Déjà vu.

I managed to finish season 1. Tried the first episode of season 2 and just couldn't do it anymore. I think the pilot showed promise, but then it all went to hell.

This was me exactly. The Keystone cops act got tiring. At what point do you not trust random policeman assigned to you? Or never having backup available?

Beginning Jan. 1, 2015, HBO will no longer be distributing or confirming LIVE+SD viewership for our programming.

HBO subscribers have available to them an array of entry points to watch our programming – HBO linear feeds, DVR, HBO On Demand and HBO GO –and a single airing is no longer representative of an HBO show’s true audience size. Today, it is common for final gross-audience figures to grow anywhere from five to ten times viewership after an initial airing.

With this in mind, starting in 2015, HBO viewership figures will first be made available by us approximately two weeks after a program’s premiere, compiling LIVE+7 Nielsen and preliminary HBO On Demand and HBO GO data.

I guess they want to only share the larger number which most people never pay attention to because it's already "old" by the time it's out.

Well, since they don't have advertisers, all of those numbers are just as important to their bottom line. It makes sense.

Also, nope, ABC. This is a promising sitcom. Why.

Just saw the Fresh Off The Boat tv spot. ABC gives literally no fucks when it comes to naming their comedies. I mean, I am enjoying Blackish, but it's still a terrible name for a show.

Yeah, but wasn't FOB named after the book? That, and the attitude, are way better than "Far East Orlando".

I'm kinda upset that ABC is airing FOB on Tuesdays. I understand that there is no other place to put it but geez, really? Hopefully it'll get some exposure for airing repeats on Wednesdays.

I can understand what they're going for in terms of trying to make a quick point about the "Asian American" experience, but I really am skeptical that this will have any kind of life after its first episodes. Somehow Sullivan and Son keeps on trucking though. I'm sure TBS has much lower standards.

Oh, Canadians, I had no idea there was a Corner Gas reunion movie until it popped out. What a random and nice surprise... I haven't really thought of the show since it stopped airing.

Sullivan and Son got cancelled about a month ago.

It's even in theaters for some unknown freaking reason up here.. I'll never understand my fellow countrymen's obsession with that show.

It's like Americans and big bang theory. Why?

Oh really? Well shit. Hawaii 5-0 is basically the only sort of Asian-focused show that has survived then. :p

I think it's one of those things where it's a charming Canadian show and we're a people desperate for a cultural identity. That said, I enjoy it for what it is - a quirky character comedy.

I didnt no...

...I do now tho :p

Why you gotta be like that, man? :(

White Collar's ending was pretty decent. I gotta say they got me with
Neal's death
. Totally didn't expect the twist that turned into a good end. Bravo Matt and Tim on that ending.

Edit: (spoilers) White Collars original ending just isn't as amazing as this one, it turns out.

Mr. Robot picked up to series. Actually looking forward to it!

http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/20...Twitter&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitter

MR. ROBOT is a contemporary and culturally resonant drama about a young programmer, Elliot (Malek), who suffers from a debilitating anti-social disorder and decides that he can only connect to people by hacking them. He wields his skills as a weapon to protect the people that he cares about. Elliot will find himself in the intersection between a cybersecurity firm he works for and the underworld organizations that are recruiting him to bring down corporate America. Slater stars in the title role of Mr. Robot, a mysterious anarchist who recruits Elliot into an underground hacker group.

The latest issue of Entertainment Weekly has a back cover ad for Galavant: "a 4 week comedy extravaganza". ... Has Galavant always supposed to just run for 4 weeks?

Yes. That's how ABC is advertising it in the commercials as well.

Knew they were doubling up on episodes, since it's in OUAT's time slot, but I didn't realize that the order was only for 8 episodes. But then, Agent Carter is too.

Super excited for Galavant which means it will probably do poorly in ratings. Would be nice if it's successful and gets the additional episodes as planned.
 
Well White Collar ended yesterday. And seeing as how the Covert Affairs season finale was made as a series finale, I guess that's probably coming to an end too. I have to admit, I'm going to miss the blue sky shows they've seemingly given up on.
