If be funny if they cancelled the show and we get to see their faces...

Their reaction would be like "s***, was this show really THAT bad?"

and it's funny since they all expected to remain there for a year and have to leave less than 4 months 😅

for some reason Fox won't can this show...probably so they don't have the shame of cancelling their big budget show. this show will never find viewers no matter how long they keep this on the air. it's too late. the first few episodes are crucial and they basically leveled off at CW ratings

Does the show really have that big of a budget? It seems about as low budget as they could get.

I would think the outsiders coming in are telling them how badly the show is doing in the ratings. If it wasn't for IMDB showing me pages that I've viewed recently at the bottom of the screen, I'd forget all about this show.

I see it down there and I'm like "Oh yeah! I wonder if Utopia is still on the air." So I come here.

Try to guess which famous celebrity I am.

I'm absolutely sure that they know it already. I mean, they have 20-50 visitors every day during the weekend. I'm sure at least one of them said, "Geez you guys, spice things up. Your show is tanking badly. It's only on every other Friday these days."

That's true. But, the viewership has leveled off. It's on a Friday where getting a handful of viewers is actually pretty good. And the show seems cheap to make. You just need to pay the film editors and that narrator guy.

Amusingly enough, the compound is paying for itself these days with tourist income. They make about $3,000 on a weekend and that has to cover food, water, electricity, and so on.
