Week of November 7 Sunday, November 07, 2010 Finales: Eastbound and Down (HBO) Wednesday, November 10, 2010 Returns: Meet the Browns

Holy heck... that's insanely self-centered. You do realize, don't you, that the entertainment industry doesn't exist solely to serve you - you do know that right? And that you don't get to unilaterally determine the standards and criteria that everyone else must therefore use - you do know...

New series our family is still watching (in order of consistency): No Ordinary Family, Event, Hawaii Five-0, Nikita.

Perhaps, or perhaps not. Either way, it has worked out well so far. So we can leave it at that.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, and we'll see how on-the-level you are about that. My wife and I felt that the characters were very well developed and we especially enjoyed how multidimensional some of the characters were, dealing with the conflicts between noble intentions and flaws...

It's a family name. :shrug: No doubt. Our family loves Glee, as well. Your question was phrased so sarcastically that it doesn't deserve a substantive reply. No one said you went wrong with your opinions. What I wrote speculated that perhaps some folks didn't like what the show was presenting...

Yes it was. Perhaps you simply didn't like what it made people think about.

Week of October 31 Sunday, October 31, 2010 Premiere: The Walking Dead (AMC)

Caprica was fine just the way it was. The problem is that people didn't watch, because too many of them just like shoot-'em-ups. That's pretty-much what the BSG prequel pilot they're working on recognizes. There evidently isn't a large enough audience for thoughtful and thought-provoking...

I loved last night's episode. The opening was mind-blowing. Chris Colfer as Riff-Raff was perfect. Naya Rivera and Heather Morris were excellent. Even Dianna Agron was good as a party-dancer. And Michele Lea as Janet was great as usual.

There is a difference between "reminding" and providing greater depth, and deeper insight into characters.

Don't confuse the issue with realities, Kevin. :)

I was referring to the lack of drama in the communication between the characters. I suppose they could add into the program some car chases and rifling of restaurants with automatic weaponry too, and that will be not-so-flat, but I don't really care for that kind of thing. I suppose this...

Strange.... I thought this week's episode was one of the first sub-standard episodes. Specifically, the scenes with Zoe and Tamara were especially flat - I'm not sure about Genevieve Buechner, but I know I've seen Alessandra Torresani act much better than that. And while the whole Amanda...

No, that does not have to be what they're thinking. You shouldn't impose your own paranoia onto their actions. They have myriad considerations to factor-in, and other issues may have driven their decision. Again, don't read anything into this change in the number of episodes. If they say...

Week of October 24 Tuesday, October 26, 2010 Premieres: In Treatment (HBO) Finales: Melissa & Joey (ABC Family)

Don't read anything into this change in the number of episodes.

You're mistaken when you assume that there cannot be a source of information like that. There have been numerous analyses of the issue, and a review of a sample of the most credible ones can absolutely draw a reasonable and referrable conclusion. As I indicated earlier, if such a review was...

Is that an assumption? or do you have a source for that? Because my impression was that Fox, ABC and NBC (i.e., all the major OTA networks without Sumner Redstone as a major player) were all pretty-much the same in that regard.

No. There are myriad other possibilities. That's the point. I mentioned a couple (it's a stylistic choice; it's less expensive than doing multiple takes). Your assumptions along these lines are strange. How did autotune do you wrong?

The two are not mutually exclusive. There are a number of reasons why you would use such solutions even with the very best singers there are. It is likely a matter of stylistic preference and/or cost considerations. It sounds to me that some folks have unjustifiable and extreme animosity...

What they're broadcasting is still Season One. If anything, what cable networks have learned is that the typical American viewer, with such a limited attention span, sometimes abandons shows if they go 33 weeks without a new episode (as would be the case if they ran the season straight...

Unfortunately, it's on up against too many other programs, so it doesn't get recorded in our home. Hopefully, they'll rerun the episodes the same weeks that the competing programs are running reruns, and we'll catch it then.

It sounded to me like a failure waiting to happen when I first heard about the series in January, when it was still going by the name "Rough Justice".

The lead actors are actually incredibly talented vocally - collectively that are the most vocally talented actors ever assembled for a television series. Not every member of the cast is a superlatively great singer, for sure, but the leads all are.
