It doesn't surprise me. Last night's show was boring as all hell. B&S needs to get its act together and FAST. If it keeps up like this, I could really see this being the show's last season. |

To be fair Mason, DH was also down nearly 2 million and IMO it was the best episode of the season. I think it's because not a lot of people realised it was new, hopefully. B&S really needs an overhaul and hopefully killing Tommy off will be the shot in the arm. I kind of felt like some of last nights episode was rewritten, because spoilers said that Kevin made out with Julia while hopped up on pills, but it happened in a dream. Also the whole biological father thing really makes me think Tommy will die and Kevin and Scotty will raise Lizzie |

That's true, but who knows if ABC will even care? LoL I really, REALLY hope Tommy is killed off, because that's just what the show needs. |

I think the show wants to kill him off, but the network is apprehensive. It looks like it was not a good night for ABC. Maybe a lot of people called it an early night since today was the first workday in a while for some, Haha. Who knows? I heard B&S was bad, but I didn't see it. I think it will come back for one more season next year. |

True about ABC, but Berlanti just signed a 5 year 10+ million dollar deal with ABC and they already cancelled two of his shows. (DSM, ES) so I don't think they'd get rid of his baby. Plus is gets great critical praise and award nominations. Ya know, sfter he started working on all three shows, Brothers & Sisters started to suffer. I am confident that Feb-May will be awesome B&S like Season 1 and 2 Here's his latest shows set for this coming fall. THE RETURN (ABC) - Drama about the impact on the world (including the White House) when aliens land. MYSTIC CONFIDENTIAL.COM (ABC) a family drama focusing on a how a blog impacts the lives of the members of a small town.
I know! seriously! I can't even stand to look at him anymore. I'd rather watch Scotty tan than see Tommy on my screen. Edited by Rick, Jan 5 2009, 07:45 PM.

Those new shows sound weird and crazy! LOL! I think B&S will be better in the Spring too, but I fear what the new shows will do to the show like DSM and ES did. |
