it will do it anytime across the next season and a half). Despite low ratings, the audience has been very reliable, averaging .78, .86, .75, and .69 in its first four seasons. The current fifth season is averaging a series low .54 demo, but has increased its audience to its largest ever, at 5 million viewers. It is also the first time Second Chance has aired during the regular season, and on Friday nights. Second Chance continues its upcoming sixth season only a week after the fifth season concludes in the coming weeks.
YTN confirmed the order is once again for 13 episodes. No airdate has yet been announced, but insiders tell us next winter is most likely.
YTN EXTENDS "BLOODLINES"
The upcoming fourth season of drama Bloodlines will now contain 13 episodes, as opposed to the 8 episodes originally ordered for the season.
The move comes a few months after the series was cancelled and then revived only a few weeks later. One of the biggest sticking points for the original cancellation was the episode order and pay for the cast. YTN ultimately increased the pay for everyone on the cast and crew, but slashed the number of episodes to eight (8).
YTN insiders tell us the network sat down with the executive producer and creator of Bloodlines over the last couple of weeks, and came to an agreement to extend the season. Both sides were eager to extend the season, given the series has been a reliable performer for YTN over the last three summer seasons. Upon confirmation of the renewal, YTN also increased pay for the main cast, jumping their salary another $5,000 per episode.
Bloodlines returns for its fourth season this Friday, at 8/7c.

8- Family Super Challenge - TWO HOUR LIVE EPISODE - 5.94 million viewers and 0.9 (0.942) A18-49, slightly above its seasonal average. Half hours unavailable.
10- Life After Prison - SPECIAL TIMESLOT - 5.21 million viewers and 0.5 (0.502) A18-49, coming close to its season high (.507). Half hours unavailable.
Monday, January 14, 2019
8- Soccer Stories - 5.95 million viewers and 1.2 (1.203) A18-49, up a tenth from its last new episode in December to hit a new season high (previous 1.197 for its season premiere).
830- High Times of Denver - SIXTH SEASON PREMIERE - 4.20 million viewers and 1.2 (1.195) A18-49, down just slightly from its October 2017 season premiere (1.221), but above its March finale (1.135). Overall, a solid return for the single-camera comedy.
9- CIA Files - 13.21 million viewers and 2.2 (2.234) A18-49, up a tenth from its last new episode in December. Half hours: 2.268/2.199
10- LAPD Unit 7 - 10.42 million viewers and 1.5 (1.489) A18-49, even with its most recent episode from December. Half hour: 1.511/1.467
Tuesday, January 15, 2019
8- Sanchez's in the Suburbs - TIMESLOT PREMIERE - 7.09 million viewers and 1.5 (1.535) A18-49, down a tenth from its last new episode. Despite that drop, this is an impressive result given the show lost the lead in of College and is now forced lead off the night. The series low for the show is 1.511, so this result was close, but again, pretty much the number one comedy on YTN at this point. It will be interesting to see where Sanchez's in the Suburbs settles.
830- UpSelling - THIRD SEASON PREMIERE - 6.68 million viewers and 1.3 (1.319) A18-49, its best performance since the series premiere (1.4). UpSelling took full advantage of its lead in, and YTN could not expect much more for the one time summer comedy.
9- Full Time Mom - 7.14 million viewers and 1.5 (1.504) A18-49, down four tenths from its massive midseason finale behind the College one hour finale. Besides the last three episodes, this is the best result for Full Time Mom since October 2nd (1.502).
930- Parkway Motel - 6.72 million viewers and 1.3 (1.299) A18-49, down two tenths from its last new episode in December.
10- TAKEN - 11.01 million viewers and 1.4 (1.419) A18-49, even with its last new episode from December. Half hour: 1.420/1.418
Wednesday, January 16, 2019
8- The Neighborhood - 9.95 million viewers and 2.2 (2.234) A18-49, down two tenths from last week. Half hour: 2.120/2.347
9- Life Support - SERIES PREMIERE - 8.97 million viewers and 1.6 (1.601) A18-49. This is a pretty solid start for the new medical drama. It did drop in all measures, but nobody expected this to grow from The Neighborhood. The real test comes over the next few weeks, and when it switches to Looking for Love as a lead in. Half hour: 1.693/1.520
10- TAKEN: Phoenix - 10.94 million viewers and 1.3 (1.295) A18-49, pretty much even with its midseason finale in December (1.303). Half hour: 1.320/1.270
Thursday, January 17, 2019
8- Mother & Daughter - 6.82 million viewers and 1.3 (1.320) A18-49, slightly up from its midseason finale in December (1.298).
830- Blended - 5.45 million viewers and 1.0 (1.032) A18-49, even with its last new episode from December.
9- The Hughes Family - 6.57 million viewers and 1.3 (1.324) A18-49, up a bit from its last new episode in December (1.256).
930- Life Lessons - 5.53 million viewers and 1.0 (1.043) A18-49, even with its last new episode from December.
10- Virus - 11.23 million viewers and 4.8 (4.835) A18-49, up three tenths from its midseason finale. This is the first time since season one Virus did not hit a new series high in a season/midseason premiere, although it did come pretty close. Throughout its run thus far, this is the second biggest rating and second largest viewership for the series since this season premiere (12.39 million viewers and 5.024 A18-49). Half hour: 4.769/4.901
Friday, January 17, 2019
8- Bloodlines - FOURTH SEASON PREMIERE - 8.19 million viewers and 0.8 (0.834) A18-49, a new series high in total viewers, but about in line with its demographic result of the last eight episodes. This is one of the few times the series has aired without the help of The Neighborhood as a lead in, and because of that, skewed a lot older than usual. If you recall, Bloodlines debuted behind Call Girls and was yanked from the schedule after three episodes. It moved to the summer season where it flourished, and eventually aired for three seasons. YTN cancelled Bloodlines late last year and returned it to the regular season for the first time in three years. This was the best result for any series in the timeslot in nearly a year. Half hour: 0.821/0.847
9- Serve and Protect - 8.27 million viewers and 0.8 (0.845) A18-49, up over a tenth from its last new episode n December (0.707). In fact, not only was this a season high, but it was the dramas best performance since last February (0.931). Half hour: 0.847/0.843
10- Second Chance - 5.96 million viewers and 0.6 (0.632) A18-49, up a tenth from its last new episode in December to hit a new season high by a slim margin (0.631 on November 30th). Half hour: 0.667/0.597
Saturday, January 18, 2019
8- Moving Down - SERIES PREMIERE - 2.95 million viewers and 0.3 (0.257) A18-49. Given this is a low-cost series from GEN-TV, and is airing on Saturday, its assumed this a good result since YTN's expectations are low.
830- Moving Down - SPECIAL TIMESLOT - 3.24 million viewers and 0.3 (0.281) A18-49, up slightly from its 8 o'clock episode. Next week Asset Protection debuts in the timeslot, with Moving Down continuing to air in the 9 o'clock hour.
9- Nowhere to be Found - NEW TIMESLOT - 4.18 million viewers and 0.5 (0.512) A18-49, down two tenths from its last new episode (on Thursday nights). Overall, this is a fairly impressive outing for a Saturday night series. In fact, it is the best result in the timeslot in more than five years. Half hour: 0.483/0.541

EDITORS NOTE:
Last week, we mistakenly published "What's Up Next" for Tuesday, January 7; unfortunately we mistakenly printed details of Monday's line-up instead of Tuesday's line-up. We apologize for the confusion.
The programs listed in that column premiere Tonight, Monday, January 14.
Gen-TV Correction:
The above ratings period was dated incorrectly. January 7th was a Monday, and the network inadvertently labeled the days incorrectly.
Monday was January 7, Tuesday was January 8, Wed was January 9, Thursday was January 10, Friday was January 11th and Saturday was January 12th.

Tuesday, January 22:
With "Boston Blues" remaining a strong force in both demos and total viewers; Gen-TV's comedies were the hot topic in industry circles as ratings were all over the place.

