The tv season 2009/2010

This thread is something of a "service" to others like me that enjoy good tv series or good movies.
As I have freakishly huge workloads on a regular basis and am no longer in the age to go out every night, I like to relax in front of the tv. Consequently, I'm always following the developments and trends in tv land. So, here's what's awaiting you this season.

Inside The Box (new series by the Shonda Rhimes, creator of Grey's Anatomy), The Law, Don't Try This At Home and This Litte Piggy: At the moment it looks like only one of these show will be produced and then go on the air early in 2010. Guess which... Inside The Box

what the fuck you lookin at?
so, just like every other night of the week there won't be shit worth watching...
 
Wow, I had thought My Name Is Earl was actually pretty popular. :dunno:
 
Remember when they used to show new episodes in the fall and then reruns of the series in the summer?

Now they just constantly come out with new shows that no one likes and they end up getting canceled and they never show reruns so if you miss an episode then you will never be able to see it again, which for many shows means that the storyline will be incomprehensible.

I won't be watching anything next season because I'm not letting these bastards extort me into having to pay to watch regular TV (buy a digital converter box.)

It's either (someone else's) Tivo, or internet for me.
 
It looks like they are cancelling shows (According to Jim) and premiering the exact same show next season. (Hank)
 
They also move the time slot around which fucks up the show too. All these guys that run the television networks are idiots.
 
Life has been cancelled. A great series which was screwed up by NBCs poor program planning/scheduling and now has to take the blame (and the fall).
Pushing Daisies has been cancelled. The three remaining episodes will air from May 30th on.

Those are the 2 cancellations that piss me off. :mad:
 
"King of the Hill" and "My Name is Earl" not returning is just unAmerican IMO!

They should have gotten rid of "Boston Legal" along time ago and brought back "the Practice".

Worst of all, I hope these cancellations aren't to make way for more of these brain-numbing "freakality" shows.:(

Here Zombie, Zombie, Zombie...
Oh hey 24 will be coming back. Here let me tell you the plot for the next season.
CTU will encounter a possible conspiracy involving one or all of the following. A nuke, Bio weapon or Chemical weapon.
Someone will be tortured for information.
The President will be involved in some way, shape or form.
Annoying cast members will return and attempt to do impossible things with computers.
There will be some shooting, and some dangerous driving.
At least one of the characters will yell... Give me the information!
Oh yeah, and there's going to be a really annoying beeping sound with a clock.

Hate to spoil it for you.
 
No mention of NBC's "Chuck", which had a Kick-ass season finale, and is a really good show. I hope the fan ruckus will convince NBC to keep it for at least one more season.

I hear you but I still find it to be a pretty compelling show. There are still enough twists they can weave into the environment of the show.

The recent Tony Almeida twist was pretty interesting IMO.
 
I'm pissed that "The Unit" and "My name is Earl" are canceled. Both were great shows. But I am glad to see "Burn Notice" and "Sons of Anarchy" will both be back.

"Burn Notice" is my favorite show. I stumbled on it once and was hooked ever since. I love Fiona's character but aestectically she REALLY needs to put on some weight. I hate that Carla got smoked....she was the sexiest....until Weston's old flame Samantha showed up.....Hard to believe that was "Dizz" from Starship Troopers but Dina Meyer looks better now than she did ten years ago IMO.
