Reality Renewals: ‘Survivor’, ‘Judge Judy’, ‘Gladiators 2000’
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Action, Daytime, Kids, Prime Time, Reality, CBS, Syndication, Survivor, Renewals,
With Survivor: Micronesia days away from debut, CBS has already moved on to its programming future. Realizing their aging reality show is still a ratings hit, the network has just announced they’ll be bringing it back for more. This means we will see two more installments of this Mark Burnett production following the ‘Fans vs. Favorites’ version premiering next month. And, of course, the dimpled Jeff Probst will be there to guide us to the end.
If you want to start prepping your next Survivor pool now, you can get a rundown of the contestants here. In the meantime, set your Tivos for Thursday, Feb. 7th @ 8pm.

Ellen Interviews From Bed
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, Syndication,
Is this a history making TV event or what? Well, maybe not, but I’m pretty sure that conducting an interview from a hospital bed is a new one. Ellen DeGeneres, who hurt her back over the weekend when she tried to pick up her dog, was instructed to lay flat while she heals. Not one to quit, she carried on with her show—albeit from a hospital bed in her pajamas. Guests had their own hospital bed to lay in during the interview. DeGeneres told her Tuesday audience, “No, I’m not being lazy. I’m forced to bed rest right now. ... And, let me just start by saying I’m on pills.” One of Ellen’s guests was her doctor, Fred Lerner, who advised her to stay in bed for a week. He also added, “I’m hoping in a few weeks, we can see you dance here.” Here, here.

Rachael Ray’s Show Renewed Through 2010
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Daytime, Food & Home, Talk Shows, Syndication, Ratings, Renewals,
Brace yourselves… we’ve got two more seasons of Rachael Ray-isms to endure. Her daytime gabfest has been extended through the 2009-2010 season. Don’t get me wrong, I love her recipes and can sorta stomach her 30 Minute Meals program on the Food Network. An hour of her talk show Rachael Ray is just way too much to endure though. Her personality seems over the top—maybe it is genuine, but there is just too much hyper energy behind it for me to stick through an entire hour of her show. Folks love her though—she really appeals to the masses and she’s the polar opposite of stuffy Martha Stewart. Her show is the top new syndicated show of the season, so she certainly has a following. Roger King, CEO at CBS Television Distribution, said of the renewal, “It’s clear that Rachael’s devoted fans are happy to welcome her into their living rooms every day and the positive response from our affiliate stations has been tremendous. We look forward to many more years of fantastic shows from Rachael and the show’s talented creative team.” Can she keep the energy up for a couple more seasons? My money says yes, and then some.
