I’m really disappointed about Medium. I really enjoyed that show.

As for Earl, I stopped enjoying it a few seasons ago when they had Earl in jail for most of the season, then in a coma. I thought those were bad storylines. They should have just stayed w/ the format of him working on his list. That seemed to work and was fun to watch.

Blog cheating?? Whaaat? With the news coming so fast, I gotta stay on top. That said, I don’t give any comments to Kristin. I save them all for you and my local TV blogger.

MEDIUM was cancelled, but there are rumors that CBS (who produces the show) will pick it up and pair it with GHOST WHISPERER on Friday.

As for HEROES, and CHUCK, they are not cut in half. HEROES will run 19 episodes consecutively, while CHUCK may run into the summer should ratings warrant more than 13 episodes.

What happened to Medium? Did it officially get canceled? Monday night was the only night the peacock had going and they have cut Chuck & Heroes in half, & I am guessing doing away with Medium. Can anybody confirm that for me please?

Kristin on E! just posted that Earl is definitely done on NBC. Might move somewhere else but no one is holding their breath.

If I remember correctly, Heroes is getting a shortened season next year. They will probably be done before Christmas, freeing up their slot for Chuck.

It sucks we have to wait until 2010 for Chuck. I kind of considered Chuck & Heroes a package deal, so it may be that much easier for me to finally boycott Heroes (as I’ve been tempted to do so many times before).

I wonder what Trauma is about. Looks like they’re banking a lot on it giving it a competitive Monday slot plus a weekend encore.

If I do finally ban Heroes and if Trauma & Parenthood don’t intrigue me, I’ll have no reason to watch NBC at all until 2010.

Wow, Chuck and Heroes will get big budget cuts. I’m not sold on P&R yet but I’m happy to see SNL Thursday making a return. Seth Myers really does a nice job.

If I remember from the past year, 30 Rock didn’t premier until October 30. Does that mean that Community will air 6 episodes or so and then 30 Rock will take the slot?

BTW: No “Earl.” Will it platoon with SNL Thursday or is it done? FOX didn’t have it either…
