against Game of Thrones seems like such a horrible idea. I'm watching this on DVR at this point since this show at the moment isn't appointment viewing, so I have to imagine ad revenue via live viewers isn't all that high.

Unless this show costs peanuts to make, I can't see how this show is netting AMC top dollar. It's sad because the actors/actresses aren't doing bad jobs with the material they are given, so I want to see where the show goes. But at the same time, I wouldn't be too surprised if the plug is pulled after this run of episodes because I can't see this being a huge hit.
