Maybe Bachelor jiltee Melissa Rycroft brought the ratings momentum with her, or maybe America is as obsessed with jailbird Lil’ Kim’s ballroom dancing as I Read the full post.

    Wow! Did “Castle” suck. Likable cast, boring plot. It’s like “Bones” without the science and the strong supporting cast. Glad Nathan is working. Show is awful. I’ll give it one more view for Nathan, but it was really weak.

    Castle was so bad that I honestly couldn’t tell you what happened, I was THAT bored. After the first few minutes, I kept it on as background noise and surfed the Web instead. Nathan Fillion deserves WAY better!

    NBC please do yourself a favor and change your mind about renewing Heroes for a fourth season. Heroes really should end this year, look at the ratings they’re pathetic.

    It is beyond me that anyone would rather watch a bunch of D-List celebs dance instead of watching the AMAZING actor HUGH LAURIE on HOUSE.
    You are missing a master at his craft!
    A once in a lifetime chance to see one of the best actors of our time.
    I just don’t get it…..sigh.
    Anyway, HOUSE was AWESOME Monday night……really GREAT!!!

    In my opinion: I personally like to watch people dance. I believe the appeal to dancing with the stars is being able to see celebrities live. Although I would rather watch America’s best dance crew.

    Laura – DWTS is live, House isn’t. I watch DWTS live and then Tivo House to watch later.

    I do not like reality shows. I hate “Dancing With The Stars”. Most of them are not stars anyway. They just each want their 15 minutes of fame. My personal life has enough reality.
    I would not miss “House”. Hugh Laurie is a master of many talents. His show also has a very good ensemble cast

    I enjoyed Castle; I can’t say it’s much fresh air, but playing opposite the self-important Caruso it’s definitely a winner.

    Wow! Short attention span! How can you honestly say the show was bad when you only watched the first few minutes of it! I thought Castle was quite good and a refreshing change from the morbidly over evidence laden and gorry shows that have taken over the air waves. Of course I have ACTUALLY WATCHED the shows I’m talking about ….

    fake, phony, fraud…aka melissa of dwts. she has revealed in the latest edition of an entertainment magazine that her goal is to be an entertainment news correspondent. she was very clear on the bachelor to jason that she wanted to be a first grade teacher and that was a critical issue for jason. melissa is showing fake her true colors by now sharing her real reason for going on the bachelor. hers was about fame and getting into the entertainment arena not being a wife.
