With rumors running rampant that the team behind THE NEW ADVENTURES OF OLD CHRISTINE are feverishly working behind-the-scenes to ensure their highly underrated sitcom finds a new home on ABC after being unceremoniously dumped by CBS after five seasons of consistent laughter, we thought now might be as good a time as any to remind [...]

The Good: Rather than face the wrath of a legion of very angry TV Addicts, the CW, as we expected, renewed both LIFE UNEXPECTED and ONE TREE HILL for a second and eighth season respectively. And while there’s no official word on just how many episodes we’re getting, we imagine the consensus among fans is [...]

On this morning’s edition of THE EARLY SHOW, MURPHY BROWN star Candice Bergen revealed that Heather Locklear was in fact the network’s first choice to play the show’s titular character. This Thursday, WILL & GRACE alum Megan Mullally will drop by PARKS AND RECREATION to play the ex-wife of Ron Swanson (Nick Offerman), who according [...]

WHAT WE’RE WATCHING: AMERICAN IDOL (8PM FOX, CTV in Canada) The most dragged-out competition on television crowns another person you won’t remember a year from now (Taylor who?), but not before stretching it out for as long as they possibly can.

Aside from having some of the lengthiest titles in the history of comedic television, last night’s two hour comedy block of THE BIG BANG THEORY, HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER and THE NEW ADVENTURES OF OLD CHRISTINE have one other thing in common. They all played a part in getting this TV Addict to utter [...]

THE NEW ADVENTURES OF OLD CHRISTINE Julia Louis-Dreyfus doesn’t just put an end to that silly SEINFELD curse.

In a press release sent out yesterday, CBS proudly touts that they’ve “renewed 11 series for next season in a move that will return 10 hours of the Network’s primetime schedule and eight of the top 20 scripted series on television.” Unfortunately, two of the series not officially picked up by the network include two [...]