Wednesday, January 23:
Gen-TV's Wednesday was a massive let-down with comedy "Head of Household" plunging downward in all measurements, posting an embarrasing network low. "Unlikely Family", usually a stable performer stumbled massively dropping to a 2.8 in demos! "Action Hero Dad" posts a .79 in demos (tying with the CW's "Riverdale"). Soon to be gone comedy "Threesome" posts the strongest numbers of the night and "Trauma Center" totally got ignored by viewers.
8pm: Head of Household (New): 3.1 million/.14 (N/A) 18-49
830: Unlikely Family (New): 10.3 million/2.8 (2.81) 18-49

---------------------------
Thursday, January 24:
Gen-TV's Incredibly strong Thursday programming remained as such even with "Ready To Wear" not unexpectedly dropping in demos after it's series-high a few weeks ago. Surprisingly, it didn't drop as much as executives were hoping. "Degree of Guilt" retained most of it's audience from it's season premiere two weeks ago! "Selling Out" was up in demos and "Unemployed" posted a series high, almost returning to season 1 numbers.
8pm: Ready To Wear (New): 30.4 million/18.3 (18.33) 18-49
830: The Boss Lady (New): 18.3 million/5.3 (5.32) 18-49

-----------------------
Saturday, January 26:
Gen-TV is getting a lot of mileage out of "Our Pet Dragon" as it slowly transitions from a family comedy to a more filthy, for adults only type comedy (in the style of Married with Children). "Switching Places" is solid and "High School Diaries: Sophomore Year" is down slightly.
8pm: The Special Classroom (New): 12.1 million/3.8 (3.82) 18-49

factsoflife 02-05-2019, 05:35 PM Gen-TV's Danger Zone:
---Renewal Fates of Gen-TV Series
With the 2018-2019 season officially at the mid-way point, it's time to discuss the renewal odds of Gen-TV programming for next season. That is, which series are likely to return for the 2019-2020 season.
We break it down into the following categories: "Already Renewed", "Likely To Be Renewed", "Already Cancelled", "Likely To Be Cancelled" and "50/50 or Could Go Either Way":
Let's Start with the easiest category, "Already Renewed".
"Already Renewed" (Series Renewed Already):
"Making It Work": The series will return for one final season and wrap it's run in May 2020. This is the final season of a multi-year renewal the series received in 2017.
"Kate & Ali": The critical darling of the season has earned strong enough ratings that it was renewed early into it's freshmen season. It will return for a second season.
"Grounded": The show has picked up steam in it's sophomore run and will return for a third season.
"Hart of Family": It will return for it's fourth season. It is renewed through it's fifth season as part of a multi-season renewal it was given in 2017.
"Magic School": Renewed earlier in the season; it will return for its fourth season.
"Boston Blues": Will return for season two.
"Unlikely Family": Will return for season four. Renewed through season five as part of a multi-year renewal in 2017.
"Ready To Wear": Easily, the break-out series of 2018, it will return for a second next season.
"The Boss Lady": It will return for it's third season.
"Unemployed": It will return for it's third season.
"Selling Out": It will return for it's fourth season.
"Baker's Dozen": It will return for it's second season; though it will likely be retooled during summer hiatus.
"Deadly Visions": Gen-TV's strongest regular drama will return for it's fourth season.
"Switching Places": renewed for a second season.
"Family Court": Renewed
"NightCap with Gio Bientez: Renewed
"The Download with Keith Olbermann": Renewed for second season.
The next category is, "Already Cancelled":
"Already Cancelled" (Shows that will not return):
"The Mulroney Mysteries": Due to low-ratings it was axed early into this season. No season four.
"Running In Circles": Series Finale aired in December. Ended after four seasons.
"Highly Functioning Adults": Cancelled due to low-ratings; no season three.
"Raising Grandma": Series finale aired in December. No season five.
"A Good Ten Years": Cancelled shortly into it's first season; no second season.
"Blood Rush": No second season.
"Head of Household": No third season.
"Threesome": Ending in May 2019. No season 7.
"Trauma Center": will complete it's run after five seasons.
"Fish out of Water": No third season.
"Being Janet Jackson": Cancelled at Janet's request.
"Change of Life": Cancelled before season one aired.
"The Jackie Show": cancelled after 200 episodes aired. Ending in May 2019.
"In The News with Janeane Garofalo": will end after three seasons; at Garofalo's request.
"Woman's Day Live": No Season Two.
"Morning Talk": No Season Two.
"Ask Alyssa": Cancelled.
"The Daily Click with Tone Bell and Marissa Jarrett Winokur: no second season.
"In The Comments with Michael Ian Black": No second season.
"Likely Renewal":
"Cafe Oddity": Chances are that this show will be renewed, so long as it maintains it's strong demos.
"High School Diaries Series": both versions of the show are likely renewals so long as ratings hold up.
"Zendaya": We see no reason why this series won't be renewed for a fourth season.
"Every Other Weekend": There are more reasons than not to keep this series.
"Degree of Guilt": Unless ratings tumble like "Highly Functioning Adults", this series is a keeper.
"American Citizen": Renewal is a formality at this point, but unless it reaches some unforeseen financial or creative issues we'll see a third installment of this popular limited series.
"The Special Classroom": Unless something drastic happens, a renewal is likely.
"Love Affair": Likely to return this summer.
"Without Borders": Likely to return this summer.
"The Hardest Goodbye": Likely to return this summer.
"Soapless: Life After Daytime": Likely to return.
"Likely Cancelled" (Shows Not Likely To Return):
"Celebrity Cooking Battles": Season 5 has been completed for over a year but has not yet been scheduled and the series keeps being misplaced from the schedule. A sixth season is highly unlikely.
"All Mixed Up": This show isn't gaining much momentum, but we are thinking it's a goner.
"The Border Police": Unless ratings are massively successful, I think this limited-run series is going to be a one-time deal.
"Action Hero Dad": Unless ratings are huge I doubt they'll renew this.
"50/50" (Shows that could go either way):
"The Cole Family": It's too soon to tell with this one.
"Transgressions": We're unsure about this yet, we'll see how it holds up in the court of public opinion and with ratings.
"Our Pet Dragon": This show is very inconsistent and isn't easy to define. Developed as a family show in the vein of "ALF" it has since merged into a more adult series, closer in tone to "Married with Children." It will depend on Gen-TV's development.
Gen-TV Renewal News:
---Gen-TV Decides Fates of Entire Line-Up
Gen-TV has finally answered some lingering questions, namely which of it's "in-limbo" series will be renewed and which will not return next season. This news will leave very few questions for the network to answer in May.
We'll start with the good news; Gen-TV has renewed two freshmen series for their second seasons; reality series "Chef's House" and comedy "Cafe Oddity" will return next season. Their is also good news for a trio of returning series; "Zendaya", "Magic School" and "Degree of Guilt" will return as well. The first two for their fourth seasons and the latter for it's third.
Lastly, the network is also ordering additional seasons of "Our Pet Dragon", which will return for a second season but is being completely retooled into a more adults oriented series, a shift that has already started to occur as the program was originally developed as a family-friendly comedy in the style of 90's "TGIF" type series. Also getting renewed is "The Special Classroom", "Switching Places" and "High School Diaries: Sophomore Year."
Now for the bad news, Gen-TV is also cancelling the following series: reality series "Surprise Design", comedies "The Cole Family", "All Mixed Up", "Action Hero Dad" and drama "Transgressions."
Sources tell us that one comedy "Zendaya" was almost cancelled as well but that Gen-TV opted to keep it for another year to get enough episodes to sell it into syndication next year.

