Close call between Charlie's Angels and How to Be a Gentleman. I'll go with Charlie's Angels.

Hawaii 5-0 is on the list? I don't watch it, but has it fallen that much this year?

And of the choices you list, my guess would be Prime Suspect. (Although I guess NBC can't cancel everything and that might save it.)

 

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

Hawaii Five-O is in no danger of early cancellation, nor really of cancellation at all this season. It's winning its timeslot and it's currently the only 10pm drama show drawing over a 3 in the demo.

 

[gh4chiefs]

WEll that's kind of what I thought, and hence my confusion in seeing it in a potentially cancelled show thread.

 

[timothy]

with this one I am going with H8R and Ringer on this one.
even though I really like SMG.....


I really like:

Suburgatory
Harry's Law
Prime suspect
a gifted man
person of interest
terra nova

 

[Captain Craig]

How to be a Gentleman

The CW's whole schedule is performing poorly and they have almost no shows to replace cancellations, so their low-rated shows will survive longer than they would on other networks.

Hart of Dixie. Saw an episode and the lead role simply isn't very believable. She's far too young to be playing a doctor. She looks like a female Justin Bieber. It of course doesn't help that she's not playing the role with conviction and instead comes across as a valley girl who just stumbles around and doesn't know her stuff. Don't see this lasting.

 

[Temis the Vorta]

H8R (CW)

 

[gh4chiefs]

Hart of Dixie.

This isn't really relevant to this thread, but it's one of those things that made me go and and I just had to share.

Was visiting my parents last weekend. 74 and 73 years old. Apparently they've started watching Hart of Dixie and like it. Not exactly the target demo for this show or the CW I would imagine.

the how do you explain:

the vampire diaries now on its 3rd
the secret circle 1st season
supernatural now on it's 7th season

and all of those are awesome!!

Thanks. I was kind of scratching my head, because last time I checked Five-0 was in the weekly Top 25.

He did explain it. Low ratings on the CW are not as fatal as they would be on, say, CBS.

All of these shows would have been cancelled after 2 episodes on any other network.

H8TR 86ED!

Eenie-meenie-miney-moe WORKS! Don't ever let anyone tell you different.

 

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

That's not a surprise. I should have said earlier that H8R is the one CW show that was in real danger of early cancellation (although I thought their overall weak position would keep it on the air longer than Charlie's Angels on ABC and How to Be a Gentleman on CBS). It's the CW's scripted shows that are unlikely to fall too early given their lack of replacements. The fact that they're going to use H8R's timeslot for Ringer reruns to try to build up an audience backs that up.

 

[Temis the Vorta]

Predictions don't count after the fact.

When's round three?

 

[Captain Craig]

Darn, a lame reality show concept canned. H8 that.

Next round starts when? And really I can't believe HTBAG didn't also get in on round 2.

Playboy Club and Free Agents have been nixed.

I saw the English Free Agents last week and it was fabulous and completely different.
