If it didn’t already, it might stink to be Kirstie Alley after the ratings her reality show has been getting!
The season gained less than stellar ratings even with Gene Simmon’s Family Jewels as a lead in, dropping about 600,000 viewers in that brief moment between the two shows, averaging about 1.3 million viewers.
In comparison, cable shows like MTV’s The Hills draw nearly 3 million viewers, and the season finale of Jersey Shore brought in over 4 million.
We’ve seen Kirstie Alley’s Big Life, and we can’t even believe it’s listed as reality. It might as well be “scripted” like The Hills, and Kirstie herself tries to spend the entire program attempting to be hilarious, and failing miserably.
They ought to cancel this show tomorrow, and save everyone the trouble of even thinking about what to do with it.
A source tells Starzlife EXCLUSIVELY; “Kirstie is a strong woman and not afraid to speak her mind, but she knows the numbers for her reality show weren’t that great. Her name itself may be enough to get her picked up for another season, but she knows if she want’s to further her career and get back on television, she’s going to have to try and land a role on a network scripted series.”
Alley may have hinted to just that during recent interview when she revealed that she’s got her sights set on two of networks biggest shows, Glee, and Modern Family.
She explains; “I want to play the gay guy’s mom,” making a reference to the character of Cameron, but jokingly adding; “they’ve got to do it quick, while I’m still plump.”
She was joking about losing the weight, right?
Sorry Kirstie, might want to stick to your blog, TV seems to be over you.
Have any of you guys seen Big Life? Isn’t it tragic?
You guise are decks. KABL is totes mcgoats hilarzity.
i love kirstie alley’s show big life.. i cant wait to watch it when my 3 year old goes to bed.. kirstie is so down to earth and not afraid to tell how she feels… i willl be very disapointed if her show goes off air. i would love to meet kirstie alley amoung others.
My husband and I both watch Big Life. Jim is a favorite. Was last night’s the season finale? We can tell they are both losing weight, and love the term “chubby buddies”. We enjoyed watching Lillie learn to park, and thought it was so funny that Kirstie knocked over a cone. We certainly hope there is another season. And would enjoy watching Kirstie on another sitcom.
Actually no I thought it was really good. I always would watch in on Fios. I want lemurs!
I enjoyed it so I’ve been watching it. I think its funny and also I need to lose weight. Also I think she looks quite attractive for age 59.
I’m sorry for my horrible show, guys, really!
I’m going to go eat some cake now.
I am so bummed about this trainwreck of a show I am going to go make a pie!!!
Yha, Make pie turn into poo!!!
ARE U KIDDING ME??
This is a horrible biased rating! I happened to love this show and it was hilarious, Kirstie was being herself and it was obvious. She does not deserve this kind of harsh judgment from a nobody. Seriously this was one of my favorite reality shows. I hope she just keeps doing bigger things even though shes already a famous star.
