That’s how it goes, every 365 days or so when the year comes to an end, right before Christmas, you turn to your loved ones to tell them how they’ve disappointed you again, as goes the good old tradition of the alternate holiday introduced to us by no other than George’s dad, Frank Costanza.

Now make sure your aluminum pole is ready, and let’s have a look at all the things that disappointed us this year in TV land. And as it turns out, disappointments have been legion!

Wednesday’s Numbers [12.17.2008]

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | December 18, 2008

NumbersNot a lot of people at 8.00 watching TV, and if the CBS comedies won the slot in viewers they were actually down and got beaten on the demo by NBC’s Muppets Christmas, bringing The Eye down overall on the night. But the net was still a clear winner, with 11.92 million viewers while NBC, second in line, only had 6.52 million.

At 8.00 New Adventures Of Old Christine couldn’t do better than 7.47 million viewers (-800 000) and only 2.0 on the demo, and while down as well lead-out Gary Unmarried actually gained viewers from its lead-in (7.55 million viewers, -600 000) as well as improving on the demo (2.3) as always. On NBC the Muppets Christmas had 7.44 million viewers but a 2.4 on the demo, making it winner of the slot there.

Pushing Daisies: The Norwegians

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | December 18, 2008

Pushing Daisies(S02E10) And that was it for Pushing Daisies in 2008, and sadly we’re also very close to the end of it all as the show, as we all regret, as been canceled already. It’s a real shame, I’ll tell you, that such a great little show so creative and funny and heartwarming can be can out to rest that way, only to make room for more reality crap and other NBC sort of things. Gosh, sometimes I hate TV… or those who makes decisions about what’s on.

Anyways, as we’re coming to an end something seems to be happening on this show, almost like he knew he wasn’t going to stay around for much longer, and we have a much stronger serialized story moving on. Sadly, they can’t go faster that the music and there’s so little time, it will be hard. I hear that with a lot of last-minute tweaking and reworking, the series finale (episode 13) will bring us some answers, but it won’t be as magical as it should have been. If only, because it should have lasted a whole lot longer!

When will your favorite shows end in 2008 ?

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | December 14, 2008

Running out of time?The year is slowly coming to an end, and with it television is like a tree losing its leaves, only it’s our beloved TV shows that are disappearing, leaving our screens empty. It’s always a sad but required period of time when there simply isn’t as much stuff on TV as there used to be, but just to make things more fun (or something like that) not every show airs up to the same date/week and leaves at the same time.

If you’re like me, you’re probably wondering which shows are already gone for this year, and when are the others going to leave us, and this is why I went on to collect such information about quite a few shows and put it all in one place. Now, you can have a quick look at the updated list below, and see if your favorite show has some episodes left for 2008, and if so how many and when they will air.

Wednesday’s Numbers [12.10.2008]

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | December 11, 2008

NumbersUnlike last week CBS had its usual lineup this time, and it showed : 12.03 million viewers overnight, where the second net, NBC, couldn’t even get half of that (5.98 million). The Eye was also winner on the demo with a 3.2, while no one other net could even reach 2.0 but Fox (2.1) The key of success ? Criminal Minds!

Before that the comedies did well, very well in fact : New Adventures Of Old Christine had a season high with 8.25 million viewers (2.2 on the demo) while lead-out Gary Unmarried had one of its best performances with 8.03 million viewers and a 2.4 on the demo. Sadly on ABC it’s not the very little bump that will change anything, with only 4.96 million viewers (1.6 on the demo) for Pushing Daisies.

Pushing Daisies: The Legend Of Merle McQuoddy

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | December 11, 2008

Pushing Daisies(S02E09) Last week we had some unusual pairings going on, and that was all for the best as we had what might have been the best episode of the season, if not series. This week while going back to a more common types of pairings, we still had different stories involving different players, and leaving some whom otherwise wouldn’t usually work together to do so for the occasion.

And much like last time, it worked all for the best, as this was once more a very good episode. An episode which had of course it’s new murder of the week, and as always we had Emerson and Ned to go and have a little “chat” with the dead victim, because that’s how all investigations start for Emerson Cod.

Wednesday’s Numbers [12.03.2008]

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | December 4, 2008

NumbersA pretty good night for NBC last night, as the Peacock managed to do something it hasn’t done in a long time : win the night. Of course, it certainly helped that CBS didn’t air neither Criminal Minds nor CSI: New-York, but the Eye was still a winner on the demo.

Starting great at 8.00 with the most-watched program of the night, Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer, and 11.74 million viewers and 4.2 on the demo, much better than what the comedies usually do. On NBC instead of a dying Knight Rider (or Rosie doing even worse) things were finally looking up, with 10.35 million viewers for Christmas In Rockefeller Center.
