Ratings Clack – Crazy schedules and a Thursday where everyone loses

Last week was a bit of an odd one for programming as the networks went a bit experimental. Over at FOX, Bones tried its third night in a week. On ABC, The Unusuals took over for Cupid and someone gave the OK for another Lost clip show.  CBS continued the shuffling of their procedurals by […]

Desperate Housewives – Edie’s still a bitch

So, we know for sure now that Edit Britt is dead. No surprise there. But you know how, when someone dies, people automatically become better than when the person was alive? I think the housewives experienced some of that in this week’s episode. Yeah, Edie probably had her moments, but let’s face it, she was […]

Ratings Clack – Heroes and Dollhouse hit new lows

(3/22 – 3/38) It was another screwy week of ratings. The combination of the Obama address and the NCAA tournament made for all kinds of scheduling nuttery.

Sometimes I think Desperate Housewives portrays people accurately, with Tom and Lynette getting the “most like a real couple” award (except for last week’s scene at Bree and Orson’s dinner table). Then there are other times when the show sinks to cartoonish antics that don’t resemble real life at all. In this week’s episode, Susan […]

Ratings Clack – Everybody loves Melissa Rycroft…

… and hates Marco White, apparently. It was a strange week on television. The calendar keeps insisting we are in a sweeps period, but the networks are dropping repeats all over the schedule. Even Lost, which ABC promised would run uninterrupted, went the repeat route. There were still some big events. As usual, Idol dominated, […]

Desperate Housewives – Are Lynette and Tom like a normal couple?

Out of all the couples on Desperate Housewives, Lynette and Tom have always seemed like the most normal couple. And by normal, I mean like the rest of us out here in the real world. They fight, they make up, they have real emotions, and they’re flawed and scarred just like the rest of us. […]
