Scrubs by iheartvaughn	Jul 27th, 2003 12:45:08 AM
Is NBC trying to ruin fan support for scrubs even more than they already have? First, they show NO SCRUBES during may sweeps, and now they're not premiering it until a full week after EVERY NBC SHOW has premiered? Isn't that a little ridiculous? and NBC wonders why SCRUBS gets no love anywhere else....it's a critics' darling, but it's own network gives it no back up.

KotH & Simpsons on Sunday night ... and (maybe) Enterprise on Wednesday. That's it. Congratulations networks. (although I may give Angel and the Handler a try this season). FIREFLY LIVES!

From the pilots I have seen "Threat Matrix", "Fearless" and "Coupling" are crap, while "Joan of Arcadia" and "Karen Sisco" are decent. Looking forward most to "Wonderfalls", "Still Life", "The O.C.", "Skin" and "Tru Calling". Unfortunatley FOX wont be blessed with that many hit shows.

Nah, it's "Guuuuuuuuuuuuuzzzzzzzzzzzmannnn nnnnn!!!" by Christopher3	Jul 27th, 2003 10:09:44 AM
Cops, lawyers, superhero chicks and non-nuclear families. Wake me up when something as original as "Now and Again" airs. Zzzzzzzzz. Zzzzz.
Angel........... by ogonekenobi	Jul 27th, 2003 12:20:10 PM
How come the WB isn't showing reruns of last seasons Angel. I've heard that the Upn isn't showing the last season of buffy because it no longer holds the rights. I'm going thru withdrawl and all the Wb is showing this summer is a bunch of reality crap.
We have to wait all the way until November 2nd for Simpsons and by CoolDan989	Jul 27th, 2003 01:25:26 PM
But I am excited about Fear Factor returing, that is the ultimate guilty pleasure show I love watching (yes, even the gross parts). But a lot of these new shows look like crap (surprise, surprise), especially Las Vegas, because it looks like a pretty insultingly cynical view of the city with very limited premise. And Whoopi Goldberg's new show looks like racist horseshit that will probably be canceled within a few weeks.
Angel reruns and Buffy by Electric_Monk	Jul 27th, 2003 02:56:59 PM
Actually, UPN has the rights of season seven of Buffy until the end of August. Then in September, those last 22 episodes go into syndication. It's the same with FOX and Futurama. When FOX pulled the show in the spring, they still had about 10 episodes not yet aired. At the time, they had said they had no intention of airing them but could hold them until the end of August -thusly Cartoon Network could not air them. However, since the show is such a big hit off network, some one over at FOX must've thought they better air them over the summer, because if they hadn't, Cartoon Network could've made a killing by advertising "never before seen episodes". So FOX will air the last Futurama on August 10. UPN has the rights of Buffy until August. If they don't want to air it, it's there choice. Same with Angel. If there is one disadvantage to a serial type series (and which will obviously lose most of that this season), they don't do very well in summer reruns (and this will give TNT the chance to air the first four seasons of Angel beginning in September). And since Angel already had a few strikes against it, my guess is the WB was unwilling to lose even further ground. My guess is that they'll hold the show until September, and start reairing the final arc that will lead up to the season opener on October 8.
So Skin is Romeo and Juliet with that dash of porn that it so ba by Big Bad Clone	Jul 27th, 2003 03:22:36 PM
Most of this stuff looks like shit. Watch Rock me Baby become the Next Yes, Dear while Girlfriends gets cancelled.
On the contrary... by The Garbage Man	Jul 27th, 2003 09:00:46 PM
Richter was a clever, well-written show with a great cast that was not promoted or scheduled properly. And for those reasons, I'll gripe as much as I damn well please.
Ya Know by HailDaHypnoToad	Jul 28th, 2003 10:36:23 AM
I could give a fuck less when ED, ER, Friends or any of the rest of that ridiculous tripe returns to numb the minds of America. TRUly... Just my opinion. I'm entitled. ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!!!
Ummm... by Halloween68	Jul 28th, 2003 01:12:48 PM
I thought Ed was cancelled. What the hey?!?!? Is it back. I admit, I call it a guilty pleasure. I mean come on... There's not a lot else to choose from. Also, I too enjoyed Andy Richter when it was on. It's a shame the network lobbyed to kill it. Funny show. That last episode with Conan Obrien was hilarious.
