Your show seems to be doing well though.

Very true!


Yeah.....they changed the spelling just enough as to not have to pay me royalties for using it! Damn NBC

Let's be real though, Sofia will land on her feet and we will get to see her huge rack on another show in the very near future. Ditto for some of the others who give us a stiffy (or does some other things for Fab4).

Is it me, or did a lot of shows on that list come from Fox?

I would gladly hold hands with you and pray about this!

That's it; someone call up FX. Maybe they can recreate some of the magic Nip/Tuck had in their first couple seasons (before they went off the deep end).

I watched Nip Tuck the first season or two, it was actually pretty good.

That sucks. One of the better shows on TV right now. If Netflix is out looking to rescue shows they should definitely snag that one.

I'd like to see V get picked-up on SciFi...honestly I think that show was too deep and too well-written to succeed on network tv, although some of the acting didn't help.

Just got around to watching Mondays episode last night. Probably the best episode I've seen on any show this year(including Justified which is my favorite show).

im done with network tv shows....i will only watch cable shows from now on. everytime i like a show it gets cancelled after one or two seasons. every fall they scrap good shows and come out with 42 different wack ass comedies that arent funny and 10 different types of law and order like we need CSI effing alabama. if a network show makes it past four seasons i might watch it on netflix rant over

Shawn Ryan created "The Shield", one of my favorite shows ever. Chicago Code has the same edge, but this time the cops are good guys. Big mistake canceling that show...The network model really stacks the deck against some of these shows, between launching mid-season or doing a little trial run of 4-6 episodes and then a long hiatus where much of the audience forgets or never realizes when it comes back.

Feel the same way honestly. The only network show I watch is Modern Family on ABC I think. HBO/Showtime and then cable shows on TNT/FX/AMC/Comedy Central/etc are all so much better.

Showtime:
-Weeds
-Californication
-Dexter

HBO:
-How to Make it in America
-Curb Your Enthusiasm
-Game of Thrones
-Trueblood
-Boardwalk Empire
-Entourage
-Eastbound and Down

AMC:
-Mad Men
-The Killing
-Breaking Bad
-Walking Dead

FX:
-Justified
-The League
-Always Sunny
-Terriers
-Sons of Anarchy
-Lights Out

Those are the shows I watch. So exactly 1 network, 2 Cable, and 2 Premium channels.
