I'm pretty sure Hartley is on one of the biggest hits of the fall season.

eh, I'm pretty sure Supergirl's debut was huge, but in the end it got canceled by CBS, and picked up by CW. 

it didn't get cancelled

lol, yes it did. You can look at it any way you want through those rose coloured glasses, but the show was essentially cancelled.

It wasnt. CBS Corporation owns both CBS and CW and just shuffled it to a network were it would make a better fit. CBS Corporation never cancelled it

Yeah, it wasn't cancelled. As stated, The CW is owned by Viacom/CBS whatever the hell they are. If they couldn't make the financials work for the network shift, who knows, it could have been, but they did.

yes, because we all know networks are in the business of passing their successful properties on to lower rated sister networks... LOL Y'all are being super technical here just to be 'right' but for all intents and purposes, CBS cancelled Supergirl. The end. 

it's ratings on CBS would slip week after week. Trust me. I used to cover this. 

now, onto This is Us - it's getting great ratings (down this past Tuesday from premiere week...) but let's not forget it has the coveted post-TheVoice timeslot, where Blindspot was this time last year, and now that Blindsopt has been moved it's struggling. 

It wasn't cancelled they moved it to the network it fit better on, with the Superhero (Arrow, Flash, Legends) lineup. The deals they have carried over because it was just changing of network internally. 

 

An example of cancellation is Nashville from ABC, cancelled and picked up by a totally different network CMT. They need to negotiate new deals with the actors and start with contracts/set etc... from scratch.

 

Greg's wording about Queen Sugar sounds like he's done from the show. I hope it's not true and he does continue to be on season 2.

sorry, it was essentially cancelled. It was doing badly in ratings on CBS, so they cut the budget and moved it to a little sis network. I mean networks don't just 'move' shows to sister networks for kicks. LOL

No it's done for business sense and jjjg explained why. If it was cancelled, CBS would have straight canned it . If CW didn't exist, that likely may have happened but that wasn't the case. CBS Corporation still owns and produces the show. They didn't get rid of it and it picked up by some unrelated company/network. Anyways we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one
