2008-2009 TV Show Cancellations!

Thank you for your time Pushing Daisies.
Thank you for your time Pushing Daisies.

Now that pretty much every show has wound down its season and is signing off for the year, I thought it would be best to let it be known those shows that won’t be seeing another year. You may have read about some of your favorite shows being canceled but I thought I’d run down the list of the major network cancellations, leaving a few comments along the way of course, and let you see what all they’ve decided to give that good old death bringing axe.

ABC

According to Jim-I’d say it’s about time. The worst of the fat man with the hot wife subgenre of sitcoms.
Boston Legal-About time, I’m not a huge fan of James Spader.
Dirty Sexy Money
Eli Stone
Homeland Security USA
In the Motherhood
Life on Mars
Opportunity Knocks
Pushing Daisies-Now here’s a show that deserved to live on and on, yet it lived by the old adage of original and creative shows, people would rather watch Dancing with the Stars than this. Check the last remaining episodes they’ve decided to burn off on the next few Saturdays.
Samantha Who?-This show looked somewhat cute. Kind of in the vein of Pushing Daisies, but since ABC canceled that show as well I guess this one didn’t have much chance either.
Surviving Suburbia-I actually heard this Bob Saget sitcom was pretty good, but I never watched an episode, and apparently no one else did either.
The Unusuals

CBS

Eleventh Hour
The Ex List
Harper’s Island
Swingtown
The Unit-Dennis Haysbert will find something else, won’t he? 24 a callin’?
Without a Trace-Finally the procedural muck is getting canceled. Will any of the CSI’s soon be next?! Not likely.
Worst Week

CW

4REAL
13 – Fear Is Real
Easy Money
Everybody Hates Chris
The Game-This show was cute and mildly funny. Probably deserved to last longer
In Harm’s Way
Privileged-I’m glad some of the tween junk is getting axed too. The last thing we need is more young good looking high school students whining about non-actual problems.
Reaper-My feelings on this show I’ve put out there enough, but I’m still hoping for a Hail Mary at the last minute to save it. I’m looking at you syndication!
Stylista
Valentine

FOX

Do Not Disturb-This lasted two seconds.
Hole in the Wall-Weirdest idea for a game show ever. And as I cam to find out, it looked like nobody ever won.
King of the Hill-I bid ado to this show. I didn’t watch the last few seasons but I never missed an episode of the early stuff.
MADtv-Good riddance.
Prison Break
Sit Down, Shut Up
TalkShow With Spike Feresten
Terminator: The Sarah Connor ChroniclesWas this show any good? I never watched it but it seemed like just more exploitation of a series that didn’t really need to continue on.

NBC

America’s Toughest Jobs
American Gladiators-Did they actually think this resurgence would work? I guess it was while the writer’s were on strike, and sadly the summer has little else to offer.
The Baby Borrowers
Celebrity Circus
Celebrity Family Feud
The Chopping Block
Crusoe
ER
Fear Itself
Kath & Kim-This show was decent but not overly funny. I liked Selma Blair in it though, she was wickedly annoying and snobbish
Kings-Another show that lasted two seconds, and for good reason, it looked soooo bad.
Knight Rider
Last Comic Standing
Life
Lipstick JungleSex and the City this was not. Or maybe it was, I don’t know, I didn’t watch it and few others did too.
Medium-Though I heard this was moving to CBC.
Momma’s Boys
Most Outrageous Moments
My Name Is Earl-This show had four seasons, three that were good and the last that was less than so, good bye our somewhat funny friend.
My Own Worst Enemy
Nashville Star
