Hope fans of TGIT are happy that all three Shonda Rhimes shows (Grey’s, Scandal and HTGAWM) are coming back for their respective seasons. As for Life in Pieces, fingers crossed for a Season 2 renewal because it continues to have a big boost for a Big Bang lead-in and CBS hopes to have a hit sitcom to breakthrough. What about Mom and 2 Broke Girls? These two should also be in the renewal conversation as well.

BTW, my stern warning to Sg. Grant about what happen yesterday that “he” complain about my so-called bad English towards me and I really don’t freakin’ care. Stop making excuses about grammar because it’s none of your business. #dealwithit :-(

“He” was actually complaing about the fact that what you said made no sense at all.

Are you still whining and complaining? You’re making excuses way too many times and go cry on your mama.

This is why people growl at you. Just let people do their thing. You voice your opinion, they voice theirs. Don’t let people get to you, it’s the internet and everyone has a right to respectfully voice their feelings.

He was kind of harsh. Anyone who has posted her for a considerable amount of time know that Mr. Tran K is ESL and while it takes some effort at times to figure out what he is saying, yesterday Sg. Grant was kind of harsh.

I have anger problems because if someone try to make a rude comment towards me, sometimes my erratic behavior gets the best of me. Don’t know what the BLEEP you people are talking about. If you try to started being so rude and mean to me, APOLOGIZE. Don’t want to see the words ABOUT WHAT?

Nice for Elementary and 2 Broke Girls. And ABC just renewed HTGAWM?? Hmmm.

I don’t know what’s wrong with people??? HTGAWM is awesome right now!!! These last four episodes have been great!!! I certainly hope people are DVRing or Huluing or something.

I “hulu” Scandal and HTGAWM within 24 hours after airing.

The important part to remember is that HGTAWM almost doubles in 7+ day viewing. In fact all TGIT get a huge boost from that. Who watches same day anymore?

And The 100 ratings will continue to fall next week and especially after the two-week break.

So Grey’s ratings went up a little. I guess it shows no one is interested in April or her marriage to Jackson. Last week episode was the lowest rated in years. Get rid of April!! Ratings for that Family show not that far from Scandal. That doesn’t bode well for Scandal.

Idol gets better ratings on Thurs night than everything but Bug Bang yet is cancelled? Why? If it’s budget, get some cheaper judges or former Idols. You could hire 3 for less than what Jlo makes. Hard to imagine some new Fox show will get higher ratings in today’s environment
