I thought it was really well done, especially for an NBC show. Love almost every character, cept the boyfriend with the rich daddy. |

Hey Drew i just checked out the first episode online...Did the episode you saw end with the girl singing karaoke??? The episode online was pretty long, 55 minutes..So i think NBC would have had to edit it.. But i did like the episode..The main character really drew me in..and i liked the blog idea..I'll check out the ratings tomorrow and maybe add the show to my dvr next week.. |

According to Zap2it... The on-air debut of "Quarterlife" flopped, drawing only a 2.7/5 for NBC. OUCH.... |

...ouch NBC bombs with "quarterlife" premiere By James Hibberd 12 minutes ago The debut of NBC's new series "quarterlife" marked the network's worst time-period performance in at least 17 years and has thrown the show's fate into imminent jeopardy. Premiering Tuesday night at 10 p.m., "quarterlife" pulled in just 3.1 million viewers. It came in a distant last place in the hour despite having a relatively strong lead-in from "The Biggest Loser" (8.1 million). Though no official cancellation has been announced, sources say the series is expected to be yanked after a single airing -- a rare event that previously occurred when Fox axed "Anchorwoman" last summer. NBC Entertainment co-chairman Ben Silverman said "quarterlife" was "so worth the try." "The web site traffic went up a huge amount and we continue to try new things and new models," Silverman said. "It's very inexpensive but we hoped for higher ratings." The series made headlines when NBC picked up "quarterlife" in November after it debuted on MySpace, with producers Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick making an unprecedented deal to retain ownership of a network series. NBC has noted that "quarterlife" was an opportunity to pickup a scripted series with online following during the uncertain writers strike. Since "quarterlife" already ran online, and MTV aired the show earlier on Tuesday, the show's target audience may have been tapped out before the network premiere. Otherwise, Fox won the night once again, thanks to a 90-minute "American Idol" that averaged 29 million viewers. Reuters/Hollywood Reporter |

Why don't they move it to a deadzone like saturday night to burn off the episodes..I think a 10pm slot is a little late for the show..and tuesdays should be called the American Idol night... |
