Good TVeets

danharmon : okay, guys! Not asking you to do anything for me, because you're already fans, I'm just informing: if ratings drop tonight, I kill myself! ...  It's not an appeal, it's just information. I have a gun in my mouth. If I get a 2, I put it in a drawer. 1.9, on the desk. 1.8, BANG. ...RT @doctawojo will you film it? ~ Glad you asked this. ABSOLUTELY NOT. The OPPOSITE. I will do it in an UNLIT TUNNEL. ... I want to make it clear that I am not threatening to kill myself if people don't watch. I wouldn't watch a show under those circumstances...What I'm doing is explaining to whichever 2 Nielsen homes keep going out to dinner on Thursdays that their appetite can be deadly. .. RT @gishgali: Will you go by fast nationals or wait for the official ratings? ~ Another good question. Thank you. Fast nationals.




Memles : Just set a series recording for Outsourced. Don't get excited NBC: it's just because you keep letting the Office coda run into it.

weinmanj : The third season of King of the Hill may be the best season of television in my adult lifetime.  Of course are other seasons of other shows are _as good_, and KotH's other seasons aren't quite on that level - but 1998-9, wow. Everything.

ShowPatrol : If I had a Nielsen box, the TV world would be a better place.

TVDoneWright : OF COURSE the gay couple is watching Glee ..... Sighs. #ShitMyDadSays

weinmanj : SHIT MY DAD SAYS is an illustrated lecture on why 4-camera sitcoms almost died: many jokes aren't really worse than on other shows, but....the static format & audience response magnifies flaws in any joke that isn't genuinely good. It's strangely unforgiving to so-so jokes.

TVDoneWright : It took 3 episodes for a masturbating in a sock joke? I'm shocked by their restraint #ShitMyDadSays

tvoti : Yesterday, the number one trending topic worldwide was Grilled Cheesus. Today, it's Mario Vargas Llosa. Presented without comment.

weinmanj : Seems like everybody's doing religion episodes, now & upcoming. Is this in the news or just on writers' minds?

weinmanj : Which good show is suffering more from a bad animal-related title, Cougar Town or Terriers? (Moral: animal names are for animal shows.)

calibadger : does anyone at tbs sports maybe consider asking craig sager to dress like an adult, instead of his ron burgundy tribute wardrobe?

MattMitovich : Looking for a cheery #SonsOfAnarchy episodic photo to go with renewal story....

barbhaynes : It's a fun writers room when you get to ask, “So, what if the gnome starts breakdancing...?”

alexweprin : FX renews Sons of Anarchy for season four, network chief John Landgraf calls it most popular show FX has ever had.

franklinavenue : CBS launches a timely Numb3rs mobile app. Looking forward to apps for Ghost Whisperer, Accidentally On Purpose and Gary Unmarried.

TVWithoutPity : Just long enough to add a naval investigator, a snarky vampire, and some singing kids. RT @THR: NBC putting #Outlaw on production hiatus

moryan : Haven picked for a 2nd season. Translation: more of The Balfour on Syfy next year. Next: Sharktobalfourus?

HartHanson : Hey, the Modern Family peeps sent us cupcakes to say thanks! Apparently we did something nice for them aside from laughing.
DannyZuker : @HartHanson This is awkward, but... I think those cupcakes were meant for Futurama. Silly mix-up. Please return.

danharmon : Oh, great. They told me it happened through stunt casting! RT @BarackObama change doesnt come from the top. Change happens because of you.

tweetwillrice : Glee fans can you please stop calling yourselves 'Gleeks' and start using the more politically correct 'Gleesus Freaks'

poniewozik :  THE GOOD WIFE is so many dramas at once: political, legal, romance, family, office. Like a restaurant w big portions: lots of value! NCIS does the many-shows-in-one thing too. GOOD WIFE is much better, but maybe this is a common thread of big-net successes?

maskedscheduler : Today begins my 31st year in the TV business. There's a fine line between experience and cynicism...I walk that line every day.

HitFixDaniel : For a show that actually requires NO explanation or set-up, Hellcats has an obscenely long Previously on...
