We can officially put the 2010-2011 season in the books now, and the more things change, the more they stay the same (‘Ido’l and ‘DWTS’ are still huge). As the season ends, it’s time to welcome the onslaught of summer programming. Hello ‘Bachelorette’ and ‘So You Think You Can Dance’.
This week at your local DVD emporium you can look for sets from ‘Kids In The Hall’, ‘Capadocia’, ‘Trailer Park Boys’, ‘Transformers’, ‘Melissa & Joey’, ‘Decoded’, ‘Children’s Hospital’, ‘Fanboy and Chum Chum’, ‘Dean Martin’, ‘Caillou’, ‘Micky Mouse’, and ‘Ice Road Truckers’.
The week that was brought a host of finales to each of the networks. That was overwhelmingly good news. Even those that were off the year ago pace saw a boost over the previous tougher spring weeks. Over on cable, keep an eye on those ‘Game of Thrones’ numbers.
This week’s releases include ‘Covert Affairs’, ‘Royal Pains’, ‘Twilight Zone’, ‘Feathered Serpent’, ‘South Riding’, ‘Flashpoint’, ‘Degrassi’, ‘The Virginian’, ‘Wagon Train’, ‘Wild Thornberrys’, ‘All In The Family’, ‘Bionic Woman’, ‘Tim and Eric’, and ‘Teen Mom 2′.
As we are on the eve of upfronts, news of cancellations and renewals is flying in. This week we take a look at the fates of some of those bubble shows, and ponder what Ashton Kutcher replacing Charlie Sheen on ‘Two and a Half Men’ means for the CBS Monday.
A bit of a quiet week brings sets for ‘The Archies’, ‘Sabrina The Teenage Witch’, ‘Doctor Who’, ‘Moll Flanders’, ‘BraveStarr’, ‘Scooby-Doo’, ‘Home Improvement’, and ‘Webster’.
