The ratings went up a tiny bit. I wonder if the next episode will see another (larger) uptick in ratings b/c it hasn't "officially" leaked in advance, like the first two episodes.

VBS7 Ep. 2 - Ratings - 0.672 Million Viewers.

It's absurd to even talk about ratings when AS puts the show @ the ass-end of the night; if they were committed to good ratings they'd put it in a prime slot...

Huh?
New Rick and Morty can pull 2.5 million in the same slot.
New RC pulls 1.0 million in the same slot.

Your argument holds no water.

Heck, I remember when the encores @ 2 a.m. were getting the best ratings and it confused [AS] employees. They wrote about it in bumps years ago.

You don't think the earlier time slot would lead to better ratings?

No. I actually don't support changing the timeslot for new episodes.

I think they should just show reruns daily and promote new seasons better.

The timeslot actually has little competition, and it has become a staple over the years that all these [AS] shows debut new episodes late on Sunday nights.

I think supporting the show in other ways would actually be better.

However, I'm a big supporter of the ideal that everything good on TV must end before it gets too many damn seasons.

So, in reality, I really only want one more season after this one.
But... I also want it to be another sixteen episode season, spread across two years. With a 90 minute (or 2 hour) series finale.

And I doubt any of that will happen.

So, I guess... do whatever [AS].
