We will never understand the strategy of airing new episodes of any show opposite the Golden Globes, with one key exception: You do not really have any intention of keeping these shows on the air in the first place. This is the fate that ultimately befell ABC’s Sunday-night lineup this week. The awards show drew […]
Clearly, Showtime wanted to make it very clear that they are interested in keeping “Shameless” around for as long as humanly possible. How else do you explain the news that the show has already been renewed for a sixth season? The network made the news official this afternoon at TCA, with the sixth season most likely premiering […]
Tonight, the story on “Major Crimes” will be shutting down for a season, and it will hopefully be courtesy of a story that is worth all of the waiting: The return of Stroh. Anytime that you can bring something back from the days of “The Closer,” we do think that it is rather worthwhile. This […]
Well, here is some good news and bad news if you have been watching Fox’s “Red Band Society” from the beginning. The good news is that the final three episodes of the season (and most likely the series) are going to air in the relatively near future. The bad news? They are being given the […]
What happens to Kimberly Sherbach on “The Bachelor” tonight? This was obviously the big cliffhanger that was set up by ABC at the end of this past new episode, which of course led to questions regarding just what the show exactly had planned for her. Is there any real way that Chris Soules is going […]
When we first heard about the twist for “The Amazing Race 26,” which is going to feature couples who have never met racing against couples who have been together for some time, we were immediately flabbergasted. Why? Other than a cheap thrill for publicity, this seems ridiculous dumb, and at odds with a smart, upscale […]
There is some sad confirmation coming in today for longtime fans of “So You Think You Can Dance,” and it suggests that the Hot Tamale Train is no longer going to be leaving the station. As rumored, Mary Murphy is not returning for the 12th season of the dance competition show, which has to be […]
For those of you wondering how “Two and a Half Men” is going to end on CBS, you did not get many answers during the network’s winter TCA panel on Monday night. Instead, what you got instead from network programming head Nina Tassler came in two words: “Mystery sandwich.” That is how Chuck Lorre is […]
It’s not often that we spend so much time discussing a series that is not even on the air yet, but the reality here is that we’re talking about “Supergirl.” This is a huge DC Comics property coming to TV, and to go along with that, this is also one of the few female-fronted superhero […]
This has turned out to be a rather big week for “House of Cards.” First, Kevin Spacey managed to actually win his first Golden Globe award ever last night after eight kicks at the can. Then, Netflix released the official trailer for the latest season of the show, which starts streaming at the end of […]
