Latest episode clacks for this show:
The big story this week was the return of ‘Dancing With The Stars’. The show was just a whisker away from ‘Idol’ in total viewers, and propelled ‘Castle’ to a big win against ‘CSI: Miami’. Over on cable, everybody loves Discovery’s ‘Life’.
‘HIMYM’ is a show that takes some pretty big swings sometimes, and sometimes, the show strikes out. Tonight was a good example of a strike-out.
The Academy Awards was the big winner for the week, managing to top the ‘Idol’ juggernaut. ‘Idol’ was still huge for FOX, while CBS had great showings from ‘2 ½ Men’, ‘Big Bang’, and ‘NCIS’. ‘SVU”s return to 10 PM was a bright spot for NBC.
“If you are anywhere between 21 and 53 … you will watch this series and feel like a big fat pussy.” – Tom Hanks, on his upcoming HBO miniseries, ‘The Pacific’
The strength of tonight’s episode of ‘How I Met Your Mother’ lies in the callbacks to former moments of glory … but um … Mike the cameraman … Robin and her penchant for firearms. The rest was less than awesome.
With the Olympics out of the way, our TV schedules were once again filled with new episodes. ‘American Idol,’ as usual, clobbered everyone. The week also brought three premieres for NBC and the first new ‘Southland’ episodes on TNT.
“I had the lowest of expectations, and I’m still disappointed.” – Axl Heck
