I am so disappointed that it was cancelled. Is there a write in campaigne to have the CBS heads reconsider?
I cant believe you have canceled Without a Trace and The Unit. Whatever!!!
I DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT AWAITING MODERATION MEANS PLEASE REPLY YOU HAVE MY E MAIL ADDRESS
i have already left a very sad comment on the axing of without a trace why did you delete it
I am so very dissapointed that “Without a Trace has ended. I t has been the BEST show on TV.
So Sad.
What a shame A great show great story lines and a terriffic cast What we dont need is more garbage reality shows Enough is enough Bring back Without a trace please!!!!!
I was just looking for the season premiere date, and found out the show is not returning. What on earth are they thinking? If what I have read is correct, the reruns generate more viewings than some of their new shows…….what a boneheaded decision.
Without a trace is one of the best shows on TV, I just cannot believe that you cancelled it, I just found out now, I was wondering when the season premiere was going to air and found out it was cancelled without even a final show. Please do something about this.
CBS = idiots for cancelling Without A Trace.
I am totally flabbergasted. I cannot believe that CBS cancelled this long running, chair gripping, drama series. I have watched this show since it started. I watch every re-run on TNT also. To find out it has been cancelled is just heartbreaking. It was by far the best drama on CBS. Evidently, if it’s not “reality” these days, it don’t make it. How sad!
I am verry, verry mad and disappointed in CBS for canceling Without A Trace. My family has always thought CBS has had the best shows, but we are begining to think differently. We also really liked The Unit and Flash Point.
I am so very disappointed that “Without a Trace” has ended. It has been the best show on tv and my favorite for so long. What can I do to encourage it coming back? I am just really, really disappointed. There are so few shows that have it all: Good actors, good story, exciting, captivating….really a bad decision to let this one go.
I have been looking forward to the new 2010 season of this show. I was checking to see when the season opener airs, and now have just found that it has been canceled. I am so upset. This show has been excellent, and LaPaglia is awesome. I am grieved beyond words. If there is any chance, please bring it back. There are many fans committed to watching this show.
This was the best show of all. I just can’t believe it is being cancelled. The show always had such a good story to it , it was a decent show and the actors were awesome. I have been watching this show for years and now I can’t believe its not going to be on anymore. There is very little good shows on anymore and now its even worse. I don’t understand why this had to happen. I am very upset and disappointed to say the least, and I am speaking for alot of people. This really is a terrible… Read more »
