Round-Up...

Let me begin with ABC and for ages I could not say anything bad about this network apart from it seemed to be too nice to some of its shows. However moving BL to 10pm against two established hits like CSI & L&O is the worst idea of the entire season and makes CBS idea to air BB look good.

What the hell were they thinking and I do believe now that ABC are looking for a reason to cancel it and are trying to find shows to fill in the 10pm slot on Tuesday. However as WMC proved only BOSTON LEGAL can perform well on Tuesdays at 10pm and hopefully that will be enough to give the a 5th and final season.

Boston Legal did manage to take away audience from L&O and CSI NY who were down from normal viewers but its own core audience probably didn't know about the day slot move. ABC should be happy with the 10 million+ on tuesday nights and not tamper with what is not broken. Thank you for provoing that 99% of all TV exec's are halfwits.

Now that rant is over for NOW...FOX could keep Back to You but cancel Til Death which has given no reason why it should get a 3rd season. I don't have a clue why CBS thought airing The Price is Right would of been clever so chalk another one to the halfwits working on TV.

NBC have over-used DoNd and its has been shown and it should be concerned for Law & Order though while it might be a blip due to BL airing at the same time...I smell ER syndrome.

Wife Swap and Supernanny were the worst lead in's to give BL and are horrible shows but CW take the award for worst reality show of the season with Farmer Wants a Wife...

My god CW, your that stupid if we gave you lemons you would give us Diet Coke

I rather enjoyed that rant :P

Well ratings are relative you know. I'm not prepared to call them halfwits just yet, because I don't know what else they could have put in that slot, and I don't know what TPIR cost to produce. For all we know, even with the low ratings, that may have been a more profitable move for CBS.
 
ABC promo should be...

Next week watch us give BL anal at Wednesday at 10pm.
 
Farmer Wants a Wife isn't a hit??? :confused: :confused: :confused:

:lol:

CSI: Miami and CSI: NY were both down this week. :( I wonder if the trend will continue with CSI tonight.
