Trini September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 Fox is airing this Mondays at 8pm (Eastern). Paired with Sleepy Hollow at 9pm.Series premiere is Monday Sept. 22. And its re-airing Friday the 26th at 9pm.------So this is going up against The Big Bang Theory; which I don't watch, but I know it's a juggernaut. And besides that, these two shows may share a lot of the same audience.Unless Gotham completely flops, I expect this to at least play out its first season, and maybe narrowly get a second season. (DC/WB/Fox seem to be really invested in its success.) It's difficult these days for a genre series to last long, but I hope that --best case scenario-- we get 4 or 5 seasons out of this concept.

MarkHB September 5, 2014 Share September 5, 2014 I know I'm going to be watching it on OnDemand; the tuners in my DVR will be busy with DWTS and The Voice (which we both watch), and there's no way !MrsHB will be interested in Gotham.

Actionmage September 10, 2014 Share September 10, 2014 The question The Big Bang Theory poses is: Will it wreck the freshman and sophomore series in the eight week commitment to the NFL that CBS has? I would hope not, but there is bound to be a substantial overlap between the fans. Hopefully the newer and shinier toys will be played with and appreciated, even while there is a massive timeslot donnybrook/Pier Six Brawl!

MarkHB September 14, 2014 Share September 14, 2014 Don't forget the potential momentum killer that is the playoff and World Series break. Believe it or not, there won't be one, at least for Gotham. Here's the playoff schedule; Fox is pushing all but a couple of its games before the World Series to Fox Sports 1, and there's no Monday night World Series game. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14165-ratings-and-scheduling/#findComment-374125

Trini September 23, 2014 Author Share September 23, 2014 (edited) For the time being, Fox is going to be re-airing Gotham episodes Fridays at 9 Eastern. I wonder if airing twice a week will help the show any? Edited September 23, 2014 by Trini 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14165-ratings-and-scheduling/#findComment-400065

It likely just needs to stay over 2.0 and it will be renewed, but hopefully, it remains around 3.0.http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2014/09/23/tv-ratings-monday-the-voice-sleepy-hollow-return-down-gotham-scorpion-debut-well-forever-gets-a-slow-start/306198/ Edited September 23, 2014 by SimoneS 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14165-ratings-and-scheduling/#findComment-401704

Dame sans merci January 12, 2017 Share January 12, 2017 Following episode 14, Fox have announced that the show won;t return until the 24th of April. So nearly a three month gap. Let's hope they don't torture us with a big cliffhanger. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14165-ratings-and-scheduling/#findComment-2898177
Danielg342 January 16, 2017 Share January 16, 2017 Are we only getting 20 episodes this season? Because April 24 to the end of May is only six episodes- enough for Episodes 15-20 but no room for Episodes 21 and 22. Unless we're getting two straight weeks of two hour episodes. Or the season finale takes place in mid-June. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14165-ratings-and-scheduling/#findComment-2907390

Or the season finale takes place in mid-June. It's a bit of a puzzle, isn't it? I can't see them continuing into June, but Monday night stable-mate 'Lucifer' also has a 22 episode run (and is on the same schedule with a big break), so I don't know where they'd fit in double-headers.

Miss Dee April 23, 2018 Share April 23, 2018 Bumping this thread to point out that the recent implosion of Lethal Weapon might have a silver lining for Gotham, at least. If one of Fox's sure-to-be-renewed series gets cancelled for other reasons, that might be the tipping point Gotham needs to get green lit for at least one more season.

Kostgard April 24, 2018 Share April 24, 2018 Yikes. I had heard that actor was a bit of a problem, but I didn’t know he was “get the show canceled” bad. But yeah - more room on the schedule gives Gotham a better shot at survival. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14165-ratings-and-scheduling/#findComment-4262263
Danielg342 April 24, 2018 Share April 24, 2018 I watched Lethal Weapon for a bit in the first season...I thought it was funny, if a bit derivative. I would feel bad for Damon Wayans if it got canceled- he deserves his star turn. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/14165-ratings-and-scheduling/#findComment-4262723
