Latest episode clacks for this show:
Last week we were again reminded that a whole lot of people really like ‘Jersey Shore’. The show was easily the big winner for the week. On the broadcast networks, ‘The Bachelorette’ finale was good news for ABC.
While things were mostly quiet on the broadcast front, the big premieres continued on cable. Last week saw the return of ‘Entourage’ on HBO, and ‘Project Runway’ on Lifetime.
With a by-the-numbers week on the broadcast networks, the big stories were on cable, where the Women’s World Cup did very well and the premiere of ‘Breaking Bad’ brought very good numbers for AMC.
The big surprise on the networks came from the numbers for ABC’s Jaycee Dugard special, which easily outscored the MLB All-Star Game. Over on cable, another huge helping of summer premieres, including ‘Curb’, ‘Alphas’, ‘Warehouse 13′, ‘Eureka’, and ‘The Closer’.
The holiday weekend meant a slow week, even by summer standards. The interesting stories come from how well ‘Falling Skies’ is holding up, and the possibility that ‘Rookie Blue’ has already earned a third season.
With lots of balls in the air, both personally and professionally, Dr. Dani Santino tries to keep everything on a manageable plain. Yeah, there’s a little mess but it’s mostly a smooth act.
The big story for the week was the return of ‘True Blood’ on HBO, which remains the biggest hit the network has where ratings are concerned. On the broadcast networks, NBC unscripted continues to hold the lead.
