My personal opinion is that the show will stay on the air, just look at last nights ratings!

The show has HOPE!

wow, thats pretty good, although i would like to see higher ratings. I think it did slightly better at the same time last year. I might be wrong.

I'm glad the show is doing good. The cast and crew deserve this success. They've obviously had to deal with a lot of things lately, the least of which being reworking the show. I hope 8SR remains successful and runs a long time.
