Actor David Spade is typically known for his roles on shows like Rules of Engagement and Just Shoot Me, two comedy series that each enjoyed long, successful runs. Now, he’s trying his hand at hosting a FOX game show. Will Snake Oil also be a success? Will this new show be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
A game show, the Snake Oil TV series is hosted/produced by Spade and executive produced by Will Arnett. In each episode, contestants are pitched unique (and often bizarre) products by very convincing entrepreneurs. Some showcase real business ventures, while others are “Snake Oil Salesmen” whose products are fake. With the help of guest celebrity advisors, contestants must determine which products are real and which are a sham, for a chance to win life-changing money. Celebrity guests include Will Arnett, Christie Brinkley, Kandi Burruss, Adam Devine, Bethenny Frankel, Dwight Howard, Ice-T, Natasha Leggero, Brad Paisley, Jay Pharoah, Rob Riggle, Darius Rucker, JB Smoove, and Michelle Williams.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances of survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.
12/14 update: You can see the latest night’s ratings in context.

Note: These are the final national ratings, including all live+same day viewing and DVR playback (through 3:00 AM). Early fast affiliate ratings (estimates) are indicated with an “*”. While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.
What do you think? Do you like the Snake Oil TV series on FOX? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
