Alone Together was canceled a few weeks ago, to no one's surprise except for streaming junkies claiming that the show will be saved because of streaming. Even then, ratings were too low for Freeform to justify a renewal for the show. This was a correct prediction for the TV Ratings Guide.

On TNT, Good Behavior was canceled a month ago. This was also a show that was the lowest rated veteran on TNT and the fact it took almost a year for a decision meant bad news for the series. This was a correct prediction for the TV Ratings Guide.

For now, we can turn our attention on Syfy.

Van Helsing's ratings fell to a new low of a 0.07 on Friday in the key adults 18-49 demographic. That's not a renewable number on Syfy, even if the rest of its ratings square it in the middle of the pack. To make matters worse, Z Nation ticked up to a 0.15. Why the sudden collapse from low 0.1s to below a 0.1 in unrounded ratings? I don't know for sure, but it's enough for the show to tilt it leaning towards cancelation.

Nightflyers premiered okay, to a 0.15 in the key demographic. It is somewhat underwhelming, considering it has tied fifth season show Z Nation, but a 0.15 still makes it one of the top 5 shows on Syfy this year. It starts at "leans renewal". For now, it is safe until I see more data points.