Gen-TV snagged four Golden Globes
-----Gen-TV Insider News
We're a bit late to the game, but Gen-TV Studios is happy to report that at the 2019 Golden Globe Awards held last month we took home four victories, in a mini-sweep of the comedy categories.
Our success highlights the fact that Gen-TV Studios produces some of the highest quality series on TV and that the TV industry is taking notice.
Our victories came in the following categories:
---Comedy Series: Kate & Ali. Gen-TV's critically acclaimed freshmen comedy "Kate & Ali" tied with Amazon's "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" for Best Comedy Series. Starring Keegan-Michael Key (who also serves as Executive Producer/Showrunner and writes most of the episodes) it is a re-imagining of the 1980's sitcom "Kate & Allie" set in current day that swaps out divorced mothers for a Black Muslim Man and a lesbian Indian-American woman. Key's co-star in this acclaimed comedy is Tiya Sircar.
--Lead Actor, Comedy Series: Keegan-Michael Key. For his work as Black Muslim single father, Keegan-Michael Key was named the Best Lead Actor in a Comedy.
----Lead Actress, Comedy Series: Zooey Deschanel ("Ready To Wear"): Easily the highest-rated freshmen comedy on TV, "Ready To Wear" is a bonafide success story and it is due in large part to the energetic and off-the-wall performance of Zooey Deschanel.
----Supporting Actress, TV: Tiya Sircar ("Kate & Allie"). Relative newcomer Tiya Sircar beats out a slew of veteran performers for her human and empathetic portrayal of a lesbian Indian-American single mother trying to do right by her kids. In her memorable speech Sircar dedicated her award to "all the bad-ass, ass-kicking, glass ceiling shattering, obstacle overcoming, giving mothers out there who dedicate each day to sacrificing themselves for their kids. And especially to the single mothers and women of color who face additional obstacles like systematic racism, classism and a system rigged against you. This award is dedicated to each and every one of you who work tirelessly each and every day and get nothing in return."
The results were much the same at the Screen Actor's Guild Award held in January, where "Kate & Ali" won "Outstanding Ensemble Performance-Comedy Series", "Performance By A Male Actor-Comedy Series" (Keegan-Michael Key), "Performance By A Female Actor-Comedy Series" (Tiya Sircar) and "Performance By A Female Actor-Drama Series" (Marilu Henner, "Deadly Visions.")
factsoflife 02-05-2019, 11:28 PM Gen-TV's Awards Haul!
---Network is big winner at Best of TV Awards
Gen-TV was the big winner at last nights "Best of TV Awards" presented by the Harper Everett Awards. Gen-TV took home thirteen trophies out of thirty-five nominations. Among Gen-TV's big winners was popular mini-series "American Citizen" which swept the ceremony taking home awards for Best Drama, Best Drama Actress, Best Drama Actor, Best Drama Writing and Best New Program. In fact the only category it lost was Best Drama Directing.
Other big winners for Gen-TV included "Selling Out"; a Tina Fey produced comedy in which Fey stars as a woman who sells her soul to the devil. That series was named Best Comedy Series; while another Gen-TV comedy "The Boss Lady" took home awards for Best Actress; for Kristin Wiig's delightful role as a mean boss; and Best Comedy Directing. Gen-TV also scored victories for "Mallory's of Jefferson County" when Gena Rowlands won Best Drama Actress; and for "Making It Work" when Justin Long won Best Comedy Actor.
In the reality categories; Gen-TV won awards for "Without Borders" and "Celebrity Cooking Battles."
Gen-TV's "Mallory's of Jefferson County" went into the ceremony expecting to sweep the ceremony and left with only a single win for Gena Rowlands. Pundits had predicted a big haul for the political soap competing for the final time.
Breaking News:
---Best of TV Pushed to March 2019.
The 2019 Best of TV Awards (presented by the Harper Everett Foundation) will be held a month later than normal, in March 2019 instead of the usual February 14th. The decision to push the awards to March was due to scheduling conflicts with the venue where the ceremony will be held this year, the glamarous Rainbow Room at New York City's fabulous 30 Rockefeller Plaza, and the historic Studio 8H at 30 Rockefellar Plaza, home to the iconic "Saturday Night Live."
The ceremony this year is going to be hosted by a foursome of "SNL" stars: Aidy Bryant, Colin Jost, Kate McKinnon and Mikey Day. It will take place March 20th and air live on the East Coast (pre-taped on the West Coast) from 7pm-11pm on NBC, Gen-TV, HBO, PBS and TNT & TBS. It will also be available to stream live on HBO Go and available to watch next day on Hulu.
Nominations for the "Best of TV Awards-2019" will be announced on February 20th. Last year Gen-TV won 13 trophies, a leading number out of 35 nominations.
factsoflife 02-06-2019, 01:44 AM Shocking News:
---Eva Vargas OUT at Gen-TV; sort of
Gen-TV Studios President Eva Vargas is exiting her role at Gen-TV Studios; but only temporarily. The announcement was made by Gen-TV reps on Tuesday "Eva Vargas is taking some time off from her work to focus on pressing personal matters." "Eva will remain a dear friend of and valuable asset to Gen-TV."
Vargas has had a rough year so far, her fiancee died of cancer last month and we can also confirm for the first time that Eva's ex-husband Alexander has recently passed away also, after having an unexpected brain hemorrhage. Eva's leave of absence is expected to be temporary and she will likely return to work before the year ends.
In the meantime, Gen-TV Studios will be run by the board of directors until (or if) a temporary replacement is named. Doug Bartell, the current Vice President of Gen-TV Studios is apparently the only Gen-TV Executive not being considered for that role, as he has previously held the position and said he is not interested in taking on that much responsibility.

YTN RENEWS "TAKEN" AND "TAKEN: PHOENIX" FOR TWO MORE SEASONS
YTN is excited to announce renewals of long-running network staples TAKEN and TAKEN: PHOENIX for two more seasons, keeping them on the air until at least May 2021.
Network president says, "The long-term renewal for TAKEN and TAKEN: PHOENIX gives our viewers a peace of mind knowing their favorite dramas will be back for the next two years. These two are the beginning of YTN history, and continue to re-write our history books each and every day. We are thrilled to allow the cast and crew to perfect their craft once again over these next couple of years."
TAKEN has been a centerpiece of the YTN lineup, airing nearly its entire run in the Tuesday 10 o'clock timeslot - excluding the first few episodes of season one. With a two season renewal, TAKEN continues its march as the longest-running series in YTN history. The upcoming twelfth season, set for 2020, will include the series 300th episode - a first for any YTN series. In fact, only two other dramas have ever hit the 200 episode mark - TAKEN: PHOENIX and COPS OF NEW YORK.
In its current tenth season, TAKEN is averaging 10.96 million viewers and 1.50 A18-49 in L+SD numbers, and jumping to nearly 15 million viewers and 2.1 A18-49 in L+7.

The renewal for two more seasons brings TAKEN: PHOENIX to 283 episodes - the second highest number of episodes for any series in YTN history (right behind TAKEN at 309 episodes).

---Eva Vargas OUT at Gen-TV; sort of
Gen-TV Studios President Eva Vargas is exiting her role at Gen-TV Studios; but only temporarily. The announcement was made by Gen-TV reps on Tuesday "Eva Vargas is taking some time off from her work to focus on pressing personal matters." "Eva will remain a dear friend of and valuable asset to Gen-TV."
Vargas has had a rough year so far, her fiancee died of cancer last month and we can also confirm for the first time that Eva's ex-husband Alexander has recently passed away also, after having an unexpected brain hemorrhage. Eva's leave of absence is expected to be temporary and she will likely return to work before the year ends.
In the meantime, Gen-TV Studios will be run by the board of directors until (or if) a temporary replacement is named. Doug Bartell, the current Vice President of Gen-TV Studios is apparently the only Gen-TV Executive not being considered for that role, as he has previously held the position and said he is not interested in taking on that much responsibility.
Gen-TV names Vargas's successor
-----Gen-TV newcomer Dylan Garretson to fill-in for Vargas
Relative newcomer to the TV industry and brand new hire for Gen-TV, Dylan Garretson has been hired to fill-in for Eva Vargas while she takes a needed personal leave of absence to deal with two upsetting family deaths.
Although the length of his tenure is unspecific due to the unclear length of time that Vargas will be away; Garretson is said to have won the role "easily and decisively" after a meeting with Gen-TV's board of directors who say "he has the right amount of passion and youthful energy needed to help inject some new energy into Gen-TV."
Dylan Garretson is 29 years old and comes from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where he was a station manager at the #1 rated CBS affiliate WMPP-22 from 2008 until 2016 and as a managing director at Miami's WVMF-18, a NBC O&O from 2016 until 2019. He drew a lot of attention at the 2018 TCA tour when he gave a rousing and acclaimed speech about using the power of media to make the world a better place.
In other Gen-TV news, Doug Bartell is exiting his position of Vice President of Gen-TV Studios and will be replaced by Benny Portman, a 26 year old Pittsburgh native and Dylan Garretson's husband. Bartell is leaving his position as "it was mutually decided that Doug has not been effective in his role and needs to move onto another project." Portman and Garretson have been married since 2017, and own a home together in Pacific Palisades, CA.

The 2019 Best of TV Awards (presented by the Harper Everett Foundation) will be held a month later than normal, in March 2019 instead of the usual February 14th.

The ceremony this year is going to be hosted by a foursome of "SNL" stars: Aidy Bryant, Colin Jost, Kate McKinnon and Mikey Day. It will take place March 20th and air live on the East Coast (pre-taped on the West Coast) from 7pm-11pm on NBC, Gen-TV, HBO, PBS and TNT & TBS. It will also be available to stream live on HBO Go and available to watch next day on Hulu.

---Best of TV Issuing Correction To Nominations
Less than 24 hours after announcing nominations, the Best of TV Awards is issuing a correction and it's a big and embarrasing one. When nomination announcements were sent out they accidentally omitted one key category; "Best TV Actor-Dramatic." A Best of TV spokesperson issues this statement "we sincerely apologize for our horrendous error. The mistake was made due to a printing issue and sadly in the excitement of nomination morning we failed to double check our materials before they were sent out to the press." "We formally apologize and would like to now announce the nominees for TV Actor-Dramatic."

