Fall TV line up - Page 3

^^^Here's hoping someone else picks it up. ABC said it was due to cost, but um...WTF? It's can't be that expensive and enough people are watching it. I love having Tim Russ on my TV every week. I need my post-Tuvok fix (even though he esentially plays a similarly unemotional character).

I like Dollhouse if that counts as SciFi? lol. I was nervous about how it would do in a Friday spot.

Im still trying to get into it...problem is I am beginning to think that The Powers That Be don't give people enough time to get into shows, because there has been a lot of good shows that somehow haven't made it 2 or 3 seasons if the ratings 'dip' ever so slightly.

and the good ones that last are the ones that go 5 years and go out while they are still fresh.

My shows always seem to get canceled pretty early on. It's really disappointing and yet I always find new shows that I like lol. I never learn... I did not expect dollhouse to be back but I am really happy that it was. The season finale was good.

Ugh, just looked at the fall TV grid and I'm not going to have any shows to watch on Tuesday or Wednesdays.

Guess I have to hang my hope on something decent on Bravo, TLC, or the CW. I'm annoyed that some of my shows are being moved around to new times/days, too (Big Bang Theory, Heroes, Medium, Ugly Betty)...thank goodness for DVR!

Renewed: Chuck, Dollhouse, Bones, Cold Case, Better Off Ted, Castle

Cancelled: Sarah Connor Chronicles, Prison Break, The Unusuals, Samandtha Who

Unlikely to return (but not confirmed yet): Without A Trace

What really irks me about Fox cancelling Sarah Connor, why the hell did they wait until NOW to tell us, when the SEASON finale was like 5-6 weeks ago and it was just that a SEASON finale!!!!!!!! Why couldn't those morons at Fox have made the decision and then instead we would have gotton a series finale!!!

(Sorry just really needed to vent that)

Plus, why the heck did they keep Dollhouse? What is that crap about?

I really, really hope T4 does well in the theaters and then Fox is like "hmm maybe we should have kept that show".

I hope that some other station picks it up, but I highly doubt it. I hate these stupid studio execs who keep craptastic shows (i.e. all the stupidly retarded reality shows) and cancel all the good stuff.

To quote Joss Whedons Mutant Enemy "GRRR ARGH"

FYI- I just found an online petition if anyone is interested. It already has over 18,000 signatures. I know that the petition thing works, it worked for some other show (which I cannot remember the name of it for the life of me)

I signed it. I'd like them to at least give us some closure with either a 2-hour special or another season.

I am mad that Kings is no where on NBC's line up although the website says it comes on again June.....?

This show on NBC looks good, at least a good cast.....Parenthood

Fox does this crap all the time. I am still bitter about John Doe, and that was YEARS ago.

Yay! I'm happy that Chuck got renewed! I love that show!

a.e.B.O.T. · #42 05-26-2009, 05:37 PM

Yay for Chuck, Boo for Samatha Who? I thought it was a good little show... There are some weird moves in the grids... Ugly Betty is Friday? Is that not where shows go to die? Anywho, as long as FNL is not cancelled...

As far as new shows:
I am up for checking out Accidently on Purpose... I am down for given Jenna Elfman another sitcom shot... With that said, the trailer Cougar Town seems much more appealing, and I don't think both Cougar shows will survive, if either...

Three Rivers seems incredibly cheesy to me, and I am over medical shows...

Fox didnt change much at all, but I welcome Glee. The first episode was rather captivating for me...

Hank and The Middle are just a way of trying to find these two a sitcom... I don't think it will work...

Parenthood is one of my favorite movies, but I am weary about the television transfer, especially since the movie came out so long ago... However, it has a great cast... Eastwick is another old movie transfer to television, with some good cast members, but I truly doubt it will survive

The most promising trailer to me was Modern Family, which looked funny and sophisticated at the same time...

I'm glad for Chuck, but why is ABC shooting themselves in the foot by moving Ugly Betty and taking off Samantha Who? What are they going to show? Grey's Anatomy (bleh) reruns and reality shows? Ugh... They are showing way too much Dancing with the Stars as it is!

They are gambling, big time... they are bringing in 11 new shows and reshuffling in effort to get back to the number 1 network spot... I think it will shoot them in the foot, but we will see

Last year, ABC canceled 3 shows that I absolutely loved. I wanted to swear off of them, but they still have Grey's, Desperate Housewives, Brothers & Sisters and Private Practice, so I can't swear off of them totally. I won't watch any of their new stuff though. I'm over the Bachelor/Bachelorette thing with last season and with Jillian as the new Bachelorette. (The three I loved that they got rid of were Cashmere Mafia, Men in Trees and The Women's Murder Club.. if it weren't for the ones I mentioned above, I would think they were trying to get rid of all their women viewers forever).
