NBC is shooting themselves in the foot. Perhaps Fox could pick up Good Cop/Bad Cop from the CW when it implodes.

All of the linear networks see live sports as a panacea for the shift to streaming. Unfortunately, nothing pulls in people like the NFL games. Basketball, hockey, baseball, car racing, none of that draws the way football does, but all of the networks are doing some kind of prime-time live sports. FOX has college games. The CW has auto racing and WWE. ABC and NBC have the football. CBS is the only network that still has mostly scripted shows.

I agree with you, though. I think NBC is spending a lot of money on a product that will not have the ROI they want. 

I was frankly shocked. I think by the end of its season, Going Dutch had sub one million viewers. The network just seems to like Denis Leary, I suppose. I was surprised Night Court was cancelled. NBC has not had very good luck with its half-hour comedies for close to ten years. Night Court was one of the few to do consistently well, but they had to make room for NBA basketball. (more on that once I have ABC's fall schedule and can post the two articles I have on this year's upfronts)

Why are the ratings so low for The Rookie? Best cop show running.

I'm sure that's a question the production team has been asking for years. The Rookie is one of those shows that seems to fly under most people's radar (surprising given Nathan Fillion's cache). Every year it's a nail-biter for its fans if it will be renewed or not.

FBI: International & FBI: Most Wanted both shows have been cancelled, but those numbers might convince network execs to continue one or both shows on its streamer.

 

Here's Hoping ;-)

It's not a great chance, but maybe?? CBS Paramount has done it before, so there is precedent.
