I haven’t dumped Invasion from series recording yet. Yeah, I’m lame. I know.
I want to watch Everybody Hates Chris but damn if I don’t keep forgetting about it.
Commander in Chief started with an interesting premise but has quickly slid into the “problem solved within 44 minutes” scenario. And the writing is dodgy. And not half as sharp or lyrical or even smart as The West Wing on its worse day.
The E Ring…was renewed…what in fuck?!
Kitchen Confidential made me laugh but of course it didn’t get a chance.
And as many other sites have already noted, the mad genius that is/was Arrested Development finally got the Fox handshake farewell. Which proves without a doubt that Fox really is run by monkeys of moderate intelligence with damaged smart-brain hats.
(UPDATE: TVFan works at UPN and has informed me that Love, Inc got a full season renewal. I made the appropriate changes in italics in the blockquote.)
