Dumont Prime Choices

What a delightful bevy of choices available for viewing on the 15th night of the 2008 May Sweep.

MY THURSDAY PRIME:

LIVE:

8:00 pm Ugly Betty (ABC) -> Betty is hot again, back on her game, fashionably funny, splashily melodramatic.

9:00 pm Supernatural (The CW) -> The best CW series rebounded nicely last week and is back on course.

Find yourself Lost this Thursday on ABC


10:02 pm Lost (ABC) -> I enjoyed last weeks episode with Dr. Juliet saving Dr. Jack, and though I'm worried about what happened to the vulnerable Claire, we all know that noble Charlie is watching out over her and will protect her at all costs.


LATER:
Thursdays are My Night for Movies on MyNetworkTV

8:00 pm – I Witness (MyNetworkTV) -> I've set my home VCR to tape this intrigue movie that stars Mr. Jeff Daniels, Mr. James Spader and Miss Portia de Rossi. Also, this movie is not an encore, as I believe it is a broadcast network premiere.

8:30 pm Scrubs (NBC) -> Tonight is the NBC finale...thank you, NBC, for the many episodes over many seasons of this funny comedy, and looking forward to seeing more comedy as the series hops networks over to ABC.

9:00 pm The Office (NBC) -> Tonight's episode is Job Fair, and I just know from the description it will be a classic.

9:30 pm 30 Rock (NBC) -> Great buzz everywhere you look on this series, which has become NBC's centrepiece of comedy done right. Somewhere from this sitcom a spinoff is coming...I wish it could be centred around the exceptional comedienne, Miss Rachel Dratch, who was featured in so many of the earlier episodes, but who has now been mostly written out of the series.

My Name Is Earl

Thursdays are the toughest:

8:30pm Scrubs [season 7 finale]

10:00pm Lost

Without a Trace

THE OFFICE....9 NBC

LOST.....10 ABC

Ratings Watch: LOST. It is coming off a drop of 1.25mm and .6 18-49 from its return the week before. This was a season low in TA and 2nd lowest in 18-49. While the network may be thinking more about GREY'S, the playing out of this unusual season of LOST is of more immediate interest to me.

CBS: 8:00pm Survivor: Micronesia Supposedly there will be another amazingly dumb move made in tonight's episode. This season has already had some big payoffs in that department.

NBC: 8:30pm Scrubs [season 7 finale] This episode will be a tribute to The Princess Bride which in and of itself makes it worth a look.

NBC: 10:01pm ER An episode promoted as having lots of Neela and Morris (but not together) plotlines: should be good.

8:00pm: Survivor - Turning out to be a fantastic season. Last few tribal counsels have been a sweet surprise. I'm looking forward to this.

9:00pm: Supernatural - Season 3 is lacking what it used to be, but still a favorite of mine. This episode looks freaky, but I can't wait.

Survivor: Micronesia
