If I came in here to hypothetically say that I want Orphan Black to be canceled, what would your reply be?
 
Great thread, lol at the list of previous titles.

I can't wait for the fall season to start. There's almost nothing to watch this week.

If I came in here to hypothetically say that I want Orphan Black to be canceled, what would your reply be?

Congrats on the awful taste.
 
How much would NBC pay for a Seinfeld revival?

Thanks for doing this, Sober! And I'll maybe pop in every once in a while, but I'm really trying not to engage with TV GAF as much anymore.
Will you at the very least come by and tell us what we get wrong about the television industry that we get wrong? I always appreciate it when you come into threads and lay the smack down.

Has anyone heard any early buzz about that new Wesley Snipes NBC show, The Player? I kinda want to give it a shot, but have a feeling it will be canned by E4

Aside from Constantine, nothing I watched got cancelled without an ending. That is why I call a good year. The Mentalist, Falling Skies, Mad Men and The Newsroom
 
I'm just here to see Scream Queens renewed.

For four seasons and a movie.

Prior to the airing of the pilot.

I'll be watching but I'm already preemptively annoyed with Scream Queens because the last thing I need is another show to DVR on Tuesday nights. The Flash, iZombie, Agents of Shield, Manhattan, Bastard Executioner, Frontline and Scream Queens? That's like a Sunday amount of shows. I can already feel my eyes glazing over.

A few shows that I am predicting to be cancelled during the 2015-2016 season. I could end up being wrong on all of these, but whatever.

Dr. Ken (ABC) *New series* - First off, the pilot hasn't been receiving positive reviews. The St. Louis Post dispatch gave it a 37 out of 100 on Metacritic. The critics at TV.com are also calling it an incredibly bland comedy. In addition, airing on Friday nights is going to hurt Dr. Ken's chances of survival. We've seen plenty of ABC Comedies air on Friday nights like "Cristela", "The Nightbors" and "Malibu Country" -- and they were all cancelled.

Sleepy Hollow (FOX) - Season 1's ratings eroded over the course of the season, and season 2 reached new lows in the ratings. I'm expecting season 3 to continue that trend, reaching even more new lows in its new timeslot on Thursday nights. Fox producers have said that Season 3 will be more procedural/episodic, and it'll be interesting to see if that helps or hurts the ratings. My money is on the latter, but I guess we'll see how things play out. If Season 3 pulls in low ratings, the only reason I can see Fox keeping this show alive for a fourth season is for syndication purposes. They may want to get it to approximately 80 episodes for syndication as soon as possible before the show burns out. (That's where the real money is).

Grandfathered (FOX) *New series*- Over the past couple of years, Fox hasn't found much success with live action sitcoms on Tuesday nights. I think The Muppets, The Flash, The Voice, and Fresh off the Boat will completely overshadow this show on Tuesday nights.

Supergirl (CBS) *New series* - For the male demographics, Supergirl is competing against Gotham, Monday Night Football, and WWE Monday Night Raw. For the female demographics, it is competing against NBC's The Voice and ABC's Dancing with the Stars. Supergirl is under a ton of pressure because it's an expensive show to produce, which means CBS will have super high expectations when it comes to ratings. The pilot for Supergirl was estimated to have cost CBS around $14 million, and Greg Belanti says the show will have a much bigger budget than The Flash and Arrow. CBS's Two Broke Girls was pulling 7.92 million viewers on Monday nights back in November 2014. Can Supergirl, a more expensive show to produce, pull similar ratings that will please CBS executives? I guess I have my doubts, but I hope Supergirl will be very successful.

Still sad about Forever it was a nice fun show perfect for getting home from work putting feet up and chilling with a cup of tea.

It would be great if a difference was made between shows being cancelled with no ending (i.e. the story is just left in limbo) and shows were the writers were able to write in some sort of closure. It's extremely annoying if you start watching one of the former without knowing.
 

Aiii

So not worth it

"Cancelled or Ending" is the subheader you are looking for.

For those that are wondering where ivy is, yes, it's American Gods. He has talked about it on his Twitter.

Man, seeing Selfie on the banner hurt a lot. They killed it in the middle of a fantastic run of episodes, it would've rocked.
It sits beside Trophy Wife as a great series with terrible name.

I loved the first season, but I agree that Sleepy Hollow will be die this year. It's nearly impossible to fix the show at this time.

Supergirl will be on the level of CW shows, I don't know if that's enough for the network, but I'm very optimistic after the fun pilot. I think people will watch just for the cheery nature of the main character.

Grats, Ivy!

I've read the book ages ago and the only thing that was exciting enough for my teenage self was the graphic sex scenes, so that's that.
 
Congrats on the sweet gig, ivy!

I'm excited to see what Fuller does with American Gods. I love Neil Gaiman, but quite honestly, American Gods isn't among my favorite Gaiman works.

That said, I think Fuller is more than capable of turning it into a show that's truly great.

I'll have to give it a re-read before the show debuts. Maybe I'll like it better the second time around.

I'm really enjoying the people missing Selfie while ignoring A to Z. :lol
I liked it. It wasn't as good as Selfie, but the actors were charming and I hope they will get something better down the road.
It also had more episodes, they kinda did end it in a way, while Selfie was suddenly murdered
