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
The big question here is will the Emmy voters embrace the ladies of The CW. Traditionally, the CW is ignored in major categories. There’s a solid push for both Bloom and Rodriguez, and they have an equal shot. Odds are … Continue reading Emmy Watch: Best Actress In A Comedy
The Television Critics Association named their nominees for the past season. PROGRAM OF THE YEAR: The Americans Empire Game Of Thrones Mad Men Transparent OUTSTANDING NEW PROGRAM Better Call Saul Empire The Flash Jane The Virgin Transparent OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT IN … Continue reading TCA Award Nominees
I’ve been running down the comedy nominees in the past week, and the comedy series nominations are a lot easier to predict (most of the time). The category is narrower, since you can only have one potential nominee from each … Continue reading For Your Consideration: Best Comedy 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

Last night, the big debut was Jane The Virgin, which opened to 1.6M viewers and a 0.7 in the demo. Not only did it build on lead in The Originals (1.3M/0.7), but it also doubled the audience from last years … Continue reading ‘Jane The Virgin’ Opens Solid, Builds On ‘Originals’

The fall season is a little over a month away. Networks have shown off their product at the Television Critics Association conference, as well as the handful that are premiering at Comic Con. My predictions are only of the fall … Continue reading Fall TV Snap Judgments
SUNDAY: ABC is essentially playing it safe, and keeping Sunday Night intact. American Crime will swap for Resurrection at midseason. Resurrection was a buzzy drama that started seeing a ratings decline. Not waiting till midseason is probably a smart move. … Continue reading Fall TV: A Night By Night Comparison Of What May And May Not Work
The CW’s hammer, or axe, or tennis racket, or whatever proverbial device they swing at the network, came down today. Judgement was decided upon the six bubble series, as well as the Freshman pilots. Good news came to Beauty And … Continue reading The CW Renews Three, Cancels Three, Adds Four
