----------------------------------------------

Bones has its own built in audience and FOX need to stop wasting post Idol slot. I would like to see Bonesm ove to mondays with its spinoff allowing the final season of House to air with Glee.

I would like Greys to air at 8pm next season to anchor the night with Charlie Angels at 9pm because I feel that night would have a similar female driven 18-49 audience. Wipeout will most likely take Fridays 8pm slot if its moved next season.

NBC need to move their comedy lineup to Tuesdays though they could maybe keep 1 hour comedy block on thursdays like 30 Rock which can just burn episodes off against Idol since next year will probably be the last...However you risk the entire night in that action.

Spring has taken its toll on TBBT but I just can't help think CBS really needs to move it back to 9pm Mondays especially if Two & Half Men does not return. Monday night is failing for CBS at the moment under their standards but TBBT could anchor at 8pm mondays even if Two & Half Men return but what to do with thursdays???

2 Hour comedy block maybe but I doubt it so move The Mentalist to 10pm and CSI to Fridays if NY is canned otherwise 10pm for CSI.

I think Nikita might be a keeper and Hellcats is dead...CW should only roll 3 new shows in the fall.

90210
GG
OTH
ANTM
Nikita
TVD
SPN

I am gonna go ahead and say TSC, Awakening & Hart Of Dixie will get picked up.

 

[Temis the Vorta]

Awakening may not make it.

 

[Jetfire]

What else are they going to put with SPN? Nikita? Heavenly? Copper & Stone? None of those shows fit...and they will not put The Secret Circle on Fri @ 8pm...it will be paired with TVD.

Ok I take this back because they did pair it with Smallville...I do think Heavenly is too light...Nikita might work...really don't see a new show other than Awakening being paired with SPN. IMO.

will vd be picked up for a third season? all so it looks like tbbt kicked ass agin.

 

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

will vd be picked up for a third season?

It's already been renewed for a third season.

will vd be picked up for a third season?

It's already been renewed for a third season.

TVD will probably go long as Supernatural assuming the CW stays afloat.

I don't know how much more I can take of Idol. Between JHo's HUGE ego, her terrible outfits & make-up combined with her CONSTANT interrupting of Randy because he DARES to disagree with the queen bee, it's become almost unbearable. I'd like to know who the HELL thought she should judge anyone with her "singing" as Exhibit A in my argument. Randy was in the music biz long before anyone had even heard of her, so she needs to step off. Steven Tyler is mildly annoying but at least I can respect him musically and he is fairly entertaining.

I miss Simon and Paula. Simon was at least honest and I trusted his criticism 99% of the time. Paula was fun because you never knew which Paula you were gonna get from week to week; drunk Paula, high Paula, happy Paula, angry Paula.

 

[timothy]

very cool thanks jaxs.

FRIDAY NIGHT

FOX

Kitchen Nightmares - 3.65 million & 1.6/6

Fringe - 3.30 million & 1.2/4

CBS

Flashpoint - 6.89 million & 1.1/4

CSI: NY - 9.31 million & 1.5/5

Blue Bloods - 10.12 million & 1.5/4

ABC

Shark Tank - 4.48 million & 1.2/5

Primetime: What Would You Do? - 4.04 million & 1.2/4

20/20 - 6.09 million & 1.7/5

NBC

Friday Night Lights - 2.72 million & 0.8/3

Dateline (2 hour) - 5.88 million & 1.6/5

CW

Smallville - 2.00 million & 0.8/3

Supernatural - 2.08 million & 0.9/3

--------------------------------------

How FRINGE has stayed alive is beyond me though it could go up in the finals I guess, but I do predict a stronger boost in the fall. Kitchen Nightmares will fall in the finals because 1.6 from that viewer total even for KN seems a little too skewed.

TGW rumored 2 year pickup and the fact the original CSI faces a move to friday night with falling ratings, NY looks dead after next week.

I would like to see Smallville air its 2 hour finale not on fridays but I doubt it will happen at this stage. Supernatural on Fridays 8pm next fall will no doubt give it and Fringe a mini boost since they share similar audiences.

30 rock and parks and recreation seem to be kicking but. and smallville ruled this week. now do these numbers all so include dvr recordings?

 

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

now do these numbers all so include dvr recordings?

No, it doesn't include DVR numbers.
