TV
  • Is Heroes the best show on TV? We think so...the season finale airs on May 21, 2007.
  • We are still watching 24, but this season has been a let down. The big climax will have Jack Bauer saving his kidnapped girlfriend from the Chinese? This 24 hours comes to a close on May 21 as well.
  • Lost and American Idol will duke it out on May 23, 2007, with season finales. Can anyone guess who will get the better ratings?
  • The Amazing Race: All Stars has reached the finish line. We were a bit surprised that Eric and Danielle took the crown.
  • It's May Sweeps time...check out Zap2It for complete coverage of when shows will be airing their finales.
