By and large, we feel like AMC has some things to celebrate when you look at the ratings for Sunday night’s TV lineup. Despite there being some competition from the Billboard Music Awards, they generated some solid ratings for cable and hopefully set the stage for some good things to come moving forward. First, let’s […]
If you’re feeling slightly bummed-out about June being a quieter month when it comes to TV, rest assured that we’ve got a way for you to perk up and smile: It’ll be a tremendous month to catch up via Netflix! Let’s start here with a fan favorite show (especially on this site) in “Beauty and […]
Who knew that we were going to be getting a battle of Prince tributes at awards shows this year? Ever since the singer’s tragic death earlier this year we certainly expected some to be done; seeing one show throw shade at the other is what leaves us a little bit spellbound. Let’s start by reminding […]
The Billboard Music Awards are airing Sunday night, and there are a few things with this show that appeared to be somewhat of a foregone conclusion. For one, that we were going to see The Weeknd win a boatload of awards. How can you not when you’re nominated for almost twenty of them? We’re going […]
Given that Britney Spears is one of the most iconic pop stars of the past twenty years, can you really be surprised that the 2016 Billboard Music Awards chose to open things with a performance from her? We’re certainly not, especially when she still has something to promote in her “Piece of Me” show in […]
Clearly, “Saturday Night Live” learned last night that bringing back Fred Armisen to host your season finale is not a ratings draw. As a matter of fact, his show pulled some of the lowest numbers of the entire season. Surprisingly, last night’s show (which also featured musical guest Courtney Barnett) drew a disappointing 1.7 rating […]
The 2016 Billboard Music Awards are going to be airing starting at 8:00 p.m. Eastern tonight on ABC, and there’s quite a bit to expect. Performance-wise, the likes of Lukas Graham, Ariana Grande, Blake Shelton, and Gwen Stefani are going to be joining the likes of Justin Bieber, Celine Dion, DNCE, The Go-Go’s, Demi Lovato, Shawn […]
Courtney Barnett may not be a household name to every viewer of “Saturday Night Live,” but we have a feeling that she is a pretty close match to the musical sensibilities of our host for the occasion in Fred Armisen. The song that Barnett chose to do first on the show was “Nobody Really Cares […]
There were a few finales that aired on primetime TV last night, and for the most part, we’d say that a familiar tradition held: The numbers went up! While there are some shows clearly in need of a ratings lifeline moving forward, they can at least boast that they ended on a high note. The […]
Ever since the release of the Fox fall schedule a little earlier this week, we were curious as to the decision-making behind shelving baseball drama “Pitch” until the spring. Given that this is a show featuring a complete MLB license, why wouldn’t you use the chase to the World Series as a promotional effort? Apparently, […]
