TV Ratings Report: True Blood and The Newsroom Finish Strong
Already renewed for next summer, both True Blood and The Newsroom finished their fifth and first seasons respectfully strong last night.
The final episode under the watch of Alan Ball, in which viewers were introduced to BiLilith, garnered five million viewers at 9 p.m., up a tad from last Sunday's 4.93 million and scarcely below the 5.05 million who watched the True Blood Season 4 finale.
The Newsroom season finale, meanwhile, was as hot and cold as that Aaron Sorkin-penned drama has been all year, but it was viewed by 2.3 million households, a 17% increase over the previous installment and a series high.

I as well as my friends have been digesting the excellent information and facts from the blog and so unexpectedly came up with an awful suspicion I had not expressed respect to the website owner for those tips. The ladies were so very interested to study them and have absolutely been making the most of those things. Appreciation for actually being indeed kind and then for picking out these kinds of excellent guides most people are really desirous to know about. Our own sincere apologies for not expressing gratitude to you sooner. home http://cfzgh.org/Review.asp?NewsID=109

What's not to like about The Newsroom? Aaron Sorkin knows how to keep things going while staying current AND funny. Great cast of characters who all handle his dialogue well and know how to steal a scene while doing excellent work in an ensemble cast where everyone counts! More, please?
