The end of a television era... many series are ending.

[quote name='gofishn']I've become a huge House fan as of late. The medical stuff is pretty much bs, but House is just a great character with some hillarious lines.[/QUOTE]

Same here.

Gamestop has the DVD set for $25 used if you can find it, $22.50 after the 10% card, which is more then 50% off of the new MSRP.
 
i heard invasion wouldnt be back in the fall but as a mid season replacement. you know it wont follow LOST anymore cause it lost way too much ratings.


i would expect most of the UPN shows to get the ax since UPN and WB are merging into one and they only have i think like 12 hours to fill.

has anyone hear anything about SUPERNATURAL . if it gets the axe im sure sci fi will pick up the series.

and sadly i think the best new show i like this season i heard wont be back SURFACE. i wanted to see Nim eat everyone LOL
 
I bought Veronica Mars S1 two weeks ago from Target for $22.99. I had bought it on a whim, it's a great show and I'm only a little over half way through. Plus, as a bonus, it's a good show to watch with the girlfriend.

and RIP AD,
I'll send you salmon rolls in heaven.
 
The only shows I really follow are 24, My Name is Earl and The Office. That 70's show was great up until cast members starting leaving and this last season has been kind of a pain to watch because almost all of the humor is just not funny, but at least the previous seasons were good. The King of Queens was funny back during seasons 2-4 but now its leading down the same path that That 70's show, where its starting to become not funny. The other shows everybody has mentioned I never really watched because all of them seemed the same and none of them really seemed too interesting so I don't really care if they get cancelled.
 
[quote name='eldad9']And just how is another season of Prison Break possible?

Not saying it's not possible, just wondering. Maybe the last season was all a dream?[/QUOTE]

I read in some entertainment magazine that the creators think they may have enough for 3 seasons. IMO they should have set it up as a one season shot with a great climax. But I guess milking it as long as possible is where the money's at.

I wish a show creator with a great rep - like Joss Whedon or Shawn Ryan - would somehow be able to create a string of original series each designed to last one season with a tight story arc and awesome climax.

Hope that thief returns it was pretty good never heard much about the ratings.
[/QUOTE]

Report I read said the ratings were REALLY bad, so I doubt it'll be back. Too bad, the show really came into it's own by the end of the run IMO.
 
No one has mentioned "Bones" yet - I think it's the best new show on TV. It's like CSI or a non-paranormal X-Files but way funnier and not as depressing.

That was one that I watched 5-10 minutes of the premiere and decided to pass on. I already have so much set for the Tivo that I tend to be pretty harsh with snap decisions on new shows. I'm almost like 'Okay this stinks, whew, don't have to fool with finding time to watch it!' :mrgreen:

I know what you mean - I have the same problem. I passed on Prison Break because of Monday Night Football and the wife already DVRs something in that time period. I also missed out on 24 and Veronica Mars when they started and now I really feel like I'm missing out...
 
[quote name='Roufuss']What do you mean? I don't watch 24 on the television, so do you mean a 7 to 8 month wait on a new season, or a 7 to 8 month on them to even confirm a new one is there?

Because, cmon, 24 is Fox's big money maker, of course it will come back.[/quote]

To be correct, I think American Idol is Fox's home run hitter.
 
Unless I'm blind, I'm suprised no one on here mentioned that they watch The Shield. Supposedly, Shawn Ryan is debating whether to continue after the second "part" of season 5. As much as I'd hate to see it go, I'd rather it end in a bang than die with a fizzle

Sad to say, The Shield completely slipped my mind, as I had thought for sure they'd do atleast 1 more season. I just wish they'd make longer seasons (closer to 20). I hope Shawn Ryan is able to have The Shield and The Unit alternately and keep them both running well.

I really hope they bring back Supernatural for another season. I am the kiss of fucking death for a TV show. If I watch it and I like it, it's gone the next season for sure.
 
I really hope they bring back Invasion for a 2nd. And a early death was the sci fi show wow i cant even remember the name. The ummmmmm the one with the .... midget? Whatever that one was it was good. Also i just read that 7th HEAVEN might be back!?!?!?!?! I kid you not. They better bring back Supernatural. And also They better not cancle Veronica Mars. I mean it this station CW better be like 80% maybe even more WB and only a few % UPN. Those UPN comedies SUCK.

i think your talking about threshold. that got cancelled back in Dec
 
Yeah thats it. That show was good. Also im still reeling over the cancellation of Joan of Arcadia last year. Sucks so much ass. Granted we got Ghost Whisperer out of the deal but it still doesnt change the fact that it sucks.
 
