Giving You The Business

TV NEWS: @Extant_CBS, @BobsBurgersFOX

Extant

The #1 network among Orcs ages 18-49 just threw Extant in the trash after two very low rated seasons. I never finished season 1 because I hated it. I heard they retooled the show for season 2, but as Danimal says, “If it involved retooling, it was garbage to begin with.” Meanwhile, Fox renewed Bob’s Burgers for 2 more seasons. Do you think Halle is at In-N-Out right now eating her feelings, or taking Gabriel Aubry to court for something she thinks he did?

TV NEWS

Since November sweeps is upon us! This is that magical time of year when the networks cancel the crap they rolled out in September to make room for new crap they are going to roll out in January. Here’s a sampling of what’s been shown the door so far this season.
