About the Author
Walker completely obliterated expectations, wow. Who would have guessed the show would do so well?
Both All American and Walker exceed expectations.
I watched the premiere last night. I was pleasantly surprised.
Anyone that paid attention to the heavy advertising really. Never in my life have I seen a CW show pop on while I was watching catching up on the news. I was surprised to see it on Fox and worried it would be some version made for women. Honestly I think my gut was right. Gave it a chance and i imagine others did. Personally far from impressed, feels like it doesn’t know what it wants to be but that’s just me. We’ll see if it retains it.
SVU still doing well after all these years. I think The Chase can be considered a bit of a hit.
I agree, but I think it’s a time-slot hit.
Tonight on NBC, THE BLACKLIST resumes its season.
Thank for the heads-up. ;-0
