Upfronts Update: CBS Axes Old Christine and Five More

BuzzSugar — Tue, 18 May 2010 11:00:21 PDT

Here's a few more shows to move to the cancellation list. Ahead of its big schedule announcement at tomorrow's upfronts, CBS has pulled the plug on six shows: say goodbye to The New Adventures of Old Christine, The Ghost Whisperer, Accidentally on Purpose, Miami Medical, Gary Unmarried, and Cold Case. Personally, I'm going to miss Accidentally on Purpose the most, but are you sad about any of these shows?

Stop One Show: The Results!

BuzzSugar — Mon, 30 Apr 2007 09:02:06 PDT

Three weeks ago, I launched BuzzSugar's first Stop One Show poll, which gave all of you a chance to vote on which show you'd most like to kick off the air to make room for something better. After more than 1,600 votes, it doesn't look like anything will catch up to the current leader. So I'm calling an end to the poll and declaring a winner - er, loser? - of the 2007 Stop One Show contest: "CSI: Miami"!

The silliest of all the "CSI" shows pulled ahead late in the second week of the poll and never looked back. I'm not sure what sparked the sudden hatred of Horatio Caine and his crew, but whatever the reason, this dubious honor is certainly well-deserved.

"CSI: Miami" wasn't a sure winner this whole time, though. "Ghost Whisperer" sprung out to an early lead and held it until "The War at Home" haters arrived. "War" stayed in front for a while, until "CSI: Miami" surged ahead. Several other shows were never far behind, though, so to read more about the results and watch a truly amazing clip from our "winner,"

ABC's "George Lopez" was never far out of the lead, but people didn't hate it quite enough; it finished third, barely ahead of "Ghost Whisperer." "ER" had a surprising charge, finishing fifth, with a huge gap between it and the sixth-place finisher, "American Dad." The least-hated show on my list? "Law & Order," followed by "Medium" and "My Name is Earl."

About that list. Someone pointed out to me that I didn't mention any CW shows. I have to admit that's not because I love all CW programming so much that I think it should stay on the air; it's because I don't watch enough of the shows to have a sense of which are the worst. Interestingly, there were a couple of write-in votes for "Veronica Mars" - one of the winners of the actual Save One Show poll.

A lot of people also suggested that I should have included reality shows, because even the worst show on my list is better than another terrible reality program. While I agree, I stuck to scripted shows because networks aren't choosing between renewing, say, "Survivor" and "How I Met Your Mother." Reality shows are cheap, and NBC, in particular, has said it plans to produce more of them to save money. So the choice is really between shows like "Medium" and "Crossing Jordan" and "Law & Order" and "Friday Night Lights" - at least one of which NBC is likely to cancel before fall.

While this poll was all in good fun, I did promise to write about the winner with the scorn and vitriol it deserves. So, "CSI: Miami," I've got my eye on you. To start, here's a wonderful - if borderline unwatchable - video of David Caruso's "greatest" "hits" (thanks to GiggleSugar for the tip). Enjoy!

True Blood Bites: "Let's Get Out of Here"

Rose Curiel — Mon, 22 Aug 2011 07:54:44 PDT

We see an interesting side to a lot of characters in this week's episode of True Blood. Lafayette (as inhabited by the spirit Mavis) spends most of the episode squeezing in the word "bébé" into every sentence of dialogue, and Debbie and Antonia begin to spin out of control.

