I think I saw a promo for this week's episode. They don't tend to give you much ... it was mostly critical praise.

Yea... I haven't seen them yet, so I was just wondering if there was anything interesting in them?

I read some article on zap2it I think about how ABC is doing well. This is the first time they've had some great shows in a few years. They kept losing in all the ratings and now they're dominating most of them.

The best part is that they are scripted shows, not reality shows. Hopefully scripted shows will make a come back.

I enjoy watching GA and am looking forward to the next episode as well, but to come on this thread and find several post's that are anti BL is just not right. There are millions of fans of that show as well. How would you feel if it was the other way around?

Ngatiara

Mmmm... I wish scripted shows would come back. There are some reality shows that I enjoy, but it's begining to get a bit much with the whole thing.

What's BL?

Boston Legal.

An excellent show that stars:
James Spader
William Shatner
Candice Bergen
Monica Potter
Rene Auberjounis
Mark Valley
and
Rhona Mitra

not to mention quality guest stars week after week.


yeah I'm done now.

Ngatiara

Oh, Boston Legal, right... We haven't had that for years here in NZ. I hardly watched it anyways, too late at night for me.

I just wasn't sure what the BL stood for.

I agree reality shows are getting to the point that it's totally ridiculous.

I can't wait for the next episode hope it's as entertaining and good as the first two

I like that we are getting back to scripted shows. Some reality shows are good, but I agree with elavndrc, it's getting too ridiculous.

Ngatiara

Yea it is... When every night of the week has at least one, if not more, reality shows, you know there's something wrong in the world.

LUSH

I've never watched Boston Legal (although I just adore James Spader), but obviously it has it's fans. I'm not sure what kind of anti posts you're talking about but I've mostly heard wishes that ABC put BL on a different night and leave GA where it is. I think this would be a very smart move on ABC's part...GA is far better suited to fans of Desperate Housewives than BL, as the ratings have indicated. Even though BL follows a huge show like DA right now, I think they would benefit from a night change if done right. GA should stay where it is if ABC wants to maintain it's ratings and keep their hit show.

PPD - I'm not Anti-BL. I don't watch the show ... but I am glad that they came to a fair decision. BL isn't going to move, but you guys just have to wait a little longer. Hell! Wasn't the series in jeoporday of being cancelled?

I am so glad that scripted-tv is outweighing reality. That makes me so happy!

Ngatiara

I personally haven't heard any anti-BL myself... I love James Spader, but we don't get it in NZ that often. I'm glad that they've come to some kind of agreement over it, even it does mean that BL fans miss out on a couple eps. BL will already have a fan base whereas GA is just getting off the ground, and needs a start. If they can work it that they both share timeslots on the same channel, just at different times of the year, it means everything works out for everyone.

its amazing how quickly ABC has managed to turn inself around, they used to be classed as the loser station, and now, they are kicking ass...
