Here are some of the recent articles on “Eli Stone.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The kooky, mystical Eli Stone asks, \u201cWhat Would George Michael Do?\u201d <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

There is one Cop Rock<\/em>\u2013style sort of production number in every episode of Eli Stone,<\/em> but only one. Not all feature George Michael in person\u2014taking one energetic turn will be Garber himself, a Broadway song-and-dance man before he enlisted as Jennifer Garner\u2019s spooky father on Alias<\/em>\u2014but many of Michael\u2019s songs are referenced. This baffles me as much as it does Eli. But when Eli sees Michael\u2019s name spelled out in blocks by an autistic little boy, he is all of a sudden moved to represent that boy\u2019s mother in a suit against a pharmaceutical company whose flu vaccine may have contributed to the autism.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

A look at “Lipstick Jungle,” “Eli Stone,” and “Welcome to the Captain” and some other stuff<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The fantasy elements, so far, have been lame. The George Michael bits are not interesting at all. The dance routine in the second episode was terrible (it was funny seeing Garber dance, though). And because we still don’t have a full understanding of who Eli Stone is the bigger fantasy elements (like the attack plane) just don’t work. We don’t understand his personality, we don’t fully understand what exactly he could feel guilty or concerned about, and so when something odd happens it’s just stupid. Again, yes, the show is only two episodes old at this point and hasn’t found its voice yet, but it’s going to have to find it fast and I don’t think it can. I get the feeling that this show could go thirteen episodes or more and not find its voice and balance. That’s a serious problem.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

‘Lost’ leads ABC to win <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for “Eli Stone,” it averaged a second place 3.3\/9 in 18-49 and 8.83 million viewers overall — finishing behind a repeat of CBS crime drama “Without a Trace” (2.7\/7, 10.20m) in total viewers but winning its slot in the 18-49, 25-54 and 12-34 categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

“Eli” was down 18% in 18-49 from its premiere, while lead-in “Lost” (6.5\/16, 15.29m) posted a smaller 3% falloff. The drama about a lawyer who just may be a prophet is outperforming another rookie drama to air in the timeslot this season, “Big Shots.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
