Head Cases is dead, Jim

Many thought Jennifer Love Hewitt’s drama would be the first to get axed. That show hasn’t premiered yet, and FOX has already killed HEAD CASES. Always beware of any show whose description includes the adjective “quirky.” Those shows never get ratings.

Apparently you didn’t read the article, Augie. The show has been on for two weeks.

I was referring to Hewitt’s show, not HEAD CASES.

I’m going to TiVo “Ghost Whisperer” simply to see how many scenes she’s coincidentally wearing a tight tank top in.
Snow on the ground? That’s OK, she’ll just wear a parka over her tight tank top!
For someone who clearly understands what her biggest assets are as an actress, it’s interesting how chaste her movie roles have been. When this show tanks, I think we have to start the clock ticking down towards Jennifer Love Hewitt’s first topless scene. (And there was much rejoicing.)

Ally McBeal had “quirky” stamped all over it in bright red ink and it did fine.

John — ALLY McBEAL is the exception. “Quirky” shows don’t often last, or if they do, their ratings stink. (Would we call ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT quirky? SCRUBS?)
Beau — She’ll need to go the Alyssa Milano route. Can Hewitt handle a vampire movie? Of course she could…

I’d add GILMORE GIRLS to the quirky list.
