Kevin M, today (12): I still haven’t watched the last few episodes of season one of Timeless, and based on the ratings for the Timeless season premiere, I’m not alone in growing frustrated by their execution of a potentially good premise. Idol didn’t seem to be a good lead-in. I have this

You know, when Phil McGraw created a one hour drama based on himself, they chose an actor who did not resemble him in any way. And now the drama based on Marcia Clark chooses an actress that does not resemble her. I sense a pattern. When they make a one hour drama based on me, I hope they don’t

"The Fix," a pilot ABC picked up, about a former county prosecutor who comes back to handle a case involving a famously-acquitted actor accused of a new killing, casts Robin Tunney (my family remember her from "The Mentalist," f'rinstance) as the prosecutor... Variety

They had a 2.3 in the demo and TV by the Numbers called that solid. That's a lot of money to pay for 2.3. He said Seacrest had a low profile. http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/daily-ratings/tv-ratings-sunday-march-11-2018/ ⁣Not sent from an iPhone​ -- You received this message because you are

I thought it was a great episode as well. My biggest complaint is that they have Kate McKinnon playing everyone. But otherwise I liked the sketch. The Nickelback sketch was memorable. I will even defend the Kyle Mooney sketch. It mostly was the same joke told over and over. I liked how they

I agree about the Mooney thing, but otherwise not. I’m not saying it was one of the best episodes of all time; I am saying it was one of the best episodes of the season. My social media feed did not have much reference to SNL either way. After reading your take I googled it, and did not see wide

Noting for myself (and many others on my social media feeds) that I found Brown's outing an embarrassment of riches of terrible writing from the endless and horrifically unfunny cold opening through the terrible Family Feud sketch to the horrific 12:55 thing that was one of the worst offerings
