welcome to part 2 of our story tellin' you about tv
do ya watch much tv... or are you the kind that just surfs,
duude...
yesterday we began by telling you how,
next season there's gonna be a lot more sit-coms
abc's modern family has shown that perversion and laughs
are not mutually exclusive as long as you have these too
SOFIA VERGARA GIVES HER SHOW A BOUNCE IN THE RATINGS
and abc's the middle has been building a steady climb
to the top of the comedy ratings with great acting
from patricia heaton and continuously consistent
comedy writing, which is consistently creative
shows also remaining consistent are american dad,
two and a half men, even without the warlock
and cbs's how i met your mother
two new comers are making waves, cbs's broke girls
and fox's new girls which is where the tv sit-com is headed
it's what comedy insiders call the b-com
you'll will see more and even more shows that feature strong,
sexy and highly motivated young women taking on
everything from their father-in-laws to the law itself
using the chip on their shoulder as their prime weapon
- this all started with kathy griffin, by the way...
'everybody's looking to fill out their schedules with more
comedy, and that means mean girl comedy'
says joshsy sores, a partner at recreation entertainment
'when you look at what's happened in the syndication market
and where the money's being made, there have been
$1 billion assets created from modern family and
the big bang theory... numbers in drama
don't come anywhere near those
not csi or csiny, or ncis, or ncisla, or svu or even blue bloods
and while cable networks are competing aggressively
with their own edgier original dramas, they've been slower
to embrace comedies, which 'creates a massive imbalance'
sores said
tomorrow, part three
and maybe more pictures of big girls too
