How Well Do You Remember This Season of Ugly Betty?
BuzzSugar —
[image] Ugly Betty's ratings have been down this season, but I've really enjoyed watching (and recapping) the show this year. The Gio-Betty-Henry triangle finally ended, and I've liked watching Betty get back to focusing on her career and navigating the city on her own. The show's move from LA to New York has also lent it some added authenticity and pizzazz. I know lots of you out there watched along with me, so let's see how closely you were paying attention!

TV Tonight: Scrubs Returns With Courteney Cox

[image] If you're a Scrubs fan, there's one important thing to remember about tonight's premiere: The show makes its debut on ABC, not NBC, its previous longtime home. So tell your friends and check your DVR: The Sacred Heart doctors have, as the ads have been saying, found "a better place to operate." The general consensus seems to be that in its new (and likely final) season, Scrubs is better than it's been in years. And that's good news, because if the show is really wrapping up this year, I'd love to see it happen on a high note. The first couple of episodes are going to be a little less ...

But weird Denny scenes aren't the only thing tonight's episode has in store for us. It also means the introductions of two new characters: Dr. Arizona Robbins (Jessica Capshaw), a pediatric surgeon, and William (Eric Stoltz), a death ...

It is apropos that Lost would launch a new season the day after Barack Obama was sworn in because fans of both are very similar in they rely a lot on hope. Hope that the most inexperience president ever to take the oath of office doesn’t get overwhelmed.

Being a man of science, as opposed to faith, I am cautious of both actually happening while hoping they don’t. The new season started like every season before ...

Buzz In: When Do You Give Up on a TV Show?

This week's news about Ugly Betty going off the air for a few weeks while ABC launches a comedy block seems to have a lot of people afraid that ABC is giving up on the show — and, more importantly, that viewers will too. The way many shows struggled to come back after the writers' strike is one sign that people often give up on shows that are off the air for too long.
Of course, that's only one reason people break up with TV shows. Maybe a show starts to explore plotlines you find ridiculous (an argument I've heard a lot in favor of ditching Grey's ...

TV Tonight: Grey's and Private Practice Cross Over, Sort Of
BuzzSugar —
OK, first of all, I need to dispel a myth about tonight's much-advertised Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice crossover "event": the two shows don't do much crossing over tonight. Said crossover is coming; in fact, we even see a couple of Private Practice characters head for Seattle by the end of the evening. But if you're hoping to see Addison storming around the halls of Seattle Grace and making life awkward for Meredith, well, this is not the week.
That said, technically the "event" does start tonight: Something happens that forces Addison to seek out help ...

First Look: Amber Tamblyn, Adam Goldberg in The Unusuals
BuzzSugar —
ABC's The Unusuals wants to be a different kind of police drama. The show, which will premiere April 8 at 10 p.m., centers around a ragtag bunch of NYPD detectives, each of whom is, well, a little bizarre.

On this week's Grey's Anatomy, fallout continues from Derek's surgical mistake a couple of weeks back.

This episode got pretty intense at times; are you ready to talk about it? Just .
Here's one thing we know for sure about Derek: He likes to fix things. And here's another thing we know: He hates making mistakes. He probably does believe, deep down, that he's a surgical god. And, like Meredith tells Addison, losing all those ...

TV Tonight: Ugly Betty

Ugly Betty's had some rough patches lately, so I was thrilled that last week's episode felt like a return to form. The show gave us drama, over-the-top fashion, and the most ridiculous birth scene I've ever seen on television — in other words, exactly what I want Betty to be.
This week's episode is ominously titled "Things Fall Apart," but I know at least one good thing is carrying over from last week: Betty gets another YETI storyline. This time, she's assigned to study the Mode budget, and it appears that she turns up some disturbing info about the ...

It's especially dramatic where the Daniel/Molly and Willi/Connor relationships are concerned, because I've been feeling for a while now that they need to be more than just lovey-dovey .

Is Jason the Worst Bachelor in History?
BuzzSugar —
OK, everyone. Deep breath. Last night's post-finale hour of Bachelor was pretty insane and, in my opinion, pretty evil. I think it's clear to all that Melissa didn't see Jason's dismissal coming, and her emotional reaction was genuine and heartbreaking.
Jason claimed he was just following his heart, that he made a mistake, and he was trying to make things right. But I think a lot of folks out there are wondering this morning why he felt the need to put Melissa through all of that on national television. It makes Jason seem pretty cold and calculating.

TV Tonight: Better Off Ted
BuzzSugar —
Better Off Ted, which premieres tonight on ABC, is a smart and sarcastic comedy that I think will be a solid counterpart for Scrubs in the 8 p.m. hour. It's also very quirky, which I can imagine being interpreted as "very weird," which means I wouldn't be surprised if it struggles in the ratings and gets canceled early. But luckily, Ted is the kind of show that can make you laugh even if you don't want to get too attached.
Set at the fictional Veridian Dynamics (which makes nearly everything you buy . . . except maybe cows), the show stars Jay ...

Grey's Anatomy Rundown: Episode 18, "Stand By Me"
BuzzSugar —
When something horrible happens to you, do you stare it down? Or do you run away? That's the question on this week's Grey's Anatomy, as Izzie deals with her diagnosis and Derek remains in the woods, unable to face the hospital where his last mistake took a life. I loved the way this episode brings the characters together in botched but earnest efforts to support each other. Ready to talk about it? Just .
Oh, Izzie! This week, her decision to confide in Cristina — and only Cristina — starts to backfire. Cristina's just doing what she does best: She collects ...

