This looks really good. My issue regarding it is it's on NBC and I just don't do NBC anymore. I'll forget to watch.

I loved SVU and Parenthood and I don't even attempt to watch them anymore.

It definitely has Scandal vibes but it definitely looks much more procedural and less serial.

Has anyone seen this yet? I have watched the first four episodes and I'm enjoying it. While there's certainly a lot being said about Heigl as a person (and it's sometimes hard to ignore), she is an appealing actress and she knows how to sell it. Chris McKenna is also fabulous as Nick Vera (and fabulously hot). I am stunned it took me four episodes to realize this is the same person who plays Harding on THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS laugh.png

The case-of-the-week tends to be interesting and the show has both good supporting characters and a good central storyline but it often buries itself under the weight of how serious, dark and moody it is. The tone is so severe that any light/funny moments tend to be in sharp contrast and jarring.

I don't know what to say about Alfre. She seems so stiff and reserved. Some would call her crap. I know she can do far, far better than this.

      There was the one appearance in '96, but otherwise, that's correct as far as I know.

      Y&R/B&B/GL Vault Updates

        It's working fine now.

        Question for the B&B group: I see @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded multiple seasons from Videoland  (in the folders that are to be put away). They are huge folders and difficult to download so I started breaking them down into months but I realized they are by season so for example, Season 4 spans from March 1990 to March 1991. Now I'm wondering where to actually place them, since we have the Full Episodes section divided by year, not seasons. And most of these seasons we already have in full, so these are duplicates. Not sure if it's necessary to keep the older versions. I could just make another new section for Seasons, so the main folders would be "Behind the Scenes and Interviews," "Clips," "Full Episodes," "Full Seasons," "Music CDs," and "photo archive Marquise" but I'm not sure that really makes sense. Also wondering since we have almost every full episode now if "Clips" can be deleted in its entirety, as it's nearly 300GB.

      CBS moving Murder, She Wrote from Sunday to Thursday was straight up sabotage. Les Moonves knew exactly what he was doing.

      B&B: Moving out of Television City Location

      I sure hope you’re right. The lack of sets is maddening!

      B&B: Moving out of Television City Location

      By Paul Raven · Posted

      I'm hoping that the new studio might have more space, meaning extra sets could be permanently erected. Perhaps the current  set issues are due to limited space available at Television City as it shuts down for the redevelopment. But if more space means spending more $$$ we might be stuck with the current situation no matter where they move.

      Thanks @P.J. If my math is correct, Jordan Clarke runs were 1983-1987, 1989-1993, 1997-end.

      I was/am mainlining both the Dream Season and Season 7 of KL together, since that was the year of their big creative swap. That's the most I can take of Dallas consecutively. But I've been very preoccupied with other shows and work IRL and I need to get back to it after a long break from my Knots binge.

      Wk 1 95/96 MSW moves to Thurs, Cybill takes the Sunday slot. Thurs 8-9pm NBC Friends #3 20.5/33 The Single Guy #6 19.2/30 CBS Murder She Wrote #55 9.3/15 ABC Charlie Grace #74 7.6/12 FOX Living Single # 78 7.2/12 The Crew #80 7.0/11 Sunday 8-9pm NBC Mad about You # 15 14.6/23 Hope & Gloria #35 11.7/18 ABC Lois & Clark # 38 11.4/18 CBS Cybill #49 9.8/15 Almost Perfect #65 8.1/12 FOX Space Above & Beyond (2nd hr of 2hr episode) #51 9.5/15 60 Minutes was #19 so a lot of viewers didn't stay for Cybill. On Sunday, Sept. 24, CBS finished third on the night, and its performance among 18 -49 year olds was worse than it was with the older skewing Murder, She Wrote in the time period last year.  So moving MSW was a foolish move at that point. It was compatible with 60 Minutes and would probably have finished Top 20-25 for the week. They should have left Sunday alone and concentrated on other nights..

      I’ve been watching Knots and FC rather compulsively for a while now. Currently in fall 1983 with both. I had Dallas in there, too, but I am rather shocked at how stale that show gets after Jock’s death. Meanwhile, I can spend hours in the vineyards and in the cul-de-sac.
