Update - Mar 18, 2006

When I logged on this morning, I was happily surprised to read the news about the search engine being updated. It's certainly been a while since it's been updated; hopefully, it will be kept up to date on a regular basis. It would make sense to update it on a daily basis, along with the contributor points and levels. With the update on the search engine, it's now very easy to see all of the duplicate names, and it's a scary mess. Yakira's big list will surely be growing soon, but it's unfortunate that none of the names are being deleted from the database. When I stopped by the main tv.com page, I saw the graphic about WWE coming back to NBC Saturday nights. I admit it's a bit surprising to hear, since it's been off NBC's programming for several years. I decided to tune in for a little bit to see how it's changed, and it's not changed much since I saw it last. There are a few new faces, and a few are no longer involved, but overall, it's the same. I just heard that NBC will now air Deal or No Deal three days a week soon. WHY?! Did NBC not learn from ABC's mistake when they aired Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? ABC got greedy with their popular show and decided to "over-air" it, several broadcasts a week, until the public got tired of it and stopped watching. If NBC does the same with their show, it will have a similar fate. Regardless, I don't have any intent on watching it, so it won't bother me. This just seems like a move NBC is making because they can't come up with anything for TV anymore.
