‘Terra Nova’ didn’t bring the numbers that the $20 million pilot suggested were expected, while ‘Two and a Half Men’ continued to lead all shows and ABC had a good debut for ‘Suburgatory’. On cable, ‘Boardwalk Empire’ is back for HBO.
This week… ‘How I Met Your Mother’, ‘Hung’, ‘The Middle’, ‘Carlos’, ‘The Hour’, ‘Call Me Fitz’, ‘CSI’, ‘CSI Miami’, ‘CSI NY’, ‘OG Queer as Folk’, ‘Army Wives’, ‘SVU’, ‘Cleveland’, ‘Kojak’, ‘The Monkees’, ‘New Tricks’, ‘Kendra’, and ‘Holly’s World’.
Ashton Kutcher’s introduction on ‘Two And A Half Men’ brought ridiculous numbers to CBS, while Simon Cowell and ‘X Factor’ quickly dashed any thoughts that FOX might have another ‘Idol’ on their hands.
Another big week of releases includes ‘Modern Family’, ‘The Mentalist’, ‘Castle’, ‘Hawaii Five-O’, ‘Mike & Molly’, ‘Raising Hope’, ‘Happy Endings’, ‘Body Of Proof’, ‘L&O LA’, ‘The Kennedys’, ‘Dalziel & Pascoe’, ‘Dick Van Dyke’, ‘Judge John Deed’, ‘Red Green’, ‘Mad’, ‘McMillan & Wife’, and ‘Rugrats’.
And with that, the summer TV season is done! Bring on the new fall season. We got our first taste of fall last week as 10 shows had their premieres across CW, NBC, and CBS. There is still a lot to be decided, but fall of 2011 is already off to an interesting start.
A big week of releases includes ‘Supernatural’, ‘Big Bang Theory’, ‘Glee’, ‘Grey’s Anatomy’, ‘It’s Always Sunny’, ‘Rescue Me’, ‘Outsourced’, ‘Sanctuary’, ‘Spartacus’, ‘Inspector Lewis’, ‘Camelot’, ‘Blue Bloods’, ‘Blue Mountain State’, ‘Doctor Who’, ‘Private Practice’, and much more.
The NFL kicked off the regular season with a huge result in prime-time, bringing big numbers back to the networks. Over on cable, ‘Jersey Shore’ continued to dominate, but ‘Sons of Anarchy’ returned with a very good number.
