The first cancelled show of the season should have been Threshold.
It’s NOT The War At Home?
Proof that only good shows buy it at Fox.
Chris O’Donnell started acting? Did I miss a memo?
I guess FOX had to cancel the show to open a spot on the schedule for the return of Stacked?
Damn.
Head Cases was funny.
Nice last lines to be broadcast:
It was starting to get more interesting, too – what with the contrasting paralegals coming onboard.
Fox has at least a dozen shows that have very little going for them – at least less going for them than Head Cases. (The War At Home should have been cancelled as soon as the crack ran out at the first development meeting.)
Why so quick to axe the promising stuff?
Nanny 911 and Trading Spouses: Meet Your New Mommy get the slot? Please, rub a little more fecal matter into the wound.
The thing is, they often don’t necessarily know what they’ll be up against. Lost changed its time slot from last year. So has The West Wing, Arrested Development, Malcolm in the Middle, The King of Queens, 2 1/2 Men, Boston Legal, America’s Top Model, George Lopez, Veronica Mars, One Tree Hill, Alias, Smallville, Everwood, Yes Dear and The Bernie Mac Show, among others. So just because they know what used to play in that time slot doesn’t mean it hasn’t changed. And once they pick a slot for a show, they can’t adjust it without throwing everything on their schedule out of whack.
Um… Lost didn’t change it’s timeslot. It was on at 9:00 PM on Wednesdays. During the summer, they showed the reruns at 10:00 but the original episodes were always at 9:00.
This is the only explanation I can think of for how reality tv got so popular. A couple asshole executives were sitting around trying to figure out how to cut costs and one of them said, “I know! Let’s have a tv show and not pay the actors!”
Actually, last season it was on at 8 pm Eastern/7 Central. Over the summer it was 10/9, and now it’s at 9/8. Last season it was followed by “Alias” and then “Eyes.”
I wonder how long NBC will let Joey continue?
