Bottom Of The Barrel

Status of tv

I just saw an advertisement for Survivor the other day and I had honestly had no idea it was even still on [and in it's 14th season]. That got me reminiscing about the origin's of the show [and reality tv as we know it today] and wondering if there are any good shows that will come from this summer's tv wasteland. Note: although the networks do not generally consider the summer to be a good time for new programming, I suggest they use this tine when there are no more new episodes of 24, Lost or Heroes to give us something decent to watch therefore building brand loyalty. This summer we have a few interesting shows to choose from, such as:

Traveler [Drama] ABC
National Bingo Night [Game Show] ABC
On The Lot [Reality] Fox
American Body Shop [Comedy] Comedy Central
Flash Gordon [Sci-Fi] Sci-Fi

Also we have the return of many shows including Studio 60, America's Got Talent, THe Loop, Last Comic Standing, Resume Me, THe Closer, Monk, My Boys and the The Biggest Loser.

So maybe the summer isn't such a wasteland after all.
