Tonight, the new drama Cult premieres on the CW. The series should be of interest to many of our readers because its premise involves people who discuss TV shows on-line. The question is how the very meta show will fare in the ratings. It has an incompatible lead-in, the dramedy Hart Of Dixie. The entire premiere has been available on-line for about a week. There has not been a lot of marketing for the show. In its favor, it stars Vampire Diaries alumus Matt Davis. This season, The CW has fared better with its supernatural/sci fi series than its teen series. So how do you think it will fare tonight? Make your predictions.
Looks like i was right.
I went in curious how a show about rabid fans would be. It was suprisingly ok. The writing was extremely lazy and it must have been produced on the tiniest budget. But i would have actually checked out the 2nd episode But those overnights have convinced me otherwise.
.3 900k viewers….flop
Oh and BoP, the retooled version ain’t good. I didn’t like it! It seems they just cast Mark Valley as a name-actor but didn’t know what to do with him. The fun dynamic Megan had with Peter just ain’t there. And the intended sexual chemistry was MIA. This won’t last the season.
I would watch BoP when there was nothing else on but i don’t think am wasting my time with this again.
