And the Next Cancelled Show is...

[Relayer1]

Ugh. I love James Spader, but I'm not sure I can handle another year of The Blacklist. Maybe if they got rid of most of the FBI characters completely, maybe it would improve.

I wasn't aware that there was anyone else in The Blacklist.

Maybe a rewatch is required...

The Blacklist is not a show you revisit. You enjoy James Spaders performance as Red, plus Aram, Samar, Dembe and Cooper and tolerate everything else. However much like White Castle hamburgers, you enjoy it initially. Then all the horrible gas and diarrhea and you swear to yourself, never again. Until next week when you roll through the Drive-Thru of death once again.

I don't know. I pretty much gave up on the show three or four episodes ago and haven't missed it.

I fear you are correct. It's all about Spader isn't it ? I wouldn't be watching without him...

 

[bigdaddy]

As someone who just can't watch that crap I really wish they would cancel it so James Spader can be in a good show. Have they finally came out and say that he's the FBI agent's dad yet?

 

[137th Gebirg]

Not yet, but the show has tried almost every way imaginable to infer that to be the case.

Which probably means it isn't.

Unless, of course, it is...

Gnaaaahhhh!!

I'm glad I gave up on it now. It's like The Following, the FBI is so damn useless I can't watch it.

 

[cardinal biggles]

It just isn't worth the grief to see Spader chew scenery. Fortunately I have the final season of The Practice and all five seasons of Boston Legal if I want to see him give a good performance.

 

[Tom Hendricks]

I just don't understand, they can write Red as a competent, compelling character. They are proficient with Aram, Samar, Dembe and Cooper. Yet everyone else is a buffoon, its infuriating. There is a really good show under the mess that is the Blacklist. It shows through once in awhile.

 

[Guy Gardener]

I'm waiting for the crossover between Black List and Blindspot.

 

[Sto-Vo-Kory]

Bitten (SyFy) to end after third season.

 

[Guy Gardener]

It ended with me in the first episode when she sat down with her therapist in episode, talking about her felling towards group sex in (full) wolf form: "I know they can't help it, but I really don't feel respected."

‘Homeland’ & ‘The Affair’ Renewed By Showtime

Showtime has renewed flagship drama series Homeland for a sixth season and its companion, sophomore The Affair, for a third. The pickups come with two more episodes left in the shows’ current seasons.

The Emmy-winning Homeland, which righted the ship creatively in Season 4 after a lackluster third season, has been a solid ratings performer, drawing a 2.4 million viewers in Live+3 for its most recent episode. The Golden Globe-winning The Affairs has been softer, most recently logging a 1.4 million viewers. Still, both shows have edged the other original series on premium cable in the fourth quarter.

Produced by Fox 21 Television Studios, Homeland‘s Season 5 was executive produced by Alex Gansa, Howard Gordon, Alexander Cary, Chip Johannessen, Lesli Linka Glatter, Meredith Stiehm, Avi Nir, Ran Telem, Gideon Raff and Patrick Harbinson.

The Affair was created by Sarah Treem and Hagai Levi who as executive produce along with Anya Epstein and director Jeffrey Reiner.

I guess even you have your limits, eh Guy?

 

[Guy Gardener]

I have it all on a hard drive filed away perfectly, I just need someone to credibly bully me into watching it.

Same thing happened with Supernatural, Pretty Little Liars, Vampire Diaries and Teen Wolf.

I had standards I upheld for years and years and years, until I lost them.

But it's the outright lying that I couldn't stand.

There was this half naked flirty magazine cover of Laura Vandervoort which said that Laura was TV's "sexist" werewolf. The gall! This was a while back, so the truth was to any bugger with two eyes that Kristen Hauger from Being Human was TV's sexiest Werewolf.

How am I expected to trust the perpetrators of such maniacal untruths?

Weird name for a show - "Sophomore the affair".

Eh. Hollywood reporting isn't exactly renowned for its mastery of proper English.

Fox's 'Wayward Pines' Renewed for Second Season

Fox is returning to Wayward Pines.

The network on Wednesday handed out a second-season renewal for the limited series originally executive produced by M. Night Shyamalan and Chad Hodge. Hodge, who developed the property based on Blake Crouch's book and served as showrunner, will not return for season two. Mark Friedman (Believe, The Forgotten) will take over as showrunner.

The drama will be back for a second season of 10 episodes in summer 2016 and will see the series pick up after the events of the season-one finale, when a new arrival in the mysterious town arrives to find himself in the middle of a rebellion as the residents battle over how to preserve the endangered human race.

 

[Beagleman]

Great genre shows like Minority Report will (most probably) see the axe and and stuff like Wayward Pines gets a second season, this world we live in... it isn't fair.

 

[TheSeeker]

I really hated that time jump at the end of the last episode. Otherwise I thought it was a fun show to watch. Pretty unbelievable, but fun.
