FX Puts an End to The Riches
After enduring a ratings hit and a shortened second season, FX’s The Riches is officially being put to rest.
When the series originally debuted back in March 2007, it pulled in approximately 3.8 million viewers. Unfortunately, the Eddie Izzard/Minnie Driver drama saw a significant drop just one year later. Riches - already hurt by the writers strike - saw a 44% drop in the key 18-49 demo when Season Two kicked off in March 2008.
Fortunately for FX, this failed program won’t keep the network from celebrating. Just last month, Damages became one of the first two basic cable programs ever to be nominated for Best Drama. Meanwhile, the channel has already decided to renew Sons of Anarchy for a second season.
