Here's an update on ratings on MyNetwork TV. Based on national data for the week of Nov. 27, Desire averaged a 0.7 rating/ 1 share and a 0.3/ 1 among adults 18-49. Fashion House was a 0.8/ 1 in households and a 0.4/ 1 in the demo. Not good!
They need to promote those telenovelas as sitcoms and put a laugh track in them.

It'll catch fire - you just wait all you skeptics.
I wonder how Roger Ailes and Fox will fix this piece of crap of a network. They should halt any production on other stinker series they are producing and see if the new shows improve at all. If they don't, go back to the drawing board and bring in some of the other programming that was supposed to air.
Typical Fox move. All other media companies are "the enemy." When they were caught off guard by the UPN/WB merger, instead of doing the rational thing of running syndication on their former UPN affils, they manifested their bile with this patently inferior programming. "Cutting their nose to spite their face."

Maybe could have worked in late night. Remember that it was created as a "protest" against sitcom license fees.

Weren't they going to put some Fox News produced programs at first (I don't want to touch off a Fox News vs. CNN or liberal vs. conservative thread but I thought I had read that)? That would probably do better than this telenovela fiasco. Although, give Bo Derek and Morgan Fairchild credit for looking pretty good at their ages.
