Modern Family (expected) to end at Season 10. So, that'll be Spring 2019.
Not too shocking. I was guessing it would end around there. I figured that it was probably getting more expensive to continue the show though and that would be the main factor along with dwindling storylines. It had a good run
He's also the main character of the Days Gone video game
They had to know that it's coming, but between losing The Middle and this, that's two solid cornerstones they're down.
I suppose The Goldbergs is solid and will probably be their marquee comedy along with Speechless and Black-ish now.
I believe that Modern Family has finally reached that point where it's production costs now outweigh the sizeable profit it makes for the studio.
Still, ten years of episodes are going to bring in hundreds of millions of dollars for Fox in licensing.
Bring on the Married With Children revival in the Fall of 2019!
I can't imagine how a show like that would survive this day and age.
Good idea to have an ending date, and hopefully before they have to add another kid into the mix...
has Mark Pellegrino ever played a good guy? Is such a thing even possible? The dude just looks like a creep, I mean no offense to the guy lol
Quantico. Well, aside from dating his son's ex who also works for him in the FBI.

Jacob was kind of good, outside of his Ben troll.
He may have been good in Mulholland Drive, maybe they all deserved it, especially vacuum guy.
A bunch of stuff got renewed at TCA, including Greenleaf. I'm stuck on mobile for a while so can't be bothered to post a list with links. I tried, failed, and as we all know; if you fail once you don't ever try again.
On a mostly unrelated note: it's cute how Sony are still trying to make Crackle a thing.

Wasn't there some 90s spinoff of the Goldbergs coming, or did I just imagine that.

Wow really? I figured we were ready for kids to dress up in trenchcoats and do slow motion moves and call each other Morpheus for 20 minutes. lol
I always feel like I'm too slow to watch them and miss out. I set guestbook in the DVR so I should be good. I might just start watching Wrecked without catching up on the episodes

Pellegrino was overall a good guy in Lost, which is probably where most people first saw him.
Edit: Yeah, outside of that one, "What about you?" line to Ben. Which is still one of my favorite line readings in television.
pretty sure the first time people saw him was as Lucifer in Supernatural

Shameless is back on November 5th. Just in the nick of time so I can put it on my top 10 once Ratsky does the 2017 thread.
Not sure anything else Showtime is making the list, except Twin Peaks as one of my three fails of course.

Wow catching up on this season of Face Off and they basically had a Last of Us challenge with Druckman as a guest judge.

This episode of Mary Tyler Moore... Mary joins a club that doesn't let Jews in and that's considered the big "issue" episode. You even hear the audience make the gaspy-groany "shock" noise that audiences make whenever someone says something controversial.
It's kind of quaint, considering where we are now.
(Meanwhile there's only been one black character on the show so far, after 30+ episodes)

)Convenient- I need to complain about Crackle. Bored, so I thought I would give StartUp a shot. I open the PS4 app and the first thing I see is this obnoxious guy doing promos at a volume far louder than everything else. I then try to find StartUp and it's like a four step process. The app crashes while I'm watching, so I restart. Turns out I can't go to the individual part of the episode I was on. I have to FF, which takes quite a bit of time even at 16x. Just a poorly designed POS.
I kinda liked the pilot, but no show is worth dealing with such a shitty app.

That can't be a good sign. Bad month for standup comics between Seeso imploding and @midnight ending.

Laugh Out Loud! just launched earlier this month, so maybe they can pick up all of Seeso's dead projects?

Why doesn't Netflix just buy all that stuff.

It doesn't matter who they hire unless they fire Chris Carter, or at least keep his ass away from a keyboard.
He was excellent in Being Human as well.

listen to the mad man
Crackle has a few decent shows. Art of More isn't bad. Comedians in Cars is good. StartUp was OK. Sequestered was surprisingly good. Sports Jeopardy!, obviously, is good. But it's a terrible service with bad app options. Absolutely should not exist, and I can't imagine it's actually delivering value for Sony.

Or when he was Paul in Dexter.
He played Kyra Sedgwick's lawyer for several episode's during The Closer's final season, he was a good guy there.has Mark Pellegrino ever played a good guy? Is such a thing even possible? The dude just looks like a creep, I mean no offense to the guy lol
Season 1 of Dexter in the books. It was... good. Not as good as I remember back in the day obviously, like I said before, there are a lot more "shut your brain off" moments than I seem to recall, but overall, its good. It's fun, Scott C Hall is great, the Icetruck Killer story is great, Deb's cursing is great.
It's still a easy recomendation for people that havent seen it I think. Also:
Season 2 starts off with that FBI dude Lundy, I remember he was cool. And IIRC correctly Season 2 has the
right? What a waste of a character

I really wish they would have ended Shameless at Season 7. Would have been a great series finale.

Please stop. I couldn't even finish the reboot series. Revive Sarah Connor Chronicles so us 10 fans can watch it again.
This is the only revival I want.

S1/2 of Dexter are the GOATs, S3 was pretty good too
I get irrationally upset at the ending of S4
Edit: Bones had 12 seasons?!
