Samantha Who? Snags Eddie Cibrian and Kiele Sanchez
posted in on October 20th, 2007
If you needed two more reasons to catch ABC’s unquestionably entertaining Samantha Who?, here they are: Sources confirmed that producers have tapped ex-Invasion hottie Eddie Cibrian and short-lived Lost castaway Kiele Sanchez for multi-episode arcs.
Cibrian has been cast as a love interest for Christina Applegate’s title character, while Sanchez — who is just one good role away from being a huge star — will romance Barry Watson’s Todd.
ABC is clearly looking to keep both actors on the payroll. In addition to their respective roles on Invasion and Lost, Cibrian and Sanchez starred in the Alphabet Net’s ill-fated Football Wives pilot.

Ratings Roundup: 1.01 - Pilot
posted in on October 16th, 2007Hefty bow for ABC’s ‘Samantha Who?’
ABC now has the season’s two most-watched new show debuts. Last night’s series premiere of the sitcom “Samantha Who?” became the most-watched new program of the season, drawing nearly 15 million viewers, and bettering last month’s 14.4 million for “Private Practice.”
“Samantha” also averaged a 4.5 rating among adults 18-49 at 9:30 p.m., according to Nielsen overnights, holding 92 percent of its “Dancing with the Stars” lead-in at 9 p.m. The 90-minute “Stars” averaged a 4.9 and 20 million viewers in its finale half hour.
That rating could adjust, as “Dancing” may have bled into “Samantha’s” timeslot; overnights measure timeslot data, not actual program data.
But the debut looks quite promising for ABC, which has struggled to find strong new sitcoms the past few years.

I’d like to take a moment and welcome everyone to SamanthaWho.org; the [soon-to-be] ultimate Samantha Who? fan community. My name is Heidi and I’m SamanthaWho.org’s webmaster. Some visitors might know me from GilmoreGirls.org (SamanthaWho.org’s sister site). In the coming weeks and months you’ll notice a lot of changes around here. I have specific plans and ideas for how I’d like the site to look and feel. Please hang in there during any construction or renovation.
