I was not sure for copywrite issues regarding other sites. Last thing I want is for the site to have issues over something I posted.

If you link to someone's social media post, that's on them. As long as it isn't links to where you can watch movies for free etc. Short BTS clips like this, which was clearly meant to be shared, isn't a problem. ;-)

Allthough, as much as you can, try to find the original post and link to it, and if where you found it isn't the origianl poster, still give proper credits to where you found it. It's not a big deal for me, but I think it's a nice gesture to people who run fan accounts and share what they find with the rest of us.

Numbers continue to fall; I’m beginning to wonder whether viewers prefer the feuding Griffiths.

Another 50K viewers gone (and a slight drop in the 18-49 group):

I will have to do a Good Sam binge when I return!!! Right after I see the finale of the Expanse!

Just now spotting this, Marie, and jumping in to shriek how much I love The Expanse. (I would apologize for going off-topic but it seems like a favor tbh)
I normally don't enjoy sci-fi, especially series, but I love this show. Even better, so does DH. We decided to re-watch it before viewing the last season, which seemed like it would be tedious--but it was maybe even improved by a second viewing.
Next Con: oye, Beltalowda!

FWIW, maybe the One Tree Hill (OTH) “reunion” was a relatively good idea, since viewership actually increased for the first time since Ep. 4 (“Attachments”). :woot

Granted, it’s still nowhere near the number of viewers the Pilot had; however, IMNSHO, it’s a move in the right direction….

Here’s an update (although it was dated before Keep Talking aired).

So…still up in the air….

Down 20,000 viewers this week…and it’s Part 1 of a two-parter….

Sadly, Ep. 10 had the fewest viewers yet, 1.87 million—a drop of 260,000–although the 18-49 group remains at .2.

I’m getting worried….

Here’s another take, from www.telltaletv.com, on I Thought I Lost You:

(Given some of the complimentary statements, I just hope it’s not “too little, too late”.)

Okay. THis may be pretty optomistic, but . . .

In my latest issue of TV Guide, page 41, they list Good Sam's season finale, with the statement:

Will we see another blowup between the show's father–daughter doctor duo? Or will Sam get to wrap the medical–family drama's first season with a smile?"

That really gives me hope that there'll be a second season. I really changed my mind about the show when the damn bickering stopped. nuke.gif

Have you seen ep. 11 yet? There were several “indirect bonding” moments there, IMO.

I suppose there weren’t enough of Jason’s fans who knew about—and tuned into—his directorial debut. 😱😭

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_Sam_(TV_series)

Worst numbers yet…and it wouldn’t surprise me at all if CBS continues to “promote” The Griffith Technique by showing clips from older eps.

It’s as if TPTB at CBS changed their collective minds about this show after Pilot aired, and decided GS should be a sacrificial lamb, instead of a show that MIGHT benefit from a different time slot.

I know some people don’t care for the format, writing, etc., but this is tame, compared to some of the “nighttime soap operas” that aired when I was younger, so count me in the #SaveGoodSam “camp”.

OK…out of breath…for now…. :soap
