It was a very quiet month and I have a sneaking suspicion why (other than the holidays). Because of that I'm making a change this month.

You will notice that there are only 2 cancellations on this list and the reason for that is that I'm changing my 8 month rule to 9 months (so no shows that ended in March will be moved this month).

Using a picture of the #1 show would be too obvious so I just went and through my computer and picked out the first picture I didn't hate or couldn't remember if I used twice already.

Anyway as promised from Wednesday, here is the season average list for 2012. The 2011 and 2010 versions are somewhere on Bourgy (though the easiest way to get to either one is through here). Like those lists of the past I have a few things that need to be noted such as...

* (One asterisk) - 1 or more episodes of information is missing
** (Two asterisks)- 2 or more episodes aired outside of primetime (11pm or later)
Blue- renewed

Something doesn't seem right about ending the year on a Monday. It's like a sign that like the rest of the week, the new year will be backwards as hell (I'm not ready for that).

So here's the last post of this for the year. I almost didn't feel like doing it but I ended up with 10 shows so up it goes. [Full List Here]

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

This is atrocious, Construction paper costs like 3.99 and I'm sure you could get a better result than that.

Forgive me people but I'm in a rush today and I meant to write something a little more detailed. Anyway here are 5 articles about what has gone on with the boradcast networks so far this season.

Instead of using this week to come up with 5 meaningless thoughts on random crap I’ve decided simply to use this as a way to outline all the stuff I plan on posting over the next week and a half (That plus I am far too tired to find and post a picture).

I may put one more of these up next week but the week after that I'm sure I won't even have 5 or 6 shows on the list so I'll probably just skip that week. I will try to post other things over the next 2 weeks so things don't seem so dead around here. [Full List Here]

I just woke up and I heard about this terrible story (which I'm sure if you have access to internet or a TV you can find out what's going on). I hate when people kill each other. I really do but there is nothing I hate more than a person who kills an innocent child (or in this case children). Seriously what the hell is wrong with people (I have other choice words but in all honesty I will keep them quiet because many of them are quite harsh and offensive).

I am starting to get bored with these ratings again but I'm pretty sure it's because I'm well aware that things are slowing down. [Full List Here]

It might have taken 2 redos but somehow there are 10 shows on this list. Now I have to figure out what kind of trickery I can do to get 10 shows on next month's list because right now I only have 2 in mind (and they would have been on this month's list if I hadn't thought ahead). Anyway you can see the list for previous months here (IIRC the June post is almost 100% updated. There may be only 1 or 2 shows that don't have a final decision attached to them).

So this is the time of year where these shows start winding down and going on winter break. Since I can’t be hard-pressed to remember which shows I need to try to avoid writing about for fear of repetition I’ll just say that for the next month the likelihood of me repeating shows will be high (especially for the weeks that include Christmas and New Year’s and for those 2 weeks there may not be 10 shows on this list. I’ll just have to see what happens). [Full List Here]

True story but about a month ago a car crashed into a tree in front of my house around 7am. Car was totaled but the tree was unscathed. I seriously believe the person who crashed into it had to be drunk and of course that person walked away without a scratch.

There were a lot of updates this month (this week in particular) so anything relevant that comes in before the end of the day will get noted in this list. While I'm fully formatting this post you are always free to take a look back at older posts.

Not really a fan of having to do these things on Wednesdays but at least it's still pretty early so that helps too. [Full List Here]

2011 was the year VH1 completely ditched their resolution from 2010 to only air classy (albeit pseudo-classy) programming and simply opted to show fights galore in order to make a grab for ratings. This was also the year where the Sunday/Monday ratings divide became much more prominent. Now all that’s left is to take in the list below or take a look back at the older lists (2004-2006), (2007), (2008), (2009) and (2010).

Another Friday where it feels good to be as far from civilization as possible.

I have a confession to make. I am not a big fan of food. I never have been so that's pretty much why I dislike Thanksgiving (That plus being a perennial pessimistic grouch allows me to do so).

I spent all evening waiting for something that I probably won't see until tomorrow morning so I refuse to wait and hold up this post any longer. [Full List Here]

Another Friday I'm not particularly thrilled over.

I'm not impressed by the numbers of a lot of these shows on this list this week and I think it shows...somewhat. [Full List Here]

It does not really matter that I'm up at 6am posting this. What does matter is that I have a lot to say this month and now I get to have my Saturday to myself. Don't forget to check out predictions of past months because I've made some updates since last month.

I was just about to post this too and it just so happened that I was able to get a nice picture that fits too.

If there’s one thing I hate more than unnecessary spin (especially tonight with this election), it is math. I do not like math and that’s why I gotta do another translation today [Press Release Here].

Yes I'm kinda switching back and forth between election results and the Bulls game but that's not the reason why this post is late (I blame Oxygen...more on that later).

[Full List Here]

If you’ve been coming here for the past 2 months you know I am damn tired of the election process and every miniscule thing it stands for. Now the day of reckoning is nearly upon us and the time has come for us to get back to what’s important…which is not giving a crap about a damn thing that comes out of anyone’s mouths unless it affects us personally or it is scandalous.

So this is my satirical, non-partisan (yes non-partisan because I am well past tired of the bickering and trolling on both sides ruining the comments of political articles) take on the do’s and don’ts of Election Day and the day after.

Friday crept up on me this week. I guess I’ve been too busy to notice (and usually I know when it's Friday so you know that's bad).

As a child I wasn't a fan of Halloween. Now I'm still not a fan of Halloween and the evil in me hopes that there are no trick-or-treaters so I can keep all the Reese's cups to myself  (Don't judge me. They are mine and I was asked to buy them).

