Ask Matt | 3/10/2008
Q: I'm sure I can't be the only one who absolutely hates the new ads some networks are running at the bottom of the screen during the whole shows! First we had the annoying network logos, then we had the even more obnoxious pop-up ads during episodes. But this new trend I've noticed recently is absolutely unbelievable. For example, I'm now watching Just for Laughs on ABC (which I recorded) and there's a huge three-line promo at the bottom of the screen: "[Name of Show] season premiere [followed read more
Cheers: ABC's Winning Decision | Cheers & Jeers | 1/9/2008
Cheers to ABC for devoting a half-hour of prime time to coverage of the New Hampshire primary. After the Alphabet scored surprisingly strong ratings Saturday night with the candidates' debates, the 'net happily bumped an episode of Just for Laughs to make room for Charlie Gibson and Co. CBS and NBC, on the other hand, stuck with the People's Choice Awards and The Biggest Loser. ABC offered its own versions, with John McCain as the People's Choice and Mitt Romney as the Biggest Loser on the Republican side, and the Democrats too close to call. Of course, ABC's civic good deed probably wouldn't have happened if not for the writers' strike, but at least something positive has come out of that stalemate.• Read and react to Bruce's opinions on Jon Stewart, Desperate Housewives and more!• Share your own raves and rants about other shows on the Reader Cheers & Jeers discussion board.• We may feature your Cheer or Jeer on TVGuide.com or in TV Guide magazine! read more
