Which midseason replacements top the list?

25 February, 2016

While some are very popular, midseason replacements are typically shows that the network considers to be weaker shows and so holds them as fillers for later in the traditional television season. These midseason replacements tend to premiere between January and May.

We looked at the median Demand Expressions™* for midseason replacements in the US from 19 January to 22 February 2016 to find the top 10 most in demand in the last month.

We see the recent revival X-files topping this list followed by It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia currently airing its 11th season.
