If anyone from Everwood appeared on Runaway I’d call the Police and suggest that either drugs or foul play had been involved. What annoys me so much about the Everwood cancellation in favour of, what? is not Everwood specifically (although, it really, really is…) but more this systematic and compulsive stripping of quality tv from these networks. These people think that 18 year olds don’t think and that 35 year olds want to watch fluff all the time. I think a 35 year old would know that they are ‘Free to Be…’

I’m really loving Brothers & Sisters. It’s getting to be so Berlanti. It’s like Everwood on Hormone Replacement Therapy

Common Sense, in the WB’s defense, I sort of liked Twins. Sara Gilbert (Roseanne’s Darlene) makes me smile.

Dear Sam, You’re feverish, perhaps delirious. Bear with us while we point out that the WB & CW execs have axed ANGEL, FELICITY, POPULAR & EVERWOOD, while serving up–INSTEAD–Twins, Living With Fran, Runaway, Men Women & Dogs, Modern Men…need I go on? What kind of minds are running this network, then & now? They’re out of touch with what’s GOOD TV, for sure, and certainly have no clue as to what will actually ATTRACT new viewers.

I agree that las nights episdoe of DH was the worst of the 4 so far, but I did enjoy it overall. I think Nora is so annoying because she’s too cartoonish. She just doesn’t even seem like a real person and is annoying at that.

Meanwhile it’s starting to bother me all this talk about the CW and Everwood and Runaway and 7th Heaven. There’s obviously nothing anyone can do about it anymore and all the people not watching Runaway for the sole reason of it ‘replacing’ Everwood is silly. It’s tv. Nothing lasts forever. I bet all of you would watch if one or two of those Everwood people were staring in it.

Just watched the new episode of Studio 60 and Lauren Graham was actually nearly invisible. That was disappointing since the only scene where she was on the air more than one second was very funny

I had ABC on last night for the 2 shows you mentioned, and honestly…I can take them or leave them. Nothing especially compelling from either.

However, we do need to point out that RUNAWAY dipped to a 1.2 rating, and 7th Heaven was at a season low 3.0 rating. Once again, surely some heads need to roll at The CW for this boneheaded program strategy. Forcing this farce of totally-adult (sans the annoying Sam & David) nonsense, followed by the “just gotta get it on the air” fugitive family is panning out exactly as the Everwood fans knew it would: COMPLETE DISASTER. Trying to explain her decision now would be impossible for Ms. Ostroff. Honey, TV execs are supposed to be a little more on-the-ball than that. You BLEW it big-time by offing Everwood in its prime, and now you’re STUCK instead with two shows & ratings that BLOW.

Starbase135 – I think Andrew is definitely up to something. He isn’t just being nice to Bree to be nice.

I do believe Greg Berlanti’s fingerprints can be seen all over the latest episode of B&S. Hopefully we’ll actually get to see an episode written by him in the coming weeks.
