The Nine: TV Guide News

  • Live From Winter Press Tour: Dancing, Daybreak Scoop! | Today's News: Our Take | 1/14/2007
    ABC president Steve McPherson's in the house taking our questions. Anything you want me to ask him, aside from, "What's the dealio with Daybreak, dude?"* Quick sidebar: I've run into, like, six Lost cast members here at the Ritz in the past 24 hours. Apparently, they're all staying here.* Scoop! Dancing with the Stars returns on Monday, March 19 with a two-hour premiere. Cast TBA.* The remaining Daybreaks will land on ABC.com by the end of February at the latest. "It was an unfortunate... read more
  • I wanted to respond to your ... | Matt Roush | 1/12/2007
    Question: I wanted to respond to your comments about the idea that perhaps the unaired episodes of canceled shows should not be streamed online, and instead viewers should simply "move on." I've yet to have a show I watch sent to this online exile, but I've had tons of shows of which I was a fan canceled with unaired episodes that later surfaced on DVD. Surely, I was better off seeing the entire glorious season of Wonderfalls rather than "moving on" after the handful that... read more
  • Trace, Nine Creator Inks Deal with NBC | Today's News: Our Take | 1/8/2007
    Hank Steinberg, who gave CBS Without a Trace and cocreated ABC's The Nine, has inked a seven-figure, three-year deal with NBC Universal, Variety reports. As part of the lucrative pact, which commences in June, Steinberg will focus full-time on developing new projects for the Peacock. Sources tell the trade mag that the writer-producer's parting with Warner Bros., where he started his series-TV career, was amicable, and that NBC's impressive success with such hits as Heroes and Friday Night... read more
  • Now that The Nine has been ... | Today's News: Our Take | 1/3/2007
    Question: Now that The Nine has been canceled, will Kim Raver return to 24?Answer: No deal yet, but as Jack Bauer is my witness, it will happen. And for the record, ABC insists The Nine has not been canceled. It's merely on "hiatus." (Tee-hee.) read more
  • At the beginning of the ... | Matt Roush | 12/15/2006
    Question: At the beginning of the season you proclaimed The Nine as the "best new show of the season." But after the show failed to lived up to its thrilling and compelling pilot, do you still think it's the best new show of the season? Or would you go with Friday Night Lights, which is as stirring, emotionally raw and absorbing as they come? For me Friday Night Lights has always been the season's best new show. Answer: To be perfectly accurate, I had labeled The Nine as "best... read more
  • Are The Bachelor's ratings ... | Matt Roush | 12/8/2006
    Question: Are The Bachelor's ratings really that much better than The Nine's, or is it just much cheaper to produce? I don't really need an answer, but my point is that crappy shows like The Bachelor keep getting cranked out, and intriguing shows like The Nine are given little chance to succeed. I am so disappointed in the lack of time the networks give to new shows. Some of the longest-running shows in television history weren't overnight successes, yet now some get pulled after two or three... read more
  • Like you, I was blown away by ... | Matt Roush | 12/8/2006
    Question: Like you, I was blown away by the pilot of The Nine. But it slowly fizzled on me, and I think I finally figured out what happened. I think that the writers were trying to write the show as if it had already been picked up for a full second season, and so they were building a lot of context without any real "bang." Do you think this is what happened, and have there been other shows that you think have fallen into this trap? Other compelling shows, like Heroes, build... read more
  • Has ABC pulled the plug on ... | Matt Roush | 12/4/2006
    Question: Has ABC pulled the plug on Six Degrees and The Nine? I thought they could at least give them some more time. I mean this is the network that keeps giving Men in Trees unearned chances! Answer: I might have agreed with you, until I actually sat down and watched most of the Trees episodes that aired on Fridays. (It has just moved to Thursdays.) Trees got a lot better after the strained pilot, although it will still seem too cutesy and precious to some, I'm sure. And how many... read more
  • With The Nine's ... | Matt Roush | 12/4/2006
    Question: With The Nine's all-but-official cancellation, there are very few freshman shows still on my viewing list. Only one, to be exact: The Class. I've never really gotten into the comedy shows that NBC offers, and I find Two and a Half Men too crass for my liking, but this show has caught my attention. It's certainly not the best comedy out there, but it has a likable premise and characters, and the execution is improving from week to week. I just wonder if CBS will stick with this comedy.... read more
  • I just read the bad news that ... | Matt Roush | 12/1/2006
    Question: I just read the bad news that The Nine has been pulled from ABC's schedule. I was really into this show, so this is very disappointing! I felt like it was a bit much, pairing it with Lost on Wednesdays (especially the subpar, confusing episodes this fall), and I wish that ABC would have given it a chance after Grey's Anatomy on Thursday. I thought The Nine had an interesting premise plus great characters and actors, and every week made me want to come back. So what happened?... read more
