Following the third series of the ITV hit Primeval, the British broadcaster announced they will not renew Primeval for a fourth series. The show, which averaged six million viewers in its first two series, was down to five million viewers in the third series, which is still way more than Reaper got in the US.

Of course, no viewer diet pill would have been enough to force Primeval’s ratings down to Reaper territory if the show had been anywhere near as popular as BBC-1′s Doctor Who. Just goes to show you that a Time Lord can still beat a dinosaur, even if Matt Smith is the Time Lord in question.
