LOST Review: The Incident, Season 5 Finale
Posted by David Torres Categories: Prime Time, ABC, Lost,
Well, the season finale of Lost is finally here and now the wait begins for the final season next year. So what happened? A lot! But before we get to that, I would like to rate this season finale up against previous Lost season finales. I wouldn’t say it was the best out of all the season finales we’ve seen from this show. I think “Through the Looking Glass,” which was the season finale of season three, is hands down the best the show has ever done. Still this episode was very good and gave viewers a major revelation that we’ve been wondering about for some time. By the end of this episode, the question all of us will be asking is where do we go from here? How will the story continue? How much has changed? Let the speculation begin, but first a more detailed review of season five’s two-part finale “The Incident.”
Spoilers…..........................................................

MONDAY 5/11)
- Gossip Girl (CW, 8pm): “Serena’s run-in with the police upsets Lily.” She only expected her daughter to be cuffed and shamed, not frisked and strip-searched.
- Weaponizers (Discovery, 9pm): Season premiere. “An RV takes on a shuttle bus, after the teams equip them with rockets, machine guns and medieval weapons in this reality series featuring vehicle face-off competitions.” The only thing missing in this equation is Jason Statham.
- Two and a Half Men (CBS, 9:30pm): “Alan and Chelsea bond, and their time together gives Charlie a needed break to do the things he loves doing on his own.” A wingman can help you score a woman….and keep her busy too.
- Medium (NBC, 10pm): “After Allison slips into a coma while working on a case, her spirit transfers into the body of a middle-aged man (Jeffrey Tambor).” The sexual reassignment process was much easier than the one Alexis Arquette went through.

Catching up on missed ABC programs will soon become that much easier.
Thanks to a deal that is still being finalized, programs ranging from Lost to General Hospital will eventually be made available on Hulu. ABC, owned by Disney, will now become the third major network (alongside NBC and FOX) to allow ad-supported webstreaming of their shows via the site.

Wednesday Ratings: Country Experiencing Obama Fatigue
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America’s Next Top Model, American Idol, Lost, Ratings,
Looks like President Obama wasn’t what viewers had in mind for sweeps. Last night’s umpteenth press conference was seen by 29% less people than the March 24th version. Although FOX was able to beat the other networks for its airing of Lie to Me, the strategic move was probably a moot point. American Idol would have given the network a win anyway.
8pm
- Lie to Me (7.9 million, 2.4/7 in 18-49) did the same as last week.
- NBC’s coverage of the presser (1.6/5) drew in 6.7 million.
- ABC’s political hour (1.6/5) attracted 6.1 million.
- Approximately 6 million watched the president on CBS (1.5/5).
- America’s Next Top Model (4 million, 1.8/6) remained steady.

The closer Top Model gets to its finale, the bigger the curiosity factor grows. Cycle 12’s audience improved from last week’s numbers and even beat ABC’s 8:00 demos.
8pm
- Lie to Me (7.9 million, 2.3/7 in 18-49) didn’t do as well as last week’s Bones.

If Lost and American Idol both go up, that can only mean one thing: CBS was airing a repeat.
8pm
- A special episode of Bones (3.0/9 in 18-49) raked in 10.8 million.

MONDAY 4/13)
- Chuck (NBC, 8pm): “When Chuck’s father is abducted by Fulcrum forces, Chuck attempts to rescue him by putting his faith in a most unlikely person—his double-crossing ex-girlfriend, Jill (Jordana Brewster).” Well, she is fast and furious.
- Dhani Tackles the Globe (Travel, 9pm): “Dhani visits Spain’s Basque region to learn about jai alai, a fast-paced ball game that’s been called “ballet with bullets.” That’s one performance of The Nutcracker I would probably sit out.
- Roommates (ABC Family, 9pm): “Hope’s father makes a surprise visit and tells her to come home because he’s unhappy with her job situation.” Doesn’t he, like, understand how hard it is out there? He’s so lame.
- 24 (FOX, 9pm): “Jack’s daughter returns.” Because the worst day in Daddy’s life just wouldn’t be the same without her.

Wednesday Ratings: The Unusuals Does the Usual
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Music, Prime Time, Reality, Sci-Fi/Horror, ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, The CW, America’s Next Top Model, American Idol, Lost, Scrubs, Ratings,
Despite a flurry of promotion for the new series, ABC’s The Unusuals did what most shows do in that time slot: not much of anything. The premiere lost 18% of its lead-in’s audience and made it that much easier for FOX to dominate.
8pm
- Lie to Me (8.4 million, 2.5/8 in 18-49) fell by 600,000.
- The New Adventures of Old Christine (7.3 million, 2.1/7) and Gary Unmarried (7.3 million, 2.2/7) finished with similar numbers.
- Scrubs (4.7 million, 1.8/6) lost 300,00; Better Off Ted (4.2 million, 1.7/5) dropped 500,000.
- America’s Next Top Model (3.7 million, 1.7/5) was down by 200,000.
