Smith: Watch the Last Episode of the Ray Liotta Cancelled Drama
Primarily known for his work in movies, Ray Liotta got his start on the Another World soap opera. Several years later, in 1985, he landed the lead role on a short-lived TV series called Our Family Honor. It lasted just 12 episodes before being cancelled and Liotta didn’t accept another regular role on television until 20+ years later. Unfortunately, that show was Smith and it didn’t even last as long.
Though it was one of the most anticipated shows of the 2007-2008 season, Smith was cancelled after three episodes and weak ratings. It was the first cancellation of a television season that was chock full of serial dramas. Almost none of them made it to a second year.
Smith centers around Bobby Stevens (Liotta), the leader of a group of criminals. Bobby wants to give up crime after just a few more big jobs and wants to spend a quiet life with his unsuspecting wife Hope (Virgina Madsen) and their young children. The rest of his crew includes Tom (Jonny Lee Miller), Joe (Franky G), Jeff (Simon Baker), Annie (Amy Smart), Charlie (Shohreh Aghdashloo), Shawn (Mike Doyle), and, later, Marley (Elden Henson). Things don’t go as planned and FBI Agents Dodd (Chris Bauer) and Valez (Lisa Vidal) are soon hot on their tails.
Only seven episodes of Smith were produced and four didn’t make it to network television. Though it doesn’t properly conclude the series, here is the last episode of Smith. It’s called simply “Seven.” Take a look…

Hell yeah man,this show was ******* awesome.Think I only saw the first 3 episodes myself.The series was the best in the world in my opinion.Any series that can give you the general feeling of the plot in the first 10 minutes or less and use little or close to no verbal,bullshit,unnecessary,or deadbeat giveaway statements like the always used and so obvious statements like,”OMG,He’s heading for that getaway vehicle/OMG he’s gonna kill himself!!!?? (REALLY??!!!No ******* duh when he’s the only ******* person with a gun,and is the only person in the damn building you ******* einstein ****-tards)I wasn’table to rate it because I was in basic training at that time heh but If it was the ratings that got it cancelled,(and they were unexpectingly higher than usual)What kind of a jackass nooblet publisher would cancel a tv series that would have upped their profit,fame,respect?******* losers,that’s who.But I am not sure if it was CBS that was in charge of the series.I thought I saw it on FOX,but to whomever had the rights to it….YOUR ******* LOSERS AND YOU LOST MY TOTAL RESPECT FOR YOUR BUISNESS.I can only hope this doesn’t happen to the next highly rated,wanted by the people but hated by the publishers show/series,because if so,I’d start packing my bags and head to Miami beach for a long,boring life with little sleep.(And also prepare to have things thrown at you in public everywhere you go hah)If it was CBS,you ******* ******’s better never’ cancel The Unit,or The Office.Those are your two main running shows that are currently eeping you open for buisness.Better chec yourselves retards or maybe hire some teenagers with bigger imaginations to do your storyboards eh?
