DUETS/ABC…proving to be the perfect couple…
CBS win in all repeats is embarrassment for all other networks. Its laughable.
USA and TNT sleep. If not already will take PoI in syndication. I mean this week is best CBS drama in rerun.
Too bad Saving Hope premiered so poorly. Very entertaining fast paced show
You’re hilarious. And obviously high.
truth be told, “truth” be right
Take Me Out was so funny I almost peed myself. Seriously, this show is unexpectedly funny and the girls who are looking for a date are GREAT – real women and not plastic performers.
I saw a minute of Take me Out and for a second I thought I was watching Telemundo and not because of George Lopez it just had that feel… all the bright colors, the shiny floor and the unusually exuberant crowd.
Saving Hope was really great. Hope NBC sticks with it. Good cast and interesting twist – looking forward to seeing how the story continues
nonsense
Saving Hope Is a funny and sincere show. It’s the best NBC has had since the recently cancelled Harry’s Law! They need to keep It on- there other shows s–k Big Time! You are so right!
