If Blue Eyes 2.0 canโ€™t make it at MSNBC. . .

Via the New York Daily News:

Ronan Farrowโ€™s MSNBC talk show is facing cancellation amid poor ratings, sources exclusively tell Confidenti@l.
Farrow, 28 โ€” the opinionated, blue-eyed son of actress Mia Farrow and either Woody Allen or Frank Sinatra (even Farrowโ€™s not sure which) โ€” has been a disaster for MSNBC. The channel took the frequent cable-show guest and handed him his own program, โ€œRonan Farrow Daily,โ€ which premiered in late February.
โ€œHe sort of stinks on TV,โ€ an MSNBC source told Confidenti@l. โ€œHe hasnโ€™t turned out to be the superstar they were hoping for.โ€
The theory was that Farrow, a Rhodes scholar who graduated college when he was 15 and went on to score degrees from Yale and Oxford, would bring his 245,000 Twitter followers with him to television. โ€œBut that hasnโ€™t happened,โ€ the source said. โ€œJust because someone is a boy genius-turned-Twitter star doesnโ€™t mean they deserve their own TV show.โ€

MSNBC hired him because he has 245,000 Twitter followers? Piers Morgan has 4 million followers and you see how that worked out. And then thereโ€™s this:

Even worse: Wednesdayโ€™s show was 708th among all programming ranked by Nielsen, in both total viewers and the 18-to-49 age group advertisers covet. The midnight airing of โ€œBaggageโ€ on the Game Show Network came in ahead of it, at No. 707, and the 8 a.m. โ€œGolden Girlsโ€ on the Hallmark Channel (No. 700) crushed it.

Thatโ€™s not quite fair, as Baggage and Golden Girls are really, really good shows.

The whole thing here.
