Good news for Pushing Daisies, Back to You, Gossip Girl and Private Practice... Dirty Sexy Money is a great show.. and it keeps getting better, people should try it again... maybe it needs a special airing on Thursday night to introduce more people to it :D so what were Gossip Girl's acutal numbers? maybe Bionic Woman would do better on Mondays after Heroes

Its odd, we went from a few years where shows got cancelled at the drop of a hat to the season of nothing can get cancelled. Thank you writer's strike.

*sigh* The problem is, Bionic Woman is bad so I enjoy seeing it fail. But then I remember that it still has more viewers than FNL and I get depressed. Then again, BW isn't on Fridays.

Anyway, still glad about Daisies. I thought it was a goner from the start but its managed to hang on. Maybe viewers are getting smarter (but if they are, why aren't they watching FNL?)

Yay for daisies and Life gaining viewers.

I finally gave up on Bionic Woman. I said I would stick with it, but I just can't get past the terrible casting. They made a mistake and it's much too late to fix that now. I think I would like michelle ryan better if she weren't faking an american accent. I liked her more in the episode she spoke in her normal voice.

Last night, I asked my dad what he was watching and he said, Without a Trace, but I've seen this episode. I'm like, dad, that show is on thursday nights. So I went to see what he was watching and it was criminal minds. I'm like, that's not even close.

Hope the rise for Life continues. Last night's episode was its best. And I like the mystery of who framed him, unlike some.
