They fumbled so hard doing this backwater fed shyt. Heels shouldve done to the McMahons/WWE what Succession did to Rudolph/Fox.
Shouldve started with them being the big fish and they trying to hide scandals and kids fighting to take over. McMahons/WWE have a shyt load of stories you can pull from.
I like what they did because there aren't many wrestling companies that are successful. I think it's Netflix that got a series about a company that Al Snow works for. I've attended some local shows here in NC. It's hard to stay afloat nowadays. As Jim cornet would say, the territories used to be important in wrestling. I've watched wrestling since before I was in school and I was born in 77. So many different federations growing up and now we only have wwe, tna, roh/aew on tv. There are just too many belts in wrestling today and not enough companies to showcase the talent. I understand what you're saying though so your idea is great and not really wrong. I think the next wrestling show will take your approach though on some Playmakers/NFL shyt

They should've done it about the territories in the '80s & pulled from people like The Von Erichs & The Gagnes, & The Grahams

That's even more fukkery filled with suicides & deaths galore & ring rats & fans who believe it's real wanting to kill the wrestlers.

How many dudes were still watching it? And how many non-wrasslin fans tuned in? (Speaking on Coli crew.)

Reading the last 2 pages, seems season 2 was way better than 1. I didn’t even bother to watch this season.

What is the baseline for ratings?
What are shows supposed to do ratings wise to get renewed? I feel like all the shows I like gets canceled too soon.

I’m not watching anymore new shows until season 4 is announced

I thought the last season was pretty good and was looking forward to next season.

I literally just binged watched this weekend cuz I was 4 eps behind and was floored by the cliffhanger.

Damn I really wanted the payoff to see how Jack was gonna get out of this.

Was legit pissed after it ended and saw it was the season finale

Depends on the channel/platform it's on, if it's critically acclaimed or not, and how much the show costs :manny:
Show A: Low views, critically acclaimed, medium costs
Show B: High views, critically panned, low costs
Show C: Medium views, middling reviews, high costs

HBO would cancel Shows B and C, but keep Show A
A channel like starz would keep Show B, cut Show A and Show C would be up in the air.

A show like Mad Men had lowish views but was getting all kinds of awards and also cost a lot. AMC kept it because that is how much a juggernaut it was with the critics/awards. All the awards with help with ad money, which helps with the cost of the show.

Yeah, I'm lookin' forward to that, but I'm kind of worried about how Hollywood will portray '80s Texas wrasslin'

I hope it aint corny.
