Latest episode clacks for this show:
It was a bit of a strange week for ratings. The Academy Awards (36.31m/12) sent most of the Sunday lineup into repeats. And the Obama address to Congress mixed things up on Tuesday, shifting Idol to Wednesday and Thursday. That, of course, had a ripple effect throughout the ratings. Elsewhere, the new FOX Friday suffered […]
I think this is my favorite time of the year for television. I have new scripted shows I enjoy like Lost and Heroes, but I have my reality television fix in, too. I need my reality fix. While I enjoy fiction, I’m also a people-watcher. And, what better medium is there to observe people than […]

But really, if you have to spin the numbers and start […]
Oh that clever, clever Jeff. He pulled a fast one on both tribes and immediately sowed discomfort into the teams before they even knew each others names. I loved this twist on the format of the show. At least one time before, if not others (I’m too lazy for research) we’ve started off a season […]
