Quit Cancelling My Shows!!

First I read that NBC wasn't going to pick up The Contender for a second season, but this didn't surprise me. As good of a show that it is (and it is), I don't know how well it would play a second time.

But today I just read that Joan of Arcadia is being cancelled! I know that ratings were down, but to replace it with a Jennifer Love Hewitt show where she talks to ghosts? C'mon, now. Joan was just getting into a storyline for the next season with a major conflict that looked to be very interesting. Guess I'm going to have to rent the first season from Netflix (since I only started watching this season).

What's next, Buffy the Vampire Slayer?!

Oh, nevermind.

I'm glad I'm not the only one disappointed by JoA cancellation. I think you'll enjoy the first season even more. Which will just make you more irritated with the cancelation.

I'm really put out by ABC cancelling 'Eyes' after only 3 episodes. That show had such potential and was so fun. But they renewed 'The Bachelor?!'

Stupid network executives.
