I apparently get 6 new episodes of The Office starting April 10th

I get a full 16 episode season of LOST which would have only been 8 episodes had the strike went on much longer

I hadnt heard so you may be right, the last I heard if the strike ended soon we may get a full season...Either way, 16 or 13 is better than 8

Yes, Lost Season 4 will produce 5 more shows in addition to the already completed 8. The three "lost" ;) episodes from this season (16 was the original goal) will be covered in seasons 5-6.

Worst part is you have to wait a month before the final five shows air.

Looks like the final episodes of Scrubs will be filmed for eventual straight-to-DVD release. So I'm OK with that-as long as they get made, I'm cool.

And Masturbating Bear is back on TV. So that's great.

Amen. Mark Harmon as a Marine. Only thing better would be Mark Harmon as a Marine wearing a Sooners shirt*.

That would be teh awesome.


What?! The Sarah Connor Chronicles is being axed?! Oh, yeah, but they'll subject us to repeated seasons of useless tripe reality shows, ad nauseum. There is no justice in the world.



*Harmon trivia: He played football at UCLA, as a starting QB. He almost went to OU, he was a big Sooner admirer. His dad, Tom, won the Heisman and the Maxwell in 1940 while playing for Meatchicken.

I like to be edumakashunal as well as boring. :P

I was on set Sat, Sunday and Monday. There won't be a show this year, but they're gearing up for a major overhaul next year.

They're going back to work ASAP.

Stay tuned for CTU: The Rookie. It will air on the web, on VOD and eventually on TV.
