"I think that we had a really loyal, great audience on Tuesdays and we were hoping that with the move, they would come with us. It looks like they have, so things are good and we are going to keep building"
About this Quote
Chalke’s language is careful, almost managerial. “Loyal, great audience” is gratitude, but also a public signal to the network: we’ve got a base worth protecting. “We were hoping” softens what’s really at stake - anxiety about ratings, cancellation, and the blunt economics that decide whether a cast keeps its jobs. Then comes the measured relief: “It looks like they have.” Not “they did,” not triumph, just a cautious reading of early numbers, the kind of optimism you offer when you know a single bad week can change the narrative.
The ending - “things are good and we are going to keep building” - is classic promotional resilience. It frames the move as momentum, not disruption. Subtext: stay with us, keep showing up, prove the experiment worked. In an era when viewers could already drift to cable, DVDs, or emerging on-demand options, that plea for continuity is really about survival dressed up as confidence.