---Gen-TV Studios earns 36 nominations
With a whopping 36 nominations, Gen-TV Studios was the most nominated network when nominations were announced for the 2019 Best of TV Awards. Including the originally omitted, "Best Actor-Dramatic" category, Gen-TV leads all other networks among nomination totals with 36 nominations overall. NBC trails behind in second place with 25 nominations and Netflix is a distant third with 13 nominations.
Among series, Gen-TV's most nominated series are "Kate & Ali", "Ready To Wear" and "Boston Blues" with 4 nominations apiece. Gen-TV scored nominations in nearly ever single category. Four series from Gen-TV are nominated in "Best Comedy": "Kate & Ali", "Ready To Wear", "Selling Out" and "The Boss Lady." Three Gen-TV shows scored nods in "Best Drama": "Boston Blues", "American Citizen" and "Deadly Visions." "Boston Blues" also got nominations for Directing, Writing and Actor and Actress. "Ready To Wear' scored nods in Directing, Writing and Actress. "Kate & Ali" got nominations in Directing, Writing and Actor.
Veteran series "Making It Work" and "Trauma Center" saw their nomination tallies drop to one nomination for "Making It Work" (Actress, Rashida Jones) and two for "Trauma Center" (Actor, Jonathan Schaech and Directing). "Selling Out" also saw a decline in nominations earning two nods (Comedy Series, Comedy Directing) while past favorites "Every Other Weekend" and "Raising Grandma" were snubbed totally. The decline for "Selling Out" is something of a shock as it was snubbed in Comedy Actress for Tina Fey, Octavia Spencer, Maya Rudolph and Rachel Dratch.

factsoflife 03-07-2019, 06:39 PM Gen-TV News:
---Development Update
Gen-TV Studios has signed a development deal with legendary producer David E. Kelley to create several new series for the network; including a legal drama entitled "Matter of Law", a journalism drama called "Matter of Facts" and a medical drama called "Matter of Health." Though not much is known about any of these dramas; it is known that the three dramas would be set in the same fictional universe and could potentially include crossover episodes featuring characters from the other series.
Kelley is responsible for some of TV's most iconic series including Ally McBeal and The Practice; which made Kelley the first (and only) TV producer to win the Emmy for Best Drama Series and Best Comedy Series in the same year. He also created Picket Fences, Chicago Hope, Boston Legal and Big Little Lies. He also wrote for the acclaimed drama L.A. Law.
Since 2015, Kelley's production efforts have shifted away from network television and has focused on premium cable and streaming sites such as HBO, Amazon Prime and Direct TV's Audience Network. This would mark Kelley's first network television series since "Harry's Law" (NBC) and "Monday Morning" (TNT) in 2012.
Kelley's history with Gen-TV dates back to the very beginning of the network as he created one of their first hit dramas "County General" and it's spin-off "Medical University."
Gen-TV Development News:
Gen-TV has added three more to it's development slate; one scripted program and two unscripted programs.
For the series, they have ordered a pilot called "American Hero", from the producers of already-renewed hit anthology "American Citizen" and the upcoming "American Family" they have ordered "a pilot that looks at the ins and outs, pros and cons of America's military and the social, political and cultural impact that war has not only on America as a whole, but on the very people we send into battle to fight in honor of our country."
The pilot is described as "a masterfully written limited-run event series that will take viewers inside the world of war in a way they've never seen."
This pilot is being given "high priority status" and will "assemble an all-star roster of talent on-screen and off-screen to bring to life these stories of tragedy and triumph."
Also on the Gen-TV docket is a documentary called "Fall of American Retail" which "takes an inside look at the rise and fall of American retail malls from the glory days in the 1960's to their rapid decline in the 1990's and beyond."
Lastly, Gen-TV is developing a controversial unscripted mini-series called "American Loser" which "traces the sad reality surrounding the fact that America elected arguably it's most incompetent president ever." It is being developed as a 6-part series featuring political pundits, sociologists, psychologists and other experts tracing how the cultural, social and psychological reasons why what should have been an easy liberal victory turned into a living nightmare. The title is derived from Trump's very own campaign speeches where he regularly called his rivals and critics "Loser" including his opponent Hillary Clinton.

----Felicity Huffman FIRED from Gen-TV
Gen-TV is not taking today's news lightly, they have responded to Felicity Huffman's arrest and have fired the actress from "American Citizen", it's spin-off "American Family" and have terminated her long-standing contract with Gen-TV Studios. Huffman was arrested Tuesday alongside nearly fifty other people nationwide as part of a college bribery scandal. Actress Lori Loughlin was also indicted in this scheme.
Emmy-Winning (and Oscar-Nominated Actress) Felicity Huffman recently starred on Gen-TV's award-winning "American Citizen" (playing a human rights lawyer who goes undercover in a human trafficking ring) and was set to star in an upcoming spin-off. However, her arrest today and indictment has stunned the entertainment industry and permanently put to rest her career with Gen-TV Studios. Gen-TV Studios Interim President Dylan Garrettson released the following statement "In response to recent news headlines, Gen-TV wants to make it clear that we are absolutely ashamed and embarrassed of Felicity Huffman and her provable actions in a college bribery scheme. We have given this issue a lot of thought and after discussions with our legal team and our board of directors have come to the decision to terminate Felicity Huffman's employment at Gen-TV Studios. She is thus, fired from "American Citizen", it's spin-off "American Family" and barred from future employment with Gen-TV Studios or any of it's subsidiaries. We think that her involvement in this scheme is disgusting and frankly do not want to support somebody who believes in their children receiving unfair advancement based on wealth instead of merits." "In response to this we have decided to donate 1 million dollars to the UNCF, as a small token of our shame at having ever employed Felicity Huffman."
"Furthermore, though she was not on any of our series, we are also barring Lori Loughlin from working at Gen-TV ever in the future."

10- High Times of Denver - SPECIAL TIMESLOT - 4.15 million viewers and 1.0 (1.021) A18-49, even with last weeks season low. Consider this an impressive hold, in its first 10 o'clock airing in nearly three years (it began its run in the 10 o'clock timeslot, behind Call Girls)/

---Tidbits and Gossip from Gen-TV
A Hollywood Insider Report
Gen-TV President Eva Vargas was reportedly rushed to the hospital on Tuesday evening (5/29) and treated for a "non life-threatening illness", the specifics of which were not released until late Wednesday (5/30) evening. We can now confirm that Ms. Vargas underwent "a routine and very successful procedure to remove a burst appendix." A rep for Gen-TV confirms "Eva is recovering and is at home resting. She will be back at work next week."
Gen-TV Network has issued a straight-to-series order for two pilots: The first, a reality series called "Surprise Design" which will feature celebrity designers surprising unexpected homeowners with a complete home renovation after they were nominated by friends, family and neighbors as being deserving of a complete home upgrade! Casting for the series is underway now and the program is expected to air in mid-season.
The second, a sitcom currently using the unofficial working title "Black & White" focuses on "the everyday reality faced by an ordinary American family who happen to be consist of a mother who is white, a father who is black and children who are a little of both." Sources say that the pilot has been long in gestation at Gen-TV but that recent real world events spurred the network to officially greenlight the series.
In other news, Cain Wentworth was quietly reelected by a majority of votes to continue serving as chairperson of Gen-TV's board of directors. When he was elected in February 2017 it was for term of "four years with a re-confirmation vote to be held by June 2018 to either confirm Wentworth will serve the remainder of his term or to end his term and signal the start of a new election for a new chairperson." In order to win reconfirmation Wentworth needed votes from "15 or more members of the 82 person board (which is an increase over the 62 members held at the time of the last election)."
Our sources confirm that Cain won reelection with a ratio of 66-16 in his favor. (meaning he got yes votes from 66 members of the board with 16 voting against or not voting at all.)
With his reelection, Cain Wentworth will continue serving as chairperson of Gen-TV's Board of Directors, overseeing budgeting and business practices for Gen-TV Studios and by default, Gen-TV Network. However with his reelection comes some minor changes in the Board, they are as follows:
Dana Gerard has resigned as Executive Vice Chairperson, citing personal reasons and Wentworth has named Nadine Maxwell to succeed her. Maxwell previously served as the Executive Treasurer of the board. Succeeding Maxwell in the role of Treasurer will be Ted Davis; who previously worked at Gen-TV as a President of Publicity from 2012-2015; and has been a non-voting board member since 2015.
David Adams will exit the role of Executive Secretary as Wentworth has decided to fill that position with Maxine Smith, who moves up from the role of Executive Assistant to Chairperson. Alexia Bishop-Wry will assume the role of Executive Assistant to Chairperson, replacing Maxine Smith. Alexia's mother Katrina Bishop-Wry was one of the most vocal and important executives Gen-TV ever had; filling a variety of roles between 2011 until her tragic death from a brain hemorrhage in 2016. Her most prestigious position
within the company was serving as President of Gen-TV Studios from 2015-2016.
Leah Marshall will remain in her role as Executive Assistant to Vice Chairperson.
The new and official reconfirmed board of directors, executive board is:
Executive Chairperson: Cain Wentworth
Executive Vice Chairperson: Nadine Maxwell
Executive Treasurer: Ted Davis
Executive Secretary: Maxine Smith
Executive Assistant to Chairperson: Alexia Bishop-Wry
Executive Assistant to Vice Chairperson: Leah Marshall
Shocking Announcement:
Gen-TV's Wentworth won't seek reelection
Although he still has a whole year left on his term of President of Gen-TV's board of directors, Cain Wentworth has announced he will not be seeking reelection. He said "I have completed the mission I set out to do. I have left Gen-TV in a stronger position than when I got this role." "I need to focus on my personal life now."
With the election nearly a year away (It will be held in February 2020) it is still anybody's guess as to who will run for President.