  • The Nine's Number Is Up... for Now | Today's News: Our Take | 11/27/2006
    Its fate perhaps sealed by the dreadful numbers dialed up last Wednesday night — and not at all bolstered by my wonderful Q&A with Kim Raver — ABC's The Nine has been pulled from the prime-time lineup, at least for the time being. Taking the serialized drama's place, this week at least, is a special installment of 20/20. Hey, at least it's another show with a number in the title, right? OK, I agree — small consolation.UPDATE: This just in from the show's rep: "The Nine is on... read more
  • November 22, 2006: Outside Perspectives | TV Show Recaps | 11/23/2006
    The format of tonight’s episode was wonderful. The way the flashback and present day scenes were tied together was very effective. I loved how as each of the family members finished describing their loved one the scene would switch to the loved one proving that their assessment was correct. As an example: Malcolm really did “take care of his own” by accompanying Franny to her mother’s house. The whole encounter at the mother’s house, by the way, was a bit... read more
  • 30 Rocks On. But What About The Nine? | Today's News: Our Take | 11/22/2006
    What fate is in store for the fall season's two remaining fence-riders? The jury is still out on ABC's The Nine — a show rep has nothing to report on a full-season pickup, and even Kim Raver, in her TVGuide.com Q&A, had no good news to share. As for 30 Rock, NBC has ordered three additional scripts. But will any of those three feature Rachel Dratch? read more
  • The Nine Plus 24 Equals One Very Busy Kim Raver! | Today's News: Our Take | 11/22/2006
    No sooner does Kim Raver miraculously (and barely) survive another crazy day on 24 than she ups and innocently walks into a bank where, whammo — more life-threatening drama, as she plays Kathryn Hale, one of ABC's The Nine (Wednesdays at 10 pm/ET). Alas, her latest thriller is perhaps the only new fall series that has yet to get a full-season order. What's the holdup, so to speak? TVGuide.com asked her about that, the new season of 24 and much more. TVGuide.com: What's going on with... read more
  • What are the chances that The ... | Matt Roush | 11/20/2006
    Question: What are the chances that The Nine won't get canceled? I know it is not doing well in the ratings, but the last few episodes have started to pick up. Answer: We're probably a week or more away from an actual call being made. I'd hate to think its fate rests on this week's episode, since it is being aired the night before Thanksgiving, but no doubt its performance on the last night of sweeps (Nov. 29) will be a factor in analyzing how it's trending. I know that the... read more
  • Can These Shows Be Fixed The Nine Studio 60 and The Class have room for improvement | Matt Roush | 11/15/2006
    This freshman TV class, like many before it, includes instant hits (Heroes, Ugly Betty) that live up to or exceed the expectations of their pilot episodes, as well as shows that keep improving, like Brothers & Sisters, which has lightened its tone as its ensemble comes into sharper focus. But this fall, there's a surprising number of shows that wowed me with their pilots and have disappointed since. And we're not just talking ratings. (The superb but struggling Friday Night Lights is easily... read more
  • Were The Nine's ratings good ... | Today's News: Our Take | 11/15/2006
    Question: Were The Nine's ratings good enough last week to stave off cancellation?Answer: It appears they were. It posted a modest increase, but that was apparently good enough to buy the show some more time. But like vultures stalking a carcass, producers from several high-profile series have been inquiring about the availability of several Nine regulars for possible guest spots. The response they're getting is that The Nine is still going and its cast members are not available. read more
  • How do you think The Nine has ... | Matt Roush | 11/13/2006
    Question: How do you think The Nine has been progressing? In my opinion, last week's was the best episode yet. From the flashback revelations to the mysterious ending, I loved every minute of it. However, I'm worried. When asked what shows people have dropped, many have said The Nine. I can't say I completely blame them after Invasion and Eyes failed in that same slot, but I think they're missing out on the best new series of the season. (Sorry, Friday Night Lights is must-watch for me but a... read more
  • Preview: The Nine's "Take Me Instead" | Today's News: Our Take | 11/8/2006
    Fellow fans of ABC's The Nine (and I know you are out there, and an impassioned bunch at that): I had the chance to screen this week's episode, and it's a good one. (A particularly juicy one, even, for Kathryn-Nick 'shippers.) Without revealing too much, I can tell you that you will see:— A marriage proposal, followed by a, um, "atypical" response— A poker game, hosted by Egan, that impacts the direction of definitely one, perhaps two, and maybe even three lives— A first kiss... read more
  • How come I never see any info ... | Today's News: Our Take | 11/8/2006
    Question: How come I never see any info on The Nine?Answer: 'Cause I didn't want to upset you. But if you really want some scoop, I hear that if the show tanks ratings-wise again tonight, ABC's going to yank it off the air until January. Told you the news wasn't good. read more
