• TV's 5 biggest canceled shows

    David Caruso and Jonathan Togo on the now canceled "CSI: Miami."

    A procedural drama with a bigger audience than the renewed "CSI: NY." A teenage drama with a bigger audience than the renewed "Gossip Girl." A crime show with a bigger audience than almost everything.

    Here's a rundown of some of the top-rated TV shows that got axed as the broadcast networks unveiled their new fall schedules:

    1. "Unforgettable": A Top 25 show, the one-and-done Poppy Montgomery series was TV's most-watched drama or comedy to rate a pink slip. But like "Rob," another show offed by CBS despite a similar- and good-sized audience of about 12 million, "Unforgettable" appears to have been punished for being the weakest link, relatively speaking, on an otherwise powerhouse night for the network.

    2. "CSI: Miami": In its 10th season, it averaged 10.5 million viewers, not far off from its ninth-season performance. At the same time, it was not far behind "CSI" (12.4 million) and was a bit ahead of "CSI: NY" (10.5 million), both of which are coming back. Speculation on its demise has centered on its production costs.

    3. "Terra Nova": The freshman dinosaur drama was declared dead in March, but its audience of 10 million viewers still looms large, and larger in fact than every Fox series, canceled or renewed, save for "American Idol" and "The X Factor." The closed-down "Alcatraz" (9.6 million viewers) was Fox's second-biggest snubee.

    4. "Missing": ABC didn't take out a bigger show than the midseason-launched Ashley Judd thriller, which averaged 8.9 million viewers but lacked for a young-adult audience as badly as Kathy Bates' "Harry's Law" (8.9 million viewers). The latter series, by the way, wasn't just NBC's most-watched cancellation victim, but also the struggling network's most-watched scripted series overall.

    5. "The Secret Circle": With 2.1 million viewers, the only CW drama with a bigger audience than this forsaken freshman series was its lead-in, "The Vampire Diaries." Once again a series seems to have suffered for being awarded one of its network's golden time slots.

  • Kardashian sisters dish on Kanye, divorce and baby talk

    When Kim, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian get together, you know you're in for an entertaining time. Particularly when some good-natured sibling ribbing is the order of the day.

    When the E! stars sat down on "The Tonight Show" Monday night, the sisters gabbed about everything from Kanye West to the impending birth of Kourt's new baby girl to the rumors that Khloe was leaving the reality business to even -- yes, they went there -- Kim's still-fresh pending divorce.

    MORE: Kanye West, Lamar Odom join Kardashians for Kourtney's baby shower!

    Jay Leno wasted no time in questioning Kim on her relationship with Kanye, asking her about his song, "Theraflu," purportedly about his new girlfriend.

    "I don't know if he wrote it for me," she began.

    "I feel like the lyrics kinda say he wrote it for you," Khloe interjected. "I think the song is self-explanatory. I think it definitely says it's for her."

    "I think my name's in it," Kim conceded, prompting laughs from the audience. A fairly good indicator, then, as clues go.

    That wasn't the only time Khloe got the best of Kim during the interview. While promoting the seventh season of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," Kim began rehashing the paternity drama that recently surrounded Khloe, explaining that her late father's exes were to blame for fanning the flames of the rumors.

    "My dad's ex-wives that he was married to for two seconds..." Kim began, but Khloe quickly -- and to applause, "oohs" and entertained gasps from the audience -- said, "Runs in the family."

    Oh yes, she went there. Kim good-naturedly rolled with the punch. "That was a good one," she said.

    Meanwhile, Khloe also denied that her and Lamar Odom's temporary hiatus from their eponymous reality show signaled the beginning of the end for them on the small screen.

    "I understand that people need to sell magazines," she said. "I didn't pull the plug on any show, we just wanted the summer (off)."

    "I mean, Lamar and I have fun doing what we're doing. 'Keeping Up' is a show that we're taping and that we always do. I don't know how something spun so far out in the media. We're just doing what makes us happy, so until it doesn't make us happy, we'll do it. We're just taking the summer off. It's like we're in school, and now it's summer."

    Which also means that the birth of Kourtney's second child is drawing ever closer. But can viewers expect to be treated to another video of the birth like her infamous footage delivering Mason?

    "I don't know," she told Jay. "We're gonna film it again ourselves, and honestly, my experience last time was so peaceful and calm and everything you don't see in the movies. And I really wanted to share that with people so they knew it doesn't have to be a crazy screaming session."

    Kourtney said that she and Scott Disick will decide after the fact "if we're into sharing it or not."

    Now that would be must-see TV.

    Catch more from the Kardashian's when "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" seventh season premieres Sunday at 9 p.m. ET on the E! network.

  • Ballroom pros dish on upcoming 'Dancing With the Stars: All Stars' season

    Getty (2), GSN

    Past "Dancing" stars, including Kyle Massey, Mel B and Gilles Marini, could soon be headed back to the ballroom. It's a prospect pro hoofers look forward to.