Shocker:
Gen-TV Executives Involved In Bribery Scheme
The FBI announced today that they had arrested and indicted seven more people today for their involvements in a nationwide college bribery scheme. This scheme has already seen over fifty people arrested; including actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin. Among those arrested today include three Gen-TV staff members; all of whom are senior level executives.
Among the Gen-TV staffers arrested are Eva Vargas, currently on-hiatus from her post as President of Gen-TV Studios. Vargas was indicted after evidence showed that she bribed officials at two different schools into accepting her children. Evidence shows that Vargas paid over $16,000 to UCLA-Berkeley (University of California, Berkeley campus) to accept eldest daughter Maddie on a music scholarship despite the fact that Maddie has never played a musical instrument. Maddie was enrolled in the 2016 school year. In 2018, Vargas paid over $25,000 to officials at USC (University of Southern California) to enroll middle daughter Corrine and son, Conrad on athletic scholarships, Corrine for basketball and Conrad for soccer, despite provable evidence that neither child has ever been involved in sports of any kind.
Evidence suggests also that Vargas (and her late ex-husband Alexander) also paid $15,000 for each kid to be able to cheat on the PSAT and SAT tests so that they received better scores. Maddie received a 1650, while Corrine and Conrad each got a 1500 on theirs.
Vargas was arrested on Tuesday at the Beverly Hills Hotel where she was having lunch with Kyle Richards of Bravo TV's "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills." Vargas was visibly upset and reportedly cursed at the agents arresting her and threatened to "sue the pants off you lazy pigs."
Also arrested were to lower-level Gen-TV employees; Leah Marshall, longtime Gen-TV executive who has a seat on the board of directors and her husband, David Nevins, a board member who has served in various roles over the years at Gen-TV. Both were charged with wire fraud, bribery, racketeering and theft of honest services. They are alleged to have spent over $30,000 on behalf of their 22 year old son Justin Marshall-Nevins to be enrolled at Columbia University. It appears that the evidence will show they paid for Justin's SAT's to be taken for him and his test corrected to raise his score from a 1250 to a 1600. It also shows that Marshall and Nevins bribed officials at Columbia to enroll Justin on an arts scholarship despite his major being business management.
As a result of this Vargas, Marshall and Nevins have all been fired from Gen-TV, effective immediately. Vargas faces up to 8 years in prison while Marshall and Nevins each face up to 15 years in prison.
As of Tuesday afternoon Vargas's name and image were stripped from Gen-TV's corporate websites.

Gen-TV Executives Involved In Bribery Scheme
The FBI announced today that they had arrested and indicted seven more people today for their involvements in a nationwide college bribery scheme. This scheme has already seen over fifty people arrested; including actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin. Among those arrested today include three Gen-TV staff members; all of whom are senior level executives.
Among the Gen-TV staffers arrested are Eva Vargas, currently on-hiatus from her post as President of Gen-TV Studios. Vargas was indicted after evidence showed that she bribed officials at two different schools into accepting her children. Evidence shows that Vargas paid over $16,000 to UCLA-Berkeley (University of California, Berkeley campus) to accept eldest daughter Maddie on a music scholarship despite the fact that Maddie has never played a musical instrument. Maddie was enrolled in the 2016 school year. In 2018, Vargas paid over $25,000 to officials at USC (University of Southern California) to enroll middle daughter Corrine and son, Conrad on athletic scholarships, Corrine for basketball and Conrad for soccer, despite provable evidence that neither child has ever been involved in sports of any kind.
Evidence suggests also that Vargas (and her late ex-husband Alexander) also paid $15,000 for each kid to be able to cheat on the PSAT and SAT tests so that they received better scores. Maddie received a 1650, while Corrine and Conrad each got a 15000 on theirs.
Vargas was arrested on Tuesday at the Beverly Hills Hotel where she was having lunch with Kyle Richards of Bravo TV's "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills." Vargas was visibly upset and reportedly cursed at the agents arresting her and threatened to "sue the pants off you lazy pigs."
Also arrested were to lower-level Gen-TV employees; Leah Marshall, longtime Gen-TV executive who has a seat on the board of directors and her husband, David Nevins, a board member who has served in various roles over the years at Gen-TV. Both were charged with wire fraud, bribery, racketeering and theft of honest services. They are alleged to have spent over $30,000 on behalf of their 22 year old son Justin Marshall-Nevins to be enrolled at Columbia University. It appears that the evidence will show they paid for Justin's SAT's to be taken for him and his test corrected to raise his score from a 1250 to a 1600. It also shows that Marshall and Nevins bribed officials at Columbia to enroll Justin on an arts scholarship despite his major being business management.
As a result of this Vargas, Marshall and Nevins have all been fired from Gen-TV, effective immediately. Vargas faces up to 8 years in prison while Marshall and Nevins each face up to 15 years in prison.
As of Tuesday afternoon Vargas's name and image were stripped from Gen-TV's corporate websites.
Breaking News:
Eva Vargas removed from court, sobbing.
Eva Vargas appeared before a judge today in Los Angeles to face arraignment and it did not go well. As the judge read the laundry list of charges facing Vargas, the defendant was visibly upset and combative when asked questions. Vargas interrupted the judge several times and eventually was ordered to be removed from court and was held in contempt of court, and ordered to serve 48 hours in jail for contempt. Vargas was sobbing hysterically when removed by the bailiff and was seen shouting about "the Illuminati is out to get me!"
Vargas is being charged with bribery, racketeering, mail fraud, wire fraud, theft of honest services and a whole litany of other charges. As a result of this she faces up to 8 years in prison. In relation to this, UCLA-Berkeley announced today that they have officially expelled Maddie Vargas from school and have "terminated all of her credits and destroyed her academic records as it pertains to UCLA." Maddie was a junior at UCLA-Berkeley. Also, the SAT board has announced they are investigating the scores of all three Vargas children, and could nullify those scores if wrong-doing is found.
USC has similarly announced they have placed both Corrine and Conrad Vargas on involuntary suspension until a verdict is reached in Eva's on-going ligation. Corrine, an active social media influencer has also lost several endorsement deals and has seen her social media accounts frozen for "fraudulent activity." Corrine has also been expelled from the Academic Honor Society and has been fired from her unpaid internship at Vogue Magazine.
In other news, Gen-TV has confirmed that Leah Marshal and David Nevins have been fired from Gen-TV and their seats on the board of directors have been terminated. Vargas could lose her job as well, but sources tell us that Gen-TV won't make an official determination on that until she is tried. If she's found guilty of even one charge she is likely to be fired.

8- High Times of Denver - SPECIAL TIMESLOT - 4.17 million viewers and 0.9 (0.945) A18-49, even with last weeks season low (which aired at 10). Unlike last week, High Times of Denver returned to its younger-skewing self this week.

