Thanks for mentioning the Supernatural episode; I missed this one but have only heard great things about it. <BR/><BR/>I also caught a preview last night on USA that they will start rerunning the first season of "Burn Notice" tonight at 11:00 est. Just thought I would mention it for those people, like myself who heard all the great stuff about it but missed it the first time around.Jonathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548468568645800735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32031147.post-11249576021003796752008-04-17T15:08:00.000-04:002008-04-17T15:08:00.000-04:00You forgot to mention "Grey's Anatomy," not my fav...You forgot to mention "Grey's Anatomy," not my favorite show but one of the highest rated on TV, making Thursday a killer night.<BR/><BR/>I'm hoping that there is enough great buzz about Eli Stone that it survives for next year.<BR/><BR/>Smallville has been on the decline, but I'm hoping with a new production team, Season 8 might pick up some new steam.Phillip Ramatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07739438191519332313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32031147.post-25735150809712110342008-04-17T14:45:00.000-04:002008-04-17T14:45:00.000-04:00Thursday has always, always been the most coveted ...Thursday has always, always been the most coveted night by advertisers, which is why Thursdays have arguably been the best night for Television, going back to the 1980's when NBC had their amazing comedy lineup with shows like "Family Ties", "Cheers" and "The Cosby Show" and transitioned from "St. Elsewhere" to "L.A. Law" to "er" in that coveted 10 pm slot.<BR/><BR/>But that was all NBC; once CBS found it's footing with the surprisingly popular "CSI" about 9 or so years ago, (with NBC's lineup aging), then all of sudden, Thursdays turned into a wide open free for all and now CBS, NBC and ABC all have highly rated and/or highly honored series on this night. <BR/><BR/>With shows like "Ugly Betty", "Lost" and "Eli Stone", ABC has been doing the best all around job though I agree fully about "Supernatural" being the most underrated show on Television and tonight's episode was BY FAR, my favorite of the season and maybe of the series. <BR/><BR/>As for "Eli", let me again shout from the rooftops my praise and love of this show, my praise and love of the majority of the acting performances (Johnny Lee Miller and Victor Garber, in particular) and absolutelyly an amen to the shocking CGI destruction of the Golden Gate bridge last week. That shocked both my wife & I.<BR/><BR/>(and yes, please let Garber sing).<BR/><BR/>I can only hope ABC finds a spot for this show. What's amazing is this show is likely to be ignored come Emmy time, yet an equally whimsical and far lesser quality show like "Boston Legal", inexplicably steals Emmy's and Emmy nominations from several shows and actors, far more deserving. <BR/><BR/>As for "Smallville", I am still watching (for now), but frankly I wish it was the show that would die. It's been largely garbage the last 2-3 seasons. I am annoyed it's not closing out this year and coming back for one more go around. And that's going to be, apparently, without Lex?!!?!
