Tis the season that television lovers hate. That is when they find out which of their favorite Broadcast shows will be back and which one won’t be. For me, I fall in to the latter category and today several shows fell in to it too.
Over at ABC, the good news is that Modern Family will be back for not one but two more seasons. Which should be its last two, hopefully. Creativity wise it has been going down hill for while. Then we have American Idol’s first causality. Even though Last Man Standing does better than most of ABC’s other comedies and it airs on Friday nights, ABC cancelled the show after 6 seasons. But don’t worry Black-ish will be back for another season as if it wasn’t going to be.
CBS was quiet, while its sister station The CW renewed iZombie and The Originals for a fourth season. I am getting brains on the grill in honor of the pickup. Maybe awards shows will finally start to recognize Rose McIver who is the most underrated actress. While I wait to announce the new shows until next week, I have to tell you Dynasty is coming back and I am preparing to love to hate it every week.
Fox made my day because they picked up The Last Man on Earth for another season, so we will find out what Baby Phil Tandy Miller is going to look like. Will it have eyebrows and half a hair of head. Don’t send out the Bat signal because they also renewed Gotham is coming back too.
NBC was very vocal. They picked up Chicago Fire, Chicago PD and Chicago Med, but have not announced what they are going to with Chicago Justice. They did tell us that Timeless’ time is up. They also said that Jennifer Hudson is joining Miley Cyrus, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton on The Voice. On a positive note, she won’t be on the American Idol reboot.
In case you were wondering why I have a song from Jesus Christ Superstar at the top of my post, that is because it is getting the live treatment this Easter on NBC. I am hoping they cast Josh Groban as Jesus, Vanessa Hudgens as Mary Magdalene and I can’t believe I am saying this but Taylor Hicks as Pontius Pilate. Who do you want to cast in the lead roles?
Before Alexis Bledel went to Chilton Prep on Gilmore Girls, she went to public school in Rushmore. She looks the same now as she did when she was 16 in that 1998 movie.

Season 7 is an unlucky one for Scandal because it will be its last one. According to TV Line, Shonda Rhimes made the decision to end her show next season. No word from ABC if it will be a full season or a shortened one. I am thinking it will be the latter.
With Scandal ending and The Catch most likely cancelled that will leave Rhimes with just Grey’s Anatomy and How To Get Away with Murder on the network. With the latter on its last legs. That means the network’s shining star is shining a whole lot less brightly. Which is fine with me because I find her shows overly depressing.
Are you sad Scandal is ending or will you miss it when it is gone?

Sunday is Mother’s Day and did you get your mom a present for her day? Nope? Then Pornhub has the perfect gift to give her. It is Mommy’s Special Glasses and it is free.
What is Mommy’s Special Glasses? Your mom will get a card with a greeting that says, “May your favorite day of the year…become the best night of your life,” “I hope this gift warms your heart…as well as some other parts,” or “After all of these of letting you down…it’s about time you got something BIG and satisfying for once.” Along with the greeting card, she also gets Virtual Reality glasses for her smartphone attached to it that will give Adult Entertainment a whole new exciting feel. Something mom needs and hopefully daddy is there to give it to her!
I can’t think of a better present to give mom? Can you? She will thank you from this Mother’s Day until next year’s. Let’s just hope she doesn’t tell you how thankful she is for your gift in detail. Then you will regret giving her the gift that keeps on giving.
Kiefer Sutherland is on tour promoting his new album and he doesn’t sleep alone on the road. Instead he shares his bed with Rockin’ Rabbit and his friends. Even though we are used to seeing him as the tough guy on 24 and the cool headed President on Designated Survivor, I think it is nice to see the softer side of him. Look at that smile, don’t you just want to cuddle up with him just like he is spooning his furry friends.