---Surf Drama To Air This Summer
Gen-TV has picked up an Australian surfing drama called "Breaking Blue" which will air this summer. The drama which was going by the names of "Hang 10" or "Hanging 10" while in development will focus on three American exchange students studying in Australia and competing on an Australian surfing team.
Co-produced by Australia's Seven Network (aka 7 Australia) it will air this summer on Gen-TV in the USA and on Seven in Australia. Casting is still underway.
The drama will join Gen-TV's returning anthology series "Love Affair" and "The Hardest Goodbye" and returning game show "Climb The Pyramid" as part of the networks summer block of programming. The network also has several reality series in contention to return this summer including "Without Borders" and "Soapless: Life After Daytime" but no word on their future is available yet.
Gen-TV News:
Networks Orders Two More Summer Series
Gen-TV has picked up two brand new original series to air this summer; one drama and a comedy. The drama, called "Summer Heat" (tentative title) is described as "a steamy, sultry nighttime soap opera focusing on the unbelievable, over the top antics that occur among a group of tourists and residents of a summer-only resort town." "It will showcase the tensions, trials and romances therein."
The second series, a comedy is called "Summer Share" and focuses on two vastly different families sharing a summer house together. Casting for both series is underway and will be announced at a later date.
factsoflife 03-25-2019, 12:49 AM Gen-TV Summer News
---Network Cancels spin-off
Gen-TV is officially pulling the plug on "Infamous Affairs" a high-end spin-off of "Love Affair" that never truly found its footing, either creatively or commercially. The anthology program focused on tragic romances from history was a dud right out of the gate; and recently posted under a 2.1 in demos (with under six million total viewers). This was "Infamous Affairs" first season, and it will not return for a second season.
Eva Vargas confirmed the cancellation of this series saying "despite our best efforts we were unable to get Infamous Affairs to replicate the same success as its parent series, Love Affair."
Speaking of "Love Affair"; that series which recently completed the third of a three season renewal will live to see another day as Gen-TV is confirming that they have picked the series up for a seventh season, which is expected to air next summer as usual. Speaking on this subject Eva Vargas said "We are thrilled to renew Love Affair for a seventh season as we are continually impressed with the way this series has connected with viewers." The series has aired on Gen-TV since its fourth season; where it underwent some retooling before eventually becoming an anthology series; with Kate Walsh as the only performer appearing in every season. It previously aired three seasons on YTN Network despite Gen-TV Studios being the majority producer of the series.
Gen-TV is also giving the renewal for a fifth season of "The Hardest Goodbye", an anthology program focused on people dealing with terminal illnesses. It's first season dealt with an elderly couple dealing with lung and breast cancer and featured Brian Kerwin and Jill Eikenberry as the leads. That season was a massive success, routinely garnering over 20 million viewers. Anne Heche, Linda Gray and Gordon Clapp appeared in supporting roles. The second season dealt with a family whose 21 year old son has leukemia. This season starred Omar Epps, Audra McDonald, Monique Coleman, Garcelle Beauvais and Blair Underwood. This season marked a high-point for the series, garnering nearly universal acclaim and the highest ratings the series ever achieved.
The series moved onto the subject of HIV/AIDS for its third season, where despite critical acclaim ratings fell to historic lows, netting just under four million viewers for the season. This year, the series fourth season focused on a town dealing with a health crisis when its water supply is poisoned. It features a star-studded cast including Matt Damon, Demi Moore, Casey Affleck, Michelle Williams, Elizabeth Banks, Reese Witherspoon and Amanda Seyfried.
Also getting renewed is "Climb The Pyramid" which will return for its third season on Gen-TV; it previously aired on YTN network before getting retooled for Gen-TV. It has been a steady, if not outright successful performer for Gen-TV. Gen-TV has also ordered a third season of doctors without borders documentary "Without Borders."
Still waiting word on their fate are two other reality series; "Being Janet Jackson" whose future depends solely on the willingness of Jackson herself to agree to film another year. The series is a massive success for Gen-TV; but the grueling filming schedule of a reality series; and the lack of privacy over her personal life have become issues for Jackson who is now a mother. Gen-TV's Eva Vargas explains "While we are working with Janet Jackson to address her concerns over continuing production of Being Janet Jackson, we have not yet reached a formal deal for a fourth season of this series."
Since debuting three seasons ago, "Being Janet Jackson" has emerged as a substantial hit for the network; generating the largest audience any reality show has delivered in five years.
Also undecided at this point is the future of "Soapless: Life After Daytime". A reality series profiling the lives of soap opera actors after their series have been cancelled or they have left daytime. The series has proved to be a steady performer, but is no longer the breakout success it once was.
Breaking News:
---Is Love Affair Ending?
Love Affair, the popular anthology program will return for it's eighth season this summer, but is that the end of the series? Chances are yes, the eighth season will probably be it's last.
Benny Portman, Gen-TV's interim Vice President spoke on this issue recently saying "We feel like eight seasons is a very respectable run and a very healthy run and that at a certain point you sort of run out of stories to tell; even in an anthology format." "It would seem unlikely that the series would continue past this summer." "That said, we aren't announcing anything official yet, and it largely depends on how viewers respond to the upcoming season."
In a related announcement, Gen-TV has confirmed that for the first time in the series history Kate Walsh will not appear on the show this season. "Despite our best efforts, we just could not find a role for Kate this season." "We have a lot of respect for Kate, but unfortunately it just didn't work out creatively." Portman said.
Casting details and announcements about this seasons theme for the series will be announced at a later date. Last season, the series told two different stories one set in Washington DC and one set in Latin America.

YTN SCHEDULES "EXTENDED FAMILY", SLIDES "FULL COUNT"
After only two episodes, YTN is moving Full Count to Saturday nights. The network is not officially cancelling the series, calling the move "necessary to extend our successful Thursday night comedy block".
On its face, it does not seem to be a vote of confidence as the series dropped into the 0.3's in its Thursday night timeslot (0.3's in the 1030 half-hour). That is a far cry from the 5.0's Virus did in the timeslot only three weeks ago. However, YTN does currently air three other series on Saturday nights, all from GEN-TV Studios: Moving Down, Asset Protection, and Nowhere to be Found. Full Count joins those series, airing Saturdays at 10/9c, effective immediately.
With Full Count out of the way, YTN has scheduled the eighth season of long-running summer comedy, Extended Family. The multi-camera sitcom kicked off its run on the now-defunct TCN, before moving to YTN in season three. This marks the first time the show will air in-season on YTN. While nothing is official, network insiders tell us this is likely the final season of the series.
Extended Family will air repeats in the hour this week, before debuting two episodes per week, starting April 4th. The comedy will air 16 episodes this season.
Plans for the premiere of Ava and Liam have not changed, and it will still debut in mid-April.

Gen-TV Ratings Sunday, March 10-Sunday, March 16, 2019:
Sunday, March 10:
It was premiere night on Gen-TV with the series premieres of two new comedies and the premiere of limited-run event "Fugitive Recovery". While the return of the beloved "Fugitive Recovery" was a strong performer, particularly in demos (10.3), Gen-TV has to be disappointed in the paltry returns for new comedies "Not So Wicked Stepmother" (2.3 18-49) and "Very Single Virginia" which did slightly better (2.9 18-49).
In a new timeslot, "Cafe Oddity" did decent business (4.2 18-49) and always steady "Making It Work" was again solid (5.5 18-49), proving that series can still be massive hits even as they approach their end-game.
8pm: Not So Wicked Stepmother (New; Series Premiere): 8.3 million/2.3 (2.34) 18-49

Wednesday, March 13
A combo of new dramas were the major players on Gen-TV Wednesday night; with "Capitol Hill" premiering to 28.3 million viewers and a 10.3 in demos thanks in large part to an expensive and unavoidable ad campaign that took place most of January and February.

factsoflife 03-27-2019, 08:32 PM Gen-TV's Daytime Overhaul
--Network Cancels Six Series
Gen-TV Network's daytime division is starting off 2019 on a sad note; with the announcement that they are canceling six series due to a combination of low ratings, poor critical response and waning viewer interest.
The first causality of this decision is "The Jackie Show", a sitcom-talk show hybrid starring Jackee Harry currently in its second season. The series will wrap up its run in May 2019 after completing 200 episodes. Gen-TV President Eva Vargas says "We have decided to end the run of this series after much consideration. We thank Jackee for her hard work, dedication and professionalism."
Next on the chopping block are a trio of daytime talk shows, "Ask Alyssa", "Morning Talk" and " Woman's Day Live" are all getting cancelled. All three will remain on-air through the current season and will wrap in May.
Gen-TV is also axing unscripted series "The Daily Click" and "In The Comments with Michael Ian Black."
Now, it's not all bad news, as Gen-TV has renewed three series, "Family Court, "NightCap featuring Gio Benitez" and "The Download with Keith Olbermann" for next season.
Gen-TV's Surprising Daytime Plan
--Network to move kid's comedies to daytime
Gen-TV Studios announced a rather surprising plan on Wednesday as it concerns the networks daytime line-up. "Gen-TV is pleased to announce that in Fall 2019 we are moving our popular children's comedies Magic School and The Special Classroom to daytime." "They will air original episodes Monday through Friday's during the daytime hours alongside returning Gen-TV series Family Court, The Download with Keith Olbermann and NightCap featuring Gio Beintez."
The decision to move these series was made by Gen-TV executives for a variety of economic reasons but ultimately was decided "after trying for several years to launch original properties in the daytime and failing to find anything of lasting value." "Coupled with the changing scheduling needs of our primetime programming, which has shifted away from children's comedies and into more adult oriented comedy and you have a situation where it only made sense to use these two popular comedies to fill open slots in the daytime hours."
Sources tell us that depending on programming needs it is possible that two recently cancelled comedies "Head of Household" and "Fish Out Of Water" could also be used during the daytime, and that talks are underway about the financials needed to rescue those two series.

