There seems to be big trouble in paradise. After four airings, FOX has decided to pull the Paradise Hotel TV show from the network’s Monday and Wednesday night timeslots. The series will continue to air on Thursday nights and it appears that episodes are being condensed so that the season will still wrap on June 6th.
A FOX dating competition series, Paradise Hotel follows a bunch of sexy single people to a tropical getaway resort. They’re surrounded by sun and fun but they have to pair up and thrive in a wild competition to stay in the game and hope to win a cash prize. Each week, one contestant must leave the hotel to make room for a new guest. Home viewers get to play along and influence the game via social media. Kristin Cavallari hosts the series.
The four aired episodes of the first season of Paradise Hotel on FOX have averaged a disappointing 0.40 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 1.20 million viewers.
For the next two weeks (May 20th and May 27th), FOX is filling the Mondays at 9:00 PM timeslot with reruns of 9-1-1. On the following Monday (June 3rd), the network will be launching the 16th season of So You Think You Can Dance. The summer staple had been set to debut a week later, on June 10th.
On May 22nd, May 29th, and June 5th, the now-vacant Wednesdays at 9:00 PM timeslots will be filled with reruns of Gordon Ramsay’s 24 Hours to Hell and Back.
While FOX hasn’t issued any sort of official decree, it seems sure that the revival of Paradise Hotel has been cancelled. Two other incarnations of this reality series aired in 2003 and 2008. They only lasted one season apiece before being cancelled and it appears this one won’t be any different.
What do you think? Did you like this incarnation of Paradise Hotel on FOX? Would you like to see it return for a second season? Should it be cancelled?
I was hooked on this show and was so looking forward to the next episodes! I am VERY disappointed that this show has been canceled.
What tha……how can you just cancel something like this all of the sudden. I loved this show both times I have watched it. Now you’re going to have people wondering what happened. I was wanting to see how Tyler reacted when his X showed up. This show needs to continue through this season at least and then think about pulling it. You can’t just stop in the middle of it. Let’s BRING IT back PLEASE
I love Paradise hotel was one of my favorite TV shows it was different it was new I love it all of action keep you in suspense I am so upset is off the air
The show WAS promoted…alot. mostly through social media, but FOX ran commercials for weeks before the season premiere.
Love this show. I think it should be bought back. It is way better than the cooking shows. I like watching all the drama unfold and everyone trying to fight over men just to win love and money when in the end it is all just a game of people playing with each other’s emotions. Keep this show.
I’m so disappointed to hear this show has been cancelled. They didn’t even give the show a fighting chance. I was soo excited when I heard they were bringing this show back. I had always hoped that it would. I thought if they kept it the same as the original show it would be a hit. Whatever happened to introducing Pandora’s box?
They really took this show from a good “racy” and personality driven show to a lame “find a soul mate” bore fest. I loved the original and Pandoras box was a great segment. I was hoping they would use it. This show needs to be on cable not network TV
I like the show!!! I randomly came across it on Hulu and I don’t even watch reality shows! Ever! I actually look forward to it. I’m a little sad they are canceling. Who cares about dance And food competitions there are so many shows like that. Keep it! Keep it! Keeeep it!
The less reality junk on TV, the better. That’s they get for postponing season 8 of Last Man Standing until next year.
Man I never watch these kind of shows, I’ve caught I think 3 ever and didn’t watch all the episodes, cause live tv sucks and if I miss one, I miss it forever, I love seeing it on Hulu, and was glad to watch the drama unfold, did fox even account for the Hulu subscribers who watch, has regular tv forgotten that since tv went to digital, we either have to have some kind of digital antenna, which MOSt people never got, or we need cable to even watch regular channels, so Cord cutters don’t even have regular networks, we… Read more »
No loss! Those “reality/dating/relationship” shows are phony as a Ford Corvette. No one acts “naturally”, knowing they’re being recorded And who cares who’s seeing whom, anyway? Hope the whole genre tanks soon!
Please bring back show!!!! I like it way better then the other shows they r playing like shazem?? What is thatthis blows im sad
Omg i looked forward to watching show! Was enjoying itwhen i came home from work tonight waiting to watch ce to find out this happened! I was so heart broken ., and took it out on my family wtf!!!!! Please bring it back! Coolest show ever
I am SO disappointed to see that Fox has given up on Paradise Hotel SO quickly! After two weeks they cancel it? I don’t get it. Instead they should have promoted ur more, (I only came across it by accident and had NO idea it was even on before this.) The two weeks it has aired were big Season Finale weeks AND Season Premiere weeks for popular longtime running shows during the same or similar time slots. They should really give the show an honest chance of running and promote it some more rather than give up SO quickly. I… Read more »
Completely agree with this, they did NOTHING in promoting it. I was a huge fan of the original a hundred years ago and then by fate saw the new one advertise the night of the premiere. Absolutely nothing else. What did they expect?
I saw lots of advertising for it on tv the radio and the bus’s were I live had ads for it
Who really cares! Just more reality crap on Fox that we don’t need to have anymore! And sure they pick this junk up over The Cool Kids!? Omg you suck ***!
I’d like to finish watching Paradise hotel
