Happy Endings
My sister and I were watching the same thing yesterday. It was our first time watching it. We already love the show. Too bad it doesn't have much of a chance at survival when it comes to ratings. Not to mention ABC gave it the Friday night death slot. :/

Right now, I'm watching How I Met Your Mother.

Last night was the first time I've seen it, it's a funny show imo, but it seems to be one of those underdog shows that's having a really hard time gaining steam. From what I've read ABC is very invested in this show, but the move to Fri nights is a little suspicious unless they think it has a better chance to build up an audience w/o too much competition compared to any other night in the work week.

EDIT: Come to think of it, this show would probably fit better on a cable network than on a major network if it's averaging 3 mil. viewers. Maybe TBS or Comedy Central? TBS picked up Cougartown from ABC after it got cancelled just like TNT picked up Southland after NBC canned it. It could happen.

I've heard that suggestion being thrown around, but I'm not sure that TBS would want to pick it up, since it would make them look like a dumping ground for failed ABC sitcoms. For the sake of the fans, I hope it gets picked up somewhere.

USA is interested in picking up the show.

See? What did I tell you, that's EXACTLY what's going to happen to that show. ABC cans it, USA picks it up for a 4th season so it can be syndicated and they can make $$$. That's how the business works.

I hope they don't do the same thing with The Middle. I know ratings on that show have slipped in the last year or two.

For now, there's very little chance of it being cancelled. It's their 2nd-highest rated sitcom after Modern Family. In fact, there's already been a syndication deal set.

Every.Simpsons.Ever Marathon on FXX (in the middle of Season 6 currently)

I would imagine the world record for longest TV marathon has already been obliterated and they still have 9 days, 19 seasons + the movie to go. :lol:

I forgot how good this season (12) was like the one that just went off that N'Sync guest starred in. I haven't seen it in several years.

The only thing I don't like about this marathon so far is they're cropping the pre-HD seasons and it doesn't look right in certain scenes of the episodes. I don't get why they didn't just letterbox them or leave them in 4:3. :dunno:
