If you’re anything like this TV Addict, odds are fairly certain that you spend an inordinate amount of time scratching your head over some of the shall we say more curious decisions TV Networks make when it comes to some of your favorite shows.

WHAT WE’RE WATCHING: AMERICAN IDOL (8PM FOX, CTV in Canada) Do we really need two hours to announce the final 36? Apparently, the answer is yes. THE NEW ADVENTURES OF OLD CHRISTINE (8PM CBS) Left to her own devices, Christine attempts to prove she can take care of herself. Something tells us this won’t be [...]

Ask the Addict: KNIGHT RIDER, BROTHER & SISTERS, DEXTER, Michael Ausiello & More!

I heard a rumor that PUSHING DAISIES is done as a series and seeing as you are the most in the know person I know. Is this true? Or have I been bamboozled? — Dan B. The TV Addict: The facts are these. People stopped using the term Bamboozled in 1931. But seriously, as dreadful [...]

Think There’s No Such Thing as a Stupid Question, Check These Out!

Should the country that chooses NBC’s abhorrent KNIGHT RIDER [7.6 million viewers] over ABC’s whimsically original [albeit slightly confusing] PUSHING DAISIES [6.3 million viewers] seriously be trusted to vote the next President the United States? Does FOX’s full season pick-up of FRINGE officially get them off the hook for the early cancellations of such TV [...]

KNIGHT RIDER Review: Worst New Show of the Season

When NBC President Ben Silverman first announced the re-launch of the KNIGHT RIDER franchise, this TV Addict was more than prepared to cut him a little slack.

Get Up Close and Personal with KITT

At yesterday’s Global TV UpFront, the TV Addict got up close and personal with the Kitt. And on a somewhat related note, I wanted to take a moment to highlight a reader comment that almost had my morning coffee streaming out of my nose. Said reader EKI in response to star Justin Brueing revealing that [...]

Justin Brueing: Expect Big Changes When KNIGHT RIDER Returns

It looks like the negative reaction that followed February’s two-hour KNIGHT RIDER movie may not have fallen on deaf ears after-all. Talking to the Canadian media [including your very own TV Addict] at Global TV’s 2008 UpFront this morning in Toronto, KNIGHT RIDER star Justin Brueing had this to say when asked how the series [...]
