Man, how time flies. We’re already at the end of June and saying goodbye to the first round of the summer dramas. On Tuesday, we had the finales of rom-com The Secret Life of My Secretary and fantasy thriller Abyss. Secret Life didn’t pass the 5 percent mark like I’d hoped, but it did get its highest rating at 4.6 percent. As for Abyss… well, it ended? So yay?
Moving on, we had the finales of two drama sequels, Rescue Me 2 and Voice 3. The former did pretty well for itself, but it was the latter that really surprised me. To be the third season in a series and to get 4 percent ratings (on a cable channel) is mighty impressive in my book. Who knows, maybe they’ll pull out a fourth season. In the meantime, we have plenty of new dramas coming this July, so I hope y’all are ready!
