‘Little Fires Everywhere’: Joshua Jackson To Co-Star In Hulu Limited Series With Reese Witherspoon & Kerry Washington

A limited series adaptation of Celeste Ng's book, to air on Hulu.

Let's move the conversation back to the topic. Discussion about birth control and other issues without reference to the show can continue in the Small Talk topic. Thanks!

I really think that the time slot was the real killer here. Last year, ABC made two big pickups right off the bat and they put both of those shows in this time slot and both shows suffered. AMLT was moved to a better slot where I think it got higher ratings than it probably deserved, thanks to being behind one of the highest (maybe THE highest?) rated broadcast show. WC is not a "Wednesday at 10" kind of show. It's more like, hmm, maybe a "Friday at 8" kind of show. It's unfortunate that ABC was willing to throw it away without really giving it a chance. Even with DVR's/Hulu/on-demand, time slots still matter with broadcast shows, and it seems that ABC doesn't realize that.

Yeah, I wish that ABC had given it a second chance, like it did with AMLT. Honestly, if I had to choose one of those shows to renew, I would have chosen differently.

I'm just going to start to assume that the first show a network picks up is going to be canceled. WC was the very first pilot that ABC picked up and it was never really given a chance. I think 10pm on Wednesdays is pretty much a death wish time slot.

Officially Canceled

Season 3 begins on July 10.

*** MOD NOTE *** We are not considering anything in a preview to be a spoiler, so spoiler tags are not necessary when discussing something in a preview for an episode. Thanks!

***MOD NOTE*** The official air date for the premiere is Wednesday, February 27. However, there will be a "sneak peak" airing of the pilot following the Oscars on Sunday, February 24. Because of this, discussion of the pilot will start in this thread on 2/24. If you choose to read further in this thread after the sneak peak airing but before the official premiere, you will be spoiled!

I will admit I have no clue who T-Pain is... (and, yes, I'm over 30 and I don't follow rap...)

Double episode, beginning at 8pm . Airdate: February 27, 2019 The live thread has been edited so that it opens at 8pm eastern and will remain open for 2 hours.

There has been a request for a live posting thread for the last few episodes of the season, so we're giving it a try! This thread will unlock during the east coast airing of the show tonight and will lock again until next week's episode. While the thread is locked, it will still be visible. Please remember: PTV rules still apply Do not include spoilers, but... If you choose to read this before watching the episode, you WILL be spoiled
