ABC went unpick-up happy two weeks ago and made the stupid decision not to pick up the brilliant Eli Stone. So if we all tune in to ABC tonight at 10p, we can show them what a dumb a$$ decision they made by not bELIeving in Eli Stone.
BTW ABC announced today that the proven failure Cupid will be getting Eli Stone’s slot in March. I say boycott the show! I mean it couldn’t even complete a whole season the first time it was around because it was so bad, why do they think it can be a hit now???

On November 4th we believed so much in Barack Obama that we got out there and voted for him to become the President of the United States. Now I am asking you to believe in Eli Stone the same way, instead of leaving your house to vote I am asking you to get on your couch and watch this feel good show this Tuesday and every Tuesday night at 10p on ABC!!!
ABC has yet to decide the fate of this darling little show, but we can make a difference by checking out this show now now now! Show the advertisers and ABC that we believe that television can be great again! It can make us cry, laugh, sing, dance and feel inspired all in a one hour show. Eli Stone is just that show. Greg Berlanti (Everwood) has once again created pure magic with this show that is brilliantly acted by Jonny Lee Miller, Loretta Devine, Victor Garber, James Saito, Natasha Henstridge and Julie Gonzalo. This show got George Michael to sing and dance on several episodes. It also got Sigourney Weaver and Seal to make their network TV acting debuts. And who could forget it also brought Katie Holmes back to TV in a way we never seen her!
But forgetting all the names, this show is refreshing. It seriously makes you feel good. It makes you want to make a difference. Yes you are sitting on your couch or lying in your bed (because it is 10p on a Tuesday night) but you wake up the next day wanting to do something good like Eli Stone! So you can start by doing something good now and watch Eli Stone this Tuesday and every Tuesday at 10p! Maybe if enough of us bELIeve, ABC will do the same for Eli Stone and give this amazing show a full season pick-up!!!

NBC has cancelled Lipstick Jungle and My Own Worst Enemy, Fox has cancelled MadTV and The CW picks up Privileged for 5 more episodes according to The Live Feed.
Lipstick Jungle with Brooke Shields came back for its second season with weak ratings on Wednesdays, so when NBC moved it to Fridays the writing was on the wall for the show. I am sad to see this show go because it took me a while to get into it, but now I love it! My Own Worst Enemy gave Christian Slater a show, but even with his name and Heroes as a lead-in, it was not good enough to save the show.
Fox for some reason will pull the plug on MadTV at the end of the season, saying the show had become to expensive to keep on the network. The co-creator of the show says he is not ready to let the show go and will be shopping it around to the cable networks. Hopefully Comedy Central or FX will pick up the funnier of the two late-night Saturday shows.
But with all this bad news, there is some good news. The CW has asked Privileged for 5 more episodes!!! This is the best show of the season, and now is a good time to start watching this show!!! Please!!!
ABC and CBS have yet to announce the fate of their bubble shows, but when ABC does there are going to be a lot of p!ssed of fans. I am preparing myself for the news that Eli Stone and Pushing Daisies will be well Pushing Daisies.
With all the good shows getting the ax, it blows my mind that NBC picked up Life, Knight Rider and Kath & Kim and ABC is expected to Dirt Sexy Money and Life on Mars.
I will end this post with one of the best things that MadTV ever did Raging Rudolph!!!

According to The Live Feed, Eli Stone’s hope of being picked up for a full season are looking very slim.

The plans also make a full season order for “Mars” pretty likely. “Dirty Sexy Money” is thought to also have a good chance to continue, while “Eli Stone” and “Pushing Daisies” are considered long shots.

Seriously why would ABC pick up Dirty Sexy Money over Eli Stone, who the freak is watching or talking about DSM? I don’t know one person who has seen an episode of the show that declines week by week. And Life on Mars, I tried but yawn. It is on at 10p and it put me to sleep. Then ABC has two gems Eli Stone and Pushing Daisies and those shows they don’t pick? WTF?
Eli Stone is a great, feel good show. It is the only show I like on ABC. Tuesdays are normally a boring day, but Eli Stone just lightens them up! So please please please watch Eli Stone tonight on 10p so maybe ABC won’t kill it. It is bad enough we are losing Boston Legal soon.

