CBS: In probably the most surprising news, CBS opted not to continue with 2 Broke Girls, cancelling the show after six seasons. I honestly thought 2 Broke Girls could survive being on the bubble and pull out a seventh season … Continue reading CBS Axes ‘2 Broke Girls’, Other Cancellations
As we move on to the third network in my Bubble Show predictions, we take a look at FOX. FOX has already renewed a handful of shows, including Lucifer, Bob’s Burgers, The Simpsons, and Empire. Here’s how the rest of … Continue reading FOX’s Bubble Shows: An Analysis
Here, there are really only three locks. Even in its old age, I can’t see Modern Family not getting nominated. I can see Big Bang Theory getting left out, but there are five shows I think competing for three spots, … Continue reading Emmy Watch: Best Comedy Series
We might actually get a few new names here in this category. Definitely Aziz Ansari, whose Master Of None looks to put him as a lock. It’s one of the few times where a new nominee would be considered a … Continue reading Emmy Watch: Best Actor In A Comedy
Again, I previously lamented how unlikely new blood will be in these categories. It’s a sad, but true fact of how boring and predictable the Emmy’s have become. This category is a bit different from supporting actress, as a few … Continue reading Emmy Watch: Supporting Actor in a Comedy
2015 was an excellent year for Comedy, but not on Network TV. Rather, Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon expanded their rosters and shook things up. Sure, the networks still make comedies, but it’s hit and miss. I’ve been trying to compile … Continue reading 2015 In Review: Comedy TV Series

It’s a foregone conclusion that Julia Louis-Dreyfus will be nominated for Veep. And, if Emmy voters don’t get on board with Ellie Kemper in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, then they’re insane. Amy Poehler should get love thrown her way for her … Continue reading For Your Consideration: Best Actor/Actress In A Comedy
Oh, definitely Jon Hamm for Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. And how could the Emmy voters pass on Mel Brooks for The Comedians? There’s always some SNL hosts in the mix, and Louie CK and Bill Hader could be in the mix. … Continue reading For Your Consideration: Comedy Guest Actor/Actress
As I start my annual Emmy wishlist, I remember that the Emmy voters quite frequently get it wrong and turn their noses up at shows that the public is embracing. In other words, get ready for more Downton Abbey nominations, … Continue reading For Your Consideration: Emmy Best Supporting Actor/Actress In A Comedy
FOX’s overhyped sitcom Mulaney premiered last night, in case you missed it like everyone else. It was seen only by 2.3 million viewers, with a sad 1.0 in the demo. This was coming off of Family Guy, which had 3.7 … Continue reading ‘Mulaney’ Disappoints
Once Upon A Time hit a series high in almost 2 years with the introduction of the Frozen characters. 9.4 million people tuned in and it got a 3.4 in the demo. Following that was Resurrection, which was OK at … Continue reading ‘Revenge’ and ‘CSI’ Disappoint, ‘Once’, ‘Simpsons’, and ‘Family Guy’ Surprise
Although the timeslot wars don’t officially start until next Sunday, the 28th, it’s important to note that NBC’s lineup won’t change (they’re sticking with football), and CBS launches their lineup this Sunday. 8PM: Once Upon A Time vs Madam Secretary … Continue reading TIMESLOT WARS: Sunday
