Is the UK jealous? Mary Berry is on ‘The Great American Baking Show’
Mary Berry is a treasured reality show judge who is extremely popular in the UK.

And Finally…. Which Fall TV shows will be cut?
It’s December and the decision of networks on what TV shows debuting in the fall lineup hasn’t been completely deciphered. This is a weird year in some respects as the decision of what programs will be cut and what programs will be reordered usually is crystal clear by now. Instead, viewers are left wondering if a few shows will be back and, if so, when. Thanks to technology it’s taking longer to see the final viewing numbers. People are using DVRs, apps and even streaming online so these numbers take longer to add up. (Photo: ABC.)
