Good episodes, stunning cliffhanger, and nice use of John Noble, but that island did not look ANYTHING like Bannerman's Island! Pfft. Stupid North Carolina locations. I mean, NC is better than L.A. or probably Toronto but only New York can really be New York. They could have still gotten plenty of tax incentives…

Wow! That's… that's very nice of them, but I'm puzzled. How they are making money? But more power to them!

They don't do that for most of their programs, do they? I bet this is just a special, temporary introductory method of getting new viewers hooked on Rick & Morty. Before long, they'll probably stop putting the show there and act just like any other channel, restricting it to their own site, etc. And really, doesn't…

Ah HA! So YOU'RE one of the six people still watching it! NBC should give you a prize.

Unfortunately, reruns of serialized shows get really really REALLY REALLY REALLY terrible ratings by major network standards. You can't expect NBC to tank its own prime-time ratings for 12-13 hours as a dubious way to promote this show, and as War Is the H-Word explains in his comment, NBC doesn't control most of the…

For me, this one is a D+ at best. It has virtually no plot. I know, I know, RTD wanted to make it easy for all the half-drunken casual Xmas viewers to understand while their children were running around making a racket and while Uncle Terence was jabbering about how much he hates the Tories (or Labor) after drinking…

I've suffered through "The Twin Dilemma" and I'd say that's a pretty accurate assessment. They're atrocious in very different ways, since "P&L" does not feature the worst child actors who have ever existed, though both episodes feature gross sexism. Maybe "Dilemma" is not quite so rapey about its sexism, but it's…

This is a traditional airing pattern for a 22-episode network TV series that isn't heavily serialized. I know a lot of us are spoiled by cable and Netflix these days, but this is ABC. They've been airing non-soaps like this since at least the 70s or early 80s. What's the problem? It's a 10-2-4-2-4 airing pattern.…

I really wanted to like Hannibal, and based on recommendations here, I did finally watch all 13 episodes, but it didn't appeal to me all that much. I like my TV shows to have more plot in them. It had everything else — Mikkelsen is great and utterly obliterates Anthony Hopkins, and there's something you don't see…

Even the evil bastards at Time Warner probably have some kind of privacy policy that prevents them from collecting too much personal info to go along with the data on what you're watching. Most importantly to advertisers, they don't know who is in the room watching which of the shows on your DVR, their ages, their…

But IS there really a better way? You can't measure viewership with DVRs because you can't get the info that advertisers consider most crucial: The demographics (gender and age) of the people who are ACTUALLY IN THE ROOM watching the shows. OK, well, you could get that info with an invasive monitoring device like an…

Potato Star 2013QR3? Is that just an awkward translation or what? Is that a comedy? The title makes it sound awful, amazing, embarrassing, and hilarious all at the same time. Too bad it's not on Netflix Instant. Neither is Vampire Prosecutor, which also sounds like a hoot. But I notice that My Girlfriend is a Gumiho…

The second season is set to premiere this summer, if I remember correctly.

I have it on my DVR in standard-def and haven't watched it yet. I don't get Sundance Channel in HD. I'm wondering if Netflix will get it — then I could stream it in HD and not have to watch in standard-def.

I don't currently see anything wrong with the order of the first season of Farscape on Netflix (USA). Maybe it was wrong before, and then they fixed it? Some people in the Netflix comments are complaining that Chiana appears before the episode in which she's introduced, but that's not the case. The only episode that's…

I'm not sure I should give Sunny a chance because I don't usually like comedies with hateful, nasty, unpleasant, unlikeable characters. (I hated Seinfeld. Yeah, I'm that one guy.) I'm fine with dramas with unlikeable characters or anti-heroes but somehow they rub me the wrong way in most comedies. But maybe I'll try…

If a show does well enough in syndication, "enough episodes for syndication" isn't a limit, just a minimum. That said, I doubt Community does THAT well in syndication… but if it's just minimally successful in syndication, a sixth season could be profitable.

Hmm, I don't watch Zombie Simpsons so I'm not familiar with that one, but *thank you* for inadvertently pointing me towards Dead Homer Society, which was one of the first results when I searched for this "We'll Never Stop The Simpsons" of which you speak. The Dead Homer Society is my kinda place.

Apparently this was produced by ABC News and not their entertainment division! No wonder it was kind of good.

They're getting back into miniseries for various reasons, not least because they want a piece of those massive ratings that Hatfields & McCoys and The Bible got on cable. Although the ratings for last night's premiere of this show were so catastrophic that it may put them off again pretty quickly.
