What’s everyone watching this week? What’s everyone rooting for? While I, myself, am not tuning in to most of these shows, there are quite a lot of underdogs that I find myself cheering on. For instance, Monday-Tuesday rom-com The Secret Life of My Secretary will be ending next week, and it’s yet to pass the 5 percent mark. You can do eeet!
Wednesday-Thursday rom-com My Absolute Boyfriend hasn’t been doing so well either, especially with fellow romance dramas Angel’s Last Mission: Love and One Spring Night taking all the viewers. One Spring Night even managed to pull ahead on Wednesday, bringing in 8.1 percent. Meanwhile, with weekend shows, there wasn’t much change — not that they have to worry with those high numbers. I guess it’s a great time to be a weekend cable drama.
