14 DAY TRIAL // Despite all the scandals and the drama, Tori Spelling's reality show, True Tori, can't seem to get people in front of the TV screen and thus might be headed for cancellation in the very near future. The show was never big on audiences even in the first season when it almost scored 1 million viewers per episode.
Radar is now claiming that the second season of the series is faring much worse, despite some healthy doses of scandal and lots of drama on and off the show between Tori and her husband Dean McDermott.
Tori's reality series is dropping fast in ratings, doesn't look like it's going to make it another season
Lifetime inexplicably picked up the reality series for a second season but now they are allegedly regretting it since it's looking like the show might be a flop. The fake pregnancy storyline and the constant money trouble drama were unable to raise the number of viewers higher than 766,000, which represents a minuscule 0.3% in the 18-49 years viewer demographic.
To give you an idea, the show was beaten in ratings by re-runs of other popular show such as “Seinfeld,” “Ink Master,” “Family Guy” and an adult cartoon called “Squidbillies.”
The current season goes on for two more weeks, then it might go away forever
Ironically, the only thing that will save Tori's reality series from being canceled is the fact that it's only supposed to go on for just two more weeks. During that time, it's not expected that the ratings will go up over 1 million views, in fact, it's expected they will drop altogether.
Since this was Tori Spelling's main money-making venture, it's very likely that her financial troubles, the one she was crying on the show about, won't come to an end anytime soon. At the moment, her chances of getting picked up for another season are looking pretty slim, but there is always the possibility of another major scandal hitting her family, which might seduce the network into making another season and people into watching it.
Maybe Tori can convince Dean to cheat on her with a transgender woman, like some other successful reality television star has done, although she swears that the drama in her life is genuine.
Meanwhile, Tori is still in the hospital battling depression and pneumonia, while Dean was photographed having a good time, visiting an adult store and leaving it with a bag full of naughty stuff. Over the following media storm, he lashed out at detractors, claiming that he was tired of being the bad guy and, after all, it wasn't like he was the only man in the world who had cheated on his wife.
