Lone Star Alaska

New Season Brings Strong Ratings - for Most

I can not comment much on Lone Star, but I must say FOX must not have been predicting good results for it if they were to cut hit such as House short just to drag in viewers. When DVRs were first becoming popular and, like FOX, NBC was sneaky about it’s show time and ran the Friends finale over by, I believe, five minutes. Because this was not scheduled programming it was not recorded and many fans missed the first airing of it.

Sneakiness does not gain viewers, it tends to put a sour taste is people’s mouth.

I was also thinking about Dancing With The Stars. First of all – season eleven? I remember when this show premiered as a late summer hit. And a soap star won! This season will be interesting, though. I have heard of, for the first time, every contestant except one – I am embarrassed to admit which one. He/She may be terribly popular.

I think Dancing With The Stars is trying to appeal to a younger audience, and it is working; however, why is Bristol Palin on this show? I think the nation would rather see her mother make a fool of herself, oh wait. . . But really, similar to Kate Gosselin, should she not be at home caring as a mother. Please do not misread this, I am all for working mothers, but when you have the money that these women already have do you really need to hop onto the reality show bandwagon? I truly believe not.
