Bravo's take on the reality genre, The It Factor, isn't scoring in the
ratings.
Four weeks into the series, its highest Nielsen Media Research household
score has been a 0.31, which is just below the arts network's average prime time
rating. Typically, network executives look for original series to significantly
beat their averages.
The series is The Real World meets A Chorus Line, tracking a
handful of aspiring actors as they try to make it in film and theater.
Of course, the other reality series are loaded with aspiring actors -- The
It Factor is the only one advertising that fact.
Nevertheless, Bravo has renewed the series, and it is casting for a second
season this weekend in Los Angeles.
