18 shows axed! Why wasn't "Two and a Half Men" one of them?

At least Castle and Homeland Security weren't on the list.

I'm excited, maybe this could be good....Maybe they will get a brain and put something well written, well directed, original and intelligent on....

Then again, we're talking Hollyweird. They are prolly gonna use this as an opportunity to cheapen EVERYTHING. Doesn't matter, half of what I watch these days is from U.K. or Canada...

I looked over the premises for several of the new shows, the only one I'm interested in is about the Night Shift in an E.R. Should be good and gory, unless it's a comedy ... I always like to have a good med show on my list. Hasn't been one in a while...
There's one about an 8 yr old that comes back from the dead??? Really? How much could you do about that, unless he's now a vampire or something??

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.


Fringe wasn't canceled in the conventional sense. It got five seasons and was allowed to end as the producers wanted.

I watch nothing on network tv. I prefer uncensored shows like Game Of Thrones, Veep, Homeland, and Sopranos reruns.

(Original post burned up in atmo. This is really pissing me off! Trying to remember it all.)

Because I know you hate Community, Whozit....

They renewed Community!!! (Albeit, after a hit & miss S4.) Probably because it's the only Thursday night comedy on NBC left. Thank Neptune that "Advanced Introduction to Finality" wasn't the series finale!
*knocks on particle board*

However, I do agree with you on Two and a Half Men. Of that plus Big Bang Theory, I've maybe watched 15mins total. Obviously fake laugh-tracks just plain annoy me. Especially, when the "audience" goes ca-razy for something that just dry "Meh".

Whitney should've been caned (Yes, with a cane) immediately. And Go On was such an obvious Community wannabe.

Good to see a CSI bite the dust. Those shows are soooo boring. Whenever I actually sit down to watch one (pretty close to never), I ALWAYS fall asleep.

All of the shows I currently watch are safe:
Castle – No brainer.
Community – Duh-Doy! Now, let's get back to the S2 level of quality per episode!
Defiance- Ok, it just started.
Once Upon A Time – Oh crap, did I just type that out loud? I wants me some more Ruby screen time.

You can't count, Whozit. Even if you only consider the new shows from this season it is 24. I guess what you saw was they said there were 18 cancellations announced in just the past 48 hours, but quite a few others had gotten cut long before that.

Why couldn't Bones be on that list too?

And yet it isn't.

NBC's Thursday Night line up was once untouchable, now they should call it "Must Suck TV". Also, the only reason "Two and a Half Men" is doing as well as it is, is because it has "Big Bang" for a lead in. If it was any other night it would tank, ALL the charcters have become so unlikable and Judith has been written out.
