Entertainment Weekly Online has an article with the person who runs Vote for the Worst... you can read it here, if you're interested.
It just goes to show you, though... if there are enough people passionate enough about your favorite TV show to band together for a common cause, they just might have a positive or negative influence on it.
Then again, the travesties that are Smallville and Grey's Anatomy would belie that statement. If only fans did have an influence on those shows....

Dave rocks! (the guy who runs the vftw website...that is the same dave chris sligh did a shout out too when he said 'hi dave!' lol)
I am a worster this season, i vote for sanjaya! i luv him, and i luv making the hard core AI fans go crazy :lol: trust me...that message board is psycho, they are very angry people...
I think this weeks CSI is going to do ok...i foresee a ratings drop next season, including me...
I would imagine for a ratings drops next season, as there has been every season for each of the past four, but just wait for the series finale, I think it is gonna go huge.
You're probably right, mrb105. But I think Sarah and XFCanadian are on to something when they bring up a slow but growing backlash to the show. I've always felt that they were manufacturing pop stars rather than discovering them, which is why I've never really gotten into it. And if there are a growing number of people who feel the same way, well, human nature being what it is, I can see AI becoming a parody of itself. You could argue that it almost is now... all those big names coming up to "help" the kids (& boost ratings), and still the numbers are going down and the good singers are getting sent home.
But to keep this somewhat on topic: do you think the promise of solving the MCSK mystery will lure more people to the CSI finale this year? (Be kind; I'm unspoiled!)
It is hard to say because CSI has never done something like this before. I may have said this before or may have not, but I think you have to relate it to a season of 24, the whole season builds up for the ending, and for the people who haven't seen some parts feel like they won't be able to follow, therefore they won't watch. But, on the other hand I could see it going real big, as all season finale's do. It all depends on how CBS promotes it. If they do it right, it will succeed, if they do it wrong, it won't.
I am spoiler free, therefore I'm trying not to learn a lot about the plot for the last couple episodes, therefore I can't really comment on it.
Wow. Ratings are in... and the result is not good.
At all. They definitely went down. *fuck*
Okay, time for my usual spin, BUT... every single show seems to have been going down in the ratings lately. Maybe sampling the college kids is spreading the ratings thin?
God I am in a horrendous mood, not because of the ratings, which is kinda sad, but I accidently ran into some spoilers for the season finale. I'm gonna go punch some stuff.

Honestly, if it was just CSI, I would take all of this at face value. But Grey's is dropping, CSI is dropping, Dancing With the Stars is dropping, American Idol is dropping, Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader, House, Deal or No Deal...
I don't know if it's the fact that people know they can TiVo it or watch it online, but perhaps people just don't see the point in watching live the way that they used to.
I'm not "worried", I just wish CSI was getting more kudos for a great season.
If it makes anyone feel better, last year's 19th episode got 23.327 million. I don't know if this is indicative, but it was also Greg-heavy (Spellbound). But I don't want to think that about my Greggo *hugs*

To tell you the truth, I think we're supposed to find out who the MCSK is pretty much from the start of the episode.
mrb105 keep in mind that spoilers are subject to change and not always written in stone, so what you found out could always be rewritten, or cut, or edited. Cheer up knowing any of that should make it abit better.
