Just like previous years, CBS has the fewest holes to fill. This year it will only premiere 4 new shows. There are also only a few changes in the overall lineup. Here is a look at their new schedule: CBS FALL 2012 SCHEDULE *New programs i »»
I complain all the time about Glee and how terrible it has become, but if there's one thing it has over Smash, it's the ability to make the viewer have an opinion, good or bad. With Smash, everything kind of just passes by. Eileen and her boyfriend, »»
After a record number of votes, the Final Four has ended. There was plenty of back and forth leads in both matchups. But in the end, we are left with one #1 seed facing off against an unseeded show. The battle between #1 Modern Family and #2 The »»
I fell behind on television again, so the reviews are a day late.The Killing continued the inquiry into tattoo guy and the mob. They actually catch the tattoo guy and find his drawing of Rosie. Another red herring? Could the show have been fixed? I g »»
The Elite 8 round voting has ended and there is still one Cinderella show that has made it to the Final Four. But it was fight to get there for sure. The rest of the final four features two #1 seeds and one #2 seed. That means another #1 seed went do »»
The fourth round voting has ended and one Cinderella show keeps on piling up the wins against top-ranked competition. The rest of the bracket looks about what was expected. There are 8 shows left. Let breakdown what happened in this past round. Th »»
The third round voting has ended and there was only real one MAJOR upset. But it was a big one as one of the #1 seeds went down to a unseeded show this round. The ABC Region saw all of its top 4 seeds make it to the round of 16. Breaking Bad, The »»
The second round voting has ended and a handful of the top seeds were upset by non-seeded shows including one #2 seed! The ABC Region only had 1 upset, though, and that was just the #8 seed Sons of Anarchy barely losing to South Park. The remainin »»
The first round voting has ended and there were no real upsets. A couple of close calls for some of the top 32 seeds, but in the end, all of them are still in tact. There were lots of closer matchups between non-seeded shows, though. Lets break down »»
It’s that time again! It’s the month of March and that could only mean one thing…time for another Inside Pulse TV Tournament, while you drink green beer! The biggest and most talked about tournament during “March Madness” season is st »»
NCIS is generally a light, fun show, but it knows how to do serious as well. When it does serious, it doesn't do the played up false tension that's so prevalent on Castle. And when it does do the tension, people actually get hurt as we've seen n »»
Next Tuesday's NCIS will feature a two-episode storyline that involves a military plane crash. The plane was carrying the caskets of fallen Marines and this will prompt Gibbs to flashback to his days as a Marine. “There’s a huge crime scene, »»
Gibbs and Fornell are always a fun duo, especially when their love lives come into focus. They're dysfunctional people, perfectly fit for each other, but beneath the humor is a melancholy feeling. Things get weird when their shared ex-wife wants thei »»
Come on...The first three-fourths of "Thirst" is a snore, with little investigating and tons of commenting on Ducky's love life. We get to know Mary and she seems to be a wonderful person until the writers spring the trap. She's a psycho! That explai »»
After all the father drama that has happened on NCIS, you'd think the writers would have more in their bag of tricks. Unfortunately not. Even the great Lily Tomlin can blot out the silly idea that McGee also has major problems with his father and the »»
I get what Steven Binder is going for in "Restless," but it's complete inconceivable. We're supposed to believe that Tony has believed for years that he was the one who hung people up on flagpoles. After he tries to apologize to the victim, he rememb »»
With the nature of Tony's new mission, which spanned several months and was hidden to the rest of the team, it was necessary for the writers to use a framing device and create an excuse for Tony's memory, and the episode turned out fine. The scenes o »»
Whereas Monday night's 2 Broke Girls got a sizable boost from its lead-in (Two and a Half Men), Fox's New Girl does something more impressive. »»
CBS has best the top rated network overall for the last decade. The majority of their new shows become "hit" shows and stick around longer than they would if they were on any other network. Therefore, CBS didn't have a lot of holes to fill, but they »»
I like that NCIS can go for more complicated plots stretched out over a few episodes, and the writers know not to overindulge in pathos (I'm looking at you, Castle). But let's be honest--the plot made little sense. This was Cobb's plan: (1) Leave EJ »»
The premise of "Swan Song"--Gibbs coping with Mike Franks' death--seemed a little implausible to me. I think it's just me, but I found it really odd that Gibbs would just call Mike and Mike would show up like that and then get killed. As for the deat »»
NBC won with The Biggest Loser (2.7) and The Voice (5.7). The Voice not only didn't fall from last week's amazing premiere, it actually went up!CBS was second with NCIS (3.7), NCIS: Los Angeles (2.9), The Good Wife (2.4). The Good Wife posting its fi »»
This week's episode brings us to Tony's past after his former partner is found dead, seemingly killed by the P2P killer. This dredges up the past--how Gibbs meets Tony and why Tony left the department--and we largely see the same guy we do now. As fo »»
"Dead Reflection" has a case with Mission Impossible masks which sets up the background for everything else going on. With EJ's team coming in, the port to port killer still on the loose, and some thorny relationship issues to work out, there's quite »»
With five episodes left in the season, things are starting to heat up, with the return of E.J. Barrett, the introduction of Ziva's CIA boyfriend Ray, and a serial killer who remains uncaught. "Two-Faced" is short on investigation and instead plays on »»
As fun as NCIS is, I sometimes wish the murders would actually be rooted in dangerous criminal enterprises instead of the familial problems. "Tell-All" begins with the death of two people who read a tell-all book about an operation to nab arms dealer »»
Even though NCIS is good in its natural state, solving murders of Navy personnel linearly, I like the occasional change of pace when the writers go out of their comfort zone and try something new. "Out of the Frying Pan..." is exactly that kind of ep »»
"One Last Score" feels like an NCIS episode, with the usual charm for the character interactions and an interesting case as well. I make this point because the episode is directed by Michael Weatherly who obviously isn't a full-time director. He probably won't be directing too much, but at least he knows what to do with NCIS. »»
Well that was boring... "One Last Score" is basically an episode of the writers trying to write about technology they have no idea about. They don't really get what MMORPGs are about (certainly not "high scores"), and the computer talk is both unimaginative and unrealistic »»
Now that's how to do an opening in medias res! Quick, shocking, and not entirely explainable. Unfortunately, the initial excitement over what could happen in the episode boils into a pretty typical plot about the daughter staging her own kidnapping. Not helping at all, loose pieces of dialogue about her friend and professor make little sense. »»
