Just when it looked like Trauma was flatline because it was reported that NBC did not order any additional episodes past the original 13, comes word that NBC has ordered 3 more episodes bringing the total to 16. A spokesperson for NBC told me that they will air 10 episodes before the New Year and the remaining 6 will air at some point next year.
I am so glad that NBC is sticking with the show because it is one of the best shows on TV now. Besides the amazing special effects for the different traumatic situations that they cover like a speed boat crashing into a yacht or a mass shooting or two helicopters colliding and crashing into a building; they also have touching stories with the trauma team members like the above clip when Kevin Rankin told his partner he is gay. The show gets better and better each week and since their ratings have also been improving, I guess NBC decided to give this show another chance. So why not discover the show that was rescued after it flatlined and watch it this Monday and every Monday at 9p before the New Year. I promise you this show will give you the rush you need to start off your work week!!!

Oprah Winfrey will announce tomorrow on The Oprah Winfrey Show that she will be ending her show on September 9th, 2011 after 25 years!!! James Hibberd posted the letter that was sent out to the stations that run her show about her announcement and here it is…
Dear Friends:
Over the past several weeks, my team and I have had conversations with many of you to help address your questions about the future of “The Oprah Winfrey Show.” Of course, the one question we couldn’t answer was the one that only Oprah could. And tomorrow, she will do just that.
But before she speaks to her loyal viewers, we wanted to share her decision first with you – our valued partners for more than two decades.
Tomorrow, Oprah will announce live on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” that she has decided to end what is arguably one of the most popular, influential and enduring programs in television history. The sun will set on the “Oprah” show as its 25th season draws to a close on September 9, 2011.
We welcome you to share this news this evening with your colleagues and viewers. As we all know, Oprah’s personal comments about this on tomorrow’s live show will mark an historic television moment that we will all be talking about for years to come.
We want to thank you for the partnership and friendship we have shared over the years. Your invaluable support has helped us to create the phenomenon of the “Oprah Show” that we’ve all been so proud to be a part of for the last 24 years. My staff and I will be calling all of you directly tonight and tomorrow. We look forward to speaking with you.
And, if you think the last quarter century has been something, then “don’t touch that dial” as together we plan to make history in the next 20 months…and beyond.
I say good riddance! But there are so many people who will have a hole in their lives because they rely on her show to tell them what to read and eat and how their sh!t should look in the toilet. But I guess they should find some relief in the knowledge that she is ending her show after 25 years to have her OWN network with Discovery. So they get her 24 hours a day.
What will CBS’s King World do with their money maker? Right now you can hear them all sh!tting a brick over her announcement!!!
ABC just announced that the final season of Lost is going to begin on February 2nd with a full night event. They will start it off with a recap at 8p and then at 9p we will get a 2 hour premiere. I have been going to Costco and stocking up on Aspirin just to get me through the season. Because you know they are going to answer a question and then ask 5 more questions and then answer and ask and answer and ask and your head will make like that bomb when Juliet hit it with the rock… and go kaboom!!!
BTW Lost’s regularly scheduled timeslot after the premiere night will be Tuesdays at 9p, which makes it sound like the show will be paired with V at 8p. But I wonder what happens when Dancing with the Stars comes back in March? Where will the results show go?
And for you Chuck fans, NBC announced that Chuck will be premiere on Sunday, January 10th before moving to its regularly scheduled time of Mondays at 8p the next night. Heroes will be moving back to its old timeslot of 9p which such a better time for the show!!!
Two officers die (a third found at a different location) and one will be left in critical condition at the CBI office and they will have to try to find out who killed their own. They will have to figure it out if it was an inside job or if someone from the outside came in and killed three of their own and leaving one to die. In the process of trying to find the murderer they will all be rocked by the murders and they will never be the same. True feelings come out and one person will quit. Finally when the murderer’s reasons are revealed it will leave Patrick numb and him wondering about it all. It is a pivotal episode of The Mentalist tonight at 10p on CBS and you are not going to want to miss it because CBI will never be look the same.
Tonight on Fringe the show is adding another element that is going to make you think and will most likely play out through the rest of the show’s run. Tonight at 9p on Fox we meet the observers. We don’t know who they are, but they seem to be at all the important times in history and yet they never age. How do they do it and why are they here now? We don’t know, but at the end of the episode they will give us hint that something is going to happen, but we don’t know what.
Tonight’s Fringe is a show with many new questions and several answers and it is really well done fast paced, action packed hour. We also learn something important about Walter and Peter from their past and we are going to wonder what this means about their future. It is a must watch Fringe, so make sure to watch it tonight on Fox at 9p!
