Also in the rumour mill..

NBC looks to cancels all of it's shows...

People complained that Harry's Law's demo numbers sucked, sure they sucked, but they are still better than 90% of the shows on NBC.

Chuck actually looks good in a 2-day cursory evaluation next to the rest of NBC's lineup.

Mad Love is just dead. I hope that CBS doesn't like some of it's pilots. I want a second season of $#*! My Dad Says it did gangbusters next to the crap like this they moved $#*! to the side for.

 

[Jax]

Brothers & Sisters looks 100% Dead at this point, I just hope the writers planned for that especially since it was close to ending last season. ABC are so eager to find Cougar Town a solid slot but I think they should just accept the fact it will limp to 5 years and 100 episodes.

Next year I feel NBC should air Celebrity Apprentice in the 8-10 slot, giving a solid lead in for any 10pm show and only wasting the pointless 7-8pm slot.

FOX how long can American Dad/Cleveland go on for with such poor ratings. The Simpsons this season is showing its age though its going to make it to 25 years at least. Universal you really believe House has 2 seasons left in it , Just give it a shortern final 8th season and let the Docor retire. The Chicago Code was always on the wrong network and in the wrong timeslot, sadly FOX doesn't do 10pm crime shows.

CBS mondays have sprung one hell of a TITANIC leakage and I think its more than the spring causing issues 8-10. While I still feel RoE could get a short pick up to burn off next season for sydnication, Mad Love is clearly DEAD. Mike & Molly needs either Two & Half Men to return or TBBT to take the 9pm slot. HIMYM ratings in the fall will be VERY interesting to see, could next year be it?

Chuck is defintly about to be retired, the droppage is horrible though I suspect it will get a decent wrap up finale as the writers have planned well in the past. If it does I look forward to watching this show in the summer. NBC handling of Law & Order LA (as its now known as) is nothing short of laughable...

Long BREAK after only 8 episodes, retooling debut in FUCKING APRIL with Chuck and then The Event as lead in's COME ON NBC. If you were serious about the retool you would of brought it back in Mid March on The Biggest Loser night.

I used to enjoy Chuck but I just lost interest in it. I thought Harry's Law could fill the void left by Boston Legal but it is just dull with the only bright spot being Bates but she wasn't enough to keep me turning in.

Desperate Housewives will probably be renewed but it needs to be put out to pasture--talk about weak writing and wheel spinning.

Desperate Housewives has been picked up for an 8th season with rumors of an endate in 2013 being touted about.

-----------

With the news about a possible 2 year pickup and some of the CBS pilots I hear about for 2011-2012, I've downgraded CSI:NY to 50/50 and raised TGW to 50/50. CSI NY has settled in very well in the friday slot but I get the feeling a TGW pickup would cancel CSI NY.

Desperate Housewives will probably be renewed but it needs to be put out to pasture--talk about weak writing and wheel spinning.

It's been pretty much renewed for an 8th season and has the actresses in place for a 9th.
