I agree but hopes of a renewal imo were probably squashed last night.

If you read my post again, I said "great show with good ratings." I'm not a ratings expert and I'm rather new to all of this, so my "good ratings" was simply based on the fact that ABC doesn't tend to have excellent comedies anymore, and this show seems to have an audience despite no lead-in. Sorry if this doesn't truly quality as "good ratings," to me, it does.
Miss Guided's ratings would qualify as "good" on the CW or cable, but not on ABC,CBS, NBC or FOX. For those networks Miss Guided's ratings would qualify as "this show will be cancelled soon."
I have no opinion on the quality of the show as I haven't watched it. But the quality of its ratings is very low for a major broadcast network.
Not for an ABC comedy -- those numbers make it ABC's 2nd highest comedy. I agree with Riley and others who stated that these numbers warrant renewal. Ratings are all relative, and his particular area is incredibly weak for ABC, so they'll take a comedy that is showing any signs of traction. For a little comedy with no lead-in on a night with no anchor (with LOST in reruns), both Miss/Guided and Eli Stone performed well.
