A Run Down of All the Blogging Material I've Missed and Defying Gravity Premieres This Sunday



Well folks, I've finally gotten Wordpress loaded onto my domain. However, using it is not as easy as I imagined, so the launch of my new and improved blog site is not going to happen as quickly as I had hoped, planned or expected. I wasn't going to blog until I could do it on my new site, but since I can export these blogs and comments into my new blog, I figured I had nothing to lose. That is once I figure out how to do it. In addition I had also been on vacation and spent the last few days catching up. Not even catching up on TV watching but just other things and other projects I participate in . (Did you think all I did was watch TV..LOL. It would seem that way wouldn't it?).

So Wow, what have I missed blogging about the past few weeks. Well, if you are not already aware Eli Stone had it's last and final episode . I missed it of course, because I had it recorded the night before I left but it deleted itself due to overcrowded DVR before I could return to watch it. My mom forgot to record the last episode, so we couldn't watch it at her house (where I was on vacation). No worries though, you can catch the episode on their website. Dirty , Sexy Money has taken it's place, however. Both were not watched by many. Actually probably the lowest rated of the season.

Samantha Who also aired it's final episode. What a shame. Christina Applegate and cast were so hilarious in that show I just don't understand. It came to some sort of conclusion, at least. Funny thing is Applegate is nominated for an Emmy for the show. Ah.. I want her to win just to stick it to .. well I don't know. It is highly unlikely she will, but I can certainly cheer for her now can't I?

Kings also ended. Such an awesome awesome show. It left us up in the air somewhat although it did close up other loose ends. I will miss it.

Dating in the Dark premiered. It did pretty okay in it's first outing (it followed the Bacholorette the Men Tell All) and had 6.84M viewers. I would imagine that curiosity is what drew people to it (it did me). I don't really seeing it getting phenomenal ratings in the coming weeks. It held out okay in it's second night on the 27th.. so so far so good. I think it will get boring after awhile. It is definitely an interesting concept.

We had Hell's Kitchen premier and it did very well at it's opening. The 'More to Love Show' is not obviously more to love, as it opened slightly disappointing for the network. Honestly, I wasn't really interested in watching it. By the way, did you notice that the cooks on Hell's Kitchen are a little better looking this time around?

Drea DeMeteo is joining the cast of Desperate Housewives. USA picks up 'Burn Notice' and 'Royal Pains' for another season (not a surprise, USA has been leading TNT in the ratings). 'Dark Blue' premiered well with 3.54M viewers (good show, like it!).

Okay.. I think I've run down a list of some of the things that have happened in the TV world in the past two weeks. I'm sure there is more. To think ..this is the "slow season" for TV viewing.



DVR ALERT FOLKS: Don't forget to set your DVR for Sunday's Premiere on ABC at 10pm of 'Defying Gravity' from the producers of 'Grey's Anatomy'. Can't wait to see that show AND find out how the rest of America responded.
