The 34th Annual Saturn Awards: Winners

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | June 25, 2008

Saturn AwardBack in February the nominees were announced, and Lost was leading nominations receiving no less than 8 nominations. The Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films made the winner known, and the ABC hit-drama is now leading again, taking home half of those awards, including the much-deserved Best Network Television Series award. And other than the award for Best Actress on Television, I’m pretty happy with the results.

Here’s how it goes (in italic my votes back from February 21st, in bold the winners) :

The Good, The Bad And The Ugly… This Season For NBC

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | June 19, 2008

NBC(This week we look back at how each of the main networks handled things this past season, as well as looking at how things are looking up for the coming one. Agree ? Disagree ? Share your thoughts and grade networks in the comments below…)

The Good

This season NBC had some really good series on, and not only that but they had simply the best new series of the season : Life. Some very good new series (again, Life, but also Journeyman) and some very good returning series (30 Rock, The Office, …), at first it really looks like NBC might be a winner.

(Side note: For all fans of Life out there, there’s a new fansite around, The Path To Zen, on which you can find (among other things) a really great & interesting read about how Life could become a big hit, if NBC believed in it! I highly recommend the read, especially if you like the show…)

Adding to that the renewal of newcomers Life and Chuck, both deserving a second season for sure, or finding a way to save fan-favorite Friday Night Lights, NBC looks like a winner.

And yet, they’re not.

Another Look At NBC Schedule: It Makes Me Wanna Puke…

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | April 3, 2008

NBC revealed its new schedule, and now that we have had a little more time to digest it, let’s come back and see how it went, was it mostly good, or bad.

And I’m sure some will like it, because Friday Night Lights is coming back or because there hasn’t been a complete takeover by reality crap, but just because it’s not the worst it could have been doesn’t make it good. And quite frankly, this schedule is no surprise coming from NBC, but it’s also clearly nothing good. They’re a bunch of idiotic sellouts, and they make no secret about it.

Saturn Awards Nominations

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | February 21, 2008

Saturn AwardSaturn Awards Nominations have been announced, and it looks like there’s a general feeling that they got things right, as Lost is leading nominations receiving no less than 8 nominations. Much deserved, given how this season is nothing less but amazing!

Let’s also mention a couple of nominations for NBC’s canceled-too-soon Journeyman, starting with one for Best Network TV Series, and no less than 3 nominations for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

Doesn’t mean they got it all right though, because to give 5 nominations to Heroes sounds really wrong, to give it a nomination for Best Network TV Series is complete bullshit!

After The Strike, When Will Your Favorite Shows Return ??

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | February 11, 2008

Mysterious ClockNow that the strike is (almost) officially over, now that everyone will be back to work this Wednesday, it’s time to make a first update of the list I compiled a few days ago already to answer the questions we are all facing now :

Will our favorite shows be back this season ? How many more episodes will we get ? When do we get them ? What’s the smoke monster ?

I won’t repeat what I said last time about what shows might be back soon (the big hits : House, Grey’s Anatomy, CSI, etc) and which are likely not to return this season (the new ones : Life, Chuck, Dirty Sexy Money, etc) and let’s start the updated list right now !

UPDATED on Tuesday, February 12.

Strike Update : How will you favorite shows be affected ?

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | January 28, 2008

Let’s start this week with an update of our famous grid of how the strike affects your favorite series. As you’ll see, many series are now completely MIA, and quite a lot only have very few episodes before leaving us as well… Let’s hope that strike gets resolved soon, because even if it does we’re still in for weeks of nothing!

So again you will have a first chart with as many series as I could get info about, and for each of them how many episodes already aired, how many should be done and waiting in the can (written & produced), and then what we all care about, how many are left - as of today, 01/28/08. I’ve also added how many episodes had been ordered.

34th People Choice Awards - The Results

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | January 9, 2008

People's Choice AwardsLast night were hold the 34th Annual People Choice Awards, sort of. Because with the strike, and promises of picketing and, therefore, not one single nominee showing up (except maybe Jay Leno…) it’s quite a different kind of show that took place on CBS.

There was no real event, no red carpet, no audience, no celebrities, pretty much no show. What you had was Queen Latifah realizing she got screwed big time as this is no where near what she was offered/agreed to do, and a awful lot of clips from the past years, when things were fun, as well as pre-taped acceptance speeches for winners. Sounds like fun ? No ? Guess what ? Well, I didn’t really bother, but I’m sure it wasn’t !

Anyways, the list of winners are right below, in bold, while my original votes are in italic.

Strike Update : How will you favorite shows be affected ?

Well today seemed as good a time as any other to update the grid of how the strike affects your favorite series done in the past already.

Again you will have a first chart with as many series as I could get info about, and for each of them how many episodes already aired, how many should be done and waiting in the can (written & produced), and then what we all care about, how many are left - as of today, 01/01/08.

New Series Of 2007 : The good, the bad, and the ugly…

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | December 31, 2007

As the year 2007 goes, everyone is making their list of best and worst of the year. Given how I don’t really like such list, especially because it means going over two half-seasons of TV with series we haven’t seen in quite a while (Lost) and new ones we’re crazy about (Life), it’s just weird. That, plus I didn’t prepare anything throughout the year and didn’t feel like going over it all, yes I’m lazy.

Anyways, that’s not the point. The point is, I did not do a best/worst of list, instead I decided to simply go over all the new series of the season, all those I actually watched that is, to see how things went down.

Wednesday’s Numbers

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | December 20, 2007

After announcing and promoting fresh episodes, CBS went all reruns. Surely people got fooled by this, and since their dramas usually do well in rerun mode, this night was no different and they took the night both in total viewers and on the 18-49 demo.

At 8.00 I sad to see NBC coming first, but really I couldn’t expect repeats of a crap like Back To You to come in first…

Moving on. While a repeat, Criminal Minds did pretty well coming winning its slot with 11.6 million viewers, that is better than its last repeat two weeks ago (9.4 million), but of course it then had Deal Or No Deal and a new Private Practice to compete against. This time, it was Clash Of The Choirs - doing not as good - and Private Practice was a repeat, and repeats and ABC don’t go together well.
