   @John A

   You’re right. First time I’ve found myself agreeing with you completely.

   You’l know either way in the next few weeks what will happen to both of these shows anyway.

   People might want to print off some Fan Excuse Bingo Cards and head over to twitter and use the Warehouse13 and Alphas hashtags not long after news breaks. If anything you’l get Bingo quite quickly once all the Keyboard warriors appear to spam the @Syfy account with ‘Y you cancel our show OMG’ ‘U hate Science fiction shows!1111′(Poor grammar used for dramatic effect)

   Personally, i think S@B did very well considering the huge competition from network and cable. There is soooooooooo much on Mondays i think alot of people DVR.

   Alphas is crashing hard….i think W13 is safe becuase it’s much closer to syndication. SyFy has alot of pilots and series in the works. So i think Alphas could be in serious danger of cancellation.

   It’s only episode 9!….still four more to go and things can only get worse!, not even Summer Glau can save the ratings now!

   @Panda22

   By the end of Season 4 there would be 58 Warehouse 13 episodes produced. 77 Episodes of Eureka were produced, 40 episodes of Stargate Universe were produced, 59 of Sanctuary.

   Basically saying syndication means nothing in that regard.

   Warehouse 13 was gripping and intense, at least it’s guaranteed another 10 episodes next year (almost another season) before I need to worry about it getting cancelled.

   Lover Warehouse 13 and Alphas last night, just when i had given up on Dani in Alphas and was calling her an evil bitch she goes and changes my mind… and then dies.

   And i wonder if Leena is really dead, if so i am surprised it took them this long to do it, although i don’t think they will kill her off but then again Petes’ Vibe has me second guessing.

   I think they both can be renewed, any idea when we will know either way, anyone??

   $#@%!!! @ Switched at Birth! That’s terrible. I hope ABC Family puts season 2 in the summer.

   @Nick Are there any numbers for Are We There Yet? on TBS at 12pm and Hollywood Heights on TeenNick at 8pm?

   Wow, Switched At Birth is tumbling. Those ratings aren’t terrible, but they aren’t very good either, especially for a show that’s still in its 1st season. I think Secret Life fans can start rejoicing. If S@B keeps these numbers up, I don’t see how the network doesn’t give Secret Life a 6th season. S@B is pulling the exact same kind of numbers that Secret Life did in the Spring, and against virtually the same competition. I bet S@B will fall even more next week. I’m guessing it will finally stabilize somewhere around 1.3 million viewers and a 0.5/0.6 rating. Good thing ABC Family has a big hit in PLL.

    Once again ther mighty predictor is looking god.
    I called this mess with the Alphas and W13 season numbers.
    SyFy just has lost most of its audience.
    All they get are people that happen to be channel surfing and see something that may or may not be good. Plus some older viewers (This is why the network has been scewing fairly old lately.

    The SyFy network is DEAD. Just becuase Haven did good by accident last week does not mean all is well with the SyFy network. They probally had a lare amount of the WWE audience stay tuned to the network due to one of their superstars being on Haven now.

    Boycott Syfy network !!!

    Nick, I heard Switched will be back in Jan.

    Rumor has is it that Switched will be back in January and be the lead-in for Bunheads. If these numbers are any indication, I don’t see this pairing doing very well in the Winter.

13. Brandy

    Posted September 25, 2012 at 8:15 PM

    Also, at least Switched is renewed for season two.

    REPLACEMENT REFS = HUGE RATINGS!

    Roger Goddell saw these ratings and said hey these guys are bringing more people to football this season let me keep them. Smart move tough guy.

    Raw is slowly falling apart, Vince is going to have no choice but to fix that product and turn it back into an edgy product or they’ll be hitting Smackdown numbers for Raw within the next year or two.

    VH1 NEEDS TO GET LOVE AND HIP HOP ATLANTA BACK AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. ALTHOUGH THEIR SHOWS NOW DO OK, NOTHING AS BUZZWORTHY AND AS HIGHLY RATED AS LAHH:ATL

    Switched at Birth is a great show. Quality entertainment whether you’re a kid or an adult. The competition is fierce on Monday nights, unfortunately. But 0.6 still isn’t bad.

    While football may be responsible for some ratings dips, I suspect that the continuing image damage that SyFy is suffering is partly responsible for the ratings dips of WH13 and Alphas.

    Alphas was never that high rated, however, so it may simply be a long-term downturn. WH13, however, has been better off in past seasons. This season has been pretty weak in my opinion in terms of overall story arc, which might also partly account for the downturn.

    It will interesting to see how Defiance does on SyFy as it has an excellent cast and at least a mildly interesting premise.

    I found it interesting that both shows killed off a recurring character on the same night. I’ve never found Leena particularly interesting and if there are budget negotiations going on over another season, perhaps the producers decided to unload her. Jinx is only there to provide a young partner for Allison Scagliotti. But they can’t afford to kill off the two young people.

    It was fun seeing Amy Acker AND Jeri Ryan guest-starring in the same episode.

    Alphas has four episodes left, two of which are part of the finale and include Summer Glau in both, so I suspect the story arc will ratchet up in the next episode. It might well get back up in the .5 range by the finale.
