BM/WW IR sightings on TV

[qaz1]

More random Whiskey Cavalier tonight. The black nerd led the team tonight. Had a brief video chat with his hot spy gf. She called him boo lol. That's it.

Edit: She showed up at the end for kissing and a brief threat to shoot him lol. Nice ending

Watching this week's episode of "New Amsterdam" (Season 1, Episode 18). Is Janet Montgomery pregnant IRL or something? It's weird that they've quietly temporarily written her character out of the show in the 2nd half of this season. The only thing that makes sense is she's gotta be pregnant IRL & is taking time off from the show.

I do believe that's the case. [Enter ill-advised comment about noticing her weight gain here]

That was a GREAT guess!


Janet Montgomery, star of 'New Amsterdam' and
'This Is Us,' reveals emergency C-section

I'm glad her and the baby are doing okay.

I had no idea when they sent Janet Montgomery's character to rehab that they were writing her character off to Hiatus. I was expecting the show would follow her journey in rehab every episode & Jocko Sims' character would regularly visit her. How they handled it was weird. The next episode after they sent Janet Montgomery to rehab, is the episode where Jocko Sims' storyline is him finding out out she's in rehab & goes to visit her. He shows up to the rehab, but we never get to see them interact at the rehab because the very next episode he's back at the hospital & mentions that she didn't want too see him. We haven't seen her in an episode sinc

The way they made a big deal about him finding out she's in rehab & going to visit her and the very next episode they drop the storyline with 1 dialogue line mention, I don't think it was all the way originally planned like that.

I just read this article from a couple weeks ago: http://www.pajiba.com/tv_reviews/wh...-bloom-janet-montgomery-on-new-amsterdam-.php


Anyway I watched this week's season 1 penultimate episode last night. Janet Montgomery returned for a couple of scenes in the episode & she definitely looked like a woman who recently had a kid. Her outfit looked like it was trying to hide the baby weight. Her storyline in the episode made it seem like she's being written off the show for good. But according to this other article from Yesterda, she's definitely gonna be back in next week's season finale & in season 2: http://www.pajiba.com/tv_reviews/what-happened-to-maxs-wife-georgia-goodwin-on-new-amsterdam-.php

I haven't been watching this show in weeks because of how slow it's been going. But are they still playing with the IR arch between her and Floyd?

About that....

Spoiler

No, I think that ship has sailed. The black doctor is in a serious relationship with the hospital's black attorney. This last episode, he was bringing her home to meet his family.

That's why I think they're just going the route of deep male-female friendship with this one. He has definitely made it clear that their friendship is very important to him.

@qaz1 Might be right. But seeing how the first half of the season played out, it's obvious Janet Montgomery's pregnancy fucced up whatever the writers had planned out for that love triangle in the 2nd half of the season. We still gotta see how it plays out in the future to be sure.

@ColiBreh1 All of that sounds right to me.

 

[Shulz021]

On Station 19 there's a potential pairing between Sullivan & Hererra

 

[ColiBreh1]

Coincidentally, the current lead in ABC's Station 19 is Jaina Lee Ortiz, who co -starred in
Morris ' last show, Rosewood. The producers have hinted at the eventual beginning of a relationship between her and Boris Kodjoe.

More "will they won't they" lol! I swear these writers need to come up with something new

I always found her to be very attractive. Glad to see her on another show and possibly in another IR relationship. Now I have to watch just to see her. lol.

Yeah, she's a looker.

Her character is presently seeing someone. Little by little, however, she's catching feelings for the new fire station captain, her widowed supervisor (Boris).

So... love triangle? lol.

What did I JUST say about these played out writers!? Lol

I was with you until that last line LOL. I'll go back and binge if they actually get together. And I'm talking real relationship, not just a one-time smash and go lol!

Oh for real? @SilverSmith are you keeping up with "Station 19"? When I would have "Station 19" on in the background during it's 1st season last year, Jaina Lee Ortiz's lead character was romantically involved with another dude.


EDIT:



LOL, Sounds about right. I'm with @qaz1, if they get together I'll tune in.

Promo for next week's season 2 finale of "Station 19":

 

[ColiBreh1]

I'm reading the headlines on TVLine.com right now. CBS announced a bunch of renewals & new series pick-ups Yesterday, but no news on "Fam".

Good news for all of you Katherine Heigl fans out there, she has been cast in a family comedy pilot for CBS. Her character's husband is played by Malcolm Barrett.

Maybe CBS will put this show along with Fam, and God Friended Me on the same night and make it a real IR extravaganza.

There's no news on this sitcom "Our House" being picked-up either.

Much like The Innocents it's in limbo. The networks aren't saying anything about them. I don't understand that when they do that.

Today is the Friday before Network upfronts, so the decision on "Fam" is gonna be announced today.

I read that Fam was their second lowest rated new comedy, with the lowest being that Damon Wayans Jr. show. I'm not expecting good news. Terrible shame SMH

Not so sure about that...
Fam averaged over 5.5 million viewers even beating out in that time slot fan favorite The Good Place over at rival network NBC a couple times. Their HOUR long crime drama SWAT which comes on AFTER Fam average a lower 5.2 million viewers and they renewed that.

So if that is the case then their ceiling is too high and they are not allowing tv shows to build off of a pretty good foundation like Fam had with that average rating.

Well this wouldn't be the first time a solid show was cancelled too soon lol.

Here's where I got my info: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/l...-guide-whats-new-renewed-canceled-far-1204461

Here's the part about Fam....
Fam | The midseason multicamera comedy created by Corinne Kingsbury and starring Tone Bell and The Vampire Diaries fan favorite Nina Dobrev never really caught on. The series got off to a rocky start after showrunner Bob Kushell was fired after he allegedly used inappropriate language on the set of the midseason comedy. Despite a marketable star and being owned in-house (and hailing from prolific producer Aaron Kaplan's Kapital Entertainment), Fam finished the season as CBS' second lowest-rated comedy.

Apparently I was wrong before, Fam was the lowest rates comedy overall, not just among new comedies. All that said, I'm still REALLY hoping to see it renewed.

Edit: You also mentioned The Good Place, another favorite of mine. That shows ratings haven't been great either. But I found this article, which discussed how it may be more popular than traditional ratings show.

Fam's ratings vs a show on another Network doesn't matter, Especially if they don't both air in the same timeslot. What matters is Fam's ratings vs other CBS shows

Fam and The Good Place were in the same time slot. And on Thursdays They were third in the line up next to Young Sheldon and The Big Bang Theory.

As I said their ceiling is too high if THAT'S what they're going by with a new show that had a good foundation of a average 0.88/5.597 million viewers. You can certainly build off of that. They have The Big Bang Theory Leaving this year and have cancelled other comedy shows. It sounds like they're just not giving them a chance and looking for a homerun in a shows first season.

I fault dinosaurs(old folks) and greedy out of touch with audiences people for cancelling some of these good shows. lol.

All of that makes sense to me. People don't remember that Seinfeld wasn't any good at first. If it debuted these days, it probably wouldn't get a second season pickup. SMH

They are trying to survive, since cable is dying and everything is switching to streaming. Desperation.
