Thanks guys. Don't sweat ratings yet. If we're going to survive, it'll take 4-5 weeks to get numbers to = LMS... Fingers crossed.

Yeah, read my timeline. Haven't seen any #s yet, but I doubt we'll do as well as people hope.
I wanna bitch slap everyone that doesnt give a chance to this epic show.
I have so much respect for the cast and producer. They literally did EVERYTHING in their power to keep this show alive, even when the network wasnt supporting them.
This show obviously means a lot to them, and they are having as much fun as we're having.
the return of cougar town to abc's line up drew a certainly disappointing to fans 1.8 adults 18-49 rating. Our polled readers were a bit too optimistic.
Viewers: 4.847
how on earth can no one like this show ????!!!!!!!

Look, thanks everyone. Keep spreading word. Our chance to close gap is when GLEE disappears (one more week). Then we will see... Hopeful.

I am still very hopeful. Odds of CT survival holding steady at 65-35 in favor. And I'm sober...
I hope so too...and Cougar Town should get the slot after Modern Family...Modern Family is doing AMAZING in Ratings this Season and Cougar Town could get a lot profit from it, and both of those Shows are funny as hell.
At 8:30 p.m., “Cougar Town” produced big year-to-year improvement for ABC in the half-hour, boosting its slot by 31% in Adults 18-49 over original programming on the same night last year (1.7/4 vs. 1.3/4 on 2/22/11).
“Cougar Town” delivered strong retention of its week-earlier season premiere in Total Viewers (94%), Adults 18-49 (94%) and Adults 18-34 (100%), while jumping 11% in Men 18-34
Cougar Town (4.3 million, 1.5) sunk to series lows. Given its performance since it returned, Cougar Town is looking unlikely to get a renewal with these numbers. Same goes for freshman series The River (4.1 million, 1.5), which fell 15 percent. Body of Proof (6.7 million, 1.3) was down 13 percent.
People are missing out on a great comedy. There's absolutely no chance of this show being picked up for another season. 1.5 is beyond terrible for a huge network like ABC!
It was up against Idol last night so if it recovers in the next few weeks it still might get a chance
But Bill told the actors to look for pilots while they await the outcome. So who knows!
