It looks like, as feared, _Journeyman_ will end once the last two episodes are aired in the next two weeks. According to the _[Hollywood Reporter](http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/news/e3ib294fb0f03a3a300abe07db6eb9dc75b)_, > [@](#): > > NBC had until Tuesday to give a full-season pickup to the time-travel drama starring KevinMcKidd. The network let that option lapse, practically canceling the 20th Century Fox TV-produced series, which posted its lowest adults 18-49 rating (1.7 rating/8 share) on Monday without a “Heroes” lead-in. That’s terribly disappointing. I actually found JM more engaging than _Heroes_ this season, and had really picked up steam in the last few weeks (with last week’s rather weak Christmas episode an exception). The sliver of good news, however, is that apparently the last two episodes will start to answer some of the questions about what is causing Dan to travel through time. Still, I have a hunch it will an unsatisfyingly premature ending. ☹ ---

Figures. In general, the networks suck. It’s to the point now where I don’t even want to start watching new shows. ---

[QUOTE=RikWriter] Figures. In general, the networks suck. It’s to the point now where I don’t even want to start watching new shows. [/QUOTE] My thoughts exactly. I didn’t start watching _Heroes_ until late last season, figuring it would be cancelled anyway and I wouldn’t want to even try getting into it. The ads for _Journeyman_ looked mildly interesting, but I never tuned in. We’re not a Neilsen family, but _mea culpa_. ---

I didn’t particularly like the show, but my husband is very disappointed. I kept warning him, but he doesn’t listen! ---

I Tivo’d the whole season waiting to see if it would be picked up. I guess I can delete them unwatched. ☹ StG ---

Damn. I liked this show. I actually have **Heroes** from 12/3 on tape, unwatched, but I made sure I watched the 12/10 **Journeyman**. ---
