The Masked Singer: It's not hard to see why this show is predicted as a CERTAIN RENEWAL. It certainly isn't guaranteed that it'll stay at the level it's at, but The Masked Singer is a huge hit so far. It also held relatively steady between weeks two and three, onyl shedding a tenth despite the ability to see another harsh drop. It could coast to renewal at half the level it's currently performing at, and with Fox seeming to be headed towards a heavy reality focus, it's in abslutely no danger.

The Titan Games: It's performing very well, but The Titan Games hasn't show signs of stabilizing quite yet. While it fell an acceptable two tenths in its second week, it slipped a further three this week against increased competition for ABC. That still upt it at 1.3, which is very much renewable, but NBC is still more crowded than any other network, so if Titan keeps falling, it may find itself out of luck. For that reason, it enters only as a LIKELY RENEWAL this week despite its high average

AGT: The Champions: This reality spinoff isn't on the level of its parent series, but it's still gotten off to a great start. It held nicely in week two and is performing better than the Wall/Better Late Than Never pairing that aired in this slot in winter 2018. NBC is probably thrilled with its performance, even if it isn't as huge as The Masked Singer. Either way, the show's a huge win for NBC and it's a CERTAIN RENEWAL.
