Ya'll aren't missing anything...
Here are a couple links. Maybe you'll recognize him. He has done some talk shows and was featured one morning last week or earlier this week on the Today show with clips from his interview with John Mark Karr... ( I think it was a publicity gimmick he used to promote his show..) From one of the sites I saw the other day (not necessarily these) that the clips were released only to the Today show..

My impression of him even before his show started airing was that he might have been trying to tap into the popularity of Dr. Phil...
It's rather dry...compared to Dr. Phil.. He also seems to be more drawn to the more controversial type news stories..
You can probably find out if the show is available in your area at the WB site.. I initially didn't think it was going to be on in my area but one of the WB channels did pick it up.
As someone mentioned in another thread... There are way too many new shows on this season.. I think it probably throws off the viewing numbers. I am still seeing new ads for new shows still debuting! Some shows probably won't get half a chance if they are set up in poor slots.. I can't remember a season where so many new shows,(dramas, reality and talk shows) debuted at the same time.
I haven't any clue about which of the new talk shows are going to survive.. But I wouldn't bet any money on Dr. Ablow unless he changes his format or personality.
Anybody here watching it regularly? I checked it out the first couple days... I saw a part of a show a week or 2 ago where I recognized the guests as having been on a reality show a few weeks prior.
