Telly’s Take
The Real O’Neals had questionable ratings in its first season and they’ve dropped in season two. Several episodes have drawn less than a 0.9 rating in the demo. ABC could renew it for a third season but I suspect they’ll cancel it instead and find something new to fill the timeslot. Sorry O’Neals.

I thought the show was pretty cute, gotta say I wanted Eileen(forgive if misspelled) and Pat to get back together. In my mind it was only a matter… Read more »
Please don’t cancel the show! I absolutely love “The Real O’Neals.” My own life seems to mirror a lot of the same situations and some of the friends i had as Kenny did. The show brings me so many laughs i can’t control myself! I would think that the person whose life this show is loosely based on would want to keep on going similarly like “The Goldberg’s” which is also hilarious as it shows “Real life” situations.

My boyfriend and I just started watching it bring it back we only watched season 2 please don’t cancel it
Im pissed that you canceled The Real O’Neals. It was funny. Imaginary Mary is not funny.
This show is hilarious, original and has a good message. Would be foolish to cancel. Much better than many other sitcoms!
