Over on TV Squad, I saw that ABC is dropping Eyes and 8 Simple Rules. That's too bad because 8 Simple Rules has had some laugh-out-loud episodes in the two years since they lost John Ritter. All three kids are great actors and where will I get my David Spade fix? Oh yeah, Capital One commercials and Joe Dirt II.
Eyes never had a chance, but it was a great show -- like Las Vegas with a brain and slightly less hot characters.
Luckily, and you might think I'm kidding, John Stamos' Jake In Progress was renewed. Jake's friend Patrick is one of my favorite characters on television (up there with Rose from Two and a Half Men and Chloe on 24). Plus they have Ian Gomez and Wendie Malick.
The real shocker today was that Desperate Housewives was renewed. I'm a total fan, obsessed with DH trivia and I was really worried that I wouldn't get my weekly fix of the zany adventures of Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, Miranda and all their crazy Star's Hallow neighbors every Friday night this fall. Maybe they had a write-in campaign or something. Good for them!
