Tim-

If you’re insinuating that the reason that VM was canceled was b/c those shows (Supernatural, Smallville & Top Model) had viewers, let me set the record straight. I decided not to watch VM long before I became a Supernatural fan. I watched an episode or two of VM and it just never kept my attention. And really Supernatural (and Smallville for that matter) are in a completely different genre than VM was and therefore, would attract a different type of viewer. So to blame Supernatural for VM low ratings is ridiculous and frankly I’m getting tired of hearing that complaint. I’m sorry you fans got such a lousy series finale (b/c I did catch that and if I had been a VM fan I would have pitched a fit), but quit blaming Supernatural fans for your show being canceled. Our ratings aren’t that great. If anything you should be blaming the powerhouse shows on other networks that aren’t as great as everyone thinks.

All that said, I do think America’s Top Model is one of the most awful shows I’ve ever had the misfortune of watching, and I’d love my Christmas present to be that it be taken off the air. Okay I take that back. I want my Christmas present to be the end of this strike. But it’s a close second…

It’s not nice or naughty, just kind of boring I guess…

LIFE, like Monk but only more annoying.

Wgasupporter, I completely agree with you about Dawn Ostroff for giving Veronica Mars Fans a low blow by waiting until the last minute only to cancel the show. What a low point of the year.

Also what about USA Network for cancelling the Dead Zone and especially The 4400?!
Sorry, A-W but Traveler didnt have enough viewership.
Unlike these shows which have a longtime fan base. Shame on them!

Yeah, Damian Lewis is doing a wonderful job, and so is Sarah Shahi. I really hope (for you) that you’ll catch on, because it really is worth it.

Fred, I’ve seen a few episodes of LIFE, and while I’m not a huge fan of weekly procedurals, star Damian Lewis keeps me coming back. And thanks to hulu, I may actually catch up on the episodes I’ve missed this fall.

Dude…you’re lucky you didn’t keep “stalk” in there as that’s far from the truth. But I will admit to the swooning, but not so much over Zach Levi as the entire Chuck series.

What you say is true about NBC, but you should not forget this : they also picked up for a full season the best new series of the season : Life.

Seriously, if you haven’t really tried that show and thought it would be just another cop-drama with a twist or boring based on its pilot/premise, you have to try it. It is so much more than that !

Ever since it started it was great, brilliant even, from both acting & writing, and it just kept getting better and better. This show is fantastic, and while I hate NBC for so many things, I am really grateful that they are giving this show a chance, it has already enterred my Top 2 favorite series, I freaking love it !
