Cool, no sign of that annoying assistant.

 

[Mogwai]

Looks good!

So.....anyone watching this season? Some parts have been ok but the new characters suck. And since they have lost half their audience I dont see this coming back for a 3rd year.

✔ that.

Even 'Karen' doesn't seem as hot as last year . . . but man, can she sing!!

It was neat to see McPhee and Jennifer Hudson singing an amazing duet -- weren't they both second place finishers on 'American Idol'??

 

[The Squirrel]

I've like the new season so far. I like the plot line with the two up and coming playwrights.

 

[Forever Rud]

It matched its series low in the ratings last night - a 0.9! Only 2.99 million people watched. Not good.

Especially considering the amazing production values they put into this show . . . and how much all that location shooting, choreography, song writing, etc. must cost!!

Jennifer Hudson actually didn't do that well on Idol. She went out in something like 8th place.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Nothing says cancelled like getting moved to Saturday nights.

 

[The Squirrel]

Woah, really? Ouch. I was really liking this season too.

 

[Sawyer]

Yep. I'm just really pissed off that they decided to give that slot to some ****ty matchmaking reality show instead of getting Hannibal out of the awful timeslot it's been given.

I am a bit surprised that NBC isnt going to see if Smash can get back its audience when The Voice comes back.

NBC once a great network empire dwindled down to its current state. They have great ideas for shows, but they're execution stinks to high heaven. SMASH had a very interesting premise, but bad story telling and in my own opinion the shoving of McPheever down our throats (and I like Katharine McPhee) ruined it. Might as well air nothing but Olympics, Sports and The Voice since that's the only thing making them ratings (I'm not counting Revolution until it airs without The Voice as a lead-in).

 

[Quasar]

They'll kill off The Voice soon enough with overexposure. That's what NBC does with all it's hit reality competitions (Deal or No Deal, Minute to Win It)

 

[The Squirrel]

All in all, Season 2 is better than last season. I'm really enjoying the songs for Hit List.
