American Idol vs 8 Simple Rules - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

ANYONE with a ratings box/household.. you must give 8 Simple Rules ALL the ratings!!

OR John's show can be cancelled!!! I have seen this with freeks & geeks.. as soon as Who wants to be a Millionare came on.. it ruined/dragged this highly loved shows by the critics right off the air!!

this could possibly happen to 8 Simple Rules!! or even just give it a negative spin in the papers.. that it is NOT a HIT

American Idol will clean house.. we know this.. BUT WE WE WE WE must all give 8 simple rules these ratings.. to keep it rolling !!!

please

thank you

I highly doubt that it will get knocked off the air by AI. When it aired against it last week, 8SR was still in the same area it normally is in. I also doubt ABC would cancel 8SR because of AI since half of the season it has been performing very well.

I like both shows and this was a problem for me. So I watch 8 simple rules and on another tv I tape american Idol.

I doubt ABC will move 8SR around its doing very well in its timeslot I think at least it was. I think 8SR is the best current sitcom on right now no question about it!
