This is great! I love this show and am happy that it is doing comparatively well, although I was a little surprised to see how few people actually watch it. Bill/Amanda/Robert: are these ratings acceptable for style? What are the ratings of some of Style’s other original shows? Thanks!
not sure but would guess that after 5 seasons having the “most watched episode/season ever” is viewed favorably.
I cannot this crap has been on for 5 seasons..they aren’t even stars..Stupid Garbage!
They seem like the nicest, most down-to-Earth people on the E! network.
i love this couple and wish them the very best for the journey ahead of them ,especialy with a new baby in there family
Why is television buried with all these shows detailing people’s lives that no one knows? I don’t get it…
The reason this show does so well is because Guiliana and Bill are a very likable couple…so what there not “celebrities”..that doesn’t change the dynamic of the show.
I have to admit that most of these shows are total fabrication and not worth watching. However, G&B is a bit different. Sure, they are B-list celebrities at best, but the show seems to realistically portray a couple very much committed to each other, both from old-world backgrounds. It could have been rather banal this season had it not been for the drama surrounding their inability to conceive and Giuliana’s cancer, but I like these two people, want to now know how a child will affect their rather hectic schedules, and I will continue watching as long as Style has the show on their schedule.
They are AMAZEBALLS !!!!
Brian ! Your opinion is the stupid garbage !!!! Really one must be “stars ‘ to be on tv ? Geez what’s is to you ? Really ? I love the show !!!
Timsdale4ever – you’re wrong on the nobody knows g&b ! Just coz you may not doesn’t mean everyone else doesn’t
People nobody knows isn’t most likely going to have a tv show of any kind outside of those public access tc channels
Bill won the first apprentice and giuliana had been on E! So um yeah I knew who they both were – I tuned in coz of that
If this show is not for you, then don’t watch. For the rest of us, we enjoy watching this lovely couple engage in life. Their joys and sorrows and how they handle life is truly inspiring. Who cares whether they are famous “enough” if they can have an impact on their viewers. Keep the show going……
