Sunday was a big night for the folks over at 30 Rock. They were scooping up Emmy awards left and right, but what does that mean for the future of the show? It’s something that I find fascinating. Despite all the critical raves and the awards, nobody watches the show. Well, nobody in terms of […]
(Series 2, Episode 1 (or in American: Season 1, Episode 7) – Season Premiere … Sorta) Welcome to Primeval 2.0.
