And the Next Cancelled Show is...

[Mr Light]

Speaking of cancelled shows... CBS is airing two new episodes of The Millers and two new episodes of The McCarthys on Saturday July 4th.

I just love it when a network airs new episodes of a cancelled show on a massive holiday. It's like the ultimate F.U. Didn't they do that to Arrested Development?

People should just be happy they are showing them at all.

AD The Bible Continues canceled

That's very disappointing, as I found it was the BEST SHOW of the 2014-2015 season (I already have the Blu-Ray pre-ordered from Amazon). It was the one show where I actually wanted to see the next episode each week.

AD The Bible Continues canceled

and


American Odyssey Cancelled

Not surprised about either of these. American Odyssey was at best a mini-series. There's simply not enough there to string it out into a series.

Teaches me not to delete the Season Passes too early.

They're airing more episodes of both shows this coming Saturday as well. I forgot to set my DVR hopefully it's on the VOD service...

No. The final truncated third season of Arrested Development concluded with the final four episodes of the season (and series) airing in a four-hour block on a Friday night.

I only remember this because I purposely stayed home that night to see the final four episodes, and summarily fell asleep, missing all of them except the finale.

God it sounds like shows are popping out like Pez these days. Why would I want to get into TV today to have it pulled?

I'm learning to balance my investment/attachment to new shows. If I accept that the TV show is probably going to be a mini-series at best, then I can enjoy it without expecting it to be more than it is.

You might want to become a Cord Cutter then. Ditch the traditional method of getting your TV, and go with another option:

An advantage to watching shows on Netflix is that you wouldn't get a chance to get into the series until the season ended and possibly the word came down as to whether or not it was renewed. Most shows don't hit Netflix until a year after the season premiere. Of course, you do have to avoid spoilers, though. And hope that shows you were interested in do come to Netflix.

Give it three days.

The Comedians (FX)

Da Vinci's Demons (Starz)

Lilyhammer (Netflix)

 

[Guy Gardener]

The Comedians was trying.

Da Vinci's Demons is superb, but expensive and unwieldly. "Deciding" to "finish" their story after the completion of the season that has not begun airing is less failure, rather than setting a finish line to meet.

 

[Mr Light]

The Comedians was cancelled?! I liked that show.

 

[shivkala]

I would have watched a second season of "The Comedians," but in a way, I'm kind of glad I don't have to. It's not that it wasn't good, but I don't know that they could have kept it up for another season. I felt the Billy/Josh character arc had run its course. And with the way it ended, it's easy to imagine that "in-show" FX cancelled it due to Denis' death and the belief that Kristen manipulated the situation to get a better air time for the show.