[quote name='Duo_Maxwell']Rumor has it Deadwood won't be back after the upcoming season 3.[/QUOTE]

Where did you hear that???? If it's true, that's awful news, I love Deadwood.
 
[quote name='Ikohn4ever']95% of the shows on tv are unwatchable at best[/QUOTE]


I agree, not to mention commercials are enough to make me turn off live coverage of the second coming of Christ.
 
I don't buy many products, but I love commercials, they're pretty good these days.

I think Gilmore Girls has been pretty consistent with the humor, SVU still remains a fun watch.

Other than that I just watch late night toons on Cartoon Network. TV is more to my liking now than it used to be.
 
[quote name='craven_fiend']Hell has frozen over, War at Home is returning.[/quote]

Plot for Any War at Home Episode:

Rapaport needs to say at least 26 offensive things per episode and 8 to 11 things that would make any idiotic viewers at home go "I CAN'T BELIEVE HE SAID THAT!!"

There must be two "push button" crises each week that involve something either sexually taboo for network comedies (or used to be back in, oh, the mid-80's) or something racially/religiously/ethnically offensive.

These problems may or may not involve the children and, if any child is left out in particular, they may show up once or twice in the episode, say two lines, and disappear for the rest since they matter that much.



Here, write your own War at Home episode in less than 90 seconds!

"Dave comes home from work early to hear Larry in the bathroom, making strange sounds (he's actually working on a chemistry project). After discovering three standard issues of Sports Illustrated issues lying around the bathroom, both Dave and Vicky freak out about Larry's sexuality once more. In the meantime, Hillary decides to get a tattoo on her breast by Mack, a 26 year-old gas station owner from down the street, with HILARIOUS CONSEQUENCES."

I swear, if that ends up being an episode I'm going to call for some royalties.
 
CW is bringing 7th heaven back for another season for 13 episodes on their new network. The story is yahoo go check it out.
 
[quote name='craven_fiend']A channel without commercials, now that'd be awesome.[/QUOTE]

I TIVO everything and skip the commercials. Nothing like a show getting really good and they go to a 5 minute commercial.
 
[quote name='Chris in Cali']I agree, not to mention commercials are enough to make me turn off live coverage of the second coming of Christ.[/QUOTE]


The second coming brought to you by Polmolive.
 
Why does everyone hate stacked and war at home? I loved war at home and I've always had a soft spot for pamela anderson since VIP, as I think she's funny. I just bought the VIP dvd and am hoping for a stacked one.

Though I hope King of Queens stays on. I swear that show is worth watching just to stare at Carrie (leah remini).
 
[quote name='crazytalkx']The only show I'm sad about having ended is Justice League Unlimited :cry:[/quote]

Yeah, but is there going to be a new season next year? I dont get what the anti-life equation is.

I have to disagree with War at Home and Stacked. I find the guy from War at Home to be incredibly annoying. As far as Stacked goes, Pammy still looks good but I don't really find the show all that funny. I do agree with King of Queens though, Kevin James is hillarious and Carrie is smokin'.
 
I want a new Joss Whedon show, no matter what it is. I miss Angel/Buffy/Firefly and have to resort to the dvd's when I need a fix. As far as the show's that are ending this year, I will miss charmed the most.
 
Better enjoy the final 2 eps of Invasion



None of the rookie series McPherson fielded for the fall 2005 lineup will return: "Invasion," "Commander in Chief," "Night Stalker," "Hot Properties" and "Freddie." And only two series introduced at midseason will be back during the 2006-07 season: "What About Brian," with the Brian character inspired by Brecksville High School graduate Brian David Cinadr, and the reality show "American Inventor," which likely will begin its second edition in January.


sucks SURFACE Has also been canned

That still doesn't rule out Invasion as a mid-season replacement but yeah, it's probably dead.

It's my favorite show, but I didn't mention it because it IS coming back - as you mention. After the run will be the time for mourning.

Just watched the last JLU off Tivo today. :cry: I held off a few days because I didn't want to put that last epi behind me :lol:
