If you can count 2000 as classic, something called UPTV is apparently showing the first five episodes today of Ed and will be replaying them and future episodes weekdays at 4PM. Never seen the show but apparently it's good, has Tom Cavanagh, and the show isn't on Netflix so I guess I'll give it a try.

I don't think ABC has once cared about Galavant's ratings. They've done everything they could to ensure poor ratings, got them, an then renewed the show anyway. I think there's a chance years from now that someone at ABC will realize that no one remembered to cancel the show and that they kept renewing it out of

I'll never tell.

Yeah I did. It was a bit all over the place and I'm still bummed about SPOILERS poor Abe Vigoda's fate (seriously a lot of people died at the end of that movie and no one really cared) but it's just so compelling to watch with the way it humorously played off its dark subject matter. Also it had Ossie Davis which is

I know it was probably a fluke of nature, but I really hope NBC didn't intentionally schedule their big crossover event for the same week as CBS did because it's clear they came out the loser on Tuesday night. Also apparently it was a lousy crossover which didn't even answer it's biggest question which I had to hear

Since Alain Resnais made those two films back to back, I can hardly count that as a coincidence. I also watched "Hiroshima mon amour" earlier this week and found it pretty haunting.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead almost feels like it is a parody of Hamlet at times but I always wished that they had tied the film version of it in with that Hamlet using the same actors and scenes where applicable.

Didn’t watch a whole lot of movies this weekend what with the heading back to a full work schedule but I did watch the enjoyably weird documentary Gates of Heaven, the great Jet Li starring Once Upon a Time in China, and the pleasant enough (mostly worthwhile to look at) recent version of Cinderella. Also saw Borat

I meant mostly in comparison to how it was doing on Thursday at 9. It went from being one of their top rated dramas to a show doing no better than any other at 10 PM.

Elementary I think can largely be chalked up to the erosion of time though I doubt it is helped having a comedy lead instead of a show with a similar audience. POI was the show that was most affected by that move with its ratings immediately plunging and only getting worse over time.

It's all just shuffling doomed shows at this point as all three shows get similar ratings. There's no reason CSI: Cyber should have come back though considering its performance last year and the fact that they basically decided to kill it by putting it in that slot. Better off throwing one of those three shows in

We all knew this was coming, but it's a shame as it is probably the best drama left on broadcast TV and certainly the most underrated away from this site. As long as they end it well though, I'll at least be contented and at this point, I just hope it airs before the summer though I won't get my hopes up considering

POI would have done just as bad, if not worse, in that slot and this is coming from someone who loves the show.

What's on second.

What did Earth and Wind do to get replaced?

I tried and failed to learn to play guitar at one point. Does that count for anything?

Let us not forget Scream 3, Southland Tales, or Live Free or Die Hard.

SPOILERS I believe the only thing changed was the ending where it is revealed that both The Good and The Weird survived and the scenes added are just minor ones mainly involving The Weird and all after the end of the International Cut ending.

The Good, The Bad, The Weird is just so much fun and is one of my favorite and most rewatchable Westerns led by a trio of great performances. The only thing I can add is watch the shorter international cut which has the superior ending (and the director preferred ending) and a much different tone than the Korean cut.

It's not much different then how Grimm was scheduled last year (only off by a couple weeks) and Mysteries of Laura just pulled a 1.0 on a Wednesday. Even if Shades of Blue hits, which I would be shocked given their track record in that slot, I think Grimm's consistent (and consistently better than anything scheduled
