Cable Renew/Cancel - TBS, TruTV, Comedy Central & FXX: TBS Finds Some Success with The Misery Index

TBS, TruTV, Comedy Central and FXX haven't exactly been the busiest networks in the past few months, but it's still well past time for an update for these four networks, as I haven't updated my predictions for them since September. Keep reading to see what moves are in store for these shows and which shows have been renewed since the last update.

TBS:

Show	Status
Full Frontal With Samantha Bee	Certain Renewal
Celebrity Show-Off	Likely Cancellation
Lost Resort	Likely Cancellation
Tournament of Laughs	Certain Cancellation
The Misery Index	Renewed
The Last OG	Renewed
Miracle Workers	Returns TBA
American Dad!	Returns TBA
Chad	Premieres TBA
Obliterated	Premieres TBA
Wipeout	Premieres TBA
Go-Big Show	Premieres 2021

The Misery Index: TBS's move towards unscripted has not been beneficial for the network's ratings, but one show has managed to thrive despite that: The Misery Index. The comedic game show has been a strong performer for TBS despite some ratings declines in the second half of the season, and has been renewed for a third season at the network. This is a correct prediction.

The Last OG: Also receiving good news since the last update is The Last OG, which was somewhat unexpected, as I had predicted it for cancelation. This was never out of the question, though, as it was a decent-enough performer that it was easy to imagine it overcoming the obstacles to renewal.

TruTV:

Show	Status
Hot Ones: The Game Show	Likely Renewal
The Carbonaro Effect	Likely Renewal
Tirdy Works	Likely Renewal
Adam Ruins Everything	Likely Renewal
It's Personal with Amy Hoggart	Leans Renewal
At Home with Amy Sedaris	Leans Cancellation
Laff Mobb’s Laff Tracks	Leans Cancellation
Paid Off with Michael Torpey	Leans Cancellation
Impractical Jokers	Renewed
Tacoma FD	Renewed

At Home with Amy Sedaris: As time goes on, I've really soured on the odds of renewal for this acclaimed scripted comedy. COVID-19 precautions have made shows more expensive to film, and I don't know if TruTV will be able to afford a huge rise in productions costs for this show. It does well for them, but I don't think it does well enough to survive this pandemic, which has led to multiple cancellations across the TV industry. It LEANS CANCELLATION.

It's Personal with Amy Hoggart: It's been a long time since any news has come out about this show, and I can't feel so confident about it, particularly when it was a mediocre performer to begin with. It's being downgraded to LEANS RENEWAL.

Tirdy Works: I'm downgrading this show for similar reasons to It's Personal. It's been a few months and there's been very little news about it. I think it's still a LIKELY RENEWAL, but I want to be cautious here, given that it wasn't a huge performer or anything.

Comedy Central:

Show	Status
Bill Burr Presents: The Ringers	Leans Cancellation
Robbie	Likely Cancellation
South Park	Returns TBA
Crank Yankers	Renewed
Awkwafina Is Nora From Queens	Renewed

No updates.

FXX:

Show	Status
Cake	Likely Renewal
Archer	Renewed
It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia	Returns TBA
Dave	Returns TBA

Archer: Season 11 of this show came and went since our last updaste, and so did a renewal, meaning I never got to make a prediction for it. There isn't much else to say about this show until season twelve comes around next year.
