Yes and no. Yes, FX is suffering from a lot of turnover. However, canceling things is a sign of their HEALTH in this current marketplace, as they're willing to admit when something isn't making the metrics work as more nascent cable channels throw good money after bad in their misguided attempts at believing prestige will generate meaningful income and brand loyalty in an era where people no longer have strong connections to channel brands.

Sex&Drugs didn't look the least bit interesting to me. These Denis Leary projects always have the air of him trying to prop himself to be the hero and center of attention. Adam Sandler does the same thing. They get to play the cool guy, the one with the hot girlfriend for some reason, the alpha male among all their buddies, etc. I actually dug the dude before Rescue Me, but now I'm sufficiently burnt out on him. #EndRant
I'm glad FX is thinning out the shows that aren't working.

Hawkeye, McDreamy, Cuddy, Carter and Turk are back!

Legion will fix everything!
Plus they'll always have Landgraf and his awesome TV industry breakdowns.

Oh damn it. I didn't like it, but after how the finale resolved almost nothing I thought we'd be getting at least one more season.
He is doing the new Bridget Jones, so we can see if he should do more.
He was good in Flypaper.

He was! I thought I was the only one that watched that movie.

Kinda works as a dark ending imo.

Yeah, I guess. However, I was expecting a dark ending even if we got one last season.

Strong rumors of it getting picked up by Hulu or the like. I really hope so, I'm going to miss that show/setting on tv.
Yeah, there was nothing remotely interesting about that pilot.

Yeah, I'm updating my race to first cancellation. It's this or Speechless.
Son of Zorn was super disappointing. I was hoping for even just a chuckle. No chuckles were had.
I think you're on to something there. It jumped away from the actual interesting part way too quickly, basically the first minute.
That's true. They might just air the finished episodes but scrap those that are incomplete.

I didn't realize it had aired already. It looked really stupid, though.
Hell they could have done two different styles of animation. Old he-man style and something like king of the hill for the regular people.
They just showed the pilot as a preview last night

I didn't realize Paranormal Witness wasn't cancelled, or that it had at least returned. I enjoy watching those shows, because that topic fascinates me. But it's likely fake.
I guess Space started it late, as Syfy (US only) is almost done the season. Space is just on episode 3 this week.

I miss Hunted. Really wish it had gotten a second go.

That was a pretty disappointing pilot. I'm holding onto a small shard of hope the show improves, but it is unlikely.
I like your idea infinitely more than what I watched!

What if the characters from Brooklyn 99 turned into cartoons and did a crossover with Zorn?

Yeah, what happened to the second season of Hunted / reboot / spinoff with Sam Hunter?
Is was supposed to be a miniseries of 4 hours or something like that.

Officially cancelled.
PREDICTIONS.
- Given its huge success on Facebook This Is Us will absolutely crush it for NBC this season.
- Lethal Weapon will surprise people. Whether it's positively or negatively I'm not sure but it will.
- Rob Lowe's (despite his hilarious roast) debut in Code Black won't make any difference to the ailing show.
- Despite my love for the first season of Scream Queens the second season won't get above a 1.0 in the demo.
- And The Exorcist will absolutely shit the bed and then jump out of the window for Fox in its Friday night slot.
Yowser. And to think that there was a time when Cinemax thought they could overtake Starz and Showtime with their scripted output.
I'll definitely check this out at some point given how much I loved the (earlier) seasons of Banshee but those numbers are awful even if they are marginally better than Outcast.
I hope Cinemax stick with their scripted output.

Wow. When Calls the Heart is amazing.

The strange thing about this is that they're advertising it as being on at 8 p.m., which is when I thought Adult Swim started.
Yet it's still branded Cartoon Network.
