Just when we finally thought we got Jim Belushi and According to Jim off of our TVs, comes word he might be back on TV with a legal drama according to Variety. Belushi would play "a likable lawyer who defends the guilty and the innocent with equal vigor." At this point the show is the pitching phase, and let's hope it stays that way. Because if Jim Belushi gets another show, who knows when we will ever get rid of it. He is like the cockroach of television stars.

The Live Feed posted this really interesting list of the median ages of the viewers of all the new network shows.

Good Wife – 57
Three Rivers – 57
NCIS: Los Angeles – 56
The Forgotten – 55
Mercy – 55
Hank – 55
Jay Leno Show – 53
The Middle – 51
Trauma – 50
FlashForward – 50
Eastwick – 49
Modern Family – 47
Accidentally on Purpose – 47
Brothers – 46
Cougar Town – 46
Community – 39
Glee – 37
Vampire Diaries – 32
Melrose Place – 30
Cleveland Show – 28

Since the two oldest skewing shows have already been picked up, I wonder if that means the next 5 on the list that haven’t been will get the ax because their viewer median ages are all over 50? While the news might not be good for them I am wondering if because Trauma is doing better than Leno and Mercy if that makes the show any safer than it was without that age. I also hope that because Accidentally on Purpose is below 50 unlike the other three new shows on CBS that they will get the back 9 order ASAP since it is such a good show and they are averaging younger! I also find it interesting that Melrose’s median age is 30, you would think it would be higher because you would think all the people who watched it in the ’90s would raise the age, but I guess now. So which show’s median age surprised you the most?

Spaceballs get animated on G4 this Sunday!
September 18th, 2008 under Primetime TV. [ Comments: none ]


Spaceballs is back 21 years later on G4 this Sundays as Mel Brooks’ Spaceballs: The Animated Series and I can’t wait. I so miss Mel Brook’s humor and this looks it is going to be a great fix! It actually looks cruder and ruder than the original and who would’ve that could be possible.
So tune in for Mel Brook’s genius this Sunday at 3p for the original movie and then at 5p for Mel Brooks’ Spaceballs: The Animated Series!

OMG! These are so much fun! Last year I went to Golden Girls, HIMYM, Supernatural and Family Guy and I had a blast! I would’ve gone to more like House and Grey’s Anatomy, but they sell out fast! You learn so much about the inspiration of the show and how the cast gets along and so much more.
This year I am going to try to go Heroes. Jericho, Ugly Betty, Nip/Tuck and maybe The Simpsons and American Idol. Let me know if anyone else is interested in going to any of them! I promise you, you will not be dissapointed!!! 

(PS If network or production company wants to give me a free ticket to review their night, I would not say no! LOL!!!)
