Matt Carter American Idol, The Tomorrow People
This is the time of year where you really start to see where the rubber hits the road when it comes to some of the shows on the schedule, and with that in mind today, we have to start with whether or not “American Idol” is actually turning things around in season 13 after last […]
This was news that is very sad to see, but almost everyone saw it coming: The end of “The Michael J. Fox Show” at NBC. Despite getting a full season before a pilot was even shot last year, the network has basically decided to pull the plug now and will not air remaining episodes of […]
Here is something that almost no one probably bet on after the Super Bowl ratings came in for “New Girl” and “Brooklyn Nine-Nine“: The latter show lost in the ratings to something that has been a punching bag for critics around the country since the premiere. In something that is sure to make our frequent […]
Obviously, Netflix is figuring out that they really like what they are seeing from “House of Cards.” As a matter of fact, they are showing a willingness to bring the show back for another season without the second go-around even being made available for streaming customers yet. Netflix made the big decision official today, giving […]

Melissa McCarthy was the host of this weekend’s “Saturday Night Live,” and obviously, the hope for her was that she was going to be able to draw some big numbers on the weekend of the Super Bowl.
