Ratings Clack – A Dollhouse drop makes things interesting

(2/15 – 2/21) Ya know, it would be great if I could sit down to my beloved Model M keyboard and type about the fantastic ratings that Dollhouse was getting. 10 million viewers… a demo in the 4s… already picked up for the fall… Great, but probably not as interesting as the actual numbers are […]

Which of the Desperate Housewives do you identify with?

This week’s episode of Desperate Housewives was all about the money — the damage it can cause to friendships and the crazy things it makes desperate people do.

That said, devotion does not always equal satisfaction. The first half […]

Desperate Housewives – We need more Beau Bridges

(Season 5, Episode 13 – “The Best Thing That Ever Could Have Happened” ) We really don’t see enough of Beau Bridges. He needs a regular gig somewhere — more than Earl’s dad — and that was made clearly evident in tonight’s episode of Desperate Housewives, in which he played a handyman who keels over […]

Ratings Clack – Idol storms back, Patrick Jane doesn’t care

(1/12 – 1/18) Yes, of course, the big story this week was the return of American Idol. It didn’t disappoint, from a numbers perspective. Both installments easily won their nights. We all expected that though, right? The more interesting bit of the Idol story was the effect the show had, or didn’t have, on the […]
