New on DVD: Week of November 10
There are a handful of decent Blu-ray movies releasing this week. I thought The Ugly Truth was a pretty good movie. I'm not a big fan of Katherine Heigl but Gerard Butler did a great job in the movie. It was quite a change from seeing him play King Leonidas in 300.

Last week's DVD sales continue to prove that people love animated movies, and Up should...

FlashForward Ratings Reason for Concern
When FlashForward debuted earlier this fall it was the most buzzed about new show on TV. The ratings were good though they were not spectacular. Since the premiere fan following has dropped and that is being seen in the ratings. Last week's episode, which was hyped to be the "one you had to see", delivered the lowest ratings for the series thus far. The 8.5 million viewers and only a 2.6 rating in the 18-49 come in well below ABC's expectations. While it has a solid following on DVR that ...
