You forgot about Robert Wisdom, who was on a little-known, rarely discussed, infrequently referenced but fairly OK-regarded show about wires.

Seth MacFarlane was so bad as host, it almost makes Billy Crystal in blackface seem like a good idea. I was waiting for him to try and bring out Uma/Oprah from Letterman's bag of bad tricks to try and seal the deal as worst Oscar host ever.
Jack Black? I'm pretty positive you mean Jack White (who, of course, helped bring back Loretta Lynn's career).
TV by the Numbers has upgraded Nashville to "Certain to be Renewed" based on its performance so far in 2013. So, I'd say a second season is 90% a done deal at this point.
Nashville is really character driven, in that the most of the cast is putting out such great performances, you actually care about them even when they're not given much to do, or when situations that seemed like they should have been much more complex or evolved (Deacon's time in the Rebel Kings, the whole election…
OhthePossibilities, that's not what I'm saying AT ALL. In previous team competitions in other seasons, the head chef was sent home for passing the blame to the person who caused the failure. Kristen tried the high road, but it didn't work either. She was damned either way.
It was so bad that, at the end of our painfully long two-and-a-half hour ordeal, I told the manager it was the worst meal I'd had all year, save a Burger King in the Istanbul airport. He ended up comping our meal, which is the only time I've ever had that happen (or asked, for that matter).
Damnit, I need to stop reading TVDW's reviews of the show. I watch the episode, love it, read the review, and then I'm reminded the writing really is crap, and it's basically being carried by Connie Britton's performance, along with good assists from HP, Clare Bowen and Robert Wisdom (Eric Close couldn't act his way…
It deserves an F because the entire premise of this show is "top chef", not "top drama." If the judges were SO conflicted by a decision, there's a million other ways they could have handled it—how about a 30 minute one-bite cook-off? Instead, they made a decision solely focused on driving people to LCK online.
Hmmm…better, but only slightly. At least at Range, there was one tasty dish to accompany the four mediocre ones and the two so inedible they were sent back. Though I hear the service was better at Fieri's, so maybe it was a wash.
It's as if they learned nothing from the complaints about Season 9. I think the only way to fix things is for them to shed a sizable chunk of their audience. I'll start.
If ever a show deserved a "F", tonight's episode certainly earned it. This show has become about as rancid as Bryan Voltaggio's new restaurant.
I'd be pretty happy at this point if they just up and eliminated everyone who's not Kristen or Brooke, brought back CJ from LCK purgatory, and then made the three of them duke it out for whatever episodes left.
So who do we need to yell at to get TBS to add Happy Endings after Cougar Town in a "Shows that were so good ABC canceled them" bloc?
A Cougar Town/Happy Endings block on TBS would make it the awesomest thing since a two-for-one special on ice cream and wine.
Surprised no one else noticed when Beardo the Weirdo made the comment that "rending rabbit is just like rending a cat."
The Whigs brought to DC one of the best, most energetic performances I've ever seen at the 9:30 Club. There was a lot of hype around this, and it lived up to every single bit.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone as excited to exit Top Chef as Bart was last night.
