I'll be trying Life, Cane, Journeyman and a couple others, but I've got no real hopes for any of them.

Most of the stuff looks terribly derivitive or just plain stupid.

I'll give Journeyman a chance only because I think Kevin McKidd is a great actor. He's what made Rome extremely compelling...him and that fantastic Polly Walker and James Purefoy. wink

Now, now, dont forget Ray Stephenson.

And yes, McKidd is the only reason Im checking Journeyman out, too.

I might try "Journeyman". High concept is generally bad, though.

"Life" and "Chuck" have both received 'more episodes' orders...

Good, I've really gotten into Life. Damien Lewis is outstanding in it.

Life just got a full season order, and so did Chuck (although it may not mean that much with the strike threatening to murder the season).

Rumours that "Reaper" was through are denied by CW...

I gave it a few episodes but after a while I just couldnt stomach it. Waaay too cutesy for its own good, IMO.

The writer's strike might actually help a few of these shows; the networks have the opportunity to rerun the episodes.

Yeah. Except NBC doesn't have plans to rerun Life right now. Which makes absolutely no sense. Last week they ran a two part episode. Monday it was 1st in 18-34. Wednesday it was again, and had gained 14% viewership over the previous Wednesday! That's a big jump. It means new viewers from Monday stuck around.

So what does NBC decide to do with that momentum? ... Not rerun the show?!

angry WTH is wrong with them? I know they're pushing Chuck hard and that's fine, but Life has a small but really adamant fanbase already, which has been remarked by a number of news outlets and which NBC has to be aware of. It seems like they just don't know how to handle the show and it's pissing me off.

I'm liking the show "Moonlight" half way into its first season, anyone else like this show?
