Another week of ups and downs brings good news for some (’30 Rock Live’, ‘Defenders’, ‘Smallville’), and bad news for others (‘The Event’, ‘Running Wilde’). Plus, how did a Monday ‘iCarly’ stack up against the entire NBC schedule?
‘Caprica’ returned last week, and the results leave us questioning how long the show can remain a part of the new Syfy. Over on the networks, there are still a few new shows (‘The Event’, ‘The Defenders’, ‘Detroit 187′) looking to find their levels.
It’s only week two and already the cancellation act has been swung. Twice. In happier news, ‘Glee’ managed to ride the popularity of Britney, or Brittany, to even better numbers than the premiere. Also, good grief, a lot of people watch ‘Jersey Shore’.
Lots of new sets this week, including ‘Flight of the Conchords’, ‘Lost’, ‘NCIS’, ‘The Simpsons’, ‘Gossip Girl’, ‘Pawn Stars’, ‘90210’, and ‘Ben 10′. Also look for ‘Sandbaggers’, ‘Patty Duke’, and ‘Ax Men’.
It’s time once again to take a look at what the fall is shaping up to look like with the returns and premieres of our favorite shows on TV. We’ll update it regularly, along with the subscribable calendar.
The 2009-2010 television season comes to a close, marked by series finales from ‘Lost’, ’24’, and ‘Law & Order’, as well as Simon’s final appearance on ‘Idol’.
With the 2009-2010 TV season quickly coming to a close, a number of the big network shows are starting to fire off their big finales. That meant nice numbers for things like ‘House’ and ‘Grey’s,’ but I’m most impressed with the longevity of ‘Survivor.’