Lost will be back on Wednesday, January 21st on ABC with a 3 hour premiere and I can’t wait to find out what happened to the Island and how the 6 will get back to it.
The show is taking over taking over Private Practice’s timeslot according to Watch With Kristin. In fact ABC is shaking up Wednesdays and we will have to wait until next week to find out if Dirty Sexy Money and Private Practice will produce more episodes than the 13 ABC ordered or will both shows will be dunzo. I think Private Practice will move to Thursday after the show it spun off from Grey’s Anatomy. That would explain why TV Guide reported that Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice are going to have multiple crossover episodes.

So please tune into Eli Stone tonight and every Tuesday at 10p for a show that is worth watching!

Filed under: Cellphones

Hunker down and find that tin foil cap, pronto! Privacy advocates, we’ve a new target for you to bang on: Integrated Media Measurement. The 4,900-person media research company is looking to take advertising measurement to a whole new level (or new low, as it were) by embedding tracking modules within cellphones. In short, the module picks up audio from ads and records information about the exposure; in the future, if you were to purchase whatever product you heard about (like seeing a movie that was plugged), it would register a hit and deem you a sucker. As of now, the only testers with these freaky phones are individuals who signed up for this stuff, but you better believe major marketing firms (and TV / movie studios in particular) are perking their ears up and begging to know more.

Eli Stone is a little darling of a show that premiered after the WGA Strike on ABC and slowly found the audience it needed and deserved to come back for a second season. Greg Berlanti (Everwood, Brothers & Sisters) created a sweet show about a lawyer who gets visions like George Michael singing due to an aneurysm he never knew he had. He uses these visions to take on cases and help them beat the odds. Slowly he starts singing a different tune, I mean changes for the better and so does everyone around him. Just writing about last season puts a smile on my face and how many shows can do that? Obviously I am not the only one who has a smile on my face from this show because Sigourney Weaver is making her TV debut on the show tonight, next week Katie Holmes returns to TV with a song and ance number and coming soon Seal will sing on his first non-reality show for Eli Stone! Forgetting the names there is a caring show that has Loretta Divine belting it out like the greats and Jonny Lee Miller dancing up a storm! And I hear he will really be grooving tonight!!!
So if you are a Jonny(Lee Miller)-Come-Lately, you can get caught up on Eli Stone with the below Starter Kit and make sure to catch the show tonight and every Tuesday at 10p!!!

Watch with Kristin got the first look of Katie Holmes in her episode of Eli Stone airing October 21st. All I can say is a good she is not doing a Musical on Broadway because she can neither sing nor lip sync.
BTW Eli Stone is a great show and you should check it out when it premieres on ABC this Thursday at 10p.

ABC is reinventing the huge mini-series V according to Variety. Scott Peters who worked on The 4400 will write the modern day version of the show and I think he will be a good fit!

“Whenever I mention ‘V’ to anybody, they still have a lot of good memories about the original movie and series,” Peters said. “Everybody has that imagery of their uniforms, or the visitor eating a hamster. It’s a science fiction icon and too good to pass up.”
The original “V” served as an allegory for the Holocaust and Nazi Germany. Peters said he won’t duplicate that concept, except that the new “V” will still focus on what happens when the masses have blind faith in their leaders.
In this case, the new “V” will center on Erica Evans, a Homeland Security agent with an aimless son who’s got problems. When the aliens arrive, her son gloms on to them — causing tension within the family. As in the original “V,” several storylines will unfold simultaneously.
But even without the same storyline, the original “V’s” bones will remain: As in the ’80s version, the show will open with an enormous army of spaceships hovering over the world’s major cities. The visitors say they’ve come to help Earth, but their motives are nefarious (in the original, they wanted to steal the world’s water supply).

Hopefully ABC and Peters will do a good job with the new V and they will bring back Robert Englund. BTW if you have never seen V, go out and rent it now!
