Ready for Love - Discussion - Spoilers

Lost17 Thanks! Not sure how many million NBC is wanting. The same article that said it was cancelled said "only" 3.1 million people were watching.

3.1 million people watching a show is a network disaster. If there are not enough viewers, the advertisers don't want to spend their money on the show. No advertisers, no money = no show.

Yup! 3.1 million in ratings might be awesome for cable but not for networks.

Ready For Love was given excellent placement ... following NBC's The Voice on Tuesday, which generally has more than 13 million viewers. It's a built-in audience for Ready for Love but they failed to convert those Voice viewers into Ready for Love viewers. The Bachelor generally has 9-10 million viewers and has been around for a long, long time. You'd think after the success of Sean's season that there'd be more viewers interested.

I am ticked off because I love the idea of "Ready for Love" but Eva and her producers just confused the audience by stuffing too much into the format. It's way too gimmick-y...

-Is Ready for Love a game show with the contestants being stuffed in lighted, moving boxes? BTW, which just reminded me of the storage case my son used to keep his Mattel toy cars.
-Is it supposed to be a contest between matchmakers? Sure sounded that way with some of the matchmaker ITM's
-Is it yet another arena to showcase Guilana and her hubby? No thank you!

Agree too many bachelors and too many girls for one show. Plus I don't like the hosts.. they are too fake and don't add anything to the show! Maybe Eva needs to host herself.. :)

Didn't realize The Bachelor rates around 8-9, guess 3 mil is low. I must say I wasn't very interested the first night (gave up, watched later online); the second epi was more interesting. Not sure if they account for people who DVR or watch online in those #s, if they don't they're losing out. I can only think of 2 shows I actually make a point to watch when they initially air. The others I may be interested in but know I can watch at an alternate time.

At the end of the show tonight I believe I heard them say catch all new episodes every week on nbc.com. Anyone else hear that?

Yeah, I thought they said "starting next week catch new episodes on nbc.com". I thought they were going to show at least the 4/30 episode, maybe not.

Yup. I DVR'd it and just played that part back. Well, I guess at least we'll know who the guys chose. Glad they decided to put it somewhere.

I caught the very end of AfterBuzz TV & they said it was going to be airing on E! on Saturdays at 5PM. Not sure if I heard correctly but thats what I heard.

I was watching Chelsea Lately, they were gossip/trash talking about the "Ernesto-Eva" situation and Chelsea mentioned that RFL show used to be on NBC for 2 episodes and now is on E!.
