Will the Dice TV show be cancelled or renewed for a second season? It’s a crapshoot. Deadline reports from the TCA summer presser, that when asked about the comedy’s chance at a second season renewal, Showtime boss David Nevins said, “We are talking about it.”
The half-hour comedy stars Andrew Dice Clay, as a fictionalized version of himself, with Natasha Leggero (Carmen), and Kevin Corrigan (Milkshake). The first season of six episodes averaged 0.07 in the 18-49 year old ratings demographic, and drew an average total of 0.191 million viewers (i.e. 191,000).
We currently track ratings for 11 scripted Showtime series. Those anemic numbers put the Dice TV series at the very bottom of Showtime’s programming slate.
What do you think? Did you watch the first season of Dice? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season on Showtime.
I can’t believe there’s even a consideration of cancelling dice, it the freshest, funniest, heartfelt laughter on Cable TV or anywhere for that matter.
Wicked show!!! I laughed my ass off every show. Great characters. I wouldn’t change a thing. Please let there be a season 2!!!!
