So Timeless ended
with a cliffhanger.
Yes. Season 4 is starting soon.

That's..., ambitious of them.
I wish I could remember the name of the show, but I recall reading of at least one other show thatwas on the bubble that purposely ended the season on a cliffhanger thinking that, for whatever reason, the network would be more inclined to renew them because they wouldn't want to leave fans hanging. Naturally, of course, the network didn't give a shit and cancelled it anyways.
Stupid question but why is Warner Brothers missing from Time Warner
I feel like Timeless is going to squeak by with a second season.

For me, it's Feud, The Americans, American Crime, Review, and Iron Fist. And catching up on January and February stuff, haha. I'm only really caught up on Riverdale, Baskets, Taboo, and Legion, for shows currently airing.
Ah...I know of this. It's V, the remake version.
Quantico and Supergirl going at it!

Not good slides for APB and 24 Legacy

People only watched to see Jack Bauer do stupid shit. Without him, it's just been the dumbness of 24 without anything to look forward to. lol24: Legacy is going to need Jack Bauer to save them. It's about to get a silent clock at the end of its run.

Nice. Show is hilarious.
First, its worth noting what makes the Peacocks play with W&G a bit different than most other such revivals. Until now, TVs recent attempts to restart an old franchise have mostly been of dramas with cult followings. The few comedies that have come back were also shows deemed to have ended too soon, such as Arrested Development and The Comeback. (Netflixs Fuller House and Disneys Girl Meets World are arguably exceptions, though both were led by kid actors now grown up, essentially making them different shows.) By contrast, W&G was, at its height, a massively successful broadcast sitcom that ran for eight seasons and whose 2006 finale attracted nearly 20 million viewers. It was not a niche show; it did not end its run too soon. In past decades, W&G was the type of sitcom whose cast would maybe get together for a 10- or 20-year prime-time reunion special, or perhaps a one-off TV-movie event. What NBC and creators Max Mutchnick and David Kohan are doing is different: Theyre bringing back the whole gang, about a dozen years later, for a new adventure on the same network that aired the original.
The Peacock doesnt need to make dozens of episodes of the new Will & Grace to make the effort financially viable. It will be able to monetize these new half-hours almost immediately by selling them to a Netflix or Hulu. While this doesnt guarantee NBC will make a ton of money off its new venture, it certainly makes profit a possibility in a way that wasnt the case a decade ago. Whats more, given how well X-Files did for Fox, and the upscale (read: advertiser-friendly) audience the original series boasted when it first aired, NBC should be able to command strong ad rates for the revival. This, in combination with a streaming sale, means NBC probably isnt betting the farm here.
Meanwhile, beyond the financial aspects of the new Will & Grace, the fact that the show is the first big multi-camera comedy in decades to get a series revival (with the original cast) by a broadcast network means other networks will be closely watching to see how it performs in the ratings. NBC no doubt used the same logic as Fox execs when mulling revivals of X-Files and Prison Break: Given how dramatically same-day viewing of TV has fallen over the last decade, and how tough it is for new shows to get noticed during the age of Peak TV, an already-established series from the pre-Netflix era has a significant advantage over a totally new show. Ratings for X-Files dipped after the first few episodes, but overall, the series ended up being one of 2016s biggest TV events. Sitcom ratings, particularly on NBC, have declined to the point now that its very likely barring some new breakout Peacock comedy hit the new W&G will be one of the, if not the, top-rated sitcoms on the network during the 2017-18 season. If so, we could be in for a small wave of 1990s- and early 00s-sitcom revivals. We may finally find out what ever happened to the doctors from Scrubs, the kids from That 70s Show and everyone from The Office.
Just finished the first season of The 100 and that was pretty great. Made me wonder about multiple characters and setting up some interesting threads and developments for Season 2. I'm pretty excited to get started on it.
But first I must catch up with The Originals. 15 episodes and then I'll be ready for Season 4 next month.

TVD is worse than I remember, but Damon is as fun as I remember, so not sure how to proceed.
The Sunday 9 PM premiere of HBOs limited mystery series Big Little Lies, drew 1.1 million linear viewers and a total of 2.1 million viewers, factoring replays and viewing on the HBO Go/Now platforms (including Mondays digital viewing).
The male-skewing 'Crashing' did OK, drawing 540,000 linear viewers at 10:30 PM and 763,000 for the night.
