Unseen "Black Donnellys" Episodes Start to Surface

BuzzSugar — Tue, 17 Apr 2007 17:00:16 PDT

Fans of "The Black Donnellys," it's time to shake off that cancellation-induced coma and head over to NBC.com. The first two unaired episodes have made their way to NBC's video player, where other two filmed episodes should also wind up eventually.

I'm glad that "Donnellys" at least has a venue online to "broadcast" the rest of its episodes; plot lines can get tied up and fans don't have to hope for a DVD set to see what happens. But I do wonder how many people actually follow the shows online once they're off TV. I swore up and down that I'd finish the "Day Break" season once those episodes got posted on ABC's site, and I still haven't watched. What about you? Will you follow "Donnellys" online?

Spring Cleaning Sends Heap of TV Shows to the Dump

BuzzSugar — Tue, 03 Apr 2007 11:14:00 PDT

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 behind all of the decisions.

Here's a summary of the changes:

"The Wedding Bells" will air this Friday but is unlikely to be back after that.
"The Black Donnellys" will get bumped from its time slot on April 23 to make way for "The Real Wedding Crashers." It's unclear if NBC intends to pull "Donnellys" completely before the 23rd or air the remaining episodes at another time; it only will have aired eight of its 13 episodes by then.
"Six Degrees" is done, effective immediately, and - for the moment, at least - it will be replaced by episodes of "Wife Swap" (hey, at least it's not more "George Lopez").
"7th Heaven" is scheduled to air its finale on May 13.

There's some good news for fans of "October Road": The show was only going to get to air four of its six episodes, but it's doing well enough that ABC is planning to let it finish out the season on Thursdays at 10. It will take a one-week break April 12 to make way for the premiere of "Notes from the Underbelly," but then "Notes" will move to Wednesdays at 8:30.

The CW's "Hidden Palms," which sounds like "Desperate Housewives" crossed with "Dawson's Creek," also finally got a time slot, and it will start May 30 at 8 p.m.

Cougar Town Gets a Season Three Return Date!

Shannon Vestal — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 11:48:40 PST

Great news for fans of Jules and the rest of the cul-de-sac crew! Cougar Town has finally gotten a premiere date for season three: Feb. 14. The show still didn't have a return date during last week's TCA, when ABC president Paul Lee had said that the show was definitely coming back, but not until March. The Valentine's Day premiere is due to the cancellation of poorly received cross-dressing comedy Work It, which Cougar Town will be replacing. This means that the new slot is now Tuesdays at 8:30 p.m. instead of Wednesdays, so set your DVRs accordingly. Oh, and make a toast with your Big Carl.

Will You Miss the Martha Stewart Show?

Elka Karl — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 10:00:24 PST

I didn't see this one coming: the Hallmark Channel will stop airing the Martha Stewart Show this April, according to The New York Post. Apparently, high production costs and a diminishing audience factored in the decision to cancel the show.

My sister actually just attended a taping of the Martha Stewart Show. Summing up the experience, she told me, "While I'm not an avid viewer of the Martha Stewart Show, I appreciate her influence in re-popularizing traditional homemaking arts. It was both exciting and illuminating to see the great Martha in action as an audience member at the live taping of her show."

Ludacris Shows His Soul at CES

Kelly Schwarze — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 08:01:22 PST

What's the Consumer Electronics Show without a sprinkle of celebrity-endorsed gadgets? This year, hip-hop mogul Ludacris was on hand to introduce the latest additions to his Soul by Ludacris headphone line.

In 2012, the new finishes are all about shine. The SL300 noise-canceling headphones come in chrome gold, and the SL150 hi-def headphones are chrome silver. The SL100 model now has a white finish with gold accents. Soul's line of earbuds, the SL49 and SL99, also has new color options including a green and black combo, red and black, pink and white, and platinum.

We spoke to the musician-restaurateur-actor-entrepreneur for more on his life in the tech industry:

Style meets Soul - Ludacris said his life is "all about setting trends and pop culture," which is infused into the design of the Soul product line. He draws inspiration from a little bit of everything including fashion and cars.

Listening must-haves - Though it's like naming a favorite child, Ludacris keeps a pair of the SL99 earbuds in his pocket for whenever, wherever, and the SL300 when traveling for the noise-canceling experience.

Apple fan - He names the iPhone 4S and iPad as the nonheadphone gadgets he can't live without.

Pricing and availability for the new Soul headphone and earbud designs hasn't been announced, but the current line on sale ranges from $70 to $300. Check out photos of the Soul line in the gallery.

Sad News: The Martha Stewart Show Is No More!

YumSugar — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 10:20:15 PST

This morning broke news that the Martha Stewart Show will be no more. The program, which has been on the air since 2005, struggled to maintain the necessary viewership, even with a 2010 move to the Hallmark Channel and a more heavy celebrity focus (side note: how cute does Hugh Jackman look in the above photo?).

There is, however, some good news in all of this. The finale show promises to be an "a lavish Oprah-style send off," which is always fun for viewers. There are also reportedly talks of a Martha makeover show being pitched around, and we're not sure how we feel about that just yet. How are you feeling about this end of an era? Will you miss Martha or did you think it was time for the show to say goodbye?

Which Canceled HBO Show Will You Miss the Most?

Shannon Vestal — Tue, 20 Dec 2011 11:40:35 PST

HBO issued a small bit of good news for one of its shows today, and a big dose of bad news for three others: the cable network renewed Enlightened but canceled Hung, How to Make It in America and Bored to Death. All three series just wrapped up their most recent (and now final) seasons - Hung and Bored to Death finished out their third seasons while How to Make It in America just ended its second run. Even though Hung just earned a Golden Globe nomination for star Thomas Jane, the show and its fellow series on the chopping block all suffered from low ratings. HBO will have a slew of newbies in place soon enough, but until then, let's mourn for these dearly departed series. Tell us now: which of these canceled HBO shows will you miss most?

Which Endangered TV Show Would You Save?

Shannon Vestal — Sat, 26 Mar 2011 05:30:34 PDT

It's a nerve-wracking time of year for TV fans, as we wait to hear news on whether our beloved series have been renewed for another season, or that other scary fate: canceled. While we can breathe a sigh of relief for shows that were recently granted a new season (like most of the NBC comedies and Fringe), there are still a few shows that are on the bubble, meaning their survival is uncertain.

Among the series that haven't been renewed yet are my favorites Chuck, One Tree Hill, and Parenthood, and I'm getting nervous. It's looking bleak for certain shows, so I've listed out a few of the series that haven't been picked up yet so you can vote. Tell me which of these not-yet-renewed TV series you'd save if you could!
