‘Smallville,’ ‘Supernatural’ No Trouble In Keeping Audience

The CW duo of “Smallville” and “Supernatural” stayed mostly stable in its audience through its second week as both shows seem to be tracking stronger than last year. “Smallville” earned a 2.6 rating/4 share, according to Fast National ratings from Nielsen Media Research, down just slightly from the previous week. What’s interesting is that KItchen Nightmares” did so horribly for Fox that “Smallville” almost beat it to move out of the basement of the 8 p.m. hour. “Supernatural” kept things going in the second hour, according to Zap2it, with an estimated 2.2/4 for the hour, losing only a few percent of the “Smallville” audience. This time the distance between The CW and Fox was a little greater, but not by much. Both shows are keeping very stable audiences. Early Stability Index …

I won’t get into the details of his spoiler here, because there are some SyFriday readers who don’t want to be spoiled, but either he thought these elements were in the mid-season finale that he talked about, …

Review: ‘Knight Rider’ – A Knight In Shining Armor

The following contains MAJOR SPOILERS for the premiere episode of “Knight Rider” on NBC. Let me start out by saying that I’m a “vehicle” fan. Even though I can’t rebuild an engine or identify what’s wrong when my car breaks down, I love the looks of modes of transportation, including cars, starships, planes and trains. So I already like the new KITT and its many Transformer-like shapes. The question is, will the show reviving one I was tepid about when it first aired be something special? Sadly, the answer is, “No.” At least, the first episode left me cold. Here’s what happened this week. Mike Traceur, son of Michael Knight (the original KITT driver), is now a full-fledged secret agent, complete with tuxedo, and he and flame Sarah Graiman are infiltrating an organization to get secrets …
