IS IT SEPTEMBER YET?

"You're getting very sleepy...... It's not the spell, you should probably just change the channel."

This story is from yesterday but I've been busy with a job and a life and just overall not giving a shit, so here it is. I know you've been fervently checking bambat for news about some great summer series'. In the past, I've given the summer slate of reality shite some solid slamming, but I've been ignoring the fact that some networks are at least trying to get some original content out there. And by original, I mean foreign imports.

NBC's Merlin (from the UK) and ABC's Impact (Germany) both debuted on Sunday to boring ratings, defeated by reruns of Fox's animated shows. Who would have guessed a show about a magical boy not named Potter and one about midgets trying to motorboat strippers with EEE breasts* wouldn't find audiences. Actually that second one sounds pretty good. What's wrong with you people?


* I have no idea what Impact is about.
