It is so unfortunate that NBC canceled “Studio 60″. It was one of the most smartly written series on TV today. But alas, just like another of Aaron Sorkin’s short lived shows, it has gone the way of “Sports Night”. At least SN had two seasons before it was canceled.

Jericho, Veronica Mars, Close to Home, Crossing Jordan? Fans and viewers get involved in these shows. Yes we tivo because we work nights but that should count. There are people who stay home Friday nights and Saturday nights. There is nothing to watch. 18 year olds do not have the buying power of the 40 year old generation. Play to us. The least you can do is give us endings that wrap everything up. These long hiatuses are bull. Give us a story to watch, not more crappy reality series. There are two many reality series.

blippity bloppity bloop, ur ratings are full of poop.
donnelys rock, realities are crock there is ur scoop.

veronica has a huge cult following, tivo has botched the sit down and watch now ratings format up, and its easier to catch most programs on the net newayz.

networks have mishandled its representation of so many shows that TV itself is becoming passe.

a revolution in modern programing is forth coming, reality shows will soon bite the big bullet and fade, a resurrection in quality writing is due, and sitcoms may have to become funny again…

Godspeed

I’m really glad to have a story half read to me just to have it end before finishing! Veronica Mars was an awesome show, but instead, the CW feels that all their repeats they show each day are more important and bring in more ratings! Whatever! It doesn’t even take a brain to realize Veronica Mars was a great show with a great storyline! Why are they so blind to see that the show is awesome?!! What’s next, Supernatural?? I mean, maybe it’s too boring for them, lets add even more repeats of old shows in that place too, then we can call it CW-Crap World TV!
