Ratings Review: THE NEIGHBORS (Season Two)

If you are a fan of THE NEIGHBORS, then you may not want to continue with this short review. I feel that THE NEIGHBORS is the worst sitcom on TV today. Worse than the poorly rated NBC comedies. Worse than THE MINDY PROJECT or DADS, from FOX.

ABC needs to kill this project ASAP and place something decent in the 8:30, Friday night slot. It is the one element that hurts the night, keeping ABC from dominating Friday nights, every week of the season.

 For the season, THE NEIGHBORS averaged 4.01 million viewers and a 0.8 rating in Adults 18-49, for the 22 original episodes and two encore episodes. If we are luck, we will not be subjected to any more episodes of THE NEIGHBORS. Those that are fans can enjoy the 44 episodes already on Netflix, for all of eternity.
