  1. Love this show . If it was on channel 7 it would rate so much higher . Does that mean we r bias against ten and a show isn’t given its proper chance because of a tv stations reputatation or whatever ? Feels that way

  2. Any word if 10 will screen season 3? They would be smart to start now so that ratings boost instead of delay it by 5+ months like last year! In this day and age I don’t know why we have to wait so long for US shows 🙁
