After having the red/white/grey layout for a while, I decided to give J-Lafferty.com a fresh, totally different layout. It’s a green, simple one with multiple pictures of James. I hope you all like it, feedback would be very much appreciated. Leave your feedback on the comments area! Thanks!

The setting: 1940s North Carolina. A young woman comes upon a horrible scene on a rusty, moonlit bridge where a black-hatted, mustached villain is directing his henchman to dangle a boyish reporter — cement shoes and all — over the grimy stream below. ”He killed Lucas’ Uncle Keith!” the bruised reporter cries as the lady emerges from behind an antique Lincoln, wearing a prim white blouse and navy pencil skirt. ”I said I was onto something and I was right! He murdered him!”

Last season, the writers’ strike led to the shutdown of all of our favorite scripted television shows, forcing many of them to wrap up their seasons with less than 22 episodes. A few shows bounced back from the strike and went on to ratings gold, but others have found their numbers plummeting since the new season began. Viewers are a fickle bunch, and if a show disappears for too long it’s likely many people will forget about it and move on.

The CW has struggled to court viewers since its inception, and their latest plan ensures that fickle audience members won’t have time to forget their shows. According to Entertainment Weekly’s Michael Ausiello, the network has ordered additional episodes of Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill and 90210, allowing each series to have an extra long season.

The CW has ordered three additional episodes of Gossip Girl, bringing its total to 25 for the season, and two of both One Tree Hill and 90210, extending each to 24 episodes. This decision is obviously driven by business needs and not creative desires, so let’s hope the writers of these series can create compelling story lines to fill a few more episodes. I can barely watch an hour of the slow-moving 90210 as it is, so I’m not sure two more installments are necessary in that case.
