Good for Anna. Lose the tiresome humans and that will be a pretty good show.

Bad thing to lose Better Off Ted but not surprising. A smart show doesn't have much of a demographic.

From BOT, Veridian Dynamics: Competition. It makes everything better.

Bring Michael Moriarty back to Law and Order and throttle back on the nonstop political correctness. The series could go on for several more years.

It Sucks about Flash Forward, but I am glad to see Human Target is still kicking!

It seems like shows with complicated plot lines just aren't going to make it anymore.

I know maybe we can replace Flash Forward with yet another version of Wife Swap! [/sarc]

Mostly “D” Grade viewing. Law and Order was pretty PC and no Perry Mason.

I’m sure the producers minds are scratching to come up with some new, original “entertainment”.

How long do you think will that brainless show “Marriage Ref” last?

“The Gong Show” had more humor.

What is NBC gonna do without the Law and Order franchise? Reruns of Leno at 10ET/9CT?

==

Human Target and Lie to Me also get additional 13-episode seasons next fall.

==

The problem with V is a common problem with modern Hollywood scripts: too much verbalization scripting and too little action scripting. That makes it difficult to find a sustainable audience.

For those wanting an action script, it is boring.

FlashForward: #@($@(#$(@*! I liked that show and wanted to see where it was going. Why do I bother watching the first season of a serial drama? I should just wait for the second and then watch the first on DVD.

Better Off Ted: Also (#$@%(#$*%(#$! Good show, but too biting and satirical for most people who need a laugh track to know when to laugh.

Scrubs Canceled: Again? Almost never watched it.

“V” Renewed by ABC: The first 4 episodes were interesting, but I never got back in after the long break. Who shows 4 episodes and then takes a few months off. 24 has the right idea - 24 episodes, no breaks.

that NBC is likely to cancel Heroes,: Not surprising. It started off well, but it looked like the producer had no master plan for the story and kept adding things each season without a big vision. I guess the "big vision" shows take too long to get going and get canceled like Flash Forward.

Firefly: still off the air. :-(

I’ve actually never seen any of these shows.

Mostly use my TV for the Food Network, Myth Busters, It’s Me or the Dog, the First 24 & DVD movies.

Oh, we watch The Big Theory, The Office & South Park, but that’s it for weekly shows. And my husband does record Red Eye.

Good news about Law and Order, though I do miss a lot of the characters from the old shows. I don't recognize most of the other names.

L&O became so PC for me a few years ago that I only watch the reruns. With the loss of Lenny Brisco, Joe Farina, Adam Schiff, Arthur Branch, and a few others the program has become insufferably laden with white liberal guilt and a shameless soapbox for treating the courts as a venue to legislate.

It's nice to see such programs fail. It's like seeing an Intrade.com chart in decline for a liberal politician or a disappointing box office result for a Michael Moore film. The old (black and white) Perry Mason shows still hold up well. Perhaps it's because of the lack of liberal undertone.

Report: Fox Will Cancel “The Wanda Sykes Show“

When Affirmative Action meets "Comedy," Good Things don't happen.

Good riddance to that no-talent hack.
