Starz' "Party Down" (Season 3) - Blu-ray Forum

fatediesel · 07-01-2010, 01:34 PM

I read the Party Down finale got 74,000 viewers. No show is going to survive with numbers like that. Gravity did even worse with 54,000 viewers. Starz has a new president that was at HBO when they turned down Party Down.

Yeah Starz shows have numbers that somehow are lower than Damages on FX, although FX is available in probably 70 million more homes. The ratings where always garbage for Party Down so I never expected even a second season.

Its just so wierd that a network that is trying to get into Original Television and they cancel such a great show with amazing potential that may be the only show in TV history that would be able to sustain losing one of its main characters every season.

I am still holding out hope for a reunion/reboot on Netflix or something. I think the cast on the show have gotten a lot bigger, so it would be cool now if they could all team up for a limited series run on Netflix or something. Cast can take a month or two and film 6 quick episodes.

I enjoyed it, but never thought it was great.

Definitely think Megan Mullally helped make season 2 much better/funnier than season one.

Not Netflix, but a 6 episode limited revival is in development back at Starz.
