Ox Notes: June 25, 2009
Networks are suffering this summer, particularly ABC. Tuesday's premiere episode of The Superstars was watched by less than 5 million people. The supposedly funny new episode of Better Off Ted that followed didn't even get 2 million viewers.
I hope things are faring better for two of the only shows I make a point of watching during the summer, both of which happen to be on ABC on Wednesday nights: Wipeout and I Survived a Japanese Game Show.
Also on TV last night were new episodes of So You Think You Can Dance and Top Chef Masters.
If you'll in the St. Petersburg, Florida, area this weekend, stop by the Millennium Dancesport Championships to catch a glimpse of celebrity judge Maksim Chmerkovskiy in action.
CBS announced its fall schedule, including a two-hour premiere of The Amazing Race on Sunday, September 27.
Here's Melissa & Ade's Rumba from last night's SYTYCD:
