I'm wondering if this week's Person of Interest was a backdoor pilot for a Sarah Shahi gun operative character. If so, I want to watch that show.

Looking forward to checking them out - thanks for reminding me that they were this coming week - I'll set my DVR. I'm a sucker for History Chanel, so I imagine I'll enjoy.

Yeah. That wasn't a shock. It seems to clear the young FBI profiler though (except you can never be sure. Shoot him in the vest so he isn't seriously hurt?). I still suspect that someone in the FBI is in on it as well. The lead agent is the most likely, so it probably won't be her. |

NBC Affiliate in Cleveland Airs 20-Year-Old Episode of Matlock In Lieu of Thursday’s Primetime Lineup to Protest Andy Griffith Oscars In Memoriam Snub
Neetzan Zimmerman Andy Griffith, who passed away last July, was unceremoniously absent from this year's Oscars "In Memoriam" tribute, so NBC's Cleveland affiliate WKYC-TV decided to make it up to him by giving Matlock most of their Thursday primetime block. That's right: Regularly scheduled episodes of The Office, 1600 Penn, and Law and Order: SVU were canceled at the last minute to make room for the 20-year-old Matlock TV movie, The Legacy. The preempted shows will instead air on Saturday night. "The Academy did snub Andy Griffith," WKYC president and GM Brooke Spectorsky told The Hollywood Reporter. "We thought it would be a nice tribute." Surprisingly, so did viewers, who stayed tuned for the legal drama starring Griffith as veteran criminal defense attorney Ben Matlock. According to Showbuzz Daily, rating figures show the first hour of Matlock was just slightly below the latest figures for The Office (1.6 vs. 1.7), and it actually bested 1600 Penn with a 1.8 rating at 9:30 compared with 1.7 for the latest addition to NBC's Thursday comedy block. Spectorsky says he plans to do the same thing again next week with the Matlock: The Heist, but that should wrap up the station's "fun experiment." |

I really think that the Mindy Project has dramatically improved over the last half of this season, so I'm glad that they are picking it up again. New Girl seemed to be a formality to be picked up. The Following will likely come back for 15 episodes I believe, unless they have dramatically altered the way that the show will run. |

I'm still saying the young guy is a follower. She's sat beside him in a car all day, she'll know he's got a vest on, hence the shot to the chest. I'm starting to head over to the 'this is crap' camp, but got to keep watching to the end now. And do the ads have to spoil every twist? |

Yep, expecting the young guy to be revealed as #2 in the organization. I mentioned it on Facebook during his first episode, when he indicated he was a big fan of Hardy's, and haven't changed that opinion yet.
I'm wondering where they go for 2nd season - same bad guy, or someone "worse" a la 24 with the new bad guy every season? |

IDK what show you guys are even talking about, but if it's getting this much discussion shouldn't it be in its own thread?

Guess History Channel is the new USA or AMC. The Bible pulled down 13 million viewers and Vikings 6 million. Pawn Stars is drawing 5 million. American Pickers and Swamp People are pulling down 4.5 million.
The Walking Dead with just over 11 million viewers would have been No. 1 for the week without The Bible. Crazy numbers these cable nets are piling up. |

I guess this means more reality shows and less, you know, history shows on the history channel. this really bums me out.

Are we really arguing about spoilers in a show that has thus far had the bad guy's plan go exactly as planned every.single.week? I can start a new thread, sure, but seriously if the plot of the show is "Joe is going to be transferred to a new prison" what odds would you need in order to bet on "Joe isn't going to magically escape?" 1,000,000,000 to 1? It's off the board, and thus far, for the most part, speculation is what has been posted.

considering the number of us who DVR shows and may be weeks behind, it would be nice to keep spoilers out for those who watch at a slower pace. I'm sure when I got around to it, I would have known that a prison transfer was going to mean an escape...but since I'm not even there yet, I'd appreciate not knowing.

I personally seem to record almost everything. We have two dvr that can record four shows at a time and I would wager most of the time all four are recording. I am so far behind in watching shows thanks to traveling, I think I will never catch up.

I don't watch anything live. we don't have that many shows that we watch, maybe 5-10 but my wife works nights so we do fall behind. We're 3 or 4 behind in Following and haven't even had a chance to start the Americans yet, for example. Ditto for the Mindy Project.

Just sat through one of the most abysmal 30 minutes of my life: ABC's The Neighbors.
Call me a hipster, but other than reminding me why I watch so little television anymore I can't imagine what purpose that dreck actually serves.

I'll take that over awful nudity and tragically flawed characters and painful, uncomfortable viewing out of a comedy any day.

Whatever floats 'em I reckon.
But if that's not one of the 10 worst shows ever produced, I can't begin to imagine the ones that beat it. Supertrain had better performances than what I saw.
