If this show gets bad ratings, it'll be because of the schedule. It's gotten to be a crap shoot each week whether we'll actually see the next episode. I, my wife, and my 13 year old son sit down for this every Tuesday night, and we've been frustrated several times with reruns instead of being shown the next part of the story. And we can't find the schedule online anywhere, so we don't know if it's a new episode this week until we turn it on. It's gotten to the point where if it wasn't for it being a family thing for us, I'd give up on it and just catch it a year from now when it's on Netflix or somewhere.
I don't watch much TV, so I don't know if this is a normal thing. The last TV show I watched regularly/weekly was Star Trek: The Next Generation. I got into Buffy the Vampire Slayer during the last season, and that show did this same thing. Trying to follow what was going on drove me crazy because I didn't know I was seeing reruns sprinkled through the regular story. I watched Buffy for about 10-12 weeks, and half of the airings were reruns.
