Yeah I caught it, real funny- Man for awhile netwrok had NOTHING worth watching- now I've got 24, Arrested Development, Lost, CSI, My Name is Earl, The Office, Everybody Hates Chris and maybe Invasion (I DVR'd the pilot and gonna watch it later).

Yeah, about damn time the networks finally jumped off the reality TV wagon and is actually giving us some good series again. EHC is probably the best of them this year (Invasion was ok, as was How I Met Your Mother)

 

Next week's show looks great too. "If that happens again, someone's getting stabbed!"

I'm shocked you guys are praising it. When I first saw the commercials, I thought for sure it'd be nothing more than a throw away nothing show. I guess I'll be downloading this tonight and watching it tomorrow now, so damn you all.

 

I went from not watching any TV at all one point last year, to now watching:

 

-Arrested Development

 

-Scrubs

 

-The Office

 

-Lost

 

-My Name Is Earl

 

-South Park

 

-The Simpsons

 

-Family Guy

 

-American Dad

 

-The Shield

 

And possibly Everybody Hates Chris, but I'll see about that soon.

TV got better once movies started sucking again. I had hope for movies around 1998-2000, but TV has overtaken them in quality. There are bad TV shows of course, but the best TV blows away the best movies these days.

LIES.

 

Although I think the worst movies do indeed suck worse than the worst TV shows nowadays. I haven't seen bad movies this bad since the 70's.

I believe it is Terry Crews playing his dad on the show, right? He's great in the stuff I've seen him in...hell, I thought he was easily the bright spot in White Chicks and his cheeseburger schtick got some laughs in Longest Yard.

From mediaweek-

 

Over at once dominant NBC, the lights continue to dim on Thursday. The one-hour season-premiere of Joey (just what we needed, right?) dipped to a mere 6.3/ 9 in the overnights, 7.84 million viewers and a 3.2/ 9 among adults 18-49 from 8-9 p.m. To illustrate just how weak Joey is, take a look at the first half-hour versus the series-premiere of UPN’s higher-rated Everybody Hates Chris:

 

Thursday 8-8:30 p.m.

Joey (NBC) – season premiere

Overnights: 6.1/ 9 (#4), Viewers: 7.57 million (#3), A18-49: 3.0/ 9 (#3)

 

Everybody Hates Chris (UPN) – premiere

Overnights: 6.6/10 (#2), Viewers: 7.58 million (#2), A18-49: 3.2/ 9 (#2)

 

Everybody Hates Chris was most-watched sitcom in the history of UPN, building from former occupant WWE Smackdown! on the year-ago evening by 3.58 million viewers, 53 percent among adults 18-34, and 78 percent among adults 18-49. Ignited by Chris, UPN year-to-year was up 10 percent on Thursday among adults 18-49.

How have you not heard anything about this show? It's been hyped as UPN's saviour since May

 

I couldn't care less about hype. The commercials for the show didn't make it look like anything special to me.

 

I just watched the first episode, and I'll continue to watch it. It was bust out loud funny to me, but it was entertaining enough to get me to check out the second episode. It takes a quality show to get me to watch it, so the simple fact that I'm going to watch it again means a lot to me.

 

I can't believe that the show is on UPN.

I thought it was ok, Terry Crews was the bright spot in that garbage "White Chicks," he was funny as the dad, when he was trying to eat that little piece of chicken had me cracking up.

Saw a preview for it and it looked good, forgot to check out the premier. It could definitely be a black wonder years, but I'd rather they didn't try and just let it happen naturally.

 

Love the dad calculating how much everything costs.
