I'd love to know the ratings between the first episode and the second. I'm sure they will drop.
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open.
This is my fight song.
Based on this start, yes. Very,very spirit of the original show. Awful premier.

I don't think it's just the drop between episodes, but the "started, but didn't finish" (i.e. changed channels during the show).
Remember E-Ring? It's been said by some insiders Bruckheimer could hear the network jiggling the toilet's flush handle mid-premiere and was quickly retooling.
Unless they have a few aces up their sleeves ("Show a little imagination - don't make them all spades") for us, this will likely not make it beyond 7 episodes...just in time to avoid the humiliation of Sweeps.
It's too bad the highest-level powers that be can't read boards like this...
Yeah, especially on CBS which isn't necessarily desperate. If it were NBC I could see them maybe trying to retool or something and give it time. But you could just tell it didn't have anything and wouldn't ever develop anything without scrapping basically everything and starting over. Makes you wonder how this crap even got past the pilot phase to series order like this.
shareThat's what I'm wondering.
If this is so awful and they still put it on the schedule, how bad were the other shows that didn't even make it past the pilot? Were they that bad? So much worse than this?
Yeah, I mean it's become usual these days for them to just fastrack things straight to series, especially this reboot stuff thinking it already has a built in audience, and to some degree they're right. But yeah, it's like did they even look at the pilot, let alone say "we need to make some changes here"? Network tv truly is lost.
shareNetwork tv truly is lost.
I'm sure you relish in knowing that something is failing. Describes internet mentality pretty well.
