Ratings Clack – An alternative to Nielsen?

The big news in ratings this week wasn’t another series high for True Blood, the further decline of Defying Gravity, or even the return of Millionaire. Instead, it was the announcement that several big media and advertising companies are joining forces to create an alternative to Nielsen. My kneejerk reaction? The announcement is full of […]

The Philanthropist – It’s up to us

The big season (or is it series?) finale of The Philanthropist left us all with a challenge: what’s our great idea for helping the world? That’s the message I got from that last shot, the camera pulled in tight behind the guy holding up his hand… that’s us. What’s our great idea? Well, hopefully it will […]

The Philanthropist reads Dostoevsky

I’ve never read the Dostoevsky novel to which Teddy Rist (James Purefoy) referred in this week’s episode, but if “The Double” is as dense as “Crime and Punishment” (been there), or “The Brothers Karamazov” (done that), it’ll have to wait. What I do know, however, is that Dean didn’t quite fit the bill of doppelganger. […]

Ratings Clack – Summer TV is halfway over!

It’s that time of the year where it becomes painfully obvious just how lacking the summer television schedule is.  Hopefully, you’re getting some nice weather in the exchange. The good news is that the summer television season is now half over. We can now start counting down the weeks until the fall premieres. As for […]
