For it's 2nd season according to Entertainment Weekly "Watching Ellie" will drop the clock and will become a traditional 4-camera show with a studio audience.

Here it is
Right now it is pretty much just pictures, if I like the new season I may start to update the site but if I don't like the new season I'll just delete the site. |

Hopefully it'll be much better. They need to hire new writers though. Because last season wasn't all that funny.

I love Julia but the real-time aspect of this show didn't work. The reason why it works so well for 24 is because there's 3 storylines.

"Watching Ellie" might have made it in its original format if Julia Louis-Dreyfus and her husband Brad Hall hadn't succumbed to pressure to change it. By adopting a standard format, they abandoned what originally made "Watching Ellie" so unique. What was the point of abanadoning real-time and going for more cameras when the Halls were trying to be different? Too bad.

They had to. Mother Zucker would have axed the show on the spot if they hadn't. One day, he's all high on single-cam sitcoms. The next, he hates them. So he throws 3 episodes in the garbage and gives us all 6 episodes of the horrible four-camera second season. And then he cancels it anyway. |
