    I hate when shows are moved to different days of the week (sometimes without notice) and then cancelled because they had a "poor rating". Well, duh..you moved it around and never let it known what day it was on, IF it was on!

    There was a show on Fox (I think?) about a guy who woke up with all sorts of knowledge, but no idea who he was. John Doe (maybe?).

    Neat show, could've gone places, but they never had it consistently on tv, or on one day in particular. Cancelled after one season.

    I've been bit in the ass a few times on networks cancelling shows early too. If this show gets cancelled I will boycott Fox it's that good.

    Love this show. I haven't watched a Fox show since 24's run ended. It pulled a 2.9 last night, but that's because CBS was back to original programming. Hopefully ratings stay solid enough for them to finish the season and renew because I really like the show.

    They promise 14 shows in 14 weeks. I assume they won't be moving it to different days and times.

    Denny's really excited about them putting a new show on every week.

    ...well, I just watched episode one and the hook is starting to set in -- let's see if episodes 2 & 3 can keep it going!

    I hadn't heard about that before, but I googled it and saw that it was renewed for a 5th season initially but then cancelled.

    I thought it finished pretty nicely.

    I just watched that show on Hulu. I thought it was pretty good too. Crazy ending.

    I'm hoping it starts a trend. Most of the programming I like to watch has changed days or times, and is not reliably on every week.

    House, another Fox show, was notoriously like that.

    There's a new show called The Americans on FX that looks great, but I'm not going to start watching it until they are renewed for another season.

    I thought that junior FBI agent was going to be part of the cult, until he got the shit kicked out of him and nearly died. That pretty much killed that theory.

    I really hope they don't fuck up season 2. I don't want it to drag on just because people are watching. Some shows were meant to be only one season.
