katikatThe Hollywood Reporter's list of shows on the bubble...:
-- Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: Fans need not worry: Sources say that Terminator will be back. Fox executives like the creative product and thought the finale's performance last week was solid. The network also spent a considerable amount marketing the show, giving Season 2 some cost benefit. Also: The fourth Terminator movie comes out in 2009.
-- Moonlight: CBS is playing wait-and-see with this Friday night show. The network is curious whether the show's fans return once it comes back from its strike-induced hiatus. But Moonlight fans are passionate, the show fits well into CBS' Friday night alternative crime block and an eventual pickup is probable.
-- Jericho: CBS must make this decision quickly since only three episodes remain in Season 2 and the network has to choose Ending A or Ending B. Two conclusions to the season have been shot. One puts a narrative lid on the series (lest protesting fans pelt CBS executives with thousands of pounds of nuts again), the other more of a cliffhanger. CBS notes that the show gains from DVR viewership and online viewing, but after its performance the past two weeks, most doubt the citizens of Jericho will live to fight another season.
-- Reaper: Critics loved the pilot of the CW's supernatural drama, then griped that the series lost its way. The show returns tonight against ABC's Lost and needs divine intervention to come back strong enough to make the network add it to its list of previously announced pickups. The chances for the CW comedy Aliens look even slimmer.
-- Friday Night Lights: NBC is in talks with DirecTV for the satcaster to share the costs for a third season in exchange for some exclusive distribution opportunities.
List of all shows, picked up, pending and on the bubble.
