So, boys and girls, what has “Anna Howard Shaw Day” taught us? Being single on Valentine’s Day sucks. While this is not a novel premise for a sitcom (or 30 Rock for that matter), the episode gave it a fresh spin and was one of the funniest episodes of the season.
The episode starts with Liz [...]

But the new Fall season also means plenty of new shows that probably won’t last a season. With that in mind, a [...]

Comedy Central and WGN have gotten the cable network rights to 30 Rock. They’ll start airing repeats of the show in 2011, by which time the show will have its 100th episode. The news going around is that 30 Rock got $50,000 more per episode in its syndication deal than The Office got two [...]

NBC had already announced that The Jay Leno Show would premiere a week before the official start of the 2009-10 TV season. The network will take its time rolling out the rest of the fall schedule, though.
Leno’s prime-time show will premiere Monday, Sept. 14 and run every weeknight at 10 ET. Two other nights of [...]

Several individual favorites, one underdog movie and broadcast TV all enjoyed good nights at the Screen Actors Guild Awards Sunday.
Slumdog Millionaire won the award for best ensemble in a motion picture, continuing its recent string of awards success (the movie also won the Producers Guild of America honor for best picture over the weekend). The [...]

NBC’s schedule will be smaller next season, but there will still be room for The Office, 30 Rock and The Biggest Loser in the post- Jay Leno world.
The network announced Thursday (Jan. 15) at the TCA press tour that it’s picking up all three shows for the 2009-10 season. None of the orders is [...]

Oh man, do Thursdays ever rule now.
Rumors are swirling about the fate of Zach Braff next season, as it’s now being reported that he’s being offered a pretty gigantic amount of money to do another season of Scrubs instead of his mopey indy movies (hey, Zach, BE FUNNY!), and hopefully if he comes back for [...]

First up, Scrubs, as JD’s life gets worse and worse (and yet funnier and funnier) as he now has to mention his “poo fainting” at every opportunity, as well as the scooter DUI. Loved that the big payoff for asking out the other doctor was a simple “No,” with no elaboration on her part. [...]

I was expecting very little from 2006’s crop of new shows. And it’s beginning to look like my low expectations will be met.
More than any other network, let me be the first to credit Fox – for another season of new garbage. Last year, it was The War at Home, Reunion and Head [...]