Eva Vargas removed from court, sobbing.
Eva Vargas appeared before a judge today in Los Angeles to face arraignment and it did not go well. As the judge read the laundry list of charges facing Vargas, the defendant was visibly upset and combative when asked questions. Vargas interrupted the judge several times and eventually was ordered to be removed from court and was held in contempt of court, and ordered to serve 48 hours in jail for contempt. Vargas was sobbing hysterically when removed by the bailiff and was seen shouting about "the Illuminati is out to get me!"
Vargas is being charged with bribery, racketeering, mail fraud, wire fraud, theft of honest services and a whole litany of other charges. As a result of this she faces up to 8 years in prison. In relation to this, UCLA-Berkeley announced today that they have officially expelled Maddie Vargas from school and have "terminated all of her credits and destroyed her academic records as it pertains to UCLA." Maddie was a junior at UCLA-Berkeley. Also, the SAT board has announced they are investigating the scores of all three Vargas children, and could nullify those scores if wrong-doing is found.
USC has similarly announced they have placed both Corrine and Conrad Vargas on involuntary suspension until a verdict is reached in Eva's on-going ligation. Corrine, an active social media influencer has also lost several endorsement deals and has seen her social media accounts frozen for "fraudulent activity." Corrine has also been expelled from the Academic Honor Society and has been fired from her unpaid internship at Vogue Magazine.
In other news, Gen-TV has confirmed that Leah Marshal and David Nevins have been fired from Gen-TV and their seats on the board of directors have been terminated. Vargas could lose her job as well, but sources tell us that Gen-TV won't make an official determination on that until she is tried. If she's found guilty of even one charge she is likely to be fired.
Gen-TV News:
--Plea Deal Reached, Vargas to jail
Eva Vargas FIRED from Gen-TV
It's a bad news, bad news situation for disgraced Gen-TV President Eva Vargas who has reached a plea deal with federal prosecutors in a college bribery scheme. As part of the plea deal, Vargas will plead guilty to six felonies, including the most serious charges of: Wire Fraud, Conspiracy to Commit Racketeering and Bank Fraud. As per the deal she will be sentenced to two-years in federal prison.
Vargas has also agreed to turn states evidence against several other high profile individuals who are believed to be part of this scheme. This factor weighed heavily in the courts decision to sentence her to only two years; when she was facing over eight years in prison.
Now for the other news, as a result of this Gen-TV has officially fired Eva Vargas from her position of President of Gen-TV Studios. In a terse statement; Cain Wentworth, the President of Gen-TV's Board of Directors said "Given Eva's conviction on multiple felony charges, we have concluded that we have no choice but to fire Eva Vargas from her position at Gen-TV Studios. Eva chose to commit multiple felonies and is being punished by the legal system and now is facing the professional consequences." "On a personal note, we are deeply embarrassed and ashamed to have been associated with this scandal in any way." "Eva Vargas is officially terminated as President of Gen-TV Studios and her claim to a seat on our board of directors a perk of her contract is officially revoked." "Eva Vargas is no longer a member of the Gen-TV family." "She made her bed it is time for her to lay in it."
As part of her original Gen-TV contract if Eva was fired within four years of signing her contract she would have to pay hefty penalties, there is no word yet on if they will enforce that clause.
LEGAL NOTE:
Eva Vargas is a fictional character and Gen-TV does not exist. This is a fictional thread for entertainment purposes only.

BIZARRE: YTN PULLS "AVA AND LIAM" FROM SCHEDULE, ORDERS SECOND SEASON
Only two weeks before its premiere date, YTN has removed freshman comedy Ava and Liam from the schedule. In doing so, the network also announced they have renewed the comedy for a second season, set to consist of 13 episodes. With the renewal, YTN has 26 episodes of the comedy waiting to air, spread across two seasons.
In an interview with YTN, they told us, "You know, Ava and Liam is a really special series and it felt like a mistake to drop it on the schedule so late in the season. We did not want to stretch this series into the summer, we really want to give it a proper push in terms of advertising and awareness. We believe that can be done in the fall, and it also allows us to air Ava and Liam throughout the season."
This marks the first time in network history they have renewed a series before it was set to debut. Additionally, it will be the first time in network history a show ordered for one season is pushed to another season.
In place of Ava and Liam, YTN will air the second season of Family Business. The sophomore comedy has been sitting on the bench for the entire season, despite being a favorite of a number of YTN executives. Family Business will officially debut on Thursday, April 11th at 830, with a second episode at 930. It will air on Tuesday nights, two episodes per week, beginning in late April.

-Finding Home Delivers
Gen-TV Studios produced series "Finding Home" has been airing its second season since Thursday, May 10th and it has delivered big time for Showtime; pulling in over a million viewers for its season premiere and delivering Showtime its largest audience in a year.
Subsequent episodes have hovered just over a million viewers, with the May 31st episode garnering 1.93 million viewers, and nearly 2.1 million with Live+7 figures factored in (DVR/Tivo results that is). The series is down only .23% since season one in 2017.
Critically speaking, the series continues to garner rave reviews, with season two averaging 93% on Metacritic and 88% on Rotten Tomatoes. A review in the USA Today said "Finding Home has managed to avoid the sophomore slump by delivering emotionally resonant episodes each and every week. Susan Sarandon shines as the emotionally diluted widower in the middle of a life threatening cancer battle who is desperate to reconnect with her estranged daughter." "Carrie Preston shows us a range we never expected her to have as the daughter so overwhelmed with self-doubt, rage at the world and agony over her collaposping life that she just has no room left for her mother, who she hasn't seen in five years."
Also generating ovation worthy reviews is Chris Cooper, who appears in flashbacks as the late husband of Sarandon's character. His character, an alcoholic, emotionally and physically abusive man is infused with miles and miles of depth as we learn the horrible things he's endured and how he's tried desperately to be better than his father was. Ed Harris recurs on the series as the new man in the life of Sarandon's character, who until know is only known as "Mrs. Bassett" . His character, is introduced as her new oncologist and quickly becomes her latest romantic interest; a situation that grows more and more complicated each week; as he also begins to see her daughter as a patient as well.
Gen-TV Studios News:
Finding Home Cancelled At Showtime
---Series Will Move To Stream-Me
Despite boffo ratings, Showtime has decided against airing a third season of acclaimed drama "Finding Home", produced by Gen-TV Studios. The decision came down to "the creative needs of our network, and ultimately Finding Home did not fit those needs."
Starring Susan Sarandon and Carrie Preston, the dark drama about an estranged mother and daughter dealing with cancer was among the most acclaimed shows of 2017 and 2018, and delivered huge ratings (averaging just over two million viewers per episode).
But there is good news, the drama will return for a third season, and will move to Gen-TV owned streaming site Stream-ME, where it will be part of a massive relaunch of that brand in the coming months. Gen-TV is going to be relaunching the site with all-new original programming including a long in the works reboot of modeling drama "Faded Beauties", a brand new season of reality series "Outdoor Renovation", several new scripted programs and a few surprising returns of classic Gen-TV programs.
Gen-TV will announce more specific details of the relaunch and of "Finding Home" season three in the coming weeks.

