They wouldn't have renewed it if the ratings were bad.

I'm wrong. The ratings really are bad. So why DID they renew it?

They supposedly added in the viewers from hulu to justify renewing it. NBC makes all the good decisions.

because it's one of VERY few critically acclaimed shows on NBC and lbr they don't have much else going on. Also it's incredibly cheap for them to get, the fans are rabid, and if they didn't pick it up someone else would have (guaranteed) so why not?

Because it's awesome? Really, it's because for one thing, the network made a killing selling it to foreign networks, so they don't lose money regardless of how poor the ratings are -- the other is that the head of NBC said she wants to keep attracting big name stars (like Mads Mikkelsen and Laurence Fishburne) to their network and knew that cancelling the show so quickly would hurt the network's rep. There was an article about her on ONTD a week or so ago...

Surprisingly so! (Argh, I'm trying to find the ONTD post, but the site is down for me right now...I'll try later.)

Here it is!

"NBC renewed Bryan Fuller's critically acclaimed Hannibal for a second season despite its lackluster ratings on Thursdays thanks largely to its rabid fan base and pedigree. "Would it be a smart move to take a show that represents quality and chop it off at the knees? I didn't feel like that would be a great decision and it would also affect the kind of talent we attract to the network," Salke said of the series, which stars Hugh Dancy and Mads Mikkelsen."

Wow, i wish other networks would keep good/interesting shows going despite 'ratings', and *because* of quality!

I didn't know that, but I'm so glad that the show will have a second season. They can do great things if they decide to follow the books and don't fuck with Clarice.

The network isn't making any money, they don't own it. They are buying it probably at a deep discount at this point. Good critical reviews even if no one is actually watching the damn thing.

Re: SA

Because the less than 2 million people who liked it REALLY liked it.
