It's better if money is re-invested in shows that don't pull very high ratings to avoid them being cancelled. That would be a noble thing to do, but hey, I heard chivalry is dead so I won't hold my breath.

No way! Why dump money on shows that don't pull high ratings? If they were good they'd get good ratings... I say get rid of them to make room for new ideas

I wouldn't say all low rating shows are bad, but it's generally true. However there are shows like Arrested Development that never really got advertised well enough and got cancelled, despite being one of the funniest shows ever :(

I personally failed to see the funny in that show... :p

'Big Bang' star 'to miss more episodes'

Kaley Cuoco will reportedly miss further episodes of The Big Bang Theory while she recuperates from a broken leg.

The actress, who plays Penny in the sitcom, was injured last weekend while riding a horse. It was initially suggested that the 24-year-old would only miss one episode as a result of the accident.

Entertainment Weekly reports that her absence is likely to be extended, as Cuoco remains hospitalised in Los Angeles. An insider added that the star would now miss "a few" episodes.

It is not known how the character will be written out for this period.

A Warner Bros spokesman declined to comment.

Most shows that don't pull very high ratings deserve to be cancelled. The networks exist to make money, not to be chivalrous. Hell, once these shows peak and start going downhill, it's only a matter of time anyway. So if you think the networks are going to sacrifice advertising dollars to keep a failing (ratings-wise) show on the air, you're dreaming.

No way! Why dump money on shows that don't pull high ratings? If they were good they'd get good ratings... I say get rid of them to make room for new ideas

With it being such a cut-throat area, a lot of shows aren't given a chance to blossom before they are canned. Remember Jericho's 20 tons of nuts petition? Not every show would pull ratings of BBT or House, but it doesn't mean it doesn't have a strong following that is prepared to support it consistently.

Eliza Dushku, one of Joss Whedon's muse is set to guest-star on the popular CBS sitcom, Big Bang Theory.

"Dushku will guest-star in at least one episode as an FBI agent assigned to conduct a background check on Wolowitz"

This will be the first time Eliza Dushku will be back on TV after FOX axed her sci-fi series called "Dollhouse" after only 2 seasons, despite Whedonverse fans' noble attempt to save the show.

The latest season of Big Bang Theory premieres September 23, 2010.

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
