I didn't get the idea behind Heroes coming back. Everyone I knew that watched it had given up on it before it ended. Maybe the DVD sales were overly strong.

I really need to write my rant on what a hack I find Ryan Murphy to be.

I don't hate him or his shows, but his shows end up the same way. They tend to start well, each season of AHS started well enough, but then they become muddled messes. He shoves pop culture references in every hole he can find, and beats the viewer over the head with the fact that he's gay. I hated Scream Queens because of these ideas, and the fact that it didn't know if it wanted to be a comedy or horror. Plus it was just Glee meets Scream without the singing.

Also, the next season of "America's Top Model" will be it's last. Oh, and SyFy cancelled "Defiance" and "Dominian" (aka "Hey, let's turn that awful movie "Legion" into a movie!")

In rating news: "Truth Be Told" (on NBC) debuted to a 0.7 rating, and "Minority Report" doesn't stand a chance. Also, "Dr. Ken" got a full season order.

The next season of Mythbusters will be its last. I stopped watching regularly years ago.

They started running out of myths and the writing was on the wall after they dumped the build team.

Dr. Ken got full order? Wonder if it is a contract thing. I didn't high hopes and it is still pretty bad, IMO.

The readings have been really good, especially for a Friday. It's really not surprising.

I don't look at ratings and just thought the show itself is shitty, which is my surprise. Can't see too many people hanging around, unless it is getting love from a desired demographic or like you said, retaining ratings on a Friday

After giving it a second season, HBO has decided to take it back and cancelled The Brink.

Way to be on the ball, Gary Floyd... a whopping 3 posts above you.

Damn. I never watched it, because I'm not into horror/crime drama, but I think that Erika Christensen is hot, so I was rooting for the show to do well, for her sake.

The show has a lot of problems with anachronisms (mostly musically) but the meat and potatoes of the show is good. Real good. I'm pissed they have 5 episodes in the can ready to go and they're not even going to air them.

ABC cancelled "Wicked City"

Didn't this show just start?

Third episode in.

I'm not surprised by this. It had a .4 rating. That's the lowest one of the big 4 networks has had in a really long time.

It's interesting that this is the first show cancelled but I was reading an article saying that networks were giving a little more leeway between DVR numbers and streaming services picking up shows, but at a .4 rating, they had almost no choice but to pull it.

It also had the snooty British guy from Gossip Girl who is pretty much the worst ever.

The series just looked like a broke ass Game of Thrones. I don't know anyone personally who's talked about watching it

I had recorded it but never watched. Guess I'll just delete all 9 off my DVR now. Cool.
