   Anger Management is no big hit and it will be interesting if it gets the 90 episode renewal. Sure FX is trying to work out some kind of deal.

   Great night for MTV, USA, and Project Runway. Wow at American Bible Challenge making the list.

   Looks like some WWE fans are finally seeing the light on the better product that is TNA.

   Awkward is doing well.

   Anger Management will do better in time. Sullivan & Son is the real deal.

   Does anybody know how Totally Biased on FX has done the last 2 weeks? It doesn’t surprise me that show can’t crack the top 100 cable shows of Thursday. It’s pretty terrible. Just curious of its numbers. Thanks!

   Sooo happy about Suits! The episode (as well as the entire season) was amazing, it is so deserved! It puzzles me however how is it that USA doesnt pair it with White Collar and Burn Notice with Covert Affairs. It would make sooo much more sense considering the type of shows they are. The current pairings don’t make a lot of sense, but well.

   Dear people who watch Anger Management and not Louie and Wilfred,

   You suck.

   Sincerely,

   People with taste.

   Personally I wanted Anger Management to do a little better, for a Season finale I was expecting a decent rise.

   And I wish I knew what was going on with this show. That would be awesome, regardless, can only hope for the best.

   Loved Suits last night – is there anyone cooler than Harvey!!! Delighted it dominated the ratings so much. Looking forward to the next new episodes!!

   The Anger Management contract is already signed with a ratings threshold for renewal built-in. It’s either getting its 90 episode order for syndication or nothing, and both FX and Sheen seem to believe the 90 episode order is happening.

   Sheen is getting money off the back-end in lieu of a salary. No chance of it getting a smaller order because it’s not worth it to him without the income from syndication.

    If you look at Anger Management’s ratings compared to the rest of the FX comedies that have ever aired on that network you’d see why it deserves its 90 episodes.

    I’m so happy for TNA right now. Aces and 8′s is getting it done for them right now.

    Wow, FX is losing more viewers each week. The numbers for Wilfred and Louie are awful, not to mention how low Anger Management has fallen.

    I might be wrong, but I don’t think that was the season finale of suits, just the summer finale. There should be 5 or 6 more episodes in the second season.

    AWKWARD!!!!! Yet again a excellent episode 3 weeks in a row!!!! I hope it keeps going up and end the season on a new high
    These are the kind of numbers Teen Wolf should be getting

    Still can’t believe Suits is beating Burn Notice. And I really baffled that Sullivan and Son is still getting a 1.0???

    Impact Wrestling finally made it to at least a .6. Looks like people are starting to figure out its on at 8 now

    TNA could get scary in the next few months, if this many people have caught onto TNA’s improvement in quality this quickly then just imagine if they can grab even more through word of mouth. WWE could be in trouble down the line.

    Only Thursday Night Football is in its way at this point.

    I think Anger Management will get renewed. The deal FX did, as far as I know, is that the episodes will be produced a lot faster and cheaper than average multi-camera shows. Are those ratings of a hit cable show? No. But they are pretty good.

    They should create another multi-camera comedy to pair with it. Or maybe just push it to 9pm. Nobody will wait until 9:30 to watch an original episode when they can watch at 9pm Burn Notice and a bunch of other shows…

    Compared to other series on FX..Anger Management is doing pretty decent..but for a show to lose more than half its audience between the premiere and the finale doesn’t show a huge amount of potential growth. Does the series deserve a second season?..of course..but for 90 episodes?..not so sure. A show like Sullivan and Son is the real hit I can see growing season to season.

    Nice numbers for American Bible Challenge in its debut. When was the last time a GSN original was in the Top 100?

    Isn’t that pretty bad for the Braxton Family Value…??

    I say seperate Suits and Burn Notice, I’m glad they stayed together for this season but now it’s time for Suits to launch a new show. I’d say to move Burn Notice, and give Suits Thursdays @ 9.

    Anger Management Is a failure for what that show was suppose to do. Come on it getting beat by Sullivan & Son and dont say it because of TBBT because S&S ROSE out of TBBT
