Selfie, Manhattan Love Story, and Forever are suffering from low ratings and will likely be canceled, according to a new analysis.
The three shows represent two of ABC’s three hours of prime-time programming on Monday nights.
All are first-year shows.
TV by the Numbers, which analyzes ratings and other figures, predicts that Selfie and Manhattan Love Story is “certain to be canceled.”
ABC was airing Dancing With the Stars on Tuesdays until September 30, when the two comedies joined Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Forever.
Selfie garnered 5.3 million overall viewers (1.6 million in the key 18-49 demographic) while Manhattan Love Story came in at 4.7 million (1.5) million. Forever, in the 10 p.m. timeslot, got 5.7 million (1.4 million).
The ratings have dipped for all three shows. On October 14, Selfie had just 3.4 million (1 million) while Love Story had 2.9 million (0.9 million). The competition clearly destroyed the shows, with The voice getting 12 million (2.4 million), NCIS getting 17 million (2.5 million) and even The CW winning with The Flash with 4.3 million (1.7 million).
On the other hand, there is some hope for the shows despite the gloomy predictions.
