Benjamonster's TV

Here is my annual end of year countdown of my favorite episodes!

Past Years:  2014     2013     2012     2011 20) Modern Family #142 "Patriot Games" (May 6, 2015) It has been a sad tumble for  Modern Family , which was once one of the sharpest shows on TV. It churned out great episodes week after week for a couple years but the recent seasons have seen the episodes much fewer and further between. In fact, this current season has been almost unwatchable. One rare bright spot in 2015 for this show was "Patriot Games," an episode that seemed to be a call back to its earlier, better days. This was thanks mainly to the Cam and Mitch storyline, which found them unhappily participating in a protest with their friends. It was ...

NBC announced today that it has cancelled the variety show Best Time Ever with Neil Patrick Harris . NBC won a competitive bidding war for the showman's talents, but this show languished in development for quite a long time. When it finally premiered in September for an eight week run, it was critically panned and only did so-so ratings. I thought it might have a shot to come back in another limited capacity, but that was not the case. It's another blow at the attempt to revive the variety show. Best Time Ever joins ABC's Wicked City as the only shows with official cancellations though many others that had episode orders cut ( Minority Report, Truth Be Told, Blood & Oil. The Player ) are all unofficially cancelled.

Though it has not been confirmed by CBS, several stars of Mike & Molly have confirmed that the upcoming sixth season of the sitcom will be the show's last, and it has been trimmed from 22 episodes to 13 episodes. Mike & Molly premiered in 2010 and has always been a solid but unspectacular performer for CBS. In its first year, it initially followed Two and a Half Men , but that show stopped airing new episodes in February due to Charlie Sheen's meltdown. It got a boost in its second year following the heralded return of Men . Since then, it's become a utility player. This is the third season in a row that it didn't get a spot on the fall schedule. Also since it's premiered, star Melissa McCarthy has become a huge film star. Many suspected she wouldn't want to stick with the show, but she tweeted today that she was "heartbroken" and would have done it for "50 more years." Mike & Molly will air on Wednesday nights starting in J...
