Not Even Lifetime Can Save October Road, Men in Trees

Not Even Lifetime Can Save October Road, Men in Trees

These days, it seems like the first move for a network series that's in danger of being canceled is to find a cable network or other partner that's willing to take it on. See: Law & Order: Criminal Intent moving to USA from NBC last year, or Friday Night Lights trying to get a deal with DirecTV to bring it back. So I guess it's no surprise that ABC wanted to shop its low-rated Men in Trees Read more

Would You Give Someone a Puppy as a Gift?

In the "Deck the Howls" episode of October Road the sweet but overeager Janet gives her new boyfriend, Eddie, a deeply personal gift: a puppy. Understandably, the gesture shocks Eddie. Janet's intentions were to get him a puppy to replace his beloved dog, Rocket, but Eddie doesn't feel ready to commit to another animal. Of course, the joke is on both of them when they realize it's not a puppy at Read more

"24" Drops Like a Stone in TV Critics' Rankings

Twice a year, a bunch of TV critics submit their lists of the best and worst shows of the season so far, tracking which shows are on the rise and which are tanking. The results of the latest poll were just published in TV Week, and maybe the biggest surprise is "24"'s huge decline — from No. 4 on last summer's list of best shows to No. 2 on this summer's worst list. Critics seemed mostly to Read more

Elizabeth Berkeley: Showgirls star and adviser to America's youth? Why, that makes perfect sense, writes Best Week Ever. Pop Candy has a cryfest over a list of the saddest songs of all time. Cinematical tells us that Die Hard 4 will be rated PG-13, somehow. Giving Tim Gunn a female co-host for his new show sounds like the worst idea ever to PopWatch. Randomly, ScreenGrab rounds up the best of Read more

TV Tonight: ABC's Thursday Night Shows


Updated 04/19/07 4:30 PM · Posted by BuzzSugar · 17 comments

Considering the slump NBC's Thursday lineup is having these days, we can probably hand tonight's ratings crown to ABC right now. The last time all three of the network's Thursday shows were new was March 21, but it feels like even longer ago than that, so it's a good thing that at least two of the three appear to have great episodes lined up for the evening. (I've checked out of "October Road" Read more

Spring Cleaning Sends Heap of TV Shows to the Dump

Hope you weren't getting too attached to "The Wedding Bells" or "Six Degrees." They were two of the shows axed this week as the networks reshuffled their schedules. Among the other casualties: "The Black Donnellys," which might only get to air two more episodes, and "7th Heaven," which is being canceled (supposedly for real this time). According to Variety, the networks said low ratings were Read more

Rewind: This Week's Buzz

I challenge you to think of a new cast for the TV series "Bewitched" — and no Ferrells or Kidmans allowed. Which new movie would you most like to see? Vote in my poll! You can watch Lindsay Lohan in the new trailer for Georgia Rule, but you won't be seeing her in The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond. Most of the new TV shows, like October Road, Raines, and The Riches, leave much to be desired. Andy Read more
