PopWatch Confessional TV Jukebox edition: What songs do you wish you'd heard on TV this year?

13 hours ago | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

As I wrap up another season full of moving, sassy, romantic, and knee-slappingly funny music moments at TV Jukebox, I’ve been excited to single out some amazing tunes by new-to-me acts: Brooklyn’s sultry-spooky duo Ms Mr, soulful piano balladeer Sara Jackson-Holman, L.A. poppers Milo Greene, and singer-songwriter Adam Agin, to name a few. That said, I realized after taking stock of the nearly 300 songs I name-checked this past season that there were a few surprising omissions.

Perhaps these songs were too big or (more likely) expensive for their own good. Then again, that didn’t stop »

Reality TV pioneer Mike Darnell leaves Fox: 'It has truly been an amazing ride'

24 May 2013 3:43 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

In one month, Fox is losing their reality TV trailblazer. President of Alternative Programming Mike Darnell, who has been with the company for 18 years overseeing such series as "American Idol" and "So You Think You Can Dance," is packing his bags. Fox made the announcement on Friday afternoon, joking that Darnell was "voting himself out" of the network.

Darnell released the following statement: "I'm extremely grateful that Fox has offered me a new long term contract (and anyone who knows me won't believe I'm saying this), but I've decided it's time for a change," said Darnell. "With my current deal ending in June, and having been here for 18 years (kind of a record in Hollywood), I had to make a decision: either stay (and basically admit to myself I was going to retire at Fox...not a terrible choice) or leave and try something new. I've been in 'Reality' since »

Fox reality chief leaving after 18 years

24 May 2013 2:55 PM, PDT | EW - Inside TV | See recent EW.com - Inside TV news »

After 18 years, Fox’s legendary reality chief is stepping down.

Mike Darnell, a colorful provocateur who pioneered the genre, will leave the network at the end of June.

For nearly two decades, Darnell’s shows have generated ratings, headlines and occasional outrage. In the late 1990s, he helped kick-start contemporary reality TV through a series of attention-grabbing specials, such as World’s Scariest Police Chases, When Stunts Go Bad, Close Calls: Cheating Death and, of course, When Animals Attack! (and don’t forget the exclamation point). As the reality genre began to take shape in the wake of CBS’ Survivor, »

Fox's Top Reality Exec Mike Darnell to Depart Amid Major American Idol Overhaul

24 May 2013 1:46 PM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »

It looks like American Idol‘s summer makeover is only the first step in a larger shakeup of Fox‘s reality-programming lineup. Longtime reality chief Mike Darnell is stepping down after 18 years on the job, the network announced today.

“I’m extremely grateful that Fox has offered me a new long term contract (and anyone who knows me won’t believe I’m saying this), but I’ve decided it’s time for a change,” said Darnell, in a release. “With my current deal ending in June, and having been here for 18 years (kind of a record in Hollywood), I »

Mike Darnell to Exit Fox, Ending Era for Colorful Exec

24 May 2013 1:41 PM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »

An era has ended at Fox with Friday’s news that Mike Darnell is stepping down after 18 years as a top programming exec at the network.

Darnell confirmed he would step down from his post as prexy of alternative entertainment at Fox when his contract is up next month. Darnell and Fox positioned the departure as his decision, but his departure comes on the heels of “American Idol” falling to record lows and a mixed track record for the network in unscripted programming of late. On Thursday, Fox’s most recent competition reality skein, “Does Someone Have to Go?,” bowed to a weak 1.3 rating/4 share in the adults 18-49 demographic in the 9 p.m. slot behind “Hell’s Kitchen.”

Nonetheless, Darnell has been a pillar of the network for nearly 20 yeas, and his departure promoted a comment from the big boss, News Corp. »

Where Was Nashville's Alien Invasion? Mad Men's Dopest Trip? Chicago Conundrum? And More Qs!

24 May 2013 10:12 AM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »

We’ve got questions, and you’ve (maybe) got answers! With another week of TV gone by, we’re lobbing queries left and right about shows including Orphan Black, Bates Motel, Nashville and Criminal Minds!

1 | Was Division’s “death” on Nikita as satisfying for you as it was for us?

2 | Was it a tad idiotic of Orphan Black‘s Cosima to leave Delphine — whom she suspects might be her monitor — alone in her apartment? And who else wants to borrow Alison’s music collection?

3 | With Saturday Night Live‘s Bill Hader, Fred Armisen and (possibly) Jason Sudeikis heading for the exit, »

Ratings: Hell's Kitchen Rises, Save Me Scores NBC Low, Hannibal Dips, Old Bang Tops Night

24 May 2013 9:06 AM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »

A repeat of The Big Bang Theory came out on top this first out-of-season Thursday, dominating all comers in total audience (with 8.84 million viewers) and edging out Hell’s Kitchen for the nightly demo win (with a 2.2).

Among Thursday’s premieres, a double-pump of Anne Heche’s long-shelved Save Me averaged 3.1 mil and a 0.7, marking NBC’s lowest rated series launch since last summer’s Saving Hope. Leading out of sitcom repeats, bubble drama Hannibal (2.74 mil/1.0) rose 11 percent in audience yet ticked down a tenth from last week.

The 5 “Sytycd” Routines I Still Think About

23 May 2013 12:09 PM, PDT | The Backlot | See recent The Backlot news »

So You Think You Can Dance is both one of the greatest reality series ever and, in its own way, a difficult show to remember. The talent level on Sytycd is so high that it’s easy to forget that phenomenal bits of entertainment occur every week, multiple times in a single episode. You can forget that you wept at a Sonya Tayeh-inspired number because of a sexy samba that immediately followed it or a bizarre Bollywood number that preceded it. You’re actually inundated with great TV, and you’re too fallible to recall it all. That’s a crazy level of quality.

