REAPER TAKES ANOTHER:ANGELS GOES TO HEAVEN

In what can be described as a no brainer, ABC axed Charlie's Angels after another low rated episode. This giant misfire was doomed from the start. First, hire prettier women who don't look like a strong breeze will knock them over. Second, embrace what you have: a cheesy T and A show, not a serious police drama. The film did well because it was so over the top (the second one went WAY over the top for many people). Remaining episodes will air then it's off to remake heaven joining equally awful remakes like Bionic Woman and Knight Rider.

This fall season is getting killed.

REAPER CRIPPLES ONE, CIRCLES ANOTHER

The Grim Reaper gave a death blow to struggling comedy How To Be A Gentleman being banished to Saturday night after a second low outing. It's production was stopped after nine episodes meaning that for all tense and purpose, the show is mortally wounded and will die after the remaining episodes burned off on a night when no one cares. Rules on Engagement, still on somehow, will replace it.

Charlie's Angels is at death's door as is Harry's Law and Nikita, all of which are doing worse week to week. As someone who watches Nikita it has suffered from an ill advised time slot move and some rather slow episodes so far this season. Harry's Law was awful from day one but somehow built an audience in it's time slot. So what did NBC do? They moved it to the most competitive night on TV where it has been getting clobbered regularly. Brilliant. Whoever is running NBC and CW need to go. At this rate CW will be gone in a few years and NBC will be taking its place.

Stay tuned for who goes next.

REAPER STRIKES AGAIN: H8R AXED

With Charlie's Angels still hanging on somehow, now comes word that CW has killed off H8R. Not a big surprise there as the show was awful. Who wants to give these pseudo celebrities any more face time? CW's Ringer looks to be losing steam fast as now it is the lowest rated show on the network, just behind Nikita and Supernatural (two shows I like).

Stay tuned far more death from the Reaper.

THE REAPER STRIKES AGAIN. BLOODBATH FOR NBC

NBC is having one of the worst fall seasons ever. After the Playboy Club bit it this week, now comes word that Free Agents is gone after posting a 1 share last night. The show was awful, as was the Playboy Club. No surprise on either actually. Reruns of the hit Whitney, picked up for a full season, will air in its place. Brian Williams new news show will air in a few weeks Mondays at ten. For now Prime Suspect will take over repeats in that slot. After tonight, will the Reaper strike again with ABC's low rated and horrifically bad Charlie's Angels? Let's hope so.

Only Fox and CBS are doing well right now with the CW, ABC and NBC struggling to survive. How can you find such middling talent for these shows? Oh that's right, you refuse to hire outside writers, like yours truly, to work on anything so you get the same hack writers over and over again. Inbreeding is killing Hollywood. Look at the sad state of directors coming out of there right now. Ninety percent of the new directors suck and suck bad. The best movies are starting to come from overseas in places like Japan, Thailand, Norway and France. We're putting out Jack and Jill and Abduction. To be honest I like Adam Sandler but his new film looks grotesque in so many ways.

NBC should fire everyone involved in this season for picking the worst new shows possible. Expect Grimm to hit a similar fate on sure to lose Fridays when it airs in a few weeks. They have Sunday football and Thursday between 9 and 10 and otherwise they are at the bottom of the pile with only worse off CW finding out that all female programming doesn't work. NBC needs to jettison Biggest Loser and The Sing Off and invest in quality programming. And by that I don't mean another rip off of Mad Man or the Walking Dead or whatever AMC show catches your fancy next time. They're cable. You're not. Think bigger like Fox did with Terra Nova, doing very well in it's second week. And the CW needs to grow some balls literally. Get some sitcoms already and aim for male audiences as well. ABC needs to end DWTS, and all the lady doctor shows which seems to be all you air anymore. Stay far far away from Tim Allen, as his new show will sink like everything on NBC. Networks make better choices.

Hire me. I'm available.

REAPER STRIKES FOR REAL. TWO DOWN TODAY

In sad news, the reaper took out Charles Napier and Steve Jobs. Jobs was the genius behind Apple. Napier was the great character actor from the original Star Trek, Airplane and the hulk scream in the beginning of the TV show. I didn't know that either until today in his obituary. Farewell fine sirs. You will be missed.

THE REAPER STRIKES: PLAYBOY BUNNIES SKINNED IN RATINGS MASSACRE

The Reaper has claimed his first victim of the year: The Playboy Club. Yes it was ill advised. Yes it was hyped as titillating and raunchy but turned out dull and not sexy. Most of that is due to the Right wing Christan groups whose views are more rigid than the Puritans. Tone deaf from the start, why make a show geared toward male viewers and then make it a female oriented soap? No one that is because it is guaranteed to spell disaster, just like this show did. And while Amber Heard is hot as hell and deserves a better show than this, can we, as a group, stop hiring Eddie Cibrian already. The man cannot act. CSI had enough of him after one season as did the viewing public. Bye bye Playboy Club. You will not be missed by anyone.

Next to go is a toss up between two lousy shows Free Agents or Charlie's Angels. Harry's Law is another to go soon. As a matter if fact you could throw a dart at just about anywhere on NBC or ABC and get a show doomed to fail. Who will the Reaper strike next?
