Good catch Evie.

What was I thinking? Sci-Fi having a decent show and NOT breaking it to make a season last forever!

The new episodes of EUREKA that are kicking in gear in July, are the back 1/2 of the 3rd season they started last year.

So that does make the 10 count correct, but still, we have got be having some issues with this crap where they break up their popular shows like this.

Thanks Evie.

About Eureka: Isn’t this the 2nd half of season 3? If so then 10 eps would be about right.

Hey,
I watch American Idol AND Chuck.
It fine to defend your favorite show But there is no need to get personal.
The networks of “Brain dead america” just renewed Dollhouse and Chuck,
along with a handful of other shows that were on the chopping block.

You know Bruce, if Subway is smart (and I think they are), they should do some kind of promotion during the show. Keep it related to Chuck. I don’t know, maybe a special Chuck related Subway card from it’s website that allows you a 10% discount on purchases. SOMETHING to keep viewers coming back. I love Chuck, it’s one of my favorite shows, but I feel that NBC is really bailing on it. This is one show that could have been a staple for them if they really worked on it, but they stuck to trying reality crap and losing.

BTW, I can’t believe that anyone watches AMerican IDol, much less CARES about what happens on a show that obviously is fixed by advertisers. I believe America is brain-dead.

That’s a great point you make Sean about CHUCK’s time frame. Then again, maybe it wouldn’t matter where it airs then!

CHUCK fans need to unite and pitch this show to their friends and family.

Sadly, the best way to help promote a show, is to support their sponsors / advertisers in some fashion… crickets… I can’t believe I just said that.

I’m headed off to wash my keyboard (mouth) out with soap.

But sadly, it is true. Just remember, timing is everything…

If you want to support Subway, hit them hard AFTER the show starts so they can relate the numbers to the show! Timing is everything true believers!

Chuck would probably do better on Friday than it does on Mondays at 8. That is the time that House is on, and I am betting they are losing a lot of viewers to that show.
