The TV Addict 

With two hours of So You Think You Can Dance! and a new episode of Traveler (thought the pilot was awesome) tonight, I won’t be watching Hidden Palms…not sure I would have watched even if the night were tv free. For me, the descriptor “OC knock-off” doesn’t exactly make me want to jump in. I got enjoying whiny teenagers out of my system with Dawson’s Creek…

I will not be watching tonight but it’s already DVR set for Sunday’s repeat. Tonight is all about So You Think You Can Dance? and I’m going to check out The Next Best Thing (maybe it’s better than the dreadful Madonna movie of the same name). I am excited about Hidden Palms tonight because you can’t go wrong with Kevin Williamson (Wasteland was a great unseen gem).

FYI Emily…tonight’s Traveler is just a repeat of the pilot. The post-Grey’s run was just a “sneak peek” because tonight is the regular time slot premiere.

I’ve already seen three too many episodes of Hidden Palms, and I have no intention of suffering any longer. Do yourselves favors by skipping this one altogether.

However, The Next Best Thing: Who Is The Greatest Celebrity Impersonator? looks like good mindless fun.

And yeah, Traveler is re-airing the pilot and the second episode back-to-back tonight.

Im not watching THE CW after VM cancellation, it is dead to me, plus Hidden Palms looks like crap

Um, they gave Oliver Trask his own show. I won’t be watching. He’s far too annoying.

I’m upset that both Hidden Palms and Traveller have been shunned by their networks, pushed to the end of the TV season and start of non-viewing summer season. Both shows looked very intriguing to me, but why waste my time, I figure, with shows that will be here and gone, solely due to lack of network support. Are you telling me that both ABC and CW had such terrrific years with every timeslot, that they couldn’t possibly find a place for these dramas on their skeds?

And P.S.: All you Veronica fans who keep whining that the show had such a “huge fan base,” where were the ratings, then? Sure, the couple million who watched it, loved it. But a network can’t keep a show on beyond 3 years if a larger audience won’t watch; advertisers don’t buy tiny numbers, unfortunately. The show typically lost 70% of the Gilmore lead-in; trust me on that. It was not the “dream pairing” Ms. Ostroff imagined.

I’ll check it out. Seriously, I don’t understand why people make such snap judgements like “it’s awful” without even bothering to watch. It might BE awful, it might even be unwatchable. But passing judgement before one has even seen an episode is shortsighted and just silly. I hope viewers give the Fall’s debutes of “New Amsterdam” and “Moonlight” at least a look-see before standing atop their rickety pedistals and declare they’re unwatchable. Personally, I’ve liked the young lead actor in “Hidden Palms” since he did the CBS movie “In From the Night” a couepl years ago with Marcia Gay Harden. That alone makes me take a chance on tuning in tonight!

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i mean no duh….this show looks awesome but nothing like the OC. i mean….theres drama, romance, suspence…..evrything to make a good show….so yea i will be watching Hidden Palms from now on….ive see the first two episodes and they werent great but they were good….cn wait to see the third episode!!!!!!!!!!

Hidden palms is me and my bfflz fave show. We love it. and shes thinks johnny is hot and wants his baby. Cant wait for second season!!!
