so far i love this show and will watch every episode.

It is very lovable. I keep thinking next season they should do a Three's Company spoof. Perry is so Jack Tripper. Shawn is Larry. But hard to see who is Chrissy? Rebecca or Lisa?

It seems so far like the ratings are pretty solid and that the numbers are holding up week to week. I don't even watch DWTS but i tune into watch this show.

I don't know - it's total viewers went up, but it's demo dropped again this week to a 2.5, which will probably be down to a 2.4 or 2.3 in finals. With a DWTS lead-in, and with BBT in repeat mode again, I'm not sure if ABC will see that as acceptible for renewal.

Julie, DWTS was down as well (9pm half-hour was at a 4.5 this week, 5.0 last week). Same retention percentage in 18-49 and better in total viewers. I think it has sealed a renewal.

I am so happy to hear you say that. I love this show and was hoping ABC would renew it for another season. This show is great! i just hope they don't make the same mistake with this show that they did with "Samantha Who" and expect too much, too soon and try to make it lead off a night of programming. Samantha i think, would have had a season 3 IF they hadn't tried that failed Thursday night expierment with "In The Motherhood" (a doomed show from the start)... Had it not been moved it would have lasted.

I miss Samantha Who?, too. It would have been perfect for Comedy Wednesday this season. They went with that crap Hank.

That's true. Still, it's only doing slightly better than Surviving Suburbia was doing last year. I would love to see ABC give this show another chance, though. I don't think it's out of the question that ABC will give it 13 episodes for next season. Hopefully we'll see ABC branch out comedy to another night - if they don't, I'd be surprised. I'd love to see them give the Thursday 8pm hour to comedies. Tuesdays would be another option.
