I had hopes that Rachel Feinstein would advance to the final five on ‘Last Comic Standing’. Those were dashed this week. Apparently, even American viewers think that stand up comedy is a man’s world.
It looks like Ivey isn’t alone in picking ‘Covert Affairs’ as the best show of the summer. In its second episode, the ratings were up, landing it well ahead of ‘White Collar.’ ‘Rizzoli & Isles’ had a pretty good second week as well.
I’ve already pretty much forgotten the three people kicked off ‘Last Comic Standing’ this week. Their material was nothing special. And so far, I am two for three in my predictions. Maybe I should move to Vegas….
The big news this week was on cable, with six big premieres. The new shows, ‘The Glades’, ‘Covert Affairs’, and ‘Rizzoli & Isles’, looked very good next to ‘White Collar’, ‘Psych’, and ‘The Closer’.
The final ten perform on ‘Last Comic Standing,’ and the voting begins … and now things are getting interesting.
With nothing too exciting happening on the networks, the biggest news this week was on cable, where Syfy premiered ‘Warehouse 13,’ ‘Eureka,’ and ‘Haven.’ Spoiler: They’re all going to spend the summer being hammered by ‘Pawn Stars.’
Only one more woman advanced to the final ten on ‘Last Comic Standing’. Grr! And, at least to me, the clear winner already emerges….
