I think Justified might focus a little too much on the negative folks in Eastern KY and not bring up the good ones once in awhile. But it is hard to say that any other show on TV is better. Oliphant in anything is pretty much better than anything withoiut Olyphant. ---

Good Luck Charlie is going off the air!!???!!?? 😃 😃 😃 REALLY? 😃 😃 😃 (Of course, they’ll replace it with something just as irritating (Disney TV _sux_), but at least that show is gone, Gone, GONE!) ---

Wilfred is the only one I watch. The finale will either be “Ryan’s insane” or “Magic exists”, with an incredibly small chance of “Everyone’s been fucking with Ryan for the past four years.” The last option would be the only entertaining one. ---

Okay, gang. I hope I can be forgiven for bailing out on the 50% watch thing. Here’s how it looks after 75 Votes: ```auto =========================================== View Poll Results: Which of these 16 ending TV shows will you miss the most?

But I’m of the opinion that our “don’t give a shit” crowd has had its say – statistically speaking. Carry on! ---

_How I Met Your Mother_ is the only one I am still watching and honestly I will miss it but it is time. The show has run its course. _Boardwalk Empire_ should probably have been one season. The first season was great but after that it was boring. ---

On this list, I have only ever watched three of them (True Blood, Warehouse 13 and Boardwalk Empire). Warehouse 13 is a wretched sign of SyFy’s decline in my opinion, though I don’t fault anyone who does like it. True Blood is interesting, but has for a long time been substituting quantity for quality. Boardwalk Empire is the only one I’ll miss even a little bit, but even it is mostly interesting to me as a sort of historical documentary. I’m not emotionally invested in any of the characters or plots. So put me down for none of the above. ---

“Not a blessed…” There are only three on the list I’ve ever watched: _Justified, Boardwalk Empire_, and _True Blood_, and since I don’t have HBO, I’ve only ever seen one or two eps of those. While I’ve liked _Justified_ when I’ve seen it, I can’t seem to be arsed to make the timne to watch it regularly. There are several on the list I’ve never even heard of. Another sign of age-related loss of hipness, I guess. ---

What **El Kabong** said. I’ll miss **Justified** but it won’t outlive its welcome, and we’ll see Olyphant and Goggins et al in other things. I have no doubt that the show’s creators will be back with something equally good. ---

I have no doubt that the show’s creators will be back with something equally good. It really annoys me that there’s been so little award-awareness and respect for the show. They keep on keeping on in spite of it but it really irks me at how much crap is still going strong elsewhere, and _Justified_ is basically being ignored by anybody but us precious few. ---

I’ve never found him particularly funny or interesting but he seemed generally inoffensive. Is it because of his part in the all-round jackassery of leaving his show, Conan’s brief stint in the time slot and then Leno’s return to it? I can’t think of any other things he’s done to warrant anything worse than indifference. Some people who are fans of the other late night guys hate him because their favorite guy hates him. Letterman hates him because he didn’t get the Tonight Show. Conan hates him because he couldn’t keep The Tonight Show. If only all the people who say they love Conan actually watched the show, he might still be there. Still others think his jokes are too lame and he telegraphs the punch line. ---
