Here's Why Priyanka Chopra's ABC Show, 'Quantico,' Is Likely To Go Off Air

  • Here's Why Priyanka Chopra's ABC Show, 'Quantico,' Is Likely To Go Off Air
According to TV By The Numbers, a website that tracks the ratings of TV shows in the US, the show has seen a drastic dip in the ratings despite being given a primetime slot on Monday.
 
The website notes, "A while back the Bear noted that Quantico's move to Monday nights would likely result in marginal ratings gains at best. That didn't happen, and thus the show is getting a downgrade to a likely cancellation."
 
Two shows that have recently been canceled include Notorious and Conviction. The ratings for these shows were 0.87 and 0.64 respectively.
 
 
Quantico, on the other hand, is dangling at a dangerous 0.76, which means if it doesn't show an upward swing in the coming weeks, it'll certainly be taken off air.
 
he tracking website isn't too optimistic on PC's espionage drama.
 
It further noted: "Quantico probably won't move much higher than its current ratings this season and ABC should cut ties with it at season's end."
 
 
The website follows something called as a 'Bear Methodology.' If a show gets one bear, it means 'Certain Cancellation' while two bears, which Quantico is currently at, means 'Likely Cancelation.'
 
Did Priyanka Chopra Take A Pay Cut For 'Quantico' Third Season?
 
A report said that Chopra is doing everything in her capacity to keep the show afloat, even slashing her acting remuneration by half.
 
Priyanka Chopra can go to any lengths to get her American show, 'Quantico', a third season. Since the last season got a lukewarm response, the channel apparently wanted to drop the show.
 
 
However, while the writers have come up with some plot twists worth considering, Priyanka, we hear, has also reduced her fee by almost half. With 'Baywatch' hitting the screens soon, money is hardly a matter of concern for the star.
