or keep both.. in my opinion ABCFamily has a good thing going this season.. and depending on how the shows do next year could be even better. Now that secret life is gone they have 1 major hit show on the network..and they could work around that and keep shows like the lying game. I like bunheads too and if switched doesnt get cancelled after this season bunheads should hang out another year.. pairing those 2 is a good idea.
Retention of the lead in is irrelevant.
actually, retention does matter my friend. take the secret circle for example. that show scored roughly a .6 after the vampire diaries last season but was cancelled over other shows with the same or less demo ratings because they had weaker lead-in. weaker lead-in=lower expectations. plus they won’t hesitate to scrap tlg if they think they have a new show that can perform better in that timeslot.
