  1. Warehouse 13 Review: Fight or Flight

    kay,

    Yes there was an episode last week, the noir piece, but, sadly, scheduling issues arose that didn't give us a chance to review it.
  2. ABC Sets 2013-2014 Schedule, Includes Once Upon a Time Spinoff

    What an absolute mess.
  3. NBC Releases 2013-2014 Schedule, Moves Revolution, Parenthood and Chicago Fire

    These replies got lost in the internet ether:

    Carissa,
    Chicago PD was picked up. NBC just hasn't scheduled it yet. I'm guessing it'll go to the Wednesday at 10 if Ironside crashes and burns.

    Guest112, Arrow rates well for the CW, but the CW doesn't rate well against the other guys. It won't provide any real competition for Revolution, so if Revolution's audience follows it it will be fine.
  4. NBC Releases 2013-2014 Schedule, Moves Revolution, Parenthood and Chicago Fire

    Jay and JasonR,
    Parenthood at Thursdays at 10 is probably the best place for the show. Every. single. show. since ER has crashed and burned there. Parenthood is incredibly stable, and if it can pull around the same numbers it did on Tuesdays. It'll be absolutely golden.

    If there's more interest I'll for sure write up an armchair schedule analysis when all the schedules are released.

    *puts on scheduling hat*

    @joyeful - Hannibal is still being decided upon. Grimm was sent to Tuesdays this season to shore up May sweeps after the spectacular failure of Ready for Love; Community is merely a known quantity with a cult fanbase, and NBC is going to use it to plug the unavoidable failures.

    @Carissa,
    Hey girl
  6. Grimm Review: Close Encounters of the Wesen Kind

    @Virg, The show has already been renewed. :)
  7. Grimm Review: One Memory At A Time

    @joyeful - They know it's a solid performer, and Ready For Love crashed and burned even following The Voice. I think they want to give the show some exposure, but they also want to shore up and The Voice is the perfect show to do so. I'm of the opinion they should've kept the show where it is (since there's only four episodes left), but maybe we'll see a nice boost to Grimm thanks to The Voice. No matter what happens, I'm confident Grimm will get renewed and be back on Fridays next season.

    Ultimately, this move is probably just to get Ready For Love off the schedule so it's not dragging them down.
  8. Grimm Review: One Memory At A Time

    If you were one of the unlucky ones who missed the episode (which sounds like most of the country :( ) NBC will be repeating it this Friday before Grimm heads to Tuesdays for the rest of the season.
  9. Grimm Review: One Memory At A Time

    It must depend on the timezone. It aired for me.
  10. Revolution Review: Why The Lights Turned Off

    Maybe the writers are just fans of Jake 2.0.
  11. The CW to Renew All Current Programming?

    Hart of Dixie is most likely to come back since its ratings are highest among The CW's bubble shows, and one of the reasons why it was renewed last season was because of it did very well for The CW in streaming terms. So this report is certainly plausible.

    Nikita is likely to come back just because its so close to syndication for Warner Bros.
  12. Army Wives Review: Love and The Battlefield

    Latasha is freaking awesome on this show.
  13. Hannibal Review: A Haunting Premiere

    Well, that's embarrassing. Thanks for pointing out my incorrect form, WatchesTooMuch. It's fixed now.
  14. TV Ratings Report: Hungry for Hannibal?

    Well, that's way better than Do No Harm's dismal premiere.
  15. Grimm Review: Curiosity

    I'm with you on Renard Dreamrose, he was a total badass dispatching of the bomb and the killer.
  16. Veronica Mars Movie: Kickstarter Campaign Launched!

    Take my money Veronica Mars!
  17. Pretty Little Liars Round Table: "Out of Sight, Out of Mind"

    Anna,

    You are my new favorite person.
  18. Deception Review: Along Came Haverstock

    lucy,

    Please link to one of my reviews where I have said I couldn't care less about Mia's story because I haven't. I've talked about the pacing of Mia's paternity in the pilot, and I've noted that her story after the reveal was mostly of avoidance and processing - something I couldn't blame her for.

    Second, my comment about Revenge is to emphasize the problem with Joanna as a main character right now, and to bring to light the fact that for a being one of the main characters Joanna is doing absolutely nothing that is noteworthy or rootable. I admitted this show is not Revenge back in my review of the pilot, and got the "comparisons" out of the way right then and there.

    You can disagree with my review, but please don't make things up to support your comments. That is the true meaning of bias.
  19. Chicago Fire Review: A License for Liquor

    Thanks for pointing out the mistake. It's been fixed!

    As for Renee, I thought Eric said she got into drugs. Did I imagine things?
  20. Deception Review: Relationships Redefined

    Awesome, thanks for letting me know everyone. In the advance copy I was sent it just looked like Ben jumped in front of bus.
  21. TV Ratings Report: 30 Rock Out on High Note

    Do No Harm's premiere is the lowest rated ever among the four broadcasters - ABC, NBC, FOX, and CBS. That's certainly setting a very different bar.
  22. Gossip Girl Review: The Final Chapter

    I haven't watched Gossip Girl since midway through Season 3, but I tuned in to the final out of respect for the show before it went downhill for me. Nevetheless, I'm going to jump in on the Gossip Girl reveal: I don't understand the motive the writers had for making Dan Gossip Girl. It's just full of plot holes, Dan has asked for help from Gossip Girl, he's gotten tips from...himself, Dan being surprised about Nate and Serena in the S2 premiere even though GG had the scoop on them, etc. I'm all for a clever ruse, but this seems tacked on at the last minute - not something that has been in the cards since Day 1. No matter what the show says.
  23. Chicago Fire Review: Finding a Balance

    Hannah,

    I was going to make a note of it in my review, but I became sidetracked as I wrote about Kelly. I think he was visiting his father.
  24. NBC Announces Do No Harm Premiere Date, Grimm Return Date

    Ugh, one of the perils of starting in August. I'll try to find something to keep us occupied Grimm-sters.
  25. Revolution Review: Tom the Steam Engine

    The sole reason I didn't have a fit over Kim Raver being so put together is because I see her character as someone with a much higher social status and wealth than most of the population around her. In this post-Blackout world her husband is (or seems to be) a very high ranking official in the militia, and that affords her money and power. So of course she's going to look far, far better than everyone else - she has the means and influence to do so.