Private Practice Rundown: Episode 19, "What Women Want"
BuzzSugar —
I feel really lukewarm about this week's episode of Private Practice. On the one hand, there are surprisingly cute moments, including the budding friendship between Charlotte and Violet. On the other hand, there's a lame, super-crazy patient who I stopped caring about halfway through the episode.
And then, somewhere in the middle, there is this flirtation between Addison and Noah, the doctor married to Addison's pregnant patient. Last week I was annoyed that Addison would enter into a cheating type of relationship again, given her history, but now I'm mostly weirded ...

It's not like TV remakes are anything new (holla, 90210!). But a show's creator getting another shot at his or her own failed series is practically unheard of. That's why I'm curious about Cupid, the new — well, and old — series from Veronica Mars creator Rob Thomas that starts tonight on ABC.

Grey's Anatomy Fans: Should Izzie Live or Die?
BuzzSugar —
How young we were and how little we knew just a few short months ago, when we were reacting with shock and disbelief to the idea that Katherine Heigl's Izzie could really be killed off Grey's Anatomy. Now, after ghost sex and a serious diagnosis, I, at least, had come to believe Izzie's death was inevitable. But perhaps not: Heigl recently said she doesn't know if Izzie lives or dies and she'd stay on the show if Izzie survives.
So, folks, I'm throwing it to you: Do you think Izzie should beat those five-percent odds? Or should she die (presumably ...

Which, we think, is a pretty big deal, but it’s not ABC’s fault. Hulu and Nielsen Video Census need to work things out so that it gets counted, otherwise this information, at least in terms of the RANKINGS isn’t worth much. But, the data outside of the rankings is still data. For instance, I think there is value in the unique viewer metrics. The number of streams by themselves however is also pretty worthless, at least in terms ...

Private Practice is back and more intense than ever. The patients in this week's episode are actually more compelling to me than the doctors' lives — save for maybe Pete's little romance with Idina Menzel, and that's just because I like Idina so much.

Scrubs Could Return For a Ninth Season
BuzzSugar —
I was so excited when ABC picked up Scrubs from NBC last year, because I thought that would give the show an opportunity to go out with the kind of finale it deserved. Well, that finale is just a week away now — and there's word that it might not be the end of the show after all.
This isn't the first time we've heard Scrubs renewal buzz, but it's starting to seem more serious, considering that ABC and Executive Producer Bill Lawrence are reportedly talking about budget and which cast members could return for a possible ninth season. Zach Braff has said ...

For one week only, ABC Thursdays are back to normal. Ugly Betty makes its return from its Spring hiatus — just in time for Private Practice to air its second-season finale.
When we left off with Betty, the Mode staff was hard at work on the annual sex issue. In tonight's episode, we learn the issue was a flop, leaving Mode in dire financial circumstances (the economy is everywhere!). Conveniently, Betty's boyfriend just happens to be, y'know, loaded.

Just a few short months ago, I was all excited about the multitudes of awesome Winter TV shows and Spring TV shows heading our way. And yet, somehow, I haven't fallen in love with as many of them as I thought I would. I'm still watching Castle, I'm determined to stick with Parks and Recreation, and Better Off Ted has become a favorite, but many of the others are stacking up on the DVR or falling off my radar completely. So I thought I'd ask: As most of these shows head toward their finales in the coming weeks, which midseason shows are you ...
Amy Brenneman Says Violet's Baby Is in Danger Tonight
BuzzSugar —
In general, babies don't have the easiest time at Private Practice's Oceanside Wellness. So will Violet's baby survive tonight's season finale? My recent chat with Amy Brenneman confirmed there's some merit to the question.
It's been rumored that Violet's mentally unstable patient, Katie, will return tonight, blaming Violet for her own unsuccessful pregnancy and seeking revenge. Meanwhile, we still don't know if Pete or Sheldon is the father — nor do we know if Violet will accept Sheldon's marriage proposal. Lots of questions for just one hour!

Whose evil idea is it to make Daniel hop for his supper (supper, in this case, being millions of dollars invested into Meade family magazines)? Let's just say Betty's boyfriend's mother is just the tip of the iceberg in that messed-up rich family. Meanwhile, it's brought to ...

Scrubs has always been creative with its music, and on Wednesday's maybe season finale, maybe series finale, the show knocked it out of the park once more. As JD prepares to leave Sacred Heart one last time, he envisions a possible future for himself, filmed in old-school home movie style. Playing behind the montage is Peter Gabriel's take on "The Book of Love," originally recorded for the Shall We Dance soundtrack.

Grey's Anatomy Rundown: Episode 22, "What a Difference a Day Makes"

The 100th episode of Grey's Anatomy has all the elements of a classic: there's a big tragedy that brings a lot of the doctors together, a few sweeping speeches, and a wedding that makes me cry despite lots of logical leaps. It's not my favorite Grey's of the season, but if a measure of a good episode is whether I was a weepy mess by the end, then "What a Difference a Day Makes" is certainly good. Ready to talk about it?
