   Hell on Wheels is a great show. One of the most under-rated series on TV. I am glad the ratings rose a little bit for the finale. I hope AMC is kind and gives us a third season.

   @Nick
   I know that’s pretty dumb.. Kids these day would watch a boring tv show instead of an okay, but funny tv show.

   A really poor start to Hell on Wheels this season, with the throw-away storyline of the lead character temporarily turning into a train robber. But once the plot got back on track, it really got better and better. The storyline of the Swede’s insanity was really well done, and the finale was definitely their best episode of the series to date. Well-written, visually stunning, almost surrealistic at times. It really does deserve a renewal.

   That’s a huge difference with the late baseball game compared to the early games. Seems like people only like watching the Yankees. Which is dumb. Some of the other teams are more fun to watch.

    Anyone have the ratings for How The States Got Their Shapes on History 2? Possibly @commenter Nick?
    Thanks if you do.

    Remember Showtime is a subscription based network, so they don’t look at ratings the same way a commercial supported network does. When it comes to Homeland Showtime is looking at its subscribers and if this is the type of programming they will support. Lastly just like HBO they are going to factor in DVD sales as well.

    Nobody should be shocked that Hell on Wheels doesn’t do well with 18-49 yo as you only have to look at how few if any Western movies have been made in the last 20-30 years. AMC has become something of a middle age skewing network with the West being a theme on the Sunday nights Hell on Wheels is being showed. Not to mention they have a catalog of western films they like to show from time to time that include tributes to the duke to more recent.

    Great job for Steel Magnolias! I thought they did great for the remake. Decided to watch it instead of the NJ Housewives reunion. So over them fighting. I don’t enjoy watching that anymore.

    Was Married to Jonas new cause its not on here and it actually did well last week considering it didn’t have its kardashian lead in. Great for RHONJ, it grew from last week and had some tough competition this week. Also if anybody has the Big Ricochet Texas ratings for the season 3 premiere please post them.

    Boardwalk Empire keeps dropping.

    Dexter and Homeland still very solid.
