It’s a well known fact, there’s no justice, especially not in the world of Television! And the latest example of this is what happened to the new show Justice.
While Shark got a full season order, FOX’s new drama filled with lawyers, Justice, has had quite a hard time. It got moved around on schedule, took out the air for a bit, before coming back in December, and it is now once again off the air. And no word on when it’ll come back, if it even ever does.
Yet despite all that BS Justice is actually a very good show. Maybe it took a while to get there, and get people to like & watch the show, but it got there. All we need now is FOX to bring it back on!
 Here’s how it started. Before it was on, Justice had lots of very good things for it. It’s a Jerry Bruckheimer show for starter. We all know he’s involved in some very good shows, and he knows how to make things work. Could also means Justice would look like a “CSI for lawyers�, which he kinda does in a way – they work in big places, have all the latest high-tech things & tricks they could ever need, etc – but it doesn’t have to be a bad thing.
Another big thing, a very interesting one that would separate Justice from any other traditional shows, is that in the end we get to see what really happened. After we spent a full episode seeing people lying or hiding things, not always telling the truth, or not the full truth, people looking for evidence, trying to find out how to win their case, then we would see what really happens.
This opened up a lot of very interesting possibilities : Would they win and set free a killer? Would they be unsuccessful to defend an innocent men wrongly accused ? Read the review of “Where did Justice go?” »

Shows: Justice, Shark
By fred | December 21, 2006
In the past years we’ve had many new TV shows that hit our screens, and some pretty damn good shows! This season didn’t break the rule, bunch of new shows have appeared, some already very popular, some already off the air (!), some quite good, and some crap too.
Today I want to talk about (what I believe is) the best new show of this season: Daybreak.
Yes. Daybreak. You heard – or read, whatever – right. Yes the show that has already been put off the air by ABC monkeys people (my apologies to monkeys, even they wouldn’t be that stupid!) because they don’t know how to make smart schedule, and keep their promises. And are retarded.
Every time you hear about Daybreak, you’ll get some Groundhog Day reference. It’s a must. And it makes sense, in a way, since both have the same basis : a guy is living the same day over & over again.
But when people hear this premise, they immediately start to wonder how the show could not be boring, since even a 13 episodes-long season is way longer than a 2 hours movie. And how could watching the same day every episode not get boring.
Those could be legit questions. I guess. But honestly, if the creators/writers of the show hadn’t thought about all this when coming up with this idea for a show, they would be pretty stupid. And they, are not ABC execs. Also one could think that no one would have giving them a go for a show that would obviously be boring even in the making, or when reading script. Even at ABC.

Shows: Daybreak
By fred | December 19, 2006
So it is now official, ABC decided to put their new show Daybreak off the air. Proving once again, as if they needed to do so, that people working there are just a bunch of morons.
Was that harsh? I can’t really tell. I’m not sure. I mean, after all, they are.
Ok, maybe it was. A little. But guess what, that’s not worst behaviour what how they treat their audience, that is us, you & me, when they make such decisions.
Cause this really has to be one of the most stupid decision ever, and also why people who watch TV hate them more & more, and watch TV less & less, at least the traditional way.
Let’s rewind a little. Wednesdays, 9pm. Sitting in front of the TV. On ABC. That’s when all Lost fans, addicts & all the others were watching they favourite show. But after only six episodes – and by the way this is so not a way to go. Why couldn’t they just go the smart way, 24-style, wait ’till January and then just air the whole season, all episodes, in a row. But airing just a few episodes, too little to develop a real story, before taking a break of months, that is just stupid. Read the review of “ABC morons need a break!” »
