Telly’s Take

Will ABC cancel or renew The Great Christmas Light Fight for season six? It’s a little too soon to use the ratings to predict that, but even with weekly numbers, cancellation or renewal prediction is tricky business for holiday series. The Nielsens are never great, in part, because viewers tend to be busy during December. That’s why many network TV series tend to go on a mid-season hiatus, and it is why those networks fill the airways with holiday specials and lower budget productions, such as this. Still, I will keep an eye on the Nielsen ratings and update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on The Great Christmas Light Fight cancellation or renewal news.
