There’s a common phenomenon that happens with scripted television: If you take it off for a week for whatever reason, for some reason viewers have trouble finding it again. It’s almost like they have a full fourteen days without it in their life, and then think that they don’t really need to watch it to be […]
Benedict Cumberbatch always seems to have something on the go when it comes to promotion. The “Sherlock” star does a variety of film and theater roles, and he of course will be returning to New Year’s Day for the special subtitled “The Abominable Bride.” With promotions often come talk-show appearances, and his presence on “The […]
Thanksgiving is rather interesting when you think a little bit about some of the stuff that people choose to watch. For example, are there many other days that you imagine a dog show getting better ratings than such series as “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Scandal,” or “Dancing with the Stars”?

The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade has become an annual tradition, not just for NBC, and for us personally. There is little better than having some great food, kicking back, and watching a little bit of holiday cheer.

Sunday nights at 8:00 p.m. Eastern time has become more or less our go-to spot for all things awesome on ABC.
