Ratings Review: MIND GAMES (Season One)

When I first watched the preview of this series, I thought it actually may have a chance to do well. Boy, was I completely wrong. I forgot to take into consideration the Christian Slater Effect.

Christian Slater has been in four series in the past five season and all have tanked. He is right up there with Jerry O'Connell with futility in TV success. Let's just hope the two do not get together for a new series, next year.

For the five episodes that aired, of MIND GAMES, it averaged just 2.63 million viewers and a 0.8 rating in Adults 18-49. I am sure there are unaired episodes, that were completed, but I doubt they will see the light of day. Perhaps Netflix will get them when the series is released.
