Labour day? That phoney baloney holiday crammed down our throats by fatcat union gangsters?

Equally importantly, Bales departure will also mean irritating celebrations will also reduce by that amount.

Is there any ruling on shows not currently on the fall schedule eg. Hannibal, Suburgatory and numerous new shows? These shows are obvious picks if allowed, the networks have already shown a lack of confidence in them, and they may not even show them eg. Dane Cooks show last year, and midseason replacement shows don't…

Yeah

It was on a TI called This week we are barely putting up with the Killing.

Are you me? Thats scarily accurate.

My summer work and holidays are over so I settled in to a month or so of missed tv.

Happy birthday Flowsthead. Sounds like you had a good one.

@avclub-0f2aab038be93ff407d92af691001e73:disqus  Wasn't the calendar called "Family Guy: 12 Laughs a Year"?

So it not like they are getting new information, if a 1.1 is enough then renew it. Although I'm not sure about the impact of time on their decisions, maybe once they don't decide by upfronts then its…

Is there some login problem with AV Club recently or is everyone just watching Arrested Development. Comment sections are so empty. There were newswires yesterday with just 30 comments.

Hulu sometimes messes up UK shows by not following UK ad break timings, leading to awkward cuts) and also if they were…

Its weird having seen future episodes in advance of the reviewer(s). You normally have us at a disadvantage.

But what does the A in AD stand for?