Consumed by her need to obliterate vampires, Antonia begins to alienate her coven and amps up her efforts in her war against bloodsuckers with a plan that ends in an intense cliff-hanger. I'm eager to hear how you guys think the story might develop, so let's break down this week's episode first when you

Most likely she-wolf to have a nervous breakdown: A paranoid Debbie pays Sookie a jittery, V-fueled visit, assuring a suspicious Sookie that she's not crazy - which, of course, only makes her seem crazier - and offering her assistance in finding Eric. I couldn't help but feel sorry for Debbie when she looks so surprised that Sookie reveals that she trusts her, and that Alcide really does love her. Nevertheless, I quickly went back to disliking her when she tries to ditch Sookie as they flee Antonia’s headquarters. Was Debbie only freaking out over almost being called out by the witch, or did she intend to betray Sookie all along? Either way, she's clearly bad news.
Worst way to make amends: Are you all as annoyed by Tommy as I am? Sure, it's kind of sweet that he tries to face Sam's battle with Marcus, but as usual, Tommy only ends up making things worse. He shifts into Sam and attempts to convince the big bad wolf that Tommy - not Sam - slept with his former wife, Luna, so that the pack will go after him instead of Sam. However, in typical Tommy fashion, he's belligerent and has to get under Marcus's skin, which means he ends up getting beaten unconscious. Tommy's mistakes are getting ridiculous at this point. Will this shifty shifter ever learn?
Weirdest Ghost Whisperer moment: Jesus comes to his boyfriend's rescue, exorcising Mavis's spirit from Lafayette's body. Jesus explains to Mavis that something she never made peace with is causing her spirit to linger in the world of the living, but she has more trouble believing she's in a male body until she hilariously goes poking around her new form. I half-expected Jennifer Love Hewitt to pop up in the scene in which Jesus expels Mavis's spirit from Lafayette's body. I found the lighting effects cheesy and couldn't help but wonder why the now-closed story line had been included at all. Will we see Mavis again or was this just a weird, self-contained side story?
Most racy dream: Fueled by a fresh supply of Bill's blood, Sookie finds herself dreaming about the king of Louisiana and Eric simultaneously. Her subconscious clues her into the fact that she still has feelings - both sexual and emotional - for each vampire, and she comes to the conclusion that she wants them both. It's nice to see Sookie take control of her love life in such a firm way, albeit in dream form, but it's only a matter of time before she'll need to make a choice in the real world.
Best recurring appearance of Taylor Swift's CD: In a bitter ex-boyfriend move, Hoyt decides to pack up all of Jessica's belongings in a box marked "For you, monster," including a Taylor Swift album. Later, Jason comes across the same Taylor Swift album, and Hoyt has him deliver it along with the other items to Jessica. Hoyt basically sends Jason into Jessica's arms, as the two end up getting busy in the bed of Jason's pickup truck, while Swift's "Haunted" plays in the background. With Hoyt acting like such a jerk, I was pretty excited to see the couple get together, but I'm not looking forward to the fallout between Jason and his best friend.
Bossiest witch: Antonia really has to work on her people skills, as all but one member of her coven - the friendless Roy - aren't responding well to her supercontrolling approach to leading the group. She flips out when her witches refuse to join hands and then casts a spell that keeps her coven members trapped against their will. Looks like Antonia doesn't know how to interact well with people when she isn't controlling them via a spell, as she is Eric (aka the blond one), who is in the midst of carrying out her assassination plot toward the end of the episode. Sookie warns Bill to run, but chaos has already broken out at the Festival of Tolerance by the time she reaches him.

How do you think the episode's cliff-hanger will play out? We know Eric is older and stronger than Bill, so how does the king stand a chance? Perhaps Sookie's fairy powers will come into play? Tell me what you think in the comments section below!

Jennifer Love Hewitt Wraps Up 2010 With Her Bikini and Her Boyfriend in Hawaii

Lindsay Miller — Mon, 03 Jan 2011 14:03:00 PST

Jennifer Love Hewitt, clad in a bright blue bikini top, was one of the many stars who enjoyed a warm-weather holiday in Hawaii last week. The actress celebrated New Year's Eve on an island with her boyfriend, Alex Beh, and her mom, Pat. This was a year of big changes for Jennifer. Her series, The Ghost Whisperer, was canceled, and she also broke up with her fiancé Jamie Kennedy in March. She spent a few months as a single lady, but it didn't take long before Jennifer started seeing Alex.
