I thought I would check out Glee because of all the fuss and come to find out I wasn't missing anything. This show sucks...A seems to me that everyone sleeps around with each other and their teachers are not any better...STD's flowing around in that room...
Seems like Glee is going down ratings wise. Traffic light will be getting the boot very soon.
Last night's Glee was definitely not a good representation of the series as a whole.
I'd never watched it either until the after Superbowl episode, but I liked it enough to watch all 34 episodes last week and got caught up. It's a great series, but the 2nd season has lost something compared to the first.
I am very happy for ABC today. Really nice to see such a powerful lineup of quality shows holding onto their audience. I know the numbers aren't what they should be but as far as writing, acting, and direction are concerned, ABC's schedule is one of the best on any night of the week. Detroit 187 was as good as NCIS last night. I hope ABC's Tuesday night lineup of quality programming can continue to grow because not one of them is bad. But if they don't, this would be a helluva lineup for Tuesday nights on the ABC Family channel.
@justme
i agree. i watched the first season when it had heart, now it's all smoke and mirrors. 'raising hope' is now the best show on fox.
'the good wife' is the only thing on tuesday nights that i enjoy watching. and it's getting good. next week will have great cameos. can't wait.
NOF and V are very entertaining shows. They deserve more viewers.
v was great last night only one average show this year and that was the first show marcus is lisa father that why anne so angry
I like Detoit 187, but I guess they're not going to keep it going. Atleast, let it come back midseason, next year.
NOF and V...hahahaLMAO at those ratings. Serves ABC right for not nipping those losers in the bud.
