It was one of those odd weeks in television. The big election changed programming for three nights, knocking numbers in all sorts of directions. ABC came out on top in the coverage, and the four networks that went with election coverage (CW was regularly scheduled programming) combined to average nearly 40 million viewers and a […]
(Season 5, Episode 14) Sadly, we only have six episodes left before Atlantis ends its run. I say sadly because “The Prodigal” really shows that there is a lot of life left in the series. This isn’t a show struggling to the finish line, by any means. With the end in site, there were more […]
