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.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update

      Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update by Taras Buria Today, Playground Games released a big Forza Horizon 6 update with a long list of fixes, patches, and balancing tweaks that the studio promised earlier. Version 375.327 is now available on Steam, Microsoft Store, and Xbox, offering users improvements for AI, audio, design, performance, road discovery, upgrades, visuals, online play, and more. Some of the most notable changes in the Series 2 update include rebalanced drivatars, particularly their difficulty and race start behavior. As such, the game should be more balanced on higher difficulty levels, and AI cars should not shoot out when the race starts as if they have rocket boosters. Speaking of difficulty, developers nerfed Drag Tires physics for a more expected and realistic behavior. They are no longer the go-to option for record-breaking times in road racing, and all leaderboard entries with drag tires will be removed. Completionists will also be glad to get a new feature that lets you see road discovery percentage in each region, which should make discovering all roads easier while keeping it quite challenging and interesting (I spent quite a long time finding the last road). Festival Playlist is also getting some much-needed fixes, including patches for bugs that allowed completing Seasonal Jobs ahead of time or where weekly challenges would not unlock for some players. Developers will retroactively give reward points to all who could not complete all challenges due to these bugs. Other changes include changes to Horizon Play progression so that it is easier to reach Level 100, audio improvements on lower-spec devices, fixes for visual glitches, including pixelated smoke, and more. Developers also addressed the currently non-working Eliminator, an online mode gamers used to farm credits with a Hummer EV exploit. Playground Games plans to re-enable it soon. As a gesture of goodwill, players will get a free McLaren Sabre. Those who used the exploit will not be banned, but developers plan to roll back credits to a maximum of 10M for all who farmed credits using the exploit. You can find the complete changelog for the latest Forza Horizon 6 update here.
