Celebrity Finale Showdown: May 14
May 12, 2006
Two Emmy-winning series will end seven-season runs this Sunday -- in the same time slot. "The West Wing" wraps on NBC from 8-9 while "Malcolm in the Middle" ends on Fox from 8:30-9. Both shows have struggled in their final seasons. The similarities get more personal when you consider that Bradley Whitford stars in "WW" while his wife Jane Kaczmarek stars in "Malcolm." What will their living-room TV be tuned to?
TV Historians note: A similar Sunday May 14 showdown occurred in 1989 when two of the most popular shows of the 80s -- both with rising movie star leads -- squared off. The result? The "Family Ties" farewell was #1 for the week for Michael J. Fox but "Moonlighting" with Bruce Willis limped across the finish line at #70. --Ken Hommel
