The future is looking bright for ‘Grimm’ (as bright as any future looks on NBC), as it finished first in the demo at 9 on Friday night. Over on cable, FX is celebrating as ‘Sons of Anarchy’ continues to score well while ‘American Horror Story’ finds a series high.
This week’s releases include ‘Awkward’, ‘Farscape’, ‘Being Human’, ‘It Takes A Thief’, ‘Aspen’, ‘Medic’, ‘Neverwhere’, ‘White Chapel’, ‘Crime Story’, ‘Looney Tunes’, ‘California Raisins’, ‘Spongebob’, ‘Indestructibles’, ‘American Restoration’, ‘Wide Country’, and ‘Shaun The Sheep’.
It’s a dark day for fans of ‘Community’ as the new NBC mid-season schedule has the show being bumped into the neverland of ‘returning at some point’. On cable, AMC has found a partner for ‘The Walking Dead’ in ‘Hell On Wheels’.
A light week of releases includes ‘Doctor Who’, ‘Law & Order’, ‘Mr. Magoo’, ‘The Thornberrys’, ‘Babar’, ‘Band of Brothers’, ‘The Pacific’, and ‘Dean Martin Variety Show’.
‘Once Upon A Time’ could be shaping up as ABC’s next hit show after a very good week two outing. On cable, USA returned with new episodes of ‘Burn Notice’ and ‘Covert Affairs’, but that was much less of a fairy tale.
A slow week of releases includes ‘Californication’, ‘Victorious’, ‘Pie In The Sky’, ‘Rawhide’, ‘Voltron’, ‘Brideshead Revisited’, ‘The Chipmunks’, ‘Beast Wars’, ‘Daffy Duck’, and ‘Deadliest Catch’.
ABC and NBC both had good premieres for their fairy tale dramas last week. ‘Once Upon A Time’ and ‘Grimm’ were both well received by audiences. On cable, ‘Beavis & Butt-Head’ returned to MTV, but the big story again came from ‘Walking Dead’.