And that’s also why I compiled this tiny list, a quintet of performances that is still on my mind no matter how much other talent and choreography tear through my screen.

1. Alex Wong and tWitch get into your mind.

'American Horror Story' and 'The Big Bang Theory' lead Critics' Choice TV Award nominees

22 May 2013 11:10 AM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

The third annual Critics' Choice Television Awards features what is becoming the awards' signature mix of no-brainer and under-the-radar nominees.

So while "Breaking Bad" and "Homeland" are nominated for best drama series, so is "The Americans." The best comedy nominees include "The Big Bang Theory" and "Louie," but also "The Middle."

"Big Bang" and "American Horror Story: Asylum" lead the nominees with six apiece. "Parks and Recreation" and Sundance's miniseries "Top of the Lake" have five each. There were a couple of surprise omissions too: "Mad Men" was shut out of the best drama nominees, and of the cast only Elisabeth Moss scored an acting nomination. Ditto for "Modern Family" on the comedy side; Sarah Hyland was the only cast member nominated.

The Critics' Choice Television Awards are set for June 10. "Parks and Rec's" Retta will serve as host.

Here's the full list of nominees:

22 May 2013 10:12 AM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »

This week’s So You Think You Can Dance — which focused on auditions from Los Angeles and Austin, TX — spanned from the adorable (boogying toddlers!) to the grotesque (the sudden emergence of “bone-breaking” as popular style).

When I’m done, hit the poll and vote for your own faves — then expand on your thoughts in the comments! (p.s. I know, I know…I left out the lovely »

TV ratings: 'Dancing With the Stars' finale down from fall, 'The Voice' drops too

22 May 2013 9:56 AM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

Fast National ratings for Tuesday, May 21, 2013

The season finale of "Dancing With the Stars" scored its best ratings of the spring cycle on Tuesday, but the show couldn't quite match the finale of the "All-Stars" season in the fall.

The "DWTS" finale may have stolen a little bit of thunder from "The Voice," however, as NBC's show had its lowest 18-49 rating for a Tuesday show this season. The "Grimm" season finale was on par with its recent performances, and "So You Think You Can Dance" was off a little in viewers from last week's premiere but held steady in the 18-49 demographic.

ABC averaged 11.55 million viewers and a 7.5 rating/12 share in households Tuesday night. NBC (7.8 million, 4.9/8) beat CBS (7.5 million, 5.0/8) by a little bit to take second place. Fox came in fourth with 4.6 million viewers and a 2.8/4, and The CW (674,000, 0.4/1) was well back with a night of reruns.

“So You Think You Can Dance” Auditions: Austin-tatious

22 May 2013 9:38 AM, PDT | The Backlot | See recent The Backlot news »

Sytycd‘s Los Angeles and Austin auditions were full of enlightening, revelatory performers (and their children, in some cases). We learned so much that we could forgive the strange, not-completely-justified inclusion of guest judge Minnie Driver, who wouldn’t be my first choice in Best Supporting Actress nominees to judge these dancers. (Bring me Lauren Bacall, dammit!) I did chuckle when Minnie claimed her hotel was haunted. Because Minnie really believed it. And that’s a funny, zany thing to think, my dear.

Here are the five greatest performers from the two-hour extravaganza. The first one here wasn’t an official auditioner, but I think you’ll agree it deserves a plane ticket to Vegas or some other isolated desert land.

5. Mary’s Hair, the most dynamic dancer of the evening

‘Voice’ Tops ‘Dancing’ Finale as NBC Takes Tuesday in Demos

22 May 2013 9:04 AM, PDT | Variety - TV News | See recent Variety - TV News news »

NBC, with a lineup as varied as you’ll see in primetime, captured Tuesday in key demos as “The Voice” beat ABC’s finale of “Dancing With the Stars,” which logged its lowest-rated finale to date. CBS, usually at or near the top on Tuesdays, aired all repeats.

According to preliminary national estimates from Nielsen, NBC opened the night a winner with its NBC News special “Devastation in Oklahoma” (2.0 rating/6 share in adults 18-49, 8.2 million viewers overall), and followed that up with “The Voice” (3.1/9 in 18-49, 10.0 million viewers overall), which was the night’s No. 1 show in 18-49 and 25-54 (4.0/10) but declined for the fourth straight week for a Tuesday season low. And closing out Tuesday, “Grimm” (1.7/5 in 18-49, 5.2 million viewers overall) was on par with last week and up a tick from its first-season finale on a Friday last year.

Lowest-rated 'DWTS' finale ever

22 May 2013 8:56 AM, PDT | EW - Inside TV | See recent EW.com - Inside TV news »

But Kellie Pickler was so popular!

In the end, though, the allure of the pixie-haired hoofer wasn’t enough: Tuesday’s two-hour finale of Dancing with the Stars only earned a 2.6 rating/7 share in adults 18-49, down 21% from last year’s spring results (3.3/9 on May 22, 2012) to become the lowest-rated finale in the franchise’s history, according to Nielsen. Since the show averaged 14.9 million viewers, ABC came in first for the night in eyeballs but second in the demo behind NBC, which was buoyed by The Voice.

Speaking of which: NBC’s singing competition, which earned a 3.1/9, was down 11 percent versus »

Finale Ratings: Grimm Improves on Season 1 Closer, DWTS Down 21 Percent Vs. Year Ago

22 May 2013 8:38 AM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »

NBC’s Grimm boxed up its sophomore season with an audience of 5.22 million viewers and a 1.7 rating, steady week-to-week in the demo and up a tenth from its freshman finale (which aired on a Friday).

Leading into that, The Voice (10 mil/3.1) was down 5 and 11 percent week-to-week.
