A Few TV Tidbits

  • At the TCA press tour yesterday, ABC announced that Lost will only show new episodes next year during the regular tv season so viewers can follow more closely. What that means is that in the fall (starting October), we'll get 6 new episodes, then have to wait until the new year to see more.
  • Also regarding Lost, J.J. Abrams promises to have a greater presence in writing and directing some episodes, whereas last year he was wholly absent to film Mission Impossible: III.
  • ABC executives pretty much admitted that Desperate Housewives sucked last year so they have fired the showrunner and made the original creator, Marc Cherry, step up to the plate. Of course, I will have trouble watching still, knowing that Eva Longoria looks like this without makeup.
