Good. Now I can stop obsessing over the ratings for another 8 months.

I'm really curious about the terms of the pick up. Did the budget take a drastic hit, etc.?

I'm guessing the option to renew for 2018 is dependent upon the ratings, and realistically, I think a one-year deal keeps them more on their toes than an automatic two years. We'll see....

I was worried, I still say, they have to make some changes.

Is that the picture of Brady and Belle from the scene that never made it to air?

I said all along around mid-February we would get the news and here we are.

My feeling was always that any possible cuts would be announced right before a dark week so I expect that to be the next set of news. I always expected a one year with an option type deal. I think that is all they will get from now on because it does keep them on their toes and makes them act with urgency. They get way too complacent when they have multi-year renewals.

I think they will have to demonstrate consistency in the ratings and by that I mean they have to do well during sweeps periods and during the times of the year where networks expect solid performance. Days has had a nice 6 month run here. If they can do decent every sweeps period and from September-February throughout this contract than they will likely get the option for another year. This is basically NBC telling them to show they can maintain the growth they have shown and, if they can, they will be ok.

Damn. Lysie is making me nervous on Twitter.

Is Tomlin coming back as part of this deal or something? :rolleyes:

Hopefully there's some kind of taping hiatus as part of the renewal agreement.

Any word on whether or not the budget was slashed? Not that there's much more to slash, but...

I think it will be better in the long run.

I know nothing about this deal except that it happened.

Awesome news! I just hope there's no monkey's paw that comes along with this news...

I do hope the report on a production hiatus is true as well. If they can find a way to make things work with a smaller gap between film and air then I say do it. There needs to be time in between to make changes when needed.
