Hey, remember what happened on last night's episode of Saints & Sinners? Of course not...because you've never even heard of the show. Because no one watches MyNetworkTV.
The wannabe network started as a vendetta by Rupert Murdoch placed against the CW network, which abandoned his UPN affiliates of programming. But after a year of English-speaking telenovelas squandering and hemorrhaging cash, the MyNetworkTV "execs" have to reality shows and a couple uninspired new series instead.
Coming up? How about the fresh titled prison show Jail. Wow...how long did they plan that one? Then we've got Divorce Wars. Ohh! Yes please! I want to watch a show that dramatizes lengthy divorce proceedings.
Then they're resurrecting the long since cancelled NBC reality show Meet My Folks (you remember this one, right? it was a Meet the Parents reality show rip off that was already stale when it was on NBC like four years ago).
Follow that up with a thrilling reality series The Academy about a class of recruits in the Los Angeles Sheriff's Academy and you've got a white hot lineup right there, kid.
Rupert, either give up or spend some cash on development. Enough of this in between bullshit.
