As you can tell by looking at this page, several shows have already been cancelled this season. And unfortunately, the blood-bath isn’t over yet.
By May, numerous other TV shows will be cancelled and loyal viewers will have to say farewell to characters that they’ve come to know and love. There are more than 30 shows that are very possibly on the chopping block right now.
Some are almost certainly goners (Better Off Ted, Brothers) while others are very likely to return for another season (Fringe, Castle). Crazy things can happen though. Who would have guessed that NBC would end up ordering seven more episodes of Trauma after essentially cancelling it?
Round One: Which bubble show should be saved?
Total Votes: 1,613  Loading ... |
This is your turn to play network executive. Which bubble show would you save if you had the power to do so?
This is a smackdown-style game which means that we’ll be doing it in three rounds. You can only vote once right now but, next week, we’ll take the top winners and you can vote again on those.
Is choosing just one of these shows too tough? Is a TV programmer’s job an easy one? After you’ve voted, leave a comment below and share your decision. You might just convince someone to follow your lead!
UPDATE: This round is now closed. Please proceed to round two…
I voted for “Chuck” because it airs on NBC and they cancel everything, so it needs all the help it can get. But there are so many shows listed that I would be sad to see gone – “Fringe”, “Medium” and “Castle” to name a few.
I’m surprised to see “Mental” and “Flashpoint” on this list. I thought they had both been cancelled already, though I wouldn’t mind if they were brought back, along with “Defying Gravity” and “The Listener”.
their are many shows from the list i want to see them renewed.
i’ll class them from the more important to me:
24-better of ted-trauma-chuck-mercy-flashforward-fringe.
I look forward to every Wednesday night for Mercy. I have become addicted and can’t wait for it every week. I watch Treehouse all day long so it’s like a soap opera in the evening that I can watch when my kids are in bed. It’s great to watch and you get right into it.
Damn nearly all the shows I like are on here, Gary Unmarried, Medium, Old Christine,V, Flashforward,Lie to Me, Human Target & Cold Case. Somebody should get all these shows and make a network off of it lol.
Past life has died…it was three episodes old. 0% of voters are upset by this news…
I voted Medium but i also love Castle. I must also admit that I a enjoy watching Christine. I haven’t really gotten into any of the other bubble shows.
medium as they nearly got rid of it once before i love fringe castle mercy but am pretty sure they will be safe but i do love medium if i had a real choice it would be eastwick
Accidentally on Purpose is so funny! It is a great comedic relief to all the drama and crimes shows that are on TV right now. I wish people would give it a chance, it is truly a great and entertaining show.
Agreed..but there were a few shows on that list that I would be devastated to lose.
Lie To Me is a great show also, I don’t know whose butt heads seem to go up at night but nobody is breathing fresh air at these networks. This is unreal. So many good shows are being cancelled and reality bull crap shows are prevailing. WTF is going on with these guys? I’m really disappointed that Saving Grace is being discontinued, and now to find out that Lie To Me is also? Its infuriating, and none of the network execs give a rats azz what we all think. I’ve been reading some people stating that they’re going to boycott… Read more »
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
I love Chuck, would miss Medium, and stick with Heroes out of some sense of loyalty (despite the growing tedium), but if I had to pick one, I’d have to pick Better off Ted. It’s brilliantly quirky, and unapologetically funny. TV is becoming so sad — that it can’t support a great comedy, but can produce a never-ending string of vapid self-involved reality shows.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE KEEP
ONE TREE HILL!!!!!! 😀 <3
so what if Lucas and Peyton are gone, and not as many people are watching it. you still have to keep it for the ones who do! I LOVE ONE TREE HILL! get rid of V... its not that good. or melrose place, thats not doing so good either.
ALSO KEEP
VAMPIRE DIARIES! I WANNA SEE ELENA BECOME A VAMPIRE! 😀
Oh please do NOT cancel Fringe!! We love that show!!!!
KEEP FRINGE !
Human Target and Better Off Ted
I chose to keep Medium on the list, but I also LOVE Cold Case and Lie to Me, as well as the forgotten.
No Question About It, Better Off Ted!!!! It’s A Great Show, Critics Love It, It’s Just Not In The Right Timeslot. It deserves to be picked up more than any of these shows.
