What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the FOX television network, the Call Me Kat TV show is based on the British Miranda series and stars Mayim Bialik, Swoosie Kurtz, Kyla Pratt, Cheyenne Jackson, Leslie Jordan, and Julian Gant. Guests in season three include Ken Jennings, Kevin Sussman, and Parker Young. The story follows Kat (Bialik), a woman who struggles every day against society (and her mother) to prove that she can live a happy and fulfilling life — despite still being single at 39 years old. Kat’s mother, Sheila (Kurtz), views her daughter being single as her own personal failure. After leaving her job as a University of Louisville college professor, Kat spends the money her parents had set aside for her wedding to open a cat café. Working alongside Kat at the cafe are her friends, artist Randi (Pratt) and Phil (Jordan), a baker. As Kat celebrates her independence, her single-forever plans begin to veer off-course when her former crush and good friend, Max (Jackson), returns to town. Max takes a job as a bartender at the piano bar across the street from Kat’s place and works with his friend, Carter (Gant).
Season Three Ratings
The third season of Call Me Kat averaged a 0.21 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 1.17 million viewers in the live+same day ratings (includes all DVR playback through 3:00 AM). Compared to season two, that’s down by 41% in the demo and down by 35% in viewership. While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but the higher-rated series are usually renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled. Find out how Call Me Kat stacks up against other FOX TV shows.
Call Me Kat has been cancelled, so there will not be a fourth season. Could this comedy be revived someday? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will FOX cancel or renew Call Me Kat for season four? This show has done okay in the ratings but certainly can’t be called a hit. However, the show is co-owned by FOX, so the network makes money from the series in other ways, like streaming and international sales. Since Call Me Kat has made it to season three and it’s one of the few shows to be produced by FOX, I think there’s a good chance that it will be renewed for a fourth year.
