Congratulations NBC!


Congratulations NBC for cancelling two great shows for this idiotic MTV-esque piece of *beep* You really have your stuff together don't you? And must I mention how awesome it was of you to move Medium to Wednesday nights at 10pm to compete with one of the greatest shows in Television? You are so awesome, it's incredible. You deserve a goddamn award.

This is an important public service announcement.

the fact that they had bad ratings is the only reason why they canned it. I watched andy barker p.i. becuase scrubs wasn't back yet and the black donolleys because it's was just ok.

NBC is making more reality shows because it is much cheaper to produce than scripted shows. There was an article about this a few months ago in Entertainment Weekly. Basically, they're making more reality shows because it saves the network money. Unfortunately, since most of these reality shows are just stupid, it makes the network look weaker. Networks like to give quality programming, but when they're trying to save money, it shows.

I would rather the networks give us fewer quality programs than more crappy programs. Fox only shows two shows a night instead of three and a lot of their shows seem to do better than the other networks. (Prison Break, 24, House, etc...) I'd rather see NBC do this and not put this junk on to save money.

Medium was showing at 10:00 on Wednesday for over a half a season befor ABC moved Lost to that time slot. Medium beat "The Nine" and whatever else ABC put in that timeslot.

NBC is looking like it did in the 70s. I think the only thing they have in the Top 20 is "Deal or No Deal". Their game shows suck, except for "1 vs. 100", their reality shows haven't made any waves, except for maybe "The Apprentice", and even that's fallen off. The only thing worth watching is their Thursday night sitcoms and "1 vs. 100".

What's really annoying is that we have to sit through a million and a half promos for their crappy shows that get canceled after three weeks (remember that celebrity cooking show?).

Oh and they're about to lose "Passions", so that leaves them with "Days of Our Lives" and seventeen hours of "The Today Show". They've really fallen off now that "Friends" and "Frasier" are gone. "ER" and "Law and Order" aren't carrying them anymore.


Oh stewardess...I speak jive.
