Every network is trying to get some buzz about their shows and people talk about what’s on their fall schedule, and here’s the latest one from Fox, and I gotta say I like it! I don’t know, I guess I now really like what’s coming out of this network I once hated more than any other…
Anyhow, latest in their “It’s so…” campaign, they had the cast of all their hit shows do some pretty cool photo shoot, So Fresh, and after the pictures here’s a nice little video of the shooting :
…Fox! I don’t like all the shows we see here - by the way is it me or does that new series with Jerry O’Connell, Do Not Disturb, look awfully bad ? - but Fox does have a lot of shows I do watch and am excited about, and unlike others they sure know how to promote them! Finally a good promo.
The ceremony airs tonight at 8.00 on Fox, but it has already been shot and the winners are already known. Of course, if you haven’t heard about it yet and wishes to stay in the dark until the show, for some reason, feel free to do so - I won’t post any results before the jump.
I’ll just remind you that as far as nominations went, despite what Nielsen may say Gossip Girl was a clear winner. If according to ratings the show isn’t a hit, it surely is when it comes to what teens actually love, never mind whether or not they can relate to the story as some recently complained about…
What to know if GG was the hit the TCA nominations announced it would be, or if Nielsen was right all along ? Wait to find out tonight on Fox, or just click right now to read the read of this post…
It’s a pretty easy thing to do, to have a crush of Felicia Day. It really doesn’t take much, for example watch Dr Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog and you’re there.
And speaking of which, if you were wondering about how she got the part of Penny in Joss Whedon’s musical, wonder no more : while at ComicCon promoting Dr Horrible of course of her own online show, The Guild, Felicia talk to Mahalo Daily about just that, how it was to work with Joss and Neil Patrick Harris, or her upcoming appearance in an episode of hit-drama House.
No spoilers of any kind, but a very nice interview, and Felicia cute as always, of course.
At this point we have the fall schedule and premiere dates for all the main networks (ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC and The CW) so now the only thing that remains is for you to search for the information concerning the shows you love/are interested in.
To make things easier for everyone, I took back the complete new fall schedule compiled before premiere dates were known and updated it. You will find here the complete 2008 fall schedule day by day, with all shows on their slot with their premiere dates included. That way you can see how [insert day here] will be, try to see what you’ll watch and what you’ll have set on your DVR, and when things will be back.
And because sometimes you want to know things the other way around, know what will be on at a given time, I’ve also included the list of all premieres dates ordered by date. With all that, hopefully you should have all the information you need to get ready for next fall.
Yesterday the Television Critics Association revealed their picks for outstanding achievements this year on television. As always the TCA Awards are known to give out awards to shows usually “snubbed” by other wards like the Emmys, as the critics tend to be more inclined to reward quality shows from cable even if they aren’t a popular hit.
I’m not sure if this is still true this year though, because there wasn’t really any surprise coming from the TCA Awards, which rewarded Mad Men a lot, the new series from AMC which just happens to have received no less than 16 Emmy nominations, a pretty amazing performance which would already be fantastic for either a new series, or a series from AMC.
Now, maybe it’s because I personally do not love Mad Men that much, but while I have no problem to recognize that there’s quality on that show and it does deserve many praises, I’m actually really getting a bit sick of it now.
There’s been much talk and then some about those nominations, as the top10 finalists lists have been made public, or find a way to the public eyes. But now speculations are over as the official nominees were announced by Patrick Harris and Kristen Chenoweth - both nominated by the way.
What to say ? Not many surprises, even with things that went wrong and the misses here and there. Not much love for The Wire, I think more was expected, but it’s a general trend : cable networks are kicking in with style (AMC, FX, etc) and HBO is really lacking some great hits nowadays. Sure, The Wire is still around, and Entourage hasn’t been forgotten despite being away for so long, plus the “experimental” In Treatment was noticed, but it’s not like they had a The Sopranos or Sex And The City anyways…
ABC just released their fall premiere dates, and if on some networks new episodes kick in as soon as early September, on ABC you’ll have to wait a bit longer to get your latest fix. Boston Legal is the first script series to come back, and that won’t happen until September 22 !!
Yep, that late. Could be worse though, imagine you were a fan of, say, Pushing Daisies or Dirty Sexy Money, then September won’t be easy on you, because they’re not returning to the air before October ! Though they do kick on on the first day of the month, if that’s any comfort… If you’re waiting for Samantha Who? or Eli Stone on the other hand, you don’t even get such comfort, as they will return respectively on October 6, and October 14 !
ABC new series are Opportunity Knocks, premiering on September 23; and Life On Mars, coming in much later, on October 9.
Interested in a full listing, followed by a complete listing of all shows premiere dates (ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC) ? It’s all after the jump !
It’s summer time, and all the big shows are gone, with them all the characters you loved to meet back every week. But before you go into depression while still waiting for Psych to premiere next week, here’s a little something to cheer you up!
You know Gregory House ? The great and always-cranky doctor addicted to Vicodin ? You miss him ? Well, here’s a great little guide to pay House yourself and impress everyone next time someone just falls over without any apparent reason, courtesy of Guardian.co.uk…
Don’t worry, it’s not illegal to just read it, and it’s pretty hilarious - especially if you love the show :
