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 like this show a lot! Im gonna be super bummed if they dont finish it
The 2003 season was great! This one isn’t as good as the original, but it’s better than the 2008 season! I don’t get to watch it live (it comes on too early, my kids are still up) so maybe that is hurting the ratings. Overall I like it and it should stay!
Please move/give the show rights to MTV/VIACOM, VH1, NETFLIX, HULU, or CW if you cannot carry it FOX
I don’t watch tv, but since i saw this on my Hulu i was actually hooked. I couldn’t wait for the next episodes. Oh well.
Love the show!! Want to see more of it!! It’s great entertainment and fun to watch the relationships develop and unfold.. the drama and fun is awesome!! Don’t cancel!!
I want to continue to see what happens! There are chances for some of those people to find love I wanna see that and of course the episode it left off was lots of drama and saying an ex was appearing I’m kinda upset it’s not on tonight so I can see what went down… bummer.
My girl and I are waiting to see Tyler’s ex bring the drama to the power couple of the show..
FOX doesn’t realize most of us don’t watch these shows live.. poor ratings don’t account for the rest of us who stream these episodes later..
I also PVR (tape) this show as all my other shows because sometimes I’m not home and don’t want to miss it. Disappointed the show will only be 1 time a week.
I love the show and was bummed to see it wasn’t on Monday? Darn that was fast! Their is nothing else better on right now so why not keep it? Who wants to watch re-runs?
I think Fox misadvertised this show. I had zero intention of watching it because it looked like just another’s Bachelorete lame azz show..but, it came up on my hulu accidentally and I started watching now I’m hooked. It appeals to both girls and guys.
The Show is really good I think it should be kept, it’s very interesting to watch I love 5 stars . It’s something new to watch
Keep the show! My husband and I love watching it!
I love this show! It’s my guilty pleasure. I was wondering what happened and why it wasn’t on 2 nights anymore. Very disappointed that it will be canceled. I watch it through Hulu.
I don’t have cable so I watch on my Android. I love the drama on this show! Please don’t cancel!
Definitely keep the show on air! Disappointed to hear about the cancellation of Monday and Wednesday nights as well!!
Please don’t cancel. Have not missed an episode and this season’s host, Kristin Cavalerie is by far the best host in the history of Paradise Hotel and I have watched all 3 seasons!! Please don’t cancel and would love to see a season 2 with Kristin!!!