Glad this wasn't delayed too long. I really wasn't in the mood to wait around all night for ratings (Besides it's better to miss a few shows and add on to them later anyway).

To say 2010 was a disastrous year for VH1 would be an understatement. This was the year that VH1 premiered more shows than they had ever done in the history of their network and most of those shows were not successful. As you can imagine this was quite a difficult year for me to put ratings together given the sheer number of shows and the odd scheduling moves. As such a lot of shows are going to have incomplete information and for me to detail the circumstances surrounding these shows would be way too much for this one post so for this I’ll certainly take questions about them in the comments. In the meantime enjoy this post and if you’re new here take a look at the lists from previous years (2004-2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009).

There aren't too many notable changes to be made this month so really I'll have more of a headache with formatting than anything (Because its Sunday there shouldn't be any announcements made today and I'm a little strapped for time to make changes so any news that comes in over the next few days will go on next month's list). While I'm doing that you can always look at the lists from previous months. You can also kill time by going over to Bourgy and reading two fabulous Massie recaps of Pretty Little Liars and The Vampire Diaries.

This while pretty much accurate throws so much shade on the West Side (Mostly because the basic Chicago definition is when you live further west than you do north or south and since that doesn't take up very much space nobody knows how to draw that in a map).

I know I haven't posted much lately but I've been working on something very important to me personally and I really need to take that time to finally get it completed. I will try to tear myself away from that over the weekend and early next week to get some fresh posts up around here.

[Full List Here]

I would have posted earlier but stuff happens (Unexpected, last minute but not going to complain about stuff).

In the meantime you can see the kind of denial and blame that goes on every day in Chicago.

I don't feel all that well today and this is up an hour later than I would have liked. [Full List Here]

I have a true disdain for drunk people (Can't make this stuff up if you tried).

Here it is. The October list with 8 new shows and 2 older ones that really begged to be redone (I only choose to redo predictions if the ratings have changed enough to make me feel that something really needs to be said. If a show gets a little better or worse and I'm not compelled to say anything or the show ends before the new list comes around I'm more likely to just let what I said before stand). Of course you can read all of the older predictions and updates here and you can check out the most recent scorecard here.

I think I'm a little too nice with these things. Time to get back to my roots and start getting meaner because these networks all seem to refuse to admit that they made a lot of bad choices this year [Full list here].

I thought about doing a list like this in some form for some time now but I wasn’t quite sure how to do it at first. I thought about doing it in a way that would somehow evaluate my predictions but it wouldn’t be right to do it that way because there aren’t enough shows that have been canceled yet to get a true sense of how my predictions turned out.

Forgive me all. Either I have a weird sense of humor or I'm still under the weather.

As promised I kept my word for today being the day where I would unveil the new look for my site. I chose today to be the day because I started this site on this day 6 months ago.

I will be locking the site tomorrow (October 4th) beginning sometime around 9am. When the lock starts it will stay that way until sometime in the afternoon or early evening while I’m loading in, testing and putting the final touches on the new design for the site. Hopefully this doesn’t bother too many people but I’m giving fair warning now so you’re not alarmed when you can’t get in.

I’ve been somewhat vocal about why this show shouldn’t have been renewed but since we are upon the date when season 2 is due to premiere I figure I might as well make my own post on this (I’ve been sick as hell for the last week and it’s pissing me off so that’s why I have so many posts today). I never watched season 1, I also have no intention to watch this new season so no this post won’t be about the issues I have with the show itself and I’m not going to kill myself watching just to have a post about that. It doesn’t work that way for me.

Yeah I decided to give you all a double with this one today. I won’t hold myself to doing one of these every week but I will do them whenever I see a press release that makes me roll my eyes, like this one.

This press release is about Bravo touting their success with part 1 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion. If there’s one pet peeve I have it’s this adding junk because the added number is the one that always gets thrown around and makes people think the show is bigger than it is. Then they wonder why the hell the show keeps getting renewed when the real average is like 30-50% of the inflated number. Unlike the Oxygen one this one will be much shorter.

I’ve thought about doing something like this for quite a while but I suppose time and the lack of motivation has kept me from doing so.

Anyway a pet peeve of mine is a press release with heavy PR spin. They bother me a lot (sometimes to the point where it is a little bit irrational and unjustified). I’m the kind of person who likes for things to be cut and dry so I need a press release to tell me what the title says it’s going to tell me (I also need them for ratings of hard to find shows).

There are a lot of shows to talk about, particularly broadcast shows, so I had a lot more to say than other weeks. [Full List Here]

I'm not sure what kind of mood I'm in today but it can't be a good one.

I've come to the decision that I will make a small change to this list but it is very small and only affects a handful of shows. This change affects the shows on hiatus. I am defining shows on hiatus as...

This year is going by really fast. Soon the year will be over and I will be posting up all of these 2012 shows. For now I'm still just on 2009 so you can see all the shows that aired then below or you could look at all of the shows from 2004-2006, 2007 and 2008 here.

Premiere Week is upon us and already some shows are doing well, some are doing not so well and others are looking suspect.

I’ve been neglecting this site lately and as much as I say I want to do better with it I’m finding that I choose not to because I am bored with it. Since walking away is not an option, I’ve just decided that I’m going to organize things around here in the hopes that doing so will compel me to start posting more again. Consider this post as me noting all the changes and updates that I have done or are going to do within the next few weeks.

It's a pretty quiet and chill day around here and it will be like that all this weekend but next week....yes next week the work begins.

Yes this is one of these rare weeks where I have this post up before the main post (Only because I didn't need to wait for any shows that aired last night).
