According to cancel bear, \u201cThe Resident\u201d is most likely to be renewed by May 2018. The show has an 18-49 rating of 1.13 and a Renew\/Cancel Index of 0.43, which is very good. Since the show is owned by Fox\u2019s affiliate studio, why haven\u2019t they sealed the deal yet?<\/p>\n
One possible explanation could be the Network does not want to commit to anything until upfront happen. Perhaps the network has an allocated budget to spend on certain shows, and if advertisers want a new show in the mix, they could forego \u201cThe Resident\u201d to make room. Fox has not even announced its upfront date yet.<\/p>\n
Another possible explanation is the network is trying to decide if “The Resident” is worth keeping around when “9-1-1”, which is of a similar genre, has already been renewed. Since critical acclaim has not been great, this could be a feasible explanation.<\/p>\n
Even though the show is staying consistent in ratings, Fox is holding off until the last possible minute.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
