Sarah Connor Chronicles Ratings in the Tank

Well this certainly … sucks. Apparently the ratings for the second season of The Sarah Connor Chronicles have been less than spectacular. In fact, they’re downright awful. Rumors are now beginning to circulate that if the show’s ratings doesn’t pick up sometime soon, FOX may cut Season 2 short and not renew it past the 13th episode that has already been ordered and put into production. Or at least, that’s the RUMOR coming from the TV gossip hounds. Here’s one of them, in response to a reader question about TSCC’s not-so-great ratings.

Via Ask Ausiello over at EW:

Question: How bad are the ratings for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles? — Dean

Ausiello: Armageddon-like? An SCC insider tells me that if the show’s numbers don’t start to climb, Fox is unlikely to order any additional episodes beyond the 13 currently in the pipeline. At Saturday’s EW pre-Emmy bash, Thomas Dekker remained hopeful that they could hold off doomsday at least until the end of football season. “We¹re up against Monday Night Football,” he sighed, “which is tricky because we have a lot of football fans.”

Ouch. “Armageddon-like”?

Man, how could a show this good not attract the attention of the TV watching public? Meanwhile, a piece of crap like Dancing with the Stars continues to get #1 ratings? What the hell is this country coming to?

An original, high-octane TV show versus a show with B and C-list “celebrities” dancing. No contest, right? Apparently not so much. It’s almost enough to drive a killer cyborg from the future psycho.
