July show premieres – fill up your TIVOs

Hey everyone. Still recovering from that shocking ending of episode 3 of Rescue Me? So are we. Wandering why the 4400 seems to be re-starting the series, and bringing old twists and subplots into the latest season? Maybe it’s the popularity of superheroes (that new NBC’s show, remember?) that guides their writing. Ready for some [...]

Summer shows you cannot miss

Hey, you. Think that just because you TIVOed all season finales you got everything covered? Think you can spend the next three months catching up on soaps, b-list throwaway shows and reruns? You’re wrong, buddy. FX, Bravo, Showtime, and many other TV channels have discovered the joy of sex, ahem, the joy of launching (premiering) [...]

On the Lot (FOX)

Anyone caught this show yet? This is a reality show – and I know how rarely these are mentioned on the site. Still, looks like it could be worth our time. Plus, FOX is being very smart about it – they are launching it in summer – best time to get people hooked on weaker [...]

NBC’s fresh and freshly-killed shows

Wow, did NBC take a dive with overhauled “Raines” hourlong. When I saw the early pilot of the show, it looked quirky, even too smart for television. What you could easily confuse with a Medium rip-off, turned out to be more tongue-in-cheek, more realistic, and yet, had more humour and life. Well, that was the [...]

TV Shows – good news and bad news

If you didn’t see this coming, why do you even bother turning on the television. Most of these are obvious, but it’s always a good thing to make cancellations official. No need to keep the fans (heh) in the dark. I can’t agree on the full season orders (except for Studio 60 yay, team), but [...]

Smith and Kidnapped are canned

It’s just too bad about Smith, although I couldn’t care less about Kidnapped. When NBC resorts to ripping off a FOX show, that’s a bad sign. Not that there’s anything wrong with FOX in particular – 24 and House are amazing entertainment, consistently from episode one. But, pardon the unpopular opinion, Prison Break and Vanished [...]
