I was a bit worried about their ratings but then I looked at Pan Am, Charlie's Angels, and Body of Proof getting below 2's. LOL

I LOVE THIS SHOW!! I agree that this is a straight out soap opera! Emily is deliciously fun to watch - her planning and commitment is amazing. I love Nolan's reaction when he realized how committed Emily is to getting revenge. Nolan's another character who is fun to watch. He and Emily make a great team. Madeleine Stowe is pretty hot - such a great body!! I never heard of her before watching this show. LOL Christa B. Allen is another hottie! I also like the non-triangle triangle of Daniel/Emily/Jack. Same here. Instead he sent a very nice/romantic video. I'm glad that secret is being kept for now but it will be fun when that video is shown. I'm sad to see the ratings fall but I'm not surprised since most serialized shows usually fail on network TV. I just hope we at least get the full season.

I only saw the highlights of the men's final and it looks like I missed a fantastic match. The rallies and winners look really good. Novak just finished one of the best seasons in men's history. If he wins the Aussie Open, it'll be a "Novak-Slam" or "Djokovic-Slam". Well, a return like that is lucky because it doesn't happen too often. You just swing your racket and hope for the best. Get an American in the finals and ratings go through the roof.

It's such a little thing to me. How do you know they didn't clap for her before or sometime during when the cameras weren't on them? Why is clapping such a big deal anyway? Ooohhh....they didn't clap!!! Snap!!!! I will have to say "Come on!!" to people who think not clapping is a big deal! LOL

I didn't know there was a hindrance rule! I understand why the rule is there but common sense needs to come in play. Serena yelling "Come on," didn't affect the outcome of the play at all. At the very least, they should replay the point because there's no way a player should lose a point in that situation. If it weren't for that play and Serena getting energized for at least a couple of games, it would've been over a lot quicker. If I knew anything about Stosur's play, I would've bet on her! Her forehand is amazing. Also, Serena had a late match (the officials screwed up here again. They should've played the women's semis first, then the men's semis) and a toe injury. Stosur had good underdog money. Damn. I don't see the big deal about Serena's camp not clapping.

*sigh* Why do you give your fans hope, Roger? Was shocked when he went up 2 sets to 0. Then I said he had to win in 3 sets because he's not going to win in 5 sets. Then amazingly, he gets 2 match points in the 5th set, like last year, and he doesn't pull it out. That return shot on Roger's first match point by Novak was amazing. For a guy who's career is on the downside, he almost makes it to the final and almost takes out the guy who's playing the best tennis right now.

Women's final pushed to Sunday at 4pm. And Men's final pushed to Monday at 4pm - I won't be able to watch it. Damn Louis Armstrong Stadium!!! Nadal is so lucky to get the extra day off now.

Sucks for the bottom half the men's side - they gotta play 4 matches in 4 days! And Nadal is in that half. Well, the final was Li Na vs Francesca Schiavone. LOL

And they do it to get better ratings. Most Americans will want to watch an American win, rather than a non-American.

What a match between Wozniacki/Kuznetsova! My girl battled through that second set, down 4-1 in the set and already down a set. I would've been sad if Caroline lost on a day that Ana Ivanonic lost and course Maria Kirilenko losing yesterday. I can't believe the Federer match is going to be played tonight! LOL I hope Federer wins and that it won't be a close one because I do not want to stay up to watch it. Yeah, that Djokovic/Dolgopolov first set tie-break was amazing!

Maria Kirilenko looked very good tonight and I'm not talking her tennis play. Looks like I have another female player to root for and keep an eye on. She double faults twice in the final game. What a way to go out! Damn.

Wow, didn't expect the results in both finals! Congrats to The Joker on his first Wimbledon. How come Nadal couldn't play like that at the French? Grrr. The US Open should be good.

No. He's not getting any younger and will have trouble going beyond 3 sets.

Oh Roger, two sets to nothing. It's frustrating to see him lose like this. He gives you hope and then loses it. I wanted a final four rematch of the French Open. Nadal is injured, so we could see another upset today setting up a possible Djokovic/Murray final.

Not surprised about the Williams sisters. It's hard to come back from injury and then not play before a Grandslam. I'll be rooting for Sharapova on the women's side.

Wozniacki out. She's never going to win a grandslam.

I hope it's Nadal vs Murray and Federer vs Djokovic in the semis. Awesome that Mahut/Isner are facing each other again. I hope it's another epic match. On the women's side, I rooting for Caroline Wozniacki to win her first Grand Slam.
