This is a bummer: ABC’s promising thriller The River got off to a relatively modest start in the ratings Tuesday night.

The two-hour opener averaged 7.5 million viewers and a meh 2.4 rating in the adult demo, up 4 percent from the comparable debut of Off the Map last year. Moreover, the show lost a 10th of a rating point each half hour during its run. The news is a bit surprising considering how successful ABC has otherwise been at launching new shows this season, often delivering stronger premiere ratings than expected. This isn’t a lethal number, but I think most expected (and certainly hoped for) something bigger.

ABC also aired two episodes of Last Man Standing (7.9 million, 2.4), down slightly from a few weeks ago. The second half hour featured a guest appearance by Kim Kardashian (yes, I agree, but her episode did slightly better than the first).

So what did well last night? READ FULL STORY »

Gleeks, here’s something you already know: Ricky Martin is hot like fire. You’ve probably already seen his performance of LMFAO’s “Sexy and I Know It” and he’s even steamier on next week’s episode of Glee, titled “The Spanish Teacher.” EW got an early peek at the episode, in which Martin plays David Martinez, a night school Spanish teacher who helps Will (Matthew Morrison) when a student complains about his teaching abilities. But that’s only one part of a pretty plot-packed hour of Glee. Here are the highlights [MILD SPOILER ALERTS]… READ FULL STORY »

Sadly, there’s no new Glee tonight but Gleeks can get their fix with this new promo that Fox released for next week’s ginormous Michael Jackson tribute titled, appropriately enough, “Michael!” In the promo, cast members talk about paying homage to the pop icon, Blaine (Darren Criss) wears a sequin blazer, and Kurt (Chris Colfer) rocks what appears to be a man brooch! So much to look forward to!!! There also appears to be a Blaine/Santana face-off with the Warblers in the vein of Jacko’s “Bad.” Here’s the full track list…

  • “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’”
  • “I Want You Back”
  • “Bad”
  • “Scream”
  • “Never Can Say Goodbye”
  • “Human Nature”
  • “Smooth Criminal”
  • “Ben”

Ratings: Great night for 'Glee' (congrats, Finnchel?)

by
Tagged: , , , ,

An excruciating month (and then some) of reruns on Fox finally came to end on Tuesday, where originals of New Girl and Glee helped the network to win the night among adults 18-49.

Though it was even with its last original five weeks ago, Glee earned a 3.0 rating/8 share in the demo, the second-highest rated show of the night behind New Girl, which posted a 3.4/8 — up 3% from its last original. The latter show featuring Zooey Deschanel not only won its half hour with the key demo, but also ruled in adults 18-34 and teens. Then again, it helped tremendously that CBS aired repeats of NCIS and NCIS: LA – two shows that traditionally kick butt in their timeslots. But hey, let Finnchel have their moment in the sun! It was a big night for the teenage lovers. READ FULL STORY »

SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HAVEN’T WATCHED THE LATEST EPISODE OF GLEE!!! We didn’t see that coming (well I kinda did since I watched the episode last week but whatevs)!! Glee‘s latest episode, “Yes/No”, not only ended with Will (Matthew Morrison) and Emma (Jayma Mays) getting engaged during an epic synchronized-swimming number but also the more shocking twist of Finn (Cory Monteith) proposing to Rachel (Lea Michele)! What’s gonna happen next? Will she say yes? How long were they in that pool? EW talked to Monteith about the major episode and cleared up whether or not he’ll be back in season 4.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Finn proposed to Rachel! Were you surprised when you read the script?
CORY MONTEITH: We were floored. I knew it was coming but I didn’t know it was gonna be that much of a cliff-hanger. And the way that it was shot and directed, he gets down on one knee but you don’t even know if he’s proposing. You just don’t see it coming.

Does Rachel give him an answer in the next episode?
She sure does. READ FULL STORY »

Only to be warned by Finn that he has now made himself public slushy-target No. 1. Oh, Finn. How right you are.

The year 2011 hasn’t been the easiest for Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Co., on The Vampire Diaries, and, as Julie Plec told Mandi Bierly, the first new episode of the season doesn’t do much to indicate changing winds in 2012. READ FULL STORY »