factsoflife 03-30-2019, 09:55 PM Gen-TV UpFronts 2018:
Daytime and First Run
While Gen-TV Studios will not be announcing the fall schedule for Gen-TV Networks Primetime lineup until Thursday (5/16) they did a presentation today on their Daytime, Weekend and First-Up programming. Here are the highlights:
"Daytime & Weekend":
Gen-TV Daytime is getting a facelift and it is a particularly bold departure for the network; which is phasing out some of its older-skewing talk shows (Celebrity Dinner Party with Neil Patrick Harris; A.M. Live with Chrissy Teigen and Jai Rodriguez) and soap operas (Edge of Justice) in favor of bold and edgy series aimed at a younger audience.
As always the network will air reruns of classic series, both comedy and dramas weekdays from 12am-9am, at which point their slate of original programs will kick in. At the centerpiece of that line-up is smash hit court show "Family Court" returning for its third season up 22% in demos and having won a Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Legal/Courtroom Series. Immediately following that series, Gen-TV will air two episodes of the hit dramedy "The Jackie Show"; a hybrid talk show/sitcom featuring Jackee Harry (Raising Grandma, 227) as a fictionalized version of herself. In its first season the series averaged a respectable 2.4 million viewers and netted an average of 1.3 in demos.
At 12pm, a brand new series "Woman's Day Live" brings the popular magazine "Woman's Day" to television. Featuring hosts Jillian Michaels, Brooke Burke, Rachel Bilson, Vanessa Lachey and Marissa Jaret Winokur this talk show features six distinct segments all related to sections of the magazine. Jillian Michaels presents "Wellness,Fitness and Nutrition" ; Brooke Burke presents "Beauty and Health", Rachel Bilson presents "Fashion & Lifestyle", Vanessa Lachey presents "Motherhood, Parenting and Marriage"; Marissa Jaret Winokur presents "Entertainment, Music and Celebrity Gossip." The final segment is called "The Daily Bites" and is basically this series version of "Hot Topics" and will feature all five hosts together discussing various topics from the news and entertainment world. This show is being produced in-house by Gen-TV Studios and will not feature any political discussion, as the magazine itself rarely features political topics. However, unlike the magazine the tv series will feature celebrity guest far more often.
Following "Woman's Day Live", Gen-TV brings back popular talk show "Ask Alyssa" featuring Alyssa Milano. That series moved from primetime to daytime last season and quickly became a ratings darling. Milano earned her first ever Daytime Emmy Nomination for "Outstanding Host-Talk Show Informative."
Next up, Gen-TV is launching a brand new panel-style talk show called "Morning Talk". Eva Vargas says "though we've tried this style of program before to varying degrees of success; we think we've found the secret sauce with this one and are very proud to air it on our network." This show will feature 50% political topics and 50% general interest topics and will feature five hosts from various backgrounds. They are: Rose McGowan (Actress, Activist), Vicki Lewis (Actress, Comedian), JuJu Chang (Journalist), Sherri Saum (Actress), and will feature one guest host each episode; with that guest host often being a male host.
Following "The Morning Talk" is a new series "The Daily Click" which is a humor-based countdown show featuring "a comedic and fast-paced look a the 10 most outrageous, outlandish and humorous stories floating around the internet today." The series will be host by comic/actor Tone Bell.
Up next is "The Download with Keith Olbermann" a brand new series featuring Keith Olbermann that combines the never-ending nature of the 24-hour news cycle with the high tech world of the internet by combing the internet for the biggest, newest, latest news stories that will be covered in the unique way that only Keith Olbermann can do." "Keith will provide the basic details of each story and give his personal commentary on each on."
That leads into returning series "In the News with Janeane Garofalo" returning for another season of hard-hitting political commentary and social justice. That show is followed at 6pm, by a new spin-off "In The Comments with Michael Ian Black" in which actor/comic Michael Ian Black takes direct aim at the absurdity of political commentary today by utilizing a mockumentary style of reporting. In this series, similar in vein to "The Colbert Report" Michael Ian Black will cover the worlds of politics, entertainment and current events in a way only he can.
And at 7pm, Gen-TV's daytime schedule wraps up with returning favorite "NightCap with Gio Benitez." This series earned its first-ever Peabody Award last season.
Among the new arrivals in second-run syndication; Gen-TV has snagged syndication rights to "Castle", "Night Court", "Living Single" and several other series as well. They will also start airing reruns of several Gen-TV Network classics like "Surviving Mom" and "Psychic Dad" which haven't aired since they originally went off the air several seasons ago.

"First Run"
Gen-TV Studios is officially announcing the cancellation of first-run series "Ty Tells All", "You've Got To Be Gidding Be", "Food Genius with Adam Gertler", "Law of Death", "Faded Beauties" and "Sinbad". The network has also cancelled daytime series "Celebrity Dinner Party with Neil Patrick Harris", "Edge of Justice", "A.M. Live with Chrissy Teigen and Jai Rodriguez" and "Hourly News with Keith Olbermann".
Returning series include: "Second Chance", "Upselling", "Life After Prison", "Outdoor Renovation" and "Life After Prison:The War on Drugs" all which air at YTN Network.
They also discussed the second season of "Finding Home"; the critically acclaimed drama airing on Showtime which returns for as second season.
Gen-TV Studios is also producing new seasons of "1-2-3 Cook" for A&E TV, "Celebrity Dreamhouse Project" and "Please Fix My House" for Lifetime TV and three "Very Nice Girls" series for E!. "Very Nice Girls: New York", "Very Nice Girls: Dallas Debutantes" and "Very Nice Girls: Oklahoma City" all of which will air this season. "Oklahoma City" debuts in June, with the other two returning later this year. The reality franchise has snagged amazing ratings for E! routinely beating "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" as E!'s #1 rated series. The cast of "Very Nice Girls: New York" and "Dallas" were recently profiled in the New Yorker as "The new face of reality tv" with an article discussing how the casts has exploded in popularity and given a new face to the world of reality, one that often looks a lot better than the Kardashians. The article profile the acts of charity that debutantes perform and the etiquette classes they take during before coming out.
New seasons of all of these series debut this year; with a new season of "1-2-3 Cook" currently in production for a July launch date, following a successful fourth season which aired in December 2017. The series currently ranks as the #1 most popular cooking series on TV; and has netted Gen-TV Studios over "five million dollars in gross profits since it launched in 2016."
Gen-TV also discussed their plans for Stream-Me, their streaming site which recently saw the cancellations of "Law of Death" and the entire "Law & Order" franchise they had aired ("Law & Order: NYC" and "Law & Order: Hate Crimes"). Eva Vargas said the only series that will air new episodes on Stream-Me at this time is "Cooking For Dummies" which returns for its sixth and seventh seasons (it moved from Gen-TV to Stream-Me after its fourth season and will release two seasons this year before completing its contract; they have not made any decisions about the future of the series beyond these two seasons.
Eva Vargas explains "While Stream-Me remains profitable we have yet to find a series that has proven to be a breakout original program for Stream-Me; a fact that bothers us and we will continue to search for."
She also confirmed the cancellation of "Promise of Tomorrow" which has aired in 15-20 minute episodes for the last year, after fans demanded the return of the former Gen-TV soap opera. She says "Fans got what they wanted and we revived Promise of Tomorrow, now it is time to say goodbye forever as we have opted to conclude that series."
Vargas explains that "Ratings for the "Promise of Tomorrow" shorts haven't been strong and there is no reason that can justify the continued cost of production."
TV One also plans on additional seasons of "Single Again", but details on that are not yet complete and Vargas says "we'll know more about that in the coming months."
News about Gen-TV Studios:
---Series On The Move; Studio Prepping Stream-ME relaunch
Ahead of May Upfronts, Gen-TV Studios has some big announcements to make about some of it's biggest first-run and daytime series. The studio has determined the fates of several programs and there are more than a few surprises among them.
-----"Single Again"------ After airing five seasons on TV One (2016-2019), the Gen-TV Studios produced series will move to Stream-ME (Gen-TV owned streaming site) where it has been renewed for it's sixth, seventh and eighth seasons. The decision to move this series was explained by Gen-TV's interim Vice President Benny Portman "After finding out from TV One in February 2019 that they would not be ordering a sixth season of Single Again we tried in vein to find a new home for the show; but had no luck with traditional TV networks and decided the perfect solution would be to make the sixth season of Single Again a cornerstone of our upcoming relaunch of Stream-ME."
"Single Again is a wildly popular and very successful sitcom that features a group so often overlooked in mainstream media; middle aged black females." "It would have been a travesty for this important series to end it's run." "We are proud to call it a Gen-TV Studios Production and are proud that it will serve as a headliner on Stream-Me."
---1-2-3 Cook---- After making record profits for A&E since it's launch in 2016, this massively successful cooking instruction series is on the move and will move to it's new home on TLC in May 2019. The series debuted on A&E in 2016 and aired three seasons, completing it's third in February 2019.
It will move to TLC in May 2019 for it's fourth season; but has also been renewed for a fifth and sixth season. Returning for the fourth season are Chef Brian Malarkey and Chef Amanda Freitag. Joining the series are Chef's Aaron Sanchez and Carla Hall. Nigella LAwson and Alton Brown depart the series.
---Very Nice Girls Franchise----
Despite previously getting multi-season renewals from E! and greenlights for several spin-offs, this reality franchise is coming to an abrupt end. Due to undisclosed reasons Gen-TV Studios has decided to cancel this franchise in it's entirety. All "Very Nice Girls" series are officially cancelled, production has ceased entirely and there will be no future seasons. All planned spin-off's have been cancelled.
Sources at Gen-TV Studios have flatly declined to comment on the reason for this abrupt cancellation; but a contact at E! which was airing the franchise did confirm to Hollywood Insider "The decision was entirely made by executives at Gen-TV Studios and was as abrupt and confounding to us as it is to the viewing public." "It has been a significant success for E! and was a major part of our plans for the next few years."
The rumor mill has speculated this cancellation may have something to do with recent legal issues faced by several cast members.
-----Family Court------
Family Court is already renewed for next season; but Gen-TV is now confirming that the series is moving to Stream-ME for the 2019-2020 season. It will still air on Gen-TV Network daytime, but is also going to be available on Stream-ME as well.
---Outdoor Renovation----
After sitting on a shelf for over a year, Gen-TV will finally get around to airing their revamped "Outdoor Renovation" which will star HGTV and DIY host Josh Temple (replacing Ahmed Hassan). After YTN cancelled the series Gen-TV Studios announced it would move to Gen-TV, but it has sat on a shelf w/out an airdate until now.
It will debut on Stream-ME in June 2019, for fifty-five episodes.