    On Monday night, host Tom Bergeron said that there would be an "exciting announcement for 'Dancing With the Stars' fans about next season" made on Tuesday’s show. But the powers that be at ABC just couldn't wait that long. On Tuesday morning, the network broke the big news: the rumored all-star season of the show is officially a rumor no more. It's on the schedule for fall of 2012.

    Now, could we please have Cloris Leachman back? Sure, her dancing wasn’t spectacular, but her impromptu post-dance curtain calls and red-room comments were must-see TV! Seriously, just imagine past contenders like Gilles Marini, Mel B. and Joanna Krupa once again competing for the coveted mirror ball trophy.

    Actually, it looks like official casting talk is still a ways away.

    "We can't talk about the casting yet, but I'd love to see some of the fan favorites from the last seasons come back,"ABC entertainment president Paul Lee said in a quote published to The Hollywood Reporter. "We have many from the past 14 seasons."

    At least we know the professional dancers are up for it no matter who they dance with, as their post-show but pre-announcement comments to reporters revealed.

    “It’s time,” said two-time "DWTS" winner Cheryl Burke. “Next season is season 15. Maybe some non-winners who should have won could come back? We need some more excitement. There are only so many celebrities you can get.”

    Producers could either pair the pro dancers up with stars they’ve done the Argentine tango and the paso doble with in the past, or they could pair pros and stars who’ve never danced together before. 

    “I’d like to take another crack with (season-five partner) Sabrina Bryan (or Derek Hough’s partner from season 10) Nicole Scherzinger,” commented Mark Ballas. “I’d love to have another go at it with Chelsea Kane (from season 12), too.”

    “It’d be interesting to see, if we do an all-stars season, if they put us with our previous partners or are they going to split us up?” wondered Hough.

    The three-time “DWTS” champion is open to having someone new -- provided, of course, that she’s height appropriate.

    “A very beautiful girl who was on the show previously said to me, ‘I want to dance with you!’" he recalled. "I said, ‘That’s great, but we’re going to have to cut off half your shins because you’re too tall for me, baby!’”

    Would season-seven champion and current “DWTS” host Brooke Burke partake?

    “She can’t,” Hough said. “She’s a host!”

    But Hough’s current partner, “Extra” host Maria Menounos had an idea as to how that scenario could unfold. “We could switch (jobs),” she suggested. “That would be fun!”

    Michael Maloney is the author of "The Young and Restless Life of William J. Bell, creator of The Young and the Restless and The Bold and the Beautiful."

    Are you excited about the all-star season? Which stars would you like to see hit the dance floor again: Cloris Leachman, Mel B., Giles Marini, Joanna Krupa -- maybe Kyle Massey? Share your thoughts on our Facebook page.

    Warning: If you haven't watched tonight's episode and don't want to be spoiled for the big reveal, please do not read this. And definitely don't read this and then complain to us in the comments.

    Longtime "How I Met Your Mother" fans know it's always a big deal when secrets are revealed. The season seven finale was no exception. We saw a proposal, a failed wedding, a birth and a bride from the future.

    The long-awaited reveal of perpetual bachelor Barney's (Neil Patrick Harris) bride is finally here. And who is the lucky lady? Wait for it....

    It's Robin!

    But it's not exactly a straight line to the big day. In fact, Ted (Josh Radnor) calls it the "wedding day that went terribly wrong." But we won't get that story until later.

    Laboring Lily: Lily (Alyson Hannigan) might be about ready to pop, but everyone needs to stop panicking. Robin (Cobie Smulders) has birthed a foal before, so Lily is in great hands. Robin and Ted tell stories to distract her from her blinding pain. It turns into a fantastically fun clip show of sorts with story highlights such as: "Worst Cab Ride Ever," "Ted and the Cuban Sandwich Crisis," "Barney Picks Up Girls as the Terminator," and "Ted and the Freakishly Long Arm Hair." All great names for bands.

Of course they make it and the littlest addition has the most awesome name ever! Welcome to the world Marvin Wait For It Eriksen!

    Old Home Week: Robin gives Ted the hard truth about why he hasn't found "the one" yet. Could it be because he's already found her, Victoria (Ashley Williams)? Yes our favorite girlfriend of Ted's past is back, and this time she's the runaway bride. But our Teddy is a nice guy, and almost crippled with guilt, he takes her back to her wedding. But psych! They drive off into the sunset. Do you think Victoria could be the mother, or is this just stalling?

Once a player ... we kid! Barney proposes to Quinn (Becki Newton), but a little ways down the road we learn that Barney and Robin are set to get hitched!

    But we are left with some major mysteries for season eight. What happened to Quinn? How did Robin and Barney head to the altar? And will they go through with the ceremony despite it being "the wedding day that went terribly wrong?"

    Do you think Barney and Robin say "I do"? Is it possible for Victoria to end up being the titular mother? We love to speculate, so tell us on Facebook!
